Adjutant V3.2.0.0 RELEASE Adjutant is the all-in-one asset extraction tool for Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach and Halo 4, provided by Gravemind and constantly under development. Adjutant supports: - Halo 3/ODST/Reach and limited Halo 4 model extraction - Halo 3/ODST/Reach and limited Halo 4 texture extraction - Halo 3/ODST/Reach sound file extraction Adjutant does NOT support (nor am I aware of plans to support): - BSP extraction for any game- Halo 4 sound extraction - Animations for bipeds TROUBLESHOOTING"Adjutant isn't working for me! I get an error and it won't extract XYZ asset!" Adjutant is a work-in-progress. Some assets simply won't extract currently, due to the data not being properly called. Try the following steps before submitting an issue report: - Check/reinstall .Net Framework 4.0 (required for use) - Check that Adjutant is fully up-to-date - Check you have the relevant campaign, shared and mainmenu .map files in the same folder as the map you're trying to extract from - Check you have a copy of ToWav for sound extraction "I exported the rig, it's broken!" Waffles has an explanation: Quote: Theres a temporary process (till Gravemind fixes it) to get weighting and bones back to "normal", might put something together to explain it better. But basically, you can fix all the bones with 3ds max's "bone tools" and the pivot editor. From what i gathered, the pivots are inversed and flipped on two axis'; x is off by 90 and z is off by 180 degrees (must do this process without weighted mesh). During the process of fixing the bones, you'll probably notice that they are horribly stretched and skewed--bone tools has an option to "reset stretch" which will re-scale every bone back to a value of 1.0.
*sigh* and if you really have the time to note what's actually being weighted in the skin modifier you can save the weights in each modifier and reload them to the correct nodes. Prolly post an example or something of a "fixed" model. "Where are my diffuse maps?" Waffles, again, with an explanation: Quote: --- Original message by: Waffles There are two types of control bitmaps, type 1 is for materials with an RGB/ARGB diffuse map. Type 2 is for materials without a separate diffuse map, the diffuse maps are grey scale and stored in channel data.
control type 1 bitmaps R=specular G=specular-exponent B=reflection
control type 2 bitmaps R=specular/reflection G=diffuse B=specular-exponent A=dual colour-change (black is secondary, white is primary)
Any bitmaps with the suffix multi, are control type 1. Examples of type 1 are usually weapon control maps/props/scenery. Examples of type 2 are all MP character models.
Also, illumination data is stored in the diffuse alpha channel where it applies. (Use common sense to tell what is transparency and what is illumination).
Diffuse maps RGB=diffuse colour A=illumination source
Otherwise h4 relies heavily on materials and default bitmaps for all other illumination (MP Spartans). They use geometry for shape, and a white texture that can be colour-changed.
Halo 4 isn't limited by pre-set bitmap configurations, the new material system allows for more flexibility in choosing what bitmap channel is what source (colour change/illumination/transparency) Adjutant V2 can be found here: CLICK ToWav (for sound extraction) can be found here: CLICKChampion's Bundle content can be found here: CLICKEdited by Rosanna Weyland on Aug 25, 2013 at 05:51 PMEdited by Rosanna Weyland on Aug 25, 2013 at 05:51 PMEdited by Rosanna Weyland on Mar 20, 2014 at 08:20 AM

You're going to have to be more specific. Are we talking about Halo 3/ODST/Reach/4 bitmaps? I'm not having a bitmaps issue as of yet, but some models from Reach seem to have the issue you described. Ensure you have the right .NET framework installed, and do a clean install of Adjutant.

Could you upload the 3.2.0.0 exe of adjudant? Apparently during the update it crashed and the exe itself got destroyed. Plus, the old 3.0.0.1 version won't even start up properly (so I can't update from there either).

I didn't think my post would upset you that much. I was just expressing my disappointment how this program doesn't come with sound extraction for Halo 4. I'm glad Halo 4 models/bitmaps/ect can be extracted so people can finally start getting them ingame. Great.

I didn't get what Gravemind meant by Halo 4 "sound sound" extraction.
Now, it all makes sense.
I don't really care for H4 assets but at least people won't complain about Gravemind not releasing Halo 4 plugins.

You're as bad as an atheist that gets his cues for religious arguments from Bill Maher or Seth MacFarlane. I liked the weapon sounds for one. If i were to look at all the downsides to Halo 4, I'd list the sound design as a plus. It was much more raw this time around. The assault rifle in Halo 1 sounded like a semi-automatic Anti-air gun. The assault rifle in Halo 4 sounded like, well.. An actual assault rifle. The plasma pistol (one of the best Halo 4 sounds imo) had much more substance than in the previous games and the other weapons were good, too. The sniper-rifle sounded rather punkish, though and the pistol sounded alot like the H2 version.

They functioned about the same as regular human weapons, except they use different ammunition and they look different. The Light Rifle is basically a DMR with a special firing mode. The Suppressor is about the same as a SMG. The Bolt Shot is like a combination of the Mauler,Magnum and Plasma Pistol. Edited by Dumb AI on May 5, 2013 at 10:07 PM

Prometheans are advanced humans technologically and intellectually, not physically, per se.. If every Promethean weapon was a railgun, there'd be no variety.

Halo 4 changed everything for the sake of change, and all the guns sound atrocious. The BR sounds like someone trying to start a lawnmower, and the gravity hammer sounds extremely weak and like a laser pistol toy. Edited by KingNick220 on May 5, 2013 at 10:56 PM

Quote: --- Original message by: KingNick220 Who cares about Halo 4 sounds anyway? The gun sounds are terrible, and there isn't any good dialogue for any of the characters anyway. the plasma pistol sound is perfect in terms of that punch of launching that single powerful plasma bolt, hearing both the launch and the trigger pull. while it lacks the plasma feel of previous iterations, the sound is certainly reminiscent of actual pistols and not just this little generic "pew" the assault rifle sounds are punchy and a lot more effective than reach's tacky sound and halo3's thud. halo 1 still has a rocking AR sound though. the carbine has a nice new sound while staying close enough to the original for that instant recognition. most of the promethean weapons sound the same, but they have a neat flanger/fluid-like sound to them that distinguishes them from the already massive halo sound sample library. the dialogue is very well voiced and timed, unlike halo 2's emotionless miranda and hood and halo 3's lackluster arbiter, what with his constant brooding. if mixed well and used correctly, many wonderful sound samples can be generated from the wide variation of new sounds that halo 4 generated, as opposed to halo 1 2 and 3 sharing the same generic sounds despite their obvious aging.
