im guessing this is for hek, but yes u will, for hek im sure they wont use the regular uvw mapping in max so they will be using custom ones for halo, so im guessing hek will come with an instruction manual on what size everything will need to be, and how to change the uvw map to fit halo correctly, etc. usually id just tell u to unrap the uvs but halo uses a custom kind so it wouldnt work, just get the model knocked out then worry about that later.

No... This isnt for HEK... I know it sounds hard but i've gotton like 1/2 of it done through current models by streching, scaling, and moving! But ya i think getting the model down 1st is a good idea... just planing ahead!
