BIPD changing is on the insolence forums (dont know the link)

To shoot an Elite out of a gun, Open Dothalo, Open the map, Select a gun, (magnum for example), Open the dependancies window, click Proj, and change it to Bipd, then where it says NULL, make that Elite_mp.

I had the same problem when I had my shotgun shoot plasmas. It helps if you just throw that map out and restart. I think it was caused by making the shots shoot too many plasma grenades.
