So i'm trying to do this And i'm trying to make it a vehicle, instead of that one that is an actor_variant. I heard the only way to give vehicles active camo was with a glitch with HMT where you copy the vehicle meta and past it in an item collections place. I have HMT v3.5 i have .NET framework v1.1 and v2.0 I have the halo maps version converter and HMT used to work just fine. But now when i try to open it it says application has generated an exception that could not be handled. I've re-downloaded it and reinstalled .NET framework. Still not working. Could someone tell me what to do to get it working?

I thought eschaton was only for mac? i don't have a mac, and don't really want one.
E: Found a windows download. Now how do i switch a Vehicle for an Item_Collection? Edited by grunt_eater on Mar 31, 2012 at 11:51 PM

No, i mean, I've opened the map and can select all of the tags and everything, i'm just curious as to how i'm supposed to switch them. It's not like there's a meta for me to copy. I can switch some dependencies, but i can't figure out how to swap a vehicle for an item_collection.

Play around, it's in that dependency swapper or something. Haven't used eschaton since 2006

No, you don't use copy paste, you use the dependency swapper to swap the type of tag to another tag.
EDIT: If I had halo ce installed with HEK and eschaton, I would help, but I don't have them installed. If what I said above is false, then ignore it. Edited by XlzQwerty1 on Apr 1, 2012 at 10:26 AM

Okay. How do i select a vehicle tag in the dependency swapper? Where is the dependency swapper? how do i swap the dependency of a vehicle to an item collection? I don't know this program, so i'm trying to learn and i'm sorry i'm such a noob.

Maybe try googling it. I've seriously forgot all about eschaton layout and stuff.

Only thing i'm finding is basic, projectile swapping. And everything i'm seeing is saying to select the weapon tag then in reference swapper selecting the projectile. the problem is i can't select a tag that contains the vehicle, because it is the tag that contains everything. This is the problem i'm having. Does anyone know how to do things like this is eschaton?
