I got the flood infection form from h3 and was wondering how do I animate a flood infection form and tag it? The biped came rigged already so it should be easy, I don't care about having h3 animations (but that would be nice) So how do I do all of that stuff? like the Idol animation and stuff? Also with the bitmap for the fronds (or whatever thier called) shows the tentacles and a white background, do I get rid of the white in the shader? If so how? This is my first biped.

You need it re-rigged to the Halo 1 infection form.
Then edit the bitmap for the tentacles to have alpha, and ingame they should be fine, if you remember to use a shader_transparent_chicago.

I imported the halo ce flood bones and put them were they are supposed to be, and got them linked up, then I tried to test an animation on the bones, but when I imported the animation the bones disappeared! Why did they do that?

Node list checksum match to animations?

I've actully got the attenna things and the tail thing done, so all I need is the legs done, so yeah. I don't think I need help with the rigging, but just to make sure when I'm done with the rigging do I export the model and collision-geometry as a .jms and then use cmd stuff, then make shaders, then make the tags and use the origanal animation for it? Right?

EDIT:

I was starting to have problems with it so I have disided to let you rig it, and you can tag it to, but the thing has a lot of open edges though. I will give it to you without bones and I will like the flood back with all the tags. The model will be in .max (for 10), .3ds, and .obj.

I'd like it tagged because I don't know how to tag bipeds, and I would make it "bad" or .1/10! lol

K, I hope my max 9 trial is still good.

Looks good but when will I be able to get the biped back with tags? Just wondering.

Edit: one thought, the legs bitmaps look a little bit pale, or don't fit in with the other bitmaps, but it's fine.

that's fine

When you say "k, thanks for your time." does that mean your done with it or not?
