I just swapped the collision models of the marines to something that can't be destroyed like a warthog or an assault rifle or a medkit. Using the Halo Map Tools of course.
oh, so thats how you do it. okay i'll have to download the halo map tools later today. thanks for the help.
Yeah, I think that in the Halo Map Tools, in the Biped section there should be a "Default Team" section that allows you to change the sides for the AI - I'm not 100% sure though, you might want to go over at www.halomods.com forum to ask it; they know everything.
And yeah, it's annoying that Halo 2 has two kinds of protections from what I've heard; the DEP and then it's own cheat prevention software... Good luck though, you might want to ask Caliber how he did it.
thanks for the info.
