Halo CE Technical / Map Design » can't open campagin maps in Sapian (like a30) Oct 18, 2011 11:21 PM (Total replies: 12)

Quote:
try running compatability mode under WinXP SP2, not SP3. SP2 is considered to be the most stable emulation for running older programs. Plus, I have my HEK running under those settings, and I can run everything fine. Haven't tried compiling maps yet, though.


set Sapian to XP SP2 and as soon as I clicked a30 it instantly said "Sapian for Halo PC stopped working" and then closed itself. and then I tried reripping the tags from a30.map Halo PC file with HEK+ under XP SP2 and then Sapian flipped out (Closed itself) when I opened the newly extracted a30 senerio file.
And this is what debug spit out:

You're library is corrupted, i think.
Reinstall HEK, might be wrong, but I beleive that's the cause.
Some of the tags you extracted must be corrupted.


hmm... funny
if I do that, that will be the 3rd time I've tried it.
so I don't think the 3rd time is going to be a charm on this one.

I want to edit the campagin map "a30", but every time I try to open the a30
senerio it will either exit by itself (rare) or say "Sapian for Halo PC stopped working"
and then closes itself (common). by the way Im using the Halo PC tags extracted with
HEK+ the debug text is below:

I know I used HEK+ to get the files I needed, however don't you need to convert
Halo PC tags to Halo CE tags first?

Halo CE Technical / Map Design » Sapien wont read senerios Oct 8, 2011 10:21 PM (Total replies: 18)

the problem is "The Complete Halo Biped Part 1" and "The Complete Halo Biped Part 2" didn't come with the files that the debug.txt says is missing.

Every time i try to open any Senerio file but Tutorial, Sapien will freeze for 4-10 seconds and then close. and all the Senerio files Ive downloaded have came from this site. so im wondering what am i doing wrong? Or what is my computer doing wrong?

I think it would be cool if someone could a program that would put multiplayer AI bots into multiplayer maps (if your playing LAN/offline) and the game would think your playing againest other people but your really play againest CPU (computer) players. and your could change the computer spartans; Armor Color, and change the difficulty of one or more of the AIs.
