my comment
welcome back man you havent been around in a while!

Haha Yeah, My Skinner ran out on me last time
Hopefully these models will get finished

hey dude

nice now finish it

wow very nice models indeed

wow nice models, that shotgun looks pretty sweet from the distance

these are conversions from the xbox version right?

They are, Many hours of map extraction, Sound and skin ripping and then assembling them into information that a regular PC can understand.

What's that brown stuff haging off of the Elite's face?

Good conversions, I'ma download the pack when it's done.

Haha Its His teeth, By the way, any one want to have a go at animating any one of them? Animating is not my strong point

HOLY F-ING SH**!

That is amazing.

[edit] Found this little guy. He says it all:

Looking good so far.

im one of those people that says halo is a **** fps, but these are very nice models. not that id ever use them though.. i dont think i wanna support such a bad game O_@ *feels the flames coming*

i want the elite as a fade ! nice work as much as I can tell from the screenshot.

Heh.. why not


Once again I call out there for an animator.. This animation stuff really ain't my thing lol.

Your gona have hard time assigning the Marine to the LA skeleton i can say that..

Why is everyone so amazed with a conversion? If you're gonna be amazed, be amazed at Bungie's modelling team.

cuz hes doing a damn good job at converting from xbox

Well if its so easy... why has it not been done before?

Yes there is a whole xbox hacking scene out there, which I am apart of. To get these models, Many people spent months working out how to extract models from a large file ( 50 MB ) by reading Hex codes and file offsets. Not to mention after the parts are extracted they have to go through multiple conversion processes, for example the skins have to be converted from their native xbox format into an 8-bit .bmp for half-life, most of the models even come in 5 or 6 parts with bones missing and skins not placed on. It may sound easy, but its time consuming..

If you want to do a better job sir, I stand aside, you take over

I could convert to the NS animations if you really want me too.

I beginning to get rather good at it.

hey for the laser blade thingy is it possible to make one in each hand? so hes holding 2?

that would be kick **** (butt)

Well I guess it could replace the fade slash attack, So its possible to get it to fit in, But as of right now these models are goin no where without someone to help animate...

Aha just saw Venmoch's post, I will host the models up for him to animate..

Heh

It gives me something to do with Milkshape!

venmoch is my hero

Now am I converting both to be Marines. Because converting the Elite to the Fade Skeleton will cause the "holding arms in a wierd position" problem.

-EDIT- Running Wild, Check your PM's! -EDIT-

y dont u convert the normal Marines instead of the Masterchief

If the mesh is in the file I download then I will.

I only just finished The marine and all his skins, That wasn't included in the download i sent

Wow, really amazing.
Is it possible to relesae the other colour version of Master Cheif?
Becasue wasn't there diffrent colours of him in MP?

Really good job.

why didnt you just use the models from the PC version of Halo?

finally we'll have a REAL mastercheif instead of Mr.Halloween costume wannabe Master. lol./

WOW those models are perfect :o

btw could you extract the assault rifle and shotgun? i hate the 2 that were already made, they look like crap (ugly FA model bleh)
EDIT: and oh yea, release the marine and make the master cheif HA

hes already doing the shotgun you can see it in the pic but the assault rifle ya id like to see that too

the fun i had piecing them together...

i still have the warthog here if anyone wants it

There is something you gotta worry about: This is MAJOR copyright infringement. If your gonna put these out, I'd ask the original modeller, or just the company(Bungie) in general.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isin't a copyright infringement only if you're trying to rake in the $$$green$$$?

i dont think that's it either. I thought it was if'n you said it was your own work, AND tried to sell it. I can see them getting **** for you converting it, but i really dont see the illegality in it.

When the time comes I will e-mail Bungie, However I don't see how ths is any different from using models converted from AvP

As for the rine... He is attached

I am working on extracting the Fp models at the moment.. lets see how they work out..

By the way, I am pretty sure that the in-game engine of Halo tints the master-cheifs skin itelf to create the different colour MC's in there.
