You don't use 3ds Max to skin for the pc. You first make the skin in photoshop or paintshop pro and save them as a "*.dds". Then you inject the skin using Halo Map Tools.

Let me say that again. You don't need 3ds Max for skinning. Photoshop/ Painshop Pro works alot easier. You need a plugin to save as a *.dds and you can use google.com<(great website) to find the plugin.

if you want to edit a pc map, Download TheGhost's tag set and edit it. If you want to mod Halo PC models, you have to use the program Milkshape if i believe so.

Debugger: someone who needs to learn to spell and use proper grammar... also, people who type more than 3 words in all caps are the true noobs of the internet.
Babel Fish and CKY2K: thanks, sorry i kept on asking about skinning... i kept accidently typing that when i only had questions about modeling left over.
and btw, my question wasnt as much about skinning as it was modeling. thanks for the people who just helped me, and no thx to debugger who acts like he owns the place even though he only has 46 posts...
