well, here goes! (although i've never actually done an invisible vehicles mod, here it is in theory)

1. BACKUP EVERYTHING IN HALO"S MAPS FOLDER!!! if you do not do this, you're going to be screwed when you try and get an un-modded bloodgulch without re-installing.

2. now, open up HMT 3.5 and go into the [bitm] bitmaps tag and find levels/a10/something/something/cryoglass.
we take it's meta offset and paste it into all of, oh lets say, the warthogs bitmaps (vehicles/warthog/etc.)

3. now, we click the handy little black "save" button and test our map!

4. if this is done correctly, you should be able to try and find the warthog, but without luck! (unless you run into it, or course :lol: ) Then, you can drive around in the warthog, but look as if you are floating!

5. download fraps and make a video to show to all of your friends to convince them that you can make master chief be a ghost in halo!
ASPARTAME: in your diet soda and artificial sweeteners. also, it's obviously completely safe. it's not like it will cause tumors or anything. >.>

Also, make sure you put the cyroglass material over the warthog turret too.
