Halo Master Chief Retexture

[Quantum Man]

So a while ago I made a topic about how I was going to convert the Halo Master Chief by the crazy modding crew to SA as a ped...well it never happened. So recently I got VC in celebration of the BTTF mod that's in the works, and I decided to get that MC model I've been looking at for the longest time. The model seemed to be quite good, but then once I started walking around with it, I noticed that they slapped their big friggin' logo on the boot of the skin. I then got to work on reviving the mangled sole texture, took me 1 1/2 to 2+ hours perfecting it to make it look right. And when I mean right, I just don't mean slapping together a piece of yak shi*, I took the time to measure it, and recreate exactly what should have been there literally pixel by pixel. I ALSO MADE THE SKIN MC STYLE GREEN. Once I started playing the game with my new texture, I kind of thought that the work on the boot was a waste of time, and that the skin was done great. Then I realized that without the nice boot soles that the skin wouldn't seem as good as it did.

 

So anyway, I put together some screenshots, and the reskin, which I've uploaded to image shack.

would like someone to tell me if the belt on hs torso is supposed to be that colour

installation instructions:

1.download halo player model by the CMC from:

http://www.thegtaplace.com/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=463

2. install the mofo with img tool 2.0 or something. I guess you'd have to delete the player.dff and .txd.

3. save my skin and put it in the skin folder in your vice city directory, now you can choose between the white and green textures

 

 

Just to show you the many layers that I complied

 

 

 

 

notice how the boot is clean? right click and save this beast!

Actually, Post if you save it to your computer so I know how many people try it out.

 

Ok, now it's time for credit:

 

Halo MC original player model and texture by the Crazy Modding Crew (Jay to be specific)

the shade of green was inspired by LeonPlisken's touch up on the halo ped for SA, I thought it was great

Looks great

Just giving credit to the orginal author isn't good enough, you need to get permission from the original author. So that you can release the mod here on GTAF.

 

Until then, I'll remove the download link.

Well, Unfortunatly I'm not a modeler, so I can't do it myself. But there Is a topic on the forums about rigging characters, you could submit the mod into that. Also, on the same post, there was a master chief ped made that was done nicely, you could get that, there are also alternate textures for it on the post as well. Or, If the textures on that one arn't to your liking, the battle damage marks on it could be textured out by me. Then you could use spaceeinteins all in one mod to play as the ped.
