Beef Up the Assault Rifle in Halo 1

Now, the Halo 1 assault rifle may be one of the greatest weapons of all time, but sometimes I feel it needs a little more kick. To fix this problem, There are some easy steps to change the sound, reticule, accuracy, damage, and maybe even the look of this gun.

where do you put the brushed metal or th projectile one can you make a video of it

[teddy1998]

so now it's like an automatic sniper?

[ODST»SË«]

That's nice, but still the assault rifle was built for firepower and not accuracy.

[Duct Tape Dude]

Help!!!!!!!! Whenever I try to use it it says Gathering Exception Data! Halo Needs to shut down!!!

[The Daft]

That means you made something excpetional. Like, a ridiculously huge amount of bullets being shot, or some such sillyness. If you follow them exactly and that happens, then I have no idea.....

[Duct Tape Dude]

thanx for tellin me what i did wrong...but how do I undo it?

[The Daft]

Well, go back through and set the numbers you put in to a lower number, or, switch make sure the projectile is indeed the proper one. If none of this works, just erase the first map and replace it with the backup. Then, try this instructable again.

[Duct Tape Dude]

THANKS! i figured it out, but what was the original META for the assault rifle bullets?

[The Daft]

I'm not certain of the numbers, but I know that you can find some stock packs online to inject into the game. Try googling "Halo filefront", and browse around that website. I'm sure its there.

[Duct Tape Dude]

Thanks! I really needed the help! everythings back to normal!!!

[The Daft]

=D

In step 3... Is... is that a CMG grunt? anyone who plays FoM should recognized the logo.

[The Daft]

I.... I....don't know. In truth, I just found an image from Google. 0.o

[Duct Tape Dude]

Question: Does this work in the Free Trial?

[The Daft]

No reason it shouldn't.... but I'm not sure. I never really mess with trial edition for halo... . I f the data is there, then it'll work. If not.... surprise me with somthing creative. :D

[Landon Sullivan]

Nice. Now you need to make it fire sniper rounds. Or Fuel Rod rounds. That would be interesting.

[bighead5454]

or rockets that would be devastating

[The Daft]

Thats easy- Just swap the Projectile in the Projectile tab to what ever it is you want to shoot. Copy the meta from one and paste it into another, then press save. Check out the Frag Rifle, I made one shoot grenades.

[bighead5454]

i made the warthog turret shoot plasmas and if you throw a frag you throw a spartan

[Landon Sullivan]

O.O You mean Plasma Grenades?

[bighead5454]

and also i need to know how to throw a spartan that you can control imagine throwing like 50 grenade then an army of spartans carrying assualt rifles that shoot rockets

[The Daft]

I dont know how to add AI to a map, search around on halo forums for directions... I stumbled across and found an interesting idea, which was to make the pistol shoot camoflauge...

[bighead5454]

that is interesting hey do you still play halo PC

[The Daft]

on occasion, yes

[bighead5454]

would you like o battle me eveantueally i am always on the server mod testing every now and then

[The Daft]

Sure, why not?

[bighead5454]

ok so how about friday at 6:00 i live in the central time zone of the U.S.A. so you might be able to make that ur time not sure but i live in MOok tell me if ya want any other time

[The Daft]

I wont be able to for a while, i'm pretty busy right now. I'll let you know when I have a chance.

[bighead5454]

ok but make sure not to forget

[bighead5454]

yes it is extremely devastating and useful if you want a pesky vehicle using killer (a guy that uses oly cars to kill) to quit

[Duct Tape Dude]

We're Not Pesky!!!

[bighead5454]

pesky or annoying ur choice

[Kasm279]

They are rather easy to dodge and plasma nade :P

[bighead5454]

true, but not if your sniping

[Kasm279]

If you are sniping you should be far enough away not to get run over :P

[Landon Sullivan]

Okay, it is telling me that,"Controls cannot be displayed, because a supported tag has not been selected." Any tips?
