CE - PC content

I got bored and decided to make a tutorial on how to take Halo CE content and transfer it to Halo PC, as I noticed there isn't any tutorials following recent methods. Hopefully this will clear up some confusion amongst newer modders as well.
In this tutorial I'm transferring a weapon, however, you may follow the steps using something else and it should work just fine.

Some notes:
If you get corrupt bitmaps, try messing with settings in harbinger, if not that, make sure everything was pmi'd correctly/swapped correctly.
Any further questions can be posted here.
Also, if I took any wrong steps in the tutorial, notify me and I will fix it >_>

Well , Good one , but Andrew released such tutorial once. It might be deleted cause it was against the rules , and also this is not taking but ripping
...Anyway I found a way to convert bitmaps from CE to PC a long time ago, and there is no way if you don't have HCE and HEK.

so maybe we should not do CE-PC if it's ripping?

Yes , but unless you have permission from the HCE Tags creator. If you have permission to convert and use it in mods , then it's legally. I don't even say modding this version of Halo is legal , but as you see we do it, so before you convert something go ask for permission.

Erm, you can get bitmaps by using C#MT, that was discovered back when the first CE>Mac conversions were done.

Or just copy the CE map and name the copy bitmaps.map maybe?

and i am gona have to agree.
Modfox is right, and "internalized bitmaps" is not a disproof, it is the reason you do it (read: name ce map bitmaps.map) in the first place.

In my experience Halo for Mac can sometimes not take that too kindly. Maybe that is just me.

This isn't ripping if you made the tags yourself.

Lol , you guys really found much easier ways. I actually found this way :
Open your .bitmap tag in guerilla and hit preview bitmaps. From there PrintScreen\Screenshot. Open photoshop or whatever and Then Ctrl+V. Save in the correct format , EOF the texture you will replace and then import.
