Halo update 1.10 to keep server list working
« on: 11 May 2014, 13:34:50 »
Altis just informed me of this: http://halo-fixes.findforum.net/n4-some-details-about-the-internet-lobby-fix
Apperently Bungie is working on a new update which makes use of their own master server list.

This update is currently beta, once it go's final everyone with an official halo 1.09 installation can upgrade to 1.10.
We just need to find a way to get all the Mexicans to update their halo portable edition or what ever they use to play halo.

Anyone with halo portable who can make a guide for the people on how to upgrade to a normal installation?

I was thinking of the following guide:
Step 1: Download Halo Custom Edition from: http://www.xgclan.com/downloads/halocesetup_en_1.00.exe or http://www.gamershell.com/download_5734.shtml
Step 2: Use your Halo: Combat Evolved cd key or get a cd key
Tip you can get a legal key for 10$ these days on ebay or at a game store. (Remember you support the people who made the game and encourage them to keep supporting the Halo Community)
If you are really that young and don't have any money at all, get a shared key by searching on Google ;)

Step 3: Install 1.10 patch by running the haloupdate.exe located in the directory where you installed Halo. (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition)
Step 4: Copy your maps from the halo portable edition maps folder to the maps folder in your halo directory (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps)
Step 5: Install: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=19662 to get the chat to work ingame.

Can someone verify and check it for correctness.
Note: We need to make sure that the halo update is in fact released over the auto update system. (step 3)
Note 2: Once that's done we need to translate this to Spanish and link to this guide on our servers and make a youtube video.

Actually, I have the portable version, and I could make the video, but.. We need our most subscribed youtuber to make sure this message will be delivered to as much people as possible.

Right now, I have 32 subscriber, 200-300 avg. views, which is... to be honest, kinda low.

And I have the mentioned "search for it halo keygen" program, but to download the official Custom edition from halomaps.org is kinda impossible for me, that's why I use the portable one. I'll try out the method later that day, and make sure to share what did I experienced while going on with each step, but I have to make preparations, and have some RL stuff to do before that. ::)

Sounds good, perhaps we should create an XG youtube account?
I don't think it really matters, people will find it on Google and stuff quite easily and if we link to it from multiple halo communities they will find it.

Actually, forget about this day, my net is dying again, changes from hspa to edge every few seconds, making every download to be unfinished, and sometimes not loading pages, so I can't really do anything today.. sorry :(

And I already made a youtube account few months ago named {XG} Extreme Gaming Clan, so we got that going for us, which is nice.

Yes but google punishes duplicate content.
They can however like the video and list it on their page as favorite so subscribers would still know?

Le wild Eagle appears while typing on phone

How about that we make a script, like in the movies, or idk.. like we have three different kind of video, with similar texts, and so on.. It doesn't count as duplicating, so it should be better.
I'll ask Jimmy to make a video too, buuuut...

Selling quality coffee for translating ::)

And the download link and instructions should be in the server message of the day thingie
Of course I'm going to share it on my fb, and unfortunatelly, I ran out all of my ideas :(

Final version of 1.10 patch was just released http://halo-fixes.findforum.net/t36-bungie-officially-releases-patch-110-includes-the-lobby-fix#175
Now it's the time to update servers and wait for HAC2 update I guess (unless you don't use for some reason).

Okay, for the people who have portable please make a guide as soon as possible!
I suggest we make a step by step guide with screenshots and a video, to make it clear to as many people as possible.

The update is going on auto update today and I've just updated all our servers.
Please let me know if there are any issues.

Note: perhaps some people can even provide an update service for the people who can't follow the tutorials? For example charge people 5 dollar for an update service where you patch their halo to the new version by using teamviewer or so.
