That's awesome! I think a movie would better suit this kind of thing though, lol. Congrats on getting it to work.

i think you would be better oof with the original halo ghost skin as since that onesnot bumpmapped which decreases its look but good job on the damage perumations.

thanks for the feedback guys and if you know how to fix the firing animations then please let me know. and heres a pic of everything you can destroy on the ghost: (you can also destroy both guns but i didn't since the ghost would have exploded)

That looks awesome, sorry I can't help with the firing animations, but they aren't really noticeable...you're talking about the guns moving backwards and forwards when shooting, right?

Decompile the single player ghost and work from there..

So, does that mean it's pseudo regional damage, where, as the Ghosts' health decreases, parts fall off? Or is it true regional damage, as in you can shoot one spot and x part falls off, shoot another and part y falls off?

its true regional damage. like you shoot the right wing then the right wing flys off, you shoot the left wing the left wing flys off. like in halo 2

Agreed, that is awesome. How exactly did you get it to work?

I think he used the flood as a refrence. (You can shoot off their arms) >_>

L33T is right

and its pretty easy once you get the hang of it you just need to make all the parts you want to be destructable seperate objects with regions in max then link everything to the frame and export as .jms file named "_base" (without quotes) then you do the same for the destroyed model and export it as "~damaged" (without quotes) then compile and all but for the collision model you need to have the same exact regions as you had for the base and damaged model. theres a little more you need to edit in the collision so if you need help just pm me.
