Is it possible to get master chief from halo 2 and put him in 3D Studio, then change his body in some way, and put him back in halo 2?

It is possible, but when you reinject him, im pretty sure the annimations screw up. What you do is find his mode in entity and then go up to the + in the top right corner. Then hit extract mesh and then pick the format you want. I also think 3ds Max has problems with .obj's.

well basically, when you extract his obj it outputs it in its most basic shape. think that there are invisble bones in his body. If you reinject something try and get it to fit inside his body in its current shape and then reinject it. That would basically make a new biped. It would be hard for the animations to work properly with the bopied but as long as it fits within the master chief model or atleaset pretty close the animations should work on it but they may not be pretty.

Good Luck.

Well the unicycle chief would be perfectly possible. Considering nothing would move...

It would be cool looking and you would be able to move around the map. But there would be no animation what so ever on the chief or unicycle. I suppose you could try making the unicycle a actual vehicle and theat would be ALOT easier.

Good Luck!

i forgot all about the unicycle. i still have the model of it even though it still needs skinned. And im pretty sure i can get it moving somewhat right even though the unicycle will technicly be a warhog.
