How do you modify a Scarab tag to allow for the driver to enter at one of the legs?

You would have to move the #driver marker

Does anyone know the node coordinates?

That'd be some hard stuff...

Why don't you just import it into 3ds/gmax?

yeah just import it using bluestreak that what i did when i first saw some one get inn the passenger seat of a wasp (looked realy messed up...)

Oh yeah, you'd have to create a marker named #driver enter if you don't want MC to sit in the leg XD

i would do something like the overpowered piece of junk called the mythos.

remember when there was no driver, that hatch with stairs opened, and closed when a driver got in? sure you could get in from the bottom and always appeared underneath, but it worked.

perhaps if you made a covenant-style extending ladder on the side that would be out in any lack of driver. plus a modification i saw that puts the scarab in a crouched position, i think it would work great.

of course, if you are going to modify a scarab, i think this.

there should also be:
A) some cargo type seats in the command deck. No firepower, but better protection
B) a Co-Pilot for the main gun (currently the secondary gun for the driver)
C) a Gunner Seat for the Rear gun (its not even used on the model in the Halo 2 Campaign, but its there)
D) perhaps a model with one to two small, infantry operated plasma turrets on each side. Not much firepower, but its something, and its optional.

Or someone could suck it up and either:
A) Completely redo the Scarab (there are issues with being able to see and everything) or:
B) Suck it up some more and make a Halo 3 Scarab. The core in the rear would just be visual, the armor guarding it won't blow off, and the legs can't be damaged to take it down.

i think all of the above should be done, but thats why i mention it.
it would be odd to control it from the leg... though entirely possible. Just don't make it like the Tachikoma from Hugeass. You should know what i mean.

Or, you could apply a ladder symbol, so that you can climb up the scarab.

I have just added it to my "NoWayOut" map. Extinction map has a loading tower with ladder which looks good.

lame

@foxtrotzero
controlling from the leg is possible, as all u do is move the #driver enter and maybe the #driver, but the #camera driver would be in the same place, so the camera would be behind and above the scarab and not where the driver is.

i'm perfectly aware that its possible. but i'm thinking in the multidimensional world of background storys and design.
