Okay self-explanatory tutorial, very simple, but follow exactly what it says, ok?

If you guys run into any trouble, or have any questions at all, ask me.
I am also a very good model rigger. So if you want me to do a tutorial on that I would be glad to.
Any rigging questions accepted as well.

Team Halo, i know this sounds trivial, but how do you start off a new texture on a model? I can re-texture models which have a texture already on them but cant start new ones off...

You need to uv-map it before you can texture it. Look up a tutorial.

Its a good day to do what has to be done by me and help my brother to defeat the enemies

Yes, what Aaagreen said. You produce a uvw map using a uvw mapping program, they are simply a layout of all the polygons that allway the texture to be painted on. I would post a tutorial but I use max, and that is not common around here.

Sweet! Grabbing it now! I've been looking for a solution to this for ages...

-=EDIT=-

I tested it out on the MP5N, but whenever I use rotate all to adjust the orientation, it snaps back to the original position once I release the mouse button...

Great tutorial- Thanks for sharing, teamhalo!

Not sure how much difference it makes but it is probably helpful to cue the animation timeline to the first frame of the idle animation when making the adjustment.

Nice alignment on those, Pride and loler!

nice tut teamhalo, but i have two questions:
1)is there any way to use absolute commands, because every time i hit the invoke button, nothing changes, no matter what settings i used and using just the mouse is a real pain in the a..

2) i dunno if i'm the only one who knows this error, but every time i import any of eai's handguns the mesh and the animation get totally messed up, pic attached.

the other sentence is right.
the other sentence is false.

I don't use the absolute commands so I couldn't tell ya, sorry.
and about the hand guns, It seams for me the only cure is buy imported the .X hud file into XSI Mod Tool, re-exporting for there, and then importing into fragmotion.

When you use Rotate All and you're finished rotating, press enter.

And yes when I open handgun models in Fragmotion, the meshes mess-up for me as well.

hello, I tried this out and followed the tut, but when I swapped the hud.x file for the edited one, it didnt seem to change in-game despite a lot of rotating etc to line up the sights. I am confuzzled :/
There is a significant difference in file size, original is 370Kb, edited is 2243Kb if that helps

Thanks to AirMod being integrated into 1.17, EAI has released updated gunspecs of all MP9/MP10 weapons where the slanting issue is fixed all from within the gunspec.

hey guys, what you need to do is use the original model in fpsc, and import the .dbo into Fragmotion. I did it as seen here.

12 guns from mp9/10

Altough its a very neat tutorial, i think in real life it will always rotated it a bit. How can someone hold perfectly a ak47 (eg.) on the aim. (I am sure there are people that can do that in battle,tho.) But while greneades are exploding next to you , and bullets whipe the wind from your ears , i dont think u will take those 5 seconds to get your aim correct.

Altough very ncie tutorial.

I think you never hold a gun? , it's not hard to hold it good. I mean if you dont aim straight, you won't hit something
