The fact that you're modding other people's mods. To make yourself play as a grunt, open up the globals.globals tag in Guerilla, and change the player to a grunt, instead of a cyborg.

Get HEK+ (on this site) and rip tags\characters\grunt from bloodgulch.map in your HALO maps folder.

^NO. Bloodgulch doesn't have grunts in it. Rip it from a10.map from your Halo PC maps folder.

No. To make yourself play as a grunt, you redirect the player character to a grunt inside the globals.globals file.

change only this one & your biped must have fp animations for every weapon and veachal if you expect him to get in veachals or use weapons.

i know im being a pain with these questions but when i go to my character tag files and go into the cyborg i find a biped there but in my grunt file all i see is one bitmap. in fact i only have a biped in the character file for cyborg am i supposed to import a biped or something? i think it would be easier if u post a picture like jackrabbit. also ive been trying to use hek + to see if i could do it with that so i can be a jackel or something on this cool mod i made. if u could responed to this last one thatl be great :P

You didn't extract the tags. Open HEK+, open a10.map, and once all these folders pop up, drag them all into the list on the right that says "Tag Extraction Cue". Uncheck the "Save extracted tags list" box, and click Start.

Go to your HEKPlus.exe. Right click it. Click Properties. Go to the compatibility tab, and check the box that says: "Disable Desktop Composition". Click OK, and then try.

Then you're in luck. Open the start menu. Type in Snipping tool. Open it. Then, "snip" the area you want us to see. Save that picture. Then, upload it, and give us the link.

Tell me something new for once :P

As for uploading, go to a image site, like http://imageshack.us/ or http://tinypic.com/. Upload it there, and give us the link.
