halo extreme handles the map hosting I would talk to him otherwise I would pm kornman.

please don't make it os

so just because you can't run os that means that he can't make it os?

no i'm saying that not much people have os and os is useless look at how much servers there are every scenes hac came out

umm really are you blind hac didn't make more people make servers it just lets you join servers from versions 1.00ce and 1.09ce that's all and os 3.1 does that to.and I have yet to see how os is useless.give me 1 good reason why its so useless.

Why OS 3.1 is useless:
-Strings.dll need to be original/os version
-NO ONE IS USING ANY OF ITS FEATURES. I have yet to see a release OS map (besides CMT) that uses OS features other than an extended tag size

and what makes HAC any better then?

Lol Licon CAN run os. He just doesn't listen each time we tell him how. I doubt you will ever see significant people playing Yelo maps in the server list, since most people don't seem to be developing for mp anymore. Can anyone tell me the last time a good MP map was released?

strings.dll

simple fix make two folders one containing the halo game with the os strings.dll and one folder with the other strings then make put two shortcuts on the desktop one for os 3.1 and the other for the modified strings for the RA app there you go now you can quickly launch halo os 3.1 when you don't need to do RA's and launch normal halo when you do need to do RA's.

Did you file a bug report to korn? OS checks for changed strings when installing but you should be able to restore whatever ones you want. Kirby does it all the time.

And while I haven't played that map, so I don't know if it's fun or not, it's appears from the pictures it's not from someone very advanced as a developer for this game. OS is for the more advanced devs out there, not the newbie map makers. There are tons of projects that use OS, but they haven't been shown just yet, probably to avoid the crap show this forum usually is.

That's just an annoyance



I just hate to bug people about my problems so I haven't filed a bug report since I'm sure not a whole load of people actually use RAs.
But still I'm not saying OS is crap and it sucks and what not. I'm just saying I don't think it's the 'GOD MODE IT'LL SAVE CE AND BRING IT UP TO MODERN DAY DEVELOPMENT MODS'. I actually plan to make OS exclusive maps with NMT and even my Takedown is using OS for the extended tag space.

Bottom line, guys.

Halo, and this UI, will never be able to support ingame map downloading without a third-party extension that modifies the core game engine mechanics. It's the same deal with how multiplayer map downloading already is. I'm not sure why people can't open a web page and download a file from a link made readily available in the download, but it is unrealistic to expect the moon and the stars right away.

No one ever says that about OS other than Lodex really. And you should file it, Korn has a system set up so he can fix issues with OS. He wouldn't be bothered or annoyed by your bug report.

There's a thread every other week where someone thinks OS can make Halo 3/ODST/4 100% in CE

////end argument on mooseguy's thread

(mooseguy always has the worst threads for arguing)

ANYWAY I'm running OS anyway so if the UI gets an OS upgrade I can play it anyway

I'm afraid I have to step in here. OS isn't crap. It's just not very useful, I share a very similar POV to MattDratt here. Please leave your personal hatred towards me out of the equation when forming logical arguments. I've given you enough reasons, and so have other people, why OS is non-essential and just a nice-to-have. A nice-to-have which only CMT uses, aside from a handful of others who experiment.

well actually my team will have os versions of maps and a few maps that depend on os.

Being an ass is also a sin, looks like I'll see you in hell L28 :-)
Looking forward to having some BBQ and chat about the good old days at Halomaps.

Long Wang, people!
Give him a round of applause :-)

Wow, almost a thousand downloads in a matter of days!
Thanks for the great reception everyone.

Totally insane!!!!!!

Lol, thanks man. xD

Thanks for this release man'.. I love it!.. hoping for more

It crashes my computer every time I try to play. Oh, well... I guess I'll just have to stick to the default UI. It's probably because I have an old computer. If there's any chance you can fix it, here are my specs from DxDiag.exe:

Machine name: HP-PAVILION

Thanks!

I'll look into the issue and see if I can fix it for the next update. Does the game itself crash, or your entire computer? Does it show the UI for a split second, or crash before the menu comes up? I need a bit more detail in what exactly is going on please.

Sure! It displays the image for a split second, then crashes the whole computer. However, I'm fairly certain it is a problem with my computer, as, occasionally, my computer will crash in the middle of a game. I'm not at all sure why it happens. It can happen when I get shot, killed, enter or exit a vehicle, walking, flying, driving, moving of any other sort, or just doing nothing; there's no correlation whatsoever.

Yeah, I'm not sure if there's anything I can do about that; I think te game itself is having issues with your graphics card. If its an old computer, it might be time for an upgrade.

I don't have enough money, :|. I'd get some if my parents and I could afford it, =P. I need money to go to New York, to work (I'm a child actor). It's ironic, isn't it?

What roles / acts do you normally do? If I may ask.

So far I've only done extra work. I've been in the Good Wife, White Collar, a movie called Gods Behaving Badly, and probably a few more. But I went to "boarding school" (rehab, it's a long story), so my agent hasn't come up with any more opportunities. If you don't believe me, here's a little proof. [link removed by admin - off topic]. This is the talent competition I won my contract from. Yeah, it's really pitchy, but apparently I won "unanimously". Probably because every one else went over the time limit, =P. Oh and by the way, this is how slow my computer is. [link removed by admin - off topic]

See ya!

no i acctuly cant run os its because my computer is so crap it can barly handel halo custom edition little own os

mine can only handle it with lowered resolution

you do know that you can turn off all graphical enhancers that os offers right?

Well, your PC still has to deal with other things OS brings to the table, such as a larger amount of polygons.
