Hey, its me again... lol. I've downloaded some cool bipeds, and now I am trying to make some actor/actor_variant tags in guerilla for them. So I open up guerilla, and I select new actor_variant from the dropdown. Now, where it says 'unit' in the dropdown, do I select actor or keep it as unit? and to select a biped to use would I press the '...' beside unit? Sorry if I explained it all weird, But that's pretty much all I need to know, once I figure out how to select the biped I wanna use I can pretty much figure the rest out.

do you not know you can open 2 or however many tags you want at the same time in guerilla?
so make a new actor_variant which you are setting up, and open another already setup actor variant tag to use for reference and go from there.

Quick question though, something isn't defined clearly enough so i'll just ask :P Umm, okay, where it says 'Actor definition' do i go select the biped? and do the same with unit? hope that makes sense

Actor definition is where you add the actor.
in unit set the drop down box to biped and add the biped.
for example.
the marine_armoured:
Actor definition characters\marine_armored\marine_armored major
unit set to biped and characters\marine_armored\marine_armored.

Hmm, not sure if I completely understand... So Say I wanted to use a halo 3 elite biped. Would I have to set actor definition to the stock elite actor variant, and in unit select the h3 elite biped?

Yeah.If you use the wrong type of type of tag,the path of that tag will become red.
