    Hello, iBotModz. It's been a long time. A long time indeed. lol I haven't been very active in the modding scene lately, but recently, my mind has been working and my thumbs are busy once again, playing Halo 2, and my hands are busy modding Halo 2. Recently, I got my Real Time Halo working again, and I would like any and all who can use RTH to help me out.

    First of all, I want to know what you've tried that didn't work. lol In other words, tell me everything you can think of that can't be done on the fly. I recently played with the sky settings, making fog more dense, changing start distance, and playing with bloom, etc. I used the bloom and fog stuff in my RTH Zanzibar map. My Zanzibar map has the Bulldog Motorcycle in it, but other than that, everything else was done with RTH. Oh, and I forgot about the sky... it's the Warlock sky =P it looks great. However, I uploaded a patch so a friend and I could play it on XLink, but when my friend loaded the map, there was no fog, no bloom, NO BULLDOG *tear tear* but the effect edits on weapons and such still worked fine.

    That's another thing I would like to sort out: why did the patch fail to make those changes??? lol I uploaded the whole map, though, as well.

    Back to RTH. While using RTH, I have done these things successfully:
    The classic cheating mods (I.E. run fast, jump high, easy cheesey)
    Effect editing
    Sky editing
    Shader swapping

    That's all I can think of.
    I would like anyone who has ever used Real Time Halo to post their findings here. I plan on making a mod using NOTHING BUT RTH. And if you would like, you may help me. However, my mod will have specifications: it can't be just random crap done, it has to look good together. I know we've all seen and done mods that are just completely out of sync with the rest of the crap on the map. Well, that's now what I want to do this time.

    If you would like to help me with my project (which I actually intend to complete, this time), PM me your MSN addy, so I can add you on MSN Messenger.

    A message to SmokiestGrunl: a while back, I recall saying I would help you setup RTH on your Xbox, but I never got around to. I'm sorry. If you would still like that help, I'm available to help you. =D Just PM me your addy so we can talk on MSN.

    Thanks in advance to all who contribute to my experimentation. I know Halo 2 is pretty much dead now, but I know there are still many out there who are still live in the H2 modding scene.

    Thanks, it feels good to be back in the Halo 2 modding scene. There's nothin like tearing apart a map and turning it into something new. lol
