First of all, what led me to hunt for them was when I was messing with this biped:

main changes are a total revamping of shaders and bitmaps. through this I emulated bump-mapping by using a "flat" texture for the main texture and a bump-mapped multipurpose.
blah blah blah... well there is also a reason why I have yet to make such changes to the fp arms. I do not like the FP arm textures that come with this biped because it is already bump-mapped; even if I had the bump map so I could make the effect greater when a part is shiny, the effect is lost because the main texture also has the bumps. And the multipurpose texture by jahrain just... I never liked it.
I decided to search for it here and of course I had absolutely no luck. Closest thing i came to was the textures for the third person model, and z_teams maps which have the exact plain texture I would need, I think. But because they are protected, they would be [sarcasm]very... very... very... VERY fun to rip from[/sarcasm](and besides, thats not a good idea to even think of).
Only thing I have yet to try is google, and right now I have to go eat.
So... what I would like to know is where I could get the halo 2 fp arm texture and maybe even a bump-map for it if possible.
