If i were to make a warthog skinning "business" do you think it would work. I also considered doing weapons. I will probably charge a minimal fee (??price??). I do good jobs on warthogs and weapons. I will probably put pics up in the skinning section. I will probably also put the "ad" in my sig.

Do you think this will work?

ok you can skin, which is awsome, im not trying to insult you here but people just wont pay for skins, they will go to someone else or try skinning out for themselves, it would be cool if this worked out but it just might not.

Close your eyes.......imagine your a n00b 1337. Would you pay $2.50 or $5.00 for a sweet warthog?

You actualy cant sell skins. Your basicly selling parts of a copywrited game. Its part of bungies IP.

That's what I would think. It's like mods. You can't distribute the whole .map file, because it's Bungies, even if it was modified. You'd need to create a patch for the mods you have in it. You would somehow need to create a patch that applies those skins for it to be legal, I believe.

just patch the bitmaps.map whenever you make a skin and tell them to patch up thier bitmaps.map file and youll be set :D.

I kind of get what your saying. :? . what i was going to do was make the dds.file. then attach it to an email then they can open there shared.map and then inject my dds. file into theres.

no what i mean is ok, you make the skin, you put it on a level in hmt, then close hmt and make a patch of a map in the halo maps folder, its called "bitmaps.map" and all they have to do is apply the patch to thier bitmaps.map map and they will have the skin.
