ok i just need to get the proper plug-ins until i can do this but for future reference could this be possible or is it way to advanced for beginners like me some map you are able to hold four weapons so could i add to the halo 2 backpack weps like the sidearms like smg's and pistols be on both sides of legs and if you have two main arms like assault rifle and battle rifle the battle rifle would go on the back and the assault rifle go on the chestplate area? kinda like army of two

that would take sooooooo many permutations and such a long script... it is possible but just so ridiculous to even attempt.... i couldn't imagine doing it to be honest

Well no i don't think that could work? Why? Well because when the backpack scripts were released there was something said about that they used up all the shader spots or something similar to that. But i took that as there isn't room to add more backpack weapons

it doesnt matter if you put mutliple bitmaps in one shader.. take things that have similar shine, and group them side by side in one bitmap. then while in the backpack MC model, use UVmap the weapons to move the uvs over to the bitmap that they belong to. then you've saved bitmaps.
