Switching Elites

Post by Scimitarex »

Is it possible to switch the Blue Elite (or Red, or Gold) with the SpecOps (Black) Elite in HMT? I really need to do it, and I need to be able to do it on AOTCR. I am not sure if it's possible but if it is and you can tell me, that'd be great. I've just recently started using HMT so I am still trying to figure some things out.

Thanks,
>Scim

P.S. Also, is it possible to disable the Invisible Elite's camoflauge? I've never seen that done before, but maybe I missed it and someone's already done it.

XLNC, give him a break. at least he's not demanding like most noobs... *cough cough*

anyway, I checked HMT, and I dont think its possible... it seems to be with grunts and jackals tho

and as for the invisibility... Im pretty sure its possible but Ill bet its difficult...

Hehe, I predicted this would happen. He's actually a good friend of mine. He needed shots of Spec Ops Elites, and I already got it for him. Just thought I would pull his leg for a bit.

And about the swapping, you'd have to mess around with the Actor Variant in HMT3. I've been able to swap between blue, red, gold, special, and camo elites so far. Haven't been able to do black spec ops yet, but I haven't really tried.

Actor Variant is where you can get specific about the Bipeds. You have Elite major (red), Elite Minor (blue), Special Ops Elite (light blue), Special Ops Elite Commander (Gold), and Camoflauge Special Elite (invisible).

What's cooler is that there is even variations on which weapons they hold. Gold elites for example have plasma swords, plasma rifles or needlers I think.

Why did you even bump old topic just for the sole purpose of annoying people?

You shouldn't have posted so soon in two posts, you edit your old one's.

And yes, your still an ass.

It's true. People don't get smarter as they post stuff. Especially if the things they post have no value. And what if someone who already generally knows what they're doing shows up new to the forum? Everyone assumes they're idiots, for no reason. I'll admit that some of them are idiots, but it's the assumption that's wrong. Assuming XLNC is the same XLNC from over at HBO, he provides some beautiful HUDless screenshots of the game for us. I'm not saying he's an expert, but as I'm typing his post count is just 5, and he's certainly not stupid. That's just an example.
