It's in the MEKs scripts folder. If you have the MEK, just run the updater and tell it to download the newest copy of the MEK. Here's a link to the MEK's thread.

So what does my modification do? Well, primarily it replaces the activex widget dependencies with dotnet ones. Activex controls was deprecated starting with Max 9 in favor of dotnet controls, so anyone not running Max 7/8 wouldnt be able to run it without jumping through hoops and installing activex. In short, this makes the animation extractor work with Max 9 and up.

The other tweak I did was make it so if you don't have a max scene with a skeleton to animate(this is called the origin scene), then this will generate the necessary nodes at (0, 0, 0) with default rotation and scale. Not super useful, but it might come in handy.

This extractor extracts directly from xbox maps and exports to max files and jma/jmo/jmr/etc files.

So, we can say that H2 marine anims are finally a thing! Is this the end of this endless in-joke?

Yeah. Someone I know has more or less a full copy of the h2spp stuff, and is working on heavily cleaning it up. I wont name names since they are doing it on their own time and probably wont want the attention.


Just to be clear, I did NOT make this extractor. The credits can be found in the script. I merely made it work for newer versions of Max and made it able to extract animations without having a skeleton scene.

Now we just need this to work with the Halo 2 Alpha and Beta.

At last, halo 2 marine anims, oh 5hit im late for that

Does their name start with a k? There's only been 4 people, including me who've had access to the H2SPP folder.

I sadly don't have access anymore though.

Wasn't me, meaning its fairly outdated. I would naturally assume their name starts with m, since a certain person whose name starts with m does talk with moses.


Anyways, idk how different this one is from the version I've received (can't even directly check, since the one I was left with was an encrypted maxscript), but if its close too the one I have, you don't want it to automatically export the JMOs; it'll be missing the base keyframe. Also, where did kornman release this, and is there other things there?


Also, all those H2 marine jokes, you do realize I've released a map with those tags without mentioning it, just to continue the trolling, right? I'm sure that map is available on the HMU archives.

You can find the source of the script and everything he posted here.

Yeah, that's where the script is from Kirby. If it's not exporting part of the jmo animation just let me know and I'll see about fixing it. I'm actually working on my own game right now so I'll get around to it when I can.


EDIT: Also Kirby, just send me the maxscript. I have a tool for converting it into an unencrypted maxscript. Did it for adjutants EMF Importer and found this lovely message at the bottom(censored as per the forum rules):
