I’ve noticed that some questions are reoccuring, spefically how people can view their search results. Results are not automatically loaded, searching and viewing and two entirely different actions and can be done at the same time.

To assist users old and new I’ve knocked up a quick Halo 3 Asset-O-Matic FAQ, this will be updated as and when information becomes pertinent. If you’re struggling to figure something out and it’s not on the FAQ feel free to leave a comment so I can answer your question and add it to the FAQ if appropriate

Halo 3 Asset-O-Matic FAQ

As people have been playing with the newly released Asset-O-Matic BETA I posted last night some common questions and problems have popped up..

You must extract the files from the zip before running the program.. You cannot run the file from zip as it may not be able to access the SQLite DLL and the search results are saved in the application directory, if this is a temp directory then there’s a good chance you won’t be able to find it or it might get deleted!
Once a search is complete the results are not automatically loaded, you must use the Load DB button to open the saved results.
Search results are stored in the application directory and are named gamertag_date_time.h3
Searches do take some time, to scan my game history of 1774 games takes approximately 20 minutes. Leave it running in the background, you can always load up some other search result files to keep you interested
If the staus bar is stuck at Scanning Bungie.net game history… and hasn’t changed after 5 minutes try closing the program and restarting the search
