This is a tut. on how to make a golden pistol. Although, it can be applied to other guns as well. After you have done the mod, some little parts on other guns and vehicles may be gold too.
*** pistol will be slightly gold in all levels but all gold in this one!

0)(lol) open up HMT and then open any level.

1) Find
characters\cyborg\bitmaps\cubemap mirror surface
and click save texture.

2)Now scroll down to
weapons\pistol\bitmaps\pistol cubemap
and save the texture.

3)Now, after you have saved the texture, click inject texture.

4)Find the
characters\cyborg\bitmaps\cubemap mirror surface
texture that you saved before and choose that one.

5)next, in the bitmap menu thing, scroll down just a little to
weapons\pistol\fp\bitmaps\pistol
select it

6)save the texture

7) inject the
characters\cyborg\bitmaps\cubemap mirror surface
texture that you saved before

It should prompt you with something,... just click yes or whatever the affirmitive option is.

9) Now your pistol should be all gold!

Optional: make it like the james bond golden gun (damage wise)

10) Close the Bitmaps selection thing and go to
[Jpt!] Damage

11)In
[Jpt!] Damage
find
weapons\pistol\bullet

12) just make the damage amnts. really high.

13)for fun you can put the force really high!

14)done

Pretty cool

thnx for the tutorial, now make one for vehicles.

Careful with the tutorial.. if your gunna do this to other weapons too, make sure you save their bitmaps or *gulp* the bitmaps will never be the same again. yes ive tried, and ive been forced to reinstall halo because after replacing the map file with a backup, it leaves behind a small band of gold that is still there.. although it gives the banshee a small splash of gold... which is pretty nice......

(SORRY FOR BUMPING! EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ONLY FOR A FEW DAYS!)

I think your aloud to bump in the tutorial section.

This might be bumping sorry if it is but i dont see why you dont simppely extract the bitmap and make it gold....

Because theres some people who don't know how/ don't have photoshop.

Don't bump tutorials unless you have something productive to add to it.
