Hi

Before anyone feels the need to slam an apparent n00b, I'm very experienced in modding. I have extensive knowledge and skills at modding GTA3 and VC and therefore feel I can add a great deal to this community. I just have no idea about where everything is in Halo. So before I can horse, I'm going to need someone to point me in the direction of a tutorial that will tell me how to get the texture files and model files, in whatever format they may be out of the cache files, whichever ones they are, and into an editing suite (I use Photoshop 7.0, PSP 8 and 3dsmax 6. I also dabble in zModeller if that helps). I'll no doubt require plug-ins for import/export, and various tools. Also, any known problems you guys frequently come up against would be advantageous, you are the pros at this and suddenly I'm back to being a n00b.

Here's hoping I can contribute...

Thanks...

Whilst waiting for a reply I just got stuck in with HMT3, Hexplorer and a trusty set of offsets. I was needlessly worried. As soon as I get something tasty done, I'll be sure to let you guys know.

Thanks again,

AJ
