Texture Injection

Post by fr0zt »

Hey, just wondering what program to use to inject .dds files into objects. I've tried HMT 3.5, Dot Halo, and ADI, but I cant figure out how to do it with any of these programs. Thanks!

this will be a simple tutorial (i will be replacing my cyborg (MasterChief) skin...

-open HMT

Image

-click open map file and locate your halo maps file and pick a map (doesn't matter)

Image

-find the texture that you want to replace

Image

-click on inject texture and locate your new skin

Image

-double click on the new skin or click open, you should get a screen that looks like this...

Image

-you may also get a message saying the files size was too big do you wish to update or a message saying file size is too small HMT will update it, just click ok until it says texture is injected sucessfully

-your skin has sucessfully been injected, have fun!

very nice tut, thanks. I just have a problem when trying to load the map, it always says either "file not found" or "not a valid halo map file". I'll take screenshots right now and post them in a few mins.

Edit: also, if this makes a difference, I'm trying to load Halo 2 maps.

I'm thinking maybe there might be different versions of HMT for halo 1, Halo CE, Halo Xbox, and Halo 2 Xbox... Not sure if this is right, but I just downloaded the only HMT I could find... It's version 3.5.. could it be for a dif platform or dif version of Halo?

HMT is for halo1.... Ch2r and DotHalo are for halo2 maps. That is why you get errors.

Dam... so I guess that tut is completely useless to me... Anyone want to explain how to use Dot Halo to inject the .dds files? I've tried as I said before but without success...
