for one thing, i know from experience you can be a jackal, elite, hunter, etc...and on certain halo 2 levels your secondary color and icon are always random.he is stupid.

Just to let you know, I'd do some research on whoever you are about to call stupid. polar is NOT stupid.

goodbye.

Your opinion sucks. Seriously.

I'm going to get all technical here. Bear with me.

You cannot have a flawlessly working biped selector or randomizer, like the one you are looking for. Why? Because multipeds, like the H2 bipeds, or the Sonic/SuperSonic bipeds, must share a similar bone structure, because they will be using the same animations definitions.

So, let's say you attempt to make a multi-biped with a SPARTAN, Elite, and Grunt. Sure, the model will be randomized, but the Elite and Grunt will look like total crap because they will be forced to used the SPARTAN model's animations. A grunt and elite's bone structure is drastially different than that of a human being, so the bones will be stretched to match the SPARTAN bones. It will not look good. In fact, I think the pile of throwup my cat just made in the kitchen will look sexier than that.

And also, try looking at some of my posts before you call me a moron. I've modded CE for more than 6 months now. You just signed up. I fail to see how I am the moron here.

Good day, sir.

it did make some sense, just very little. Although you do have a point. I guess he was trying to say that he didn't know about p0lar_bear's mapmaking experience (biohalo = YAY) and just assumed that he was an idiot because he was a grunt (by the way Mo: you're a grunt yourself lol).

Anyhoo, it would be cool if it did work but unfortunately, it doesnt

Post count has nothing to do with mapping or modeling skill. I don't have very many posts and I have been here for about 2 years now and I have done much more than some people that just like to post allot.
