You can just get photoshop and edit the stuff manually

ill walk u through the steps but it probably wont work cuz this is mac v (unless windows has HMT)

1: open HMT
2: open the bitm part (bitmap)
3: go down to characters\cyborg\bitmap\cyborg (i think its that, if not then remove the first cyborg)
4:hit preview then export
5: open ur image editor (heck u dont need photoshop just open paint)
6: Paint all over it with translucentsey stuff heck idk
7: Save as JPEG
8: repeat steps 1-3
9: this time press inject
10: drag ur coloured jpeg and drag it into box
11: then press inject
12: it may crash (dont worry just the app, its just writing on the bitmaps file)
13: drag the files into ur maps folder
14: run halo
and im out

by Andrew_b
wait do you mean how do you change the bitmaps in them?

Hm, I never really tried to change the shaders themselves, although I might make a plugin for some real modding for them.
