Hey i am new :| ,
Well anyways i believe i do know GvN but that isn't what this is about.
I would like to ask about skinning, as many of you modders know that skinning is quite important in mods and i want to make one myself but the fact that the mod i am working on doesn't have any skins makes me abit 'Depressed' because it's very hard opening every single file and checking out what it is and so i would like to ask what are the file names for the following skins are:
Master Chief
Shotgun
Flamethrower
Sniper Rifle

P.S
I am totally not aware if there is a guide on this already don't flame Plawks :!:

Are you talking about bitmaps?
In that case

Open your map in Eschaton.
Go to bitm and click the carrot
There will be a huge list.
At the top, there will be a tag that says something like Cyborg or something. Click on it. Press "load preview". Extract the image. Edit it, Import it.
Around the bottom, There will be tag names called "shotgun_fp, flamethrower_fp, Sniperrifle_fp" or something like that. It COULD be Mp.
Extract images. Edit, import.

And im not flaming you but...
You really ought to use the "Search button"

Err

Welcome to MGM

Psh, if you want to mod. Check out the Stickies in the Halo Demo section first before asking question. Use the search button. Try to experiment and play around before asking questions here. And try to keep CE off the mods :D



EDIT: This belongs in the Halo Demo section you know?

My god you guys don't read. He's asking for the names of the freakin' bitmap tags. He knows how to view them. ¬_¬

Are you Tic? Ò_Ô Lawl. Anyway..bitmap names..

Master Chief:
characters\cyborg\bitmaps\cyborg

Flamethrower:
weapons\flamethrower\bitmaps\flamethrower

Shotgun:
weapons\shotgun\bitmaps\shotgun

Sniper Rifle:
weapons\sniper rifle\bitmaps\sniper rifle

There you go.
