I got it off suprnova. Or should I say I will have it. I got about 10 min left. Getting some awesome speeds, too. Took a whole 4 hours to get it. Can't wait to bust out! :D
well, i got it, now just one quickie:
In the NFO file it says to extract and burn the cue but how do I extract it to burn it or mount it on alcohol 120%?
it is a bunch of Halo_Combat_Evolved-FLT_flt-halo.001 through .0048 and a Halo_Combat_Evolved-FLT_flt-halo.sfv file. thanks for any help.

their considered a seed when they have 100 percent file obvioulsy if u get the whole whole then your connected to a seed wether you see him or not.
even if there is no seed connected to the tracker at all, it is possible to complete the download. see the part where it says how many distributed copies there are? if it's more than 1.0, that means all of the leechers added up together have at least one complete copy of the file. if they stay connected long enough, they can put their pieces together and create seeds.
you do not have to connect to a seed, to finish the download.
I doubt anyone would post a fake hereQuote:

The only things i have seen people post are incredibly challenging nrg's or iso's that are all fake!!
but I asurr you this is real
99.99999995% of everthing on the bittorrent is real
the bata just didn't work with every ones pc
it didn't on mine
the retail does YAAAA!
nrg & iso * bin/cue & ccd
are what I preffer, you don't even have to burn, just mount on a virtail drive, & even if you need to burn for a friend/back up ect, there in the format to burn
you really shouldn't make broad statments about stuff you don't understand
and @ the othere stupidguy no offence sure your not as stupid as he is
it gave me a warning about how shity my pc is and are you sure you want to play anyway
I said yes and it worked so try it
might get the warning thoe! :P
It took me a little over 6hr's to get, but it's definitely worth it :-)
Much more polished than the beta, and more enjoyable :-)
I've just uploaded a trainer for it on Suprnova.org if anyone's interested in cheating their way through the game (but i'd recommend playing the game without using the trainer first to get a real taste of what the game's like :-) ) :-)
Sniper.
Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas how to fix it?
http://www.uploadit.org/files/290903-dfgdfgdgd.jpg
Doubt it's my comp but here's the spec:
Athlon XP (200x10.5)
NF2 motherboard
Radeon 9700NP (373,300) with Omega drivers

get the first one
then after you install winrar
open the first file and it will give you the bin/cue
as far a mounting it on 120%
should be like deamon tools mount image?
run dxdiag?Quote:

start_>run_>dixdiag_>then enter
see if acceration is on/off should be on
maybe need the newest drivers for you ati readon card
DXDIAG says everything is fine. I think the game is at fault here. I'm running the latest Omega drivers with the 9800 hack. I get 16,600 3DMarks 2001 and 5,570 3DMarks 2003 so it should fly like a bird on my PC.
whats the
click for more info line say?
It just opens the Microsoft DirectX web page. Everything is fully updated on my PC and I definetly don't have any PC related probs though. I was looking forward to this game :( Might have to wait until it's officially released and a patch comes out to play it.
maybe, don't know what your were talking about
Omega drivers with the 9800 hack
try the offical drivers without a hack?
/I don't have that card so if it sounds stupid sorry
this is laggy for me... :(
(1.66 Amd Athalon XP)
Geforce Fx 5200 128 Meg
512 Ram.. why is it still laggy?
You do have DirectX 9.0b installed don't you McNutter? If not then i'd install it if I were you and try again :-)
You've got better spec's than I Monkeee but it play's pretty smooth for me, try making sure the refresh rate is set to as high as your monitor can handle as that might help, and if not then try reducing the resolution to 800x600 (or lower if that's what your already set at) :-)
Sniper.
yea should fly for him
I got a crappy onboard 64 graphix chip
and plays great

cool thanx, I already got winrar, I just didn't realize I could open the file with it. B) thanks much. :D
Yep got DirectX 9.0b. Installed the standard 3.7 drivers but still no joy. Halo appears to be a typical Micro$haft product - crap.
does it work in Multi player
Multiplayer works for me!
SWEEEET! :D :lol:
well i did succesfully play online for a half hour or so it was a server that didnt recquire cd authentication. but it disappeared soon, so can u join any server or what lord soth? what did you do? would be nice to play some more.
Hmmmmm, I only tried the NOCD server...not sure if the others work, though.Quote:

Not likely.
Have you tried loading it in safe mode to see if it will load McNutter? If not then add ...
-safemode
... to the end of the shortcut for the game (it'll look something like "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe -safemode") and see if it load's then and if it does then it's most likely a game setting that's causing the problem.
You might want to go through the readme.rtf file and try out some of the other additional loading command's to see if any of those help :-)
If not, then this could, or could not (which is more than likely given i've not heard of anyone doing it before lol), help...
Try copying the DirectX files directly into the Halo folder so if it's having trouble finding them then it's got a better chance with them right in it's own folder lol
... Hope you manage to get it working :-)
Sniper.
Safemode worked but it was windowed, looked like shit and had no sound. But that gave me an idea to try it in win 98 compatability mode. It works! But performance is piss poor. So Microsofts game has probs with Microsofts operating system - Nice. A lot of people have had the same problem so it aint just me. Thanks for the help lads. Now just need it to work without compatability mode...
Ok, your saying it worked in compatibility mode has given me an idea :-)
Uninstall the game, then copy the setup files to HD (it should install from HD no problem given it's already cracked, if not then just try this directly on the actual file on the CD (or in the image if your installing from CD image file)) and then select the "Setup.exe" file and choose to run that in Windows 98 compatibility mode and install that way, once done it might work without needing to select that option :-)
You're welcome for the help, but sorry it's not been of much use so far :-(
Sniper.
EDIT : I just had a thought!! It working in safemode with graphics but no sound could indicate that it's a audio driver/card problem and not a graphic's driver/card that's cuasing the problem, try running it normally (not in safemode) but with "-nosound" (minus the "'s) added and see if it work's then, if so then it mean's it is audio problem and not graphic.
L0rD_S0tH ohh ok thats what ive been playing too :D thought you meant you can join any server. just got done playing it again they keep putting it up randomly
just saying people who are having trouble with this game the TRAINER is out on suprnova! ;)
I have trouble with almost every PC game (i'm used to the PSX controller lol), hence why I uploaded the trainer onto Suprnova :-)
I tried making one myself using a program I found, but the codes I managed to find would only work at specific section's of the game so I gave up and found the Pizzadox one instead lol :-)
Sniper.
I tried it with -nosound but it still refused to run. Also tried turning off all sound hardware acceleration but it did nout. God dam Micro$haft. It's pretty unplayable even in compatability mode. Plays like it's on a cheap ass card and not a clocked Radeon 9700. Thank fuck I didn't pay for it.
how many servers r there? after all, the games not supposed to be out yet. ;)
only one that we can play on......for now. ;)Quote:

ya. and to top it the server isnt up 24/7 its only up every now and then, somethin u just gotta check
works fine for me on an Athlon XP + Nforce 2 + 512mb + Radeon 9200 Pro 128mb + Catalyst 3.7.Quote:

i'm guessing the error lies somewhere between your keyboard and your chair... ;)
...why do you assume that its a bad game just because it's not working for you? I don't know why i'm even suggesting help for someone who actually believes microsoft products are crap <_<
Have you had any similar error messages with any other games on your system (ever).
No.
Other people have had the same problem so it isn't unique. Everything is freshly installed & up to date on my PC so the problem is with the game not my rig. If it worked on your cheap ass card then lucky you. Thankfully you two never helped - your advice would be as useful as a chocolate tea pot I'm sure.
what a cop-out. if there were any more differences between our systems besides my graphics card from the same company being one generation older (and apparently my PC being set up properly since it runs everything i throw at it), you'd prolly be insulting those too... RATHER THAN FIGURING THE PROBLEM OUT AND FIXING IT BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO LAZY TO DO THAT AND IT'S EASIER TO JUST COMPLAIN ABOUT MICROSOFT AND THE PRICE OF MY GRAPHICS CARD.Quote:

you crybaby. <_<
now go do something constructive, like fix your PC so that it'll run Halo. for instance, you said your graphics card is "clocked." what does that mean? OVERclocked? if so, that could easily cause problems in certain games but not in others.
OK clearly your not listening so I'll spell it out for you. OTHER PEOPLE WITH ATI AND NVIDIA GRAPHICS CARDS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. Check the alt.binaries.comp newsgroup for examples. If the game doesn't even start then stability doesn't enter in the equation and my PC is totally stable by the way.
Dam Micro$haft fanboys everywhere these days :blink:
I doubt its a problem with just ATI cards, the team worked close with nvidia and ATI to get the game working on pc. Probably a similiar configuration / software problem... Do the following so i can see your full pc stats:
Go to DXDIAG (explanation already showed). Click save all information. Open the file you saved it to, and copy&paste (here) all the stuff up to
-------------
Sound Devices
-------------
they probley have a patch in a few day
when it comes out!
so just wait
@3RA1N1AC
thats what I thought too, he was having a conflick with something to the video card
he did to sup it up, he said something like
Omega drivers with the 9800 hack
doesn't sound like the offical drivers, like a "upgread maybe"
but I don't have that card @ not gonna look into it, could care less, I tried to help already
Open the lowest numbered with winrar and you will get a bin and a cue.Quote:

Then burn or mount as you wish.
Is there any chance some people could start seeding the torrent again, i'm stuck on the classic 98% mark. ho hum :angry:
