Damnit! well i fucking quit again, Goddamn Entity.
Troy you fucked the old meta editor all to hell.
Hopefully grim can fix it.
Why the fuck did you not mention anything was wrong with it, after you fucked it and left it, I was dumb and used it on 3 maps that i have been working on here and there for over 2 years.
Ofcoarse my backup drive took a shit after i currupted the ones in my main modding folder.
Fuuuuck! Entity wont even open the maps now.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I'm assuming you mean within the last 2 updates? I haven't even touched the ME1 code since the cleanup, other than copying Grim's update over. As I've said, ME2 is where I put my focus. It's code is cleaner (which means more reliable), it's faster and has greater flexibility. I can't stand trying to work with the ME1 code (which is why ME2 was born in the first place). Personally I'd prefer to just remove it completely, but I know I would get flack for that. I suppose I'm going to have to dive back into it's code againOgrish wrote:Damnit! well i fucking quit again, Goddamn Entity.

I hope you can fix your maps / find backups. Sorry to hear that they got screwed. If you send me one of your maps, I can see if I can figure out what's wrong and fix it.

Aaaaaaaaah! now my car sterio's fucking up, i cant cruz without the solid thump thump thump.
Now i can hear all noises from the shit that really wrong with my truck.
On a lighter note, sorry if i made you feel like shit Troy, after testing my backup hdd i found it was the external casing that was fucked up, the Hdd still works.
I have recovered my folders with the assets for the mods, and even the most recent patch's of my maps. "pre Entity 2.1.0"
So im not calling it quits after all, i am becoming more organized tho.
Now i have to rebuild my 1200watt amp that pushes my sub,
and im parking my truck until it thumps again.

What is the problem exactly, besides the fact that theres an info stealer virus at work collecting all your personal data while the App is present on your pc.kronosslayer wrote:Fuck halo 2 sound tools...this shit never works for me!![]()
It appears not to be sending the data anywhere, just collecting.

If at all possible, could someone run this thru reflector, edit, and generate a clean version. Reflector is no longer free.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I use Wavepad sound editor, with the codec installed. Im not sure if its the editing program and how its saving, or the length of the injected sound.
I can never seem to get the length right. If the length is too short it will null the remaining sound chunks, but if its too long it truncates the sound clip, so when i hear it in-game, the end is scratchy and corrupt. After the years of modding, ive never been ablt to solve the problem...

Re: The Official Rant Thread
The sound file can be smaller, but not larger, so choose a sound file big enuff to acomidate.
Your problem may be the format extracted/injected.
I noticed when i used the window standerd sound tool, that records/edit/and extracts sounds that my sounds, sounded different in game."faster and higher pitched, so I started using Audicity and it worked a little better, i now use Goldwave and my sounds are the same ingame.
Heres an example: windy to replace one of the main menu sounds, it stops just short so needs to be edited a bit for continuous looping.

Anyways, I am interested in what screwed your maps up. I haven't had a chance to test anything, but was it just general meta edits or specific things (if you know)?

Uh... That sucks man.
=============================================================================
Move to the coast to work and live with my dad.
Figure out how I feel about this girl friend.
Stay in Calgary and work and live with my cousin.
Move back to my moms and work with my brother in law, then move to the coast with him.
So many ropes tied to me, pulling me in all directions: I don't know what the proper move is.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I went out this weekend, my part time Girlfriend was paralytically drunk by 10pm (and well up for it), another mate of mine dared her to do a headstand around 2am (only a drunk would think this was a good idea, she fell over and hurt her back, I had a drunk injured girl to get home and put to bed, but it meant I could go back to the party and get truly wasted, which I did until 4pm.

Second thoughts, no sex for at least a week make this a rant.

Ported my model code into Sunfish, while rewriting the code a bit to make it more readable, and implementing some Sunfish things that make life easier.
In the past few days I have:
In the past few days I have:
- Got exporting to OBJ working for meshes
- Got importing from OBJ working for meshes
- Got loading a Model class (think everything in meta) from a Tag object (think decompiled file)
- Got a Tag object generated from that same Model Class using Soffish structure shenanigans.
