ok hopefully this is the right forum unlike last time but i have
a few questions from a halo modding rookie.
1) is it possible to take for eg the hanger from the pillar of autumn and use it in 3dsMAX6
2) how do i make it loke a multiplayer level so i can explore?
3) how do i get the pelican textures so i can use on a model i found on turbosquid and the other skins and b able to use in a image editiing program(eg Photoshop)
4)what do i need to do things to the game other than halopc and haloce??

i think thats all my questions for now

It is possible, but you would have to find a way to export it. You can use HMT to export a section of the first level, like they did with AOTC. I've also heard that you can use sparkedit, but I never use that anymore.

2) how do i make it loke a multiplayer level so i can explore?

What?

3) how do i get the pelican textures so i can use on a model i found on turbosquid and the other skins and b able to use in a image editiing program(eg Photoshop)

Again, use HMT. Go into the Bitm (bitmaps) section and click on a skin. The option to export is on the right. They export as .dds files, so you will have to either use the photoshop plug-in or find another way to open them.

4)what do i need to do things to the game other than halopc and haloce??

You have to decide which you want to mod, PC or CE. THen, go find the apropriate tools and programs for it.
