Custom Skins on Custom Maps? Need Help Bad!!!

Post by sniperkid »

Is it possible to put custom hog skins on custom maps because me and my friend are building a map and im skinning the hog he tuned the physics for and he would like it to have a custom skin just wondering if this could be done or not?

no....for like ce maps...yeah i think you can...first, extract the warthog.dds and edit it. then you just have to convert the .dds into a .tif then use tool.exe to convert it into a .bitmap and then replace the warthog .bitmap tag with that one...

*i think* correct me if i am wrong

This might be possible. Just extract the warthog .dds from Halo PC, change it into a .tif file, create a bitmap tag using tool, and then replace the old warthog bitmap tag with yours and that's it.

You know, what apparently Burninator said already.
