Halo 2 Vista Map Design / Technical » Extracting models from single player campaign Jan 30, 2011 07:40 PM (Total replies: 2)

Thank you for the warm welcome! I did a little searching and was able to find and download Entity version 2.1.8. I’m not sure if this is the version you were referring to or not but it was the latest version I could find. Now in order to extract things from the Xbox version I’m going to have to have it my on hard drive?

Halo 2 Vista Map Design / Technical » Extracting models from single player campaign Jan 30, 2011 04:03 AM (Total replies: 2)

Not too long ago I bought Halo 2 Vista and I would like to extract the Master Chief model used in the single player campaign so I can view it with a 3D modeling program like gmax. I first looked online to see if this had already been done by someone but all I was able to find was the Master Chief model that is used in multiplayer (it appears much less detailed than the single player model seen in cut scenes).

I then started looking into how to do it myself but info on exactly how to do it seemed to be not very thorough or was written so long ago that the links to any utilities mentioned are no longer functioning. I also saw it stated that you can’t extract models from the Vista version of Halo 2 but only from the xbox version of the game but I am unsure if this is still true. Using H2v Edit I was able to locate a string in the 00a_introduction.map under mode which I believe is the Master Chief model (objects\characters\masterchief\ masterchief) I’m looking for but I don’t know how I would extract it.

My question is: Is there a way to extract this model? I understand that it is more than likely a complicated process but I’m willing to do the work. I would just really like to get my hands on this model!
