what the hell, dude, you are WAY off. you are looking for .obj files, thats a model. look around, someone's site has a pretty good noob tutorial on the subject. maybe molkien or someone.
god i'm a fucktard

.obj refers to the objects in halo (obviously). You have to be careful though and not extract the wrong .obj from halo. If u want the .obj of a warthog go to the Models tab in HMT and click extract. It should extract as a .obj file and if u want to edit it you will have to download gmax at discreet.com. Then u have to download a .obj importer/exporter for gmax since it doesnt come with one. Then after done editing (or modding), import into the same place u extracted the warthog .obj (models tab in HMT) than save the map. Open Halo and ur mod should be there. If not, u did something wrong. If u have problems e-mail me and ill help u.

in my oppinion gmax is better but just to keep ur options open u can also use milkshape, and it has a built in obj importer and exporter, obj is just another file format like .jpeg .bmp .3ds .lwo etc. but bungie uses objs. ull find that under the pc models tab in hmt that the warthog is split up so u have to export which part of the hog u want to mess with, remember never delete verticies and never add anything all u can do is pull verts around.
