question: extract all tags from Halo CE #362

Closed vegerot closed 1 year ago

vegerot commented 1 year ago

I am trying to edit a Scenario file in Sapien. To do that I need to extract the scenario tag from the Halo CE crashsite.map. Is there a way to do that in Assembly?

I can see the "extract" options for maps from other Halo games, and I do see the "Dump Full Tag List" option in Halo CE, but I don't see how I can extract the tags the way I want to.

I haven't modded Halo in 15 years so I'd appreciate any help :)

Assembly's extract uses a custom format that is nowhere close to official tag files. Other games have it because its more trivial to import these files back into another map, H1 and H2 not so much. What you want is Invader https://github.com/SnowyMouse/invader which should be able to dump to actual tag files.
