converting the sounds are really frustrating, it takes about 20 minutes to convert everything, and you won't know if you did something wrong until AFTER all the sounds are converted, and if you do get an error, you need to convert the sounds all over again! Fun!
i imagine someone will eventually upload all the maps done, converted properly, for us lazy peasants.
OH, and by the way, the order in which you convert things matters. if you convert two maps, and your friend converts 2 maps in different order, you won't be able to play together.
Given some issues going on my end with 'Net Framework error HRESULT 0x800f081e' which is needed for the tool to work. Think i'm just going to wait until someone on here or discord converts it all correctly, then hand it out to my friends. I imagine someone will have it all done in under 12 hours. Really appreciate the devs work in all this.
Shame that Forsaken DLC drops next week for Destiny 2. But i guess i'll be playing both with mates.
Here, a batch file that ports all the Halo 3 MP maps, includes tagtool,
put in ElDewrito\Maps\
put halo 3 from 343n torrent (with the fix, old one had missing info files) in ElDewrito\maps\h3 so it should look like
ElDewrito
----> Maps
---->---------> Bink
---->---------> H3
---->-------->-------> Maps
---->-------->------->---------->Info
OK, i've just spent the past 5 fucking hours trying to get the damned campaign working. Only crashes, refuses to work. I'm done.
So campaign maps load, but they crash as soon as you kill an AI because it's trying to add a score to a non-existent scoreboard.
Good news is that there's a dll that fixes it...bad news is that devs don't have permission to release it.
Until someone makes a similar dll, campaign is a no-go.
I like how I just popped in because of a few new posts and it's like bam Halo 3 campaign in dew.
I really hope this doesn't evaporate before somebody makes an installer and starts passing it around
Can someone post an invitation to the Discord or PM me?

Shows as invalid. That sucks.
How do you load the maps you've concerted?
I don't even have ED installed anymore. rip.
You all realise that the porting code is not finished?
Not even the MOPP porting code for BSP collisions is perfect, youll have parts of maps that you will fall through.
Driving vehicles around on some maps will cause a insta crash if you are using H3X BSPs. Technically shouldn't happen for ODST.
So if anyone is having issues porting audio with the tagtool right
make sure the UseAudioCache is set to the ROOT of your HDD, as files names get so long windows stops doing shit with em.
I am rewriting my batch rip now, since it seem to only work for me and 343N. Try to fix that.
Mopp code conversion's only problem is crashing when driving with a vehicle around some instanced geometry on Warehouse and maybe Sandbox, Zanzibar and Sandtrap are not important.
HO has the same mopps as ODST, same havok version or close enough, while H3 needs a conversion which was pretty easy to pull off, just a few days of digging trough raw data and using the common maps as a huge help.
`
to fix the campaign meta crash you just need to turn off all metagame properties, which can be done by doing the following
Get all the tag indexes for each char
ListTags char
then for each char tag,
edittag <charTag index>
removeblockelements metagameproperties 0 *
savetagchanges
exit
should fix the campaign crash when you kill an enemy.
You can also readd the hud widget and get actual scoring too.
...I'm just going to wait until someone has a complete batch file. This seems all too confusing to me.
When I have some free time I might fudge around with this stuff but I'm really inexperienced and I'm more of a consumer than a developer so maybe I should wait lmao.
it looks like people are already playing proper Halo 3 MP with playable Elites and everything.
I'm assuming the Discord is at capacity, links dont work.
I'll need to find a copy of Halo Online.
If you aren't in a hurry I'll hook you up in about 15 minutes.
I hope I'm doing this correctly.
It's taking ages for it to import all the sp sound tags.
make sure to use UseAudioCache so that if you ever need to re-convert it can use that as a cache rather than re-doing sounds completely every time
Goddammit
I must've done something wrong because whenever I try to load 010_jungle it crashes
yeah I'm just going to wait until all the research is done.
Sorry I have the smallest attention span in existence. About to PM you a link to the OG Halo Online files.
Here's the updater to patch the game, this is the MP ElDewrito, not the new stuff from this week. Either way you need the base files im sending you.
