Remnantmods

I have begun filling the plugins for Alteration, since there is an apparent lack of people willing to do so, or share their progress. I am starting off with Bloc....and once it is done, I will begin WIND and MODE. Heres what I have so far for Bloc....

This appears to be Halo 2's layout copied over... What are you checking this against?

So far these values are the same layout as the H2 ones. It is checked against values based on items that appear in both games, and have the same values within 00.1 or so of length. Once I get someto use this in-game in RTH...we can see if my guess work is correct. Most of What is filled in with the other plugins Alteration came with, also contain copioed over stringid's and guess values.

For the most part, Halo 3 tags have the same if not similar structure to Halo 2 tags. Much can be mapped out by simply comparing the plugins. I've mapped out a few because they were similar. But there are new tags so that makes things difficult. And there are new values in tags so that can create some confusion.
