I saved the biped and uploaded it, then changed the elite to look like a grunt, but... they can only pick up weapons under the pistol category, and cant enter vehicles...what do I have to do? ALSO, I have the prophet chair and would like to drive it. Sure, I could do it the boring way and make the ghost/hog/banshee look like it, but I'd like to know how you can drive the actual chair

ok, to get the grunt to use any weapon you have to make everyweapon think it is a part of the pistol catagory. To do this you have to go into the weapon tag and change two string ids, its something like form and short form. You want these two string ids to match the plasma pistol's sting ids. For the prophet chair you have to change another sting id. Since im at school i cant get too much into detail but there is a group of three sting ids together, the top one is the one that has to be changed, change it to ghost_d.

Yeah in Weap... But isnt it 3 strings?
One will be short form, like BR, RL.
The other will be like 3).Rifle
Or something.
And the other should also be short.

you only want to mess with the animations, not a perfect guntype swap even though i have yet to see that short even effect anything
