NEED HELP URGENTLY!

Post by chalupa »

Im a total noob to modeling weapons

what programs and tools would i need to model a weapon or change a previous weapon in halo 2?

then what programs and tools would i use to apply a skin to it?

can i use HMT to skin halo 2?

ive searched for a long time through tutorials and utilities but im not sure what to do and i would rather have somebody who has done it themself to show me

im guessing i would connect to my xbox with an ethernet cable?

my xfire is doctorchalupa if you can help me

3ds Max or Milkshape to name a few and Entity

Photoshop or Gimp with plugins

No thats Halo 1

Can't help you there....Tutorials always work for me

Yes, through a router though

Please ask Xbox modding Qs at xbox-scene.com.
When you have that done, I suggest following this tut to model.

HMT is for PC.

Ch2r and Dothalo are good programs to use for skinning.

To make your own skins use photoshop or gimp.

Using a router to connect to your xbox is perfect. Using 2 NIC cards work as well.

Exactly. This is the HALO 2 modding forum, not the XBOX modding forum. Xbox modding info is at xbox-scene.com. I understand that you did ask other ?s about Halo 2, but all other types of ?s belong in a different forum.

In other words, do not talk about softmodding your xbox here.
