Okay you need Gmax or 3DS max.

3DS max (Hundred of dollars) link:

Photoshop or something similar.

A GBXmodel importer. (Both work with both Gmax and 3DS max!)
Gearbox Model Converter Utility For Halo CE:

James Model Importer v5.4: (Above is better in my opinion)

And some easy tutorials to get you started. (I'll add more here later!)

Ive been looking through these tutorials, and i was wondering what program do you use to mod the weapons and how. Is there an HHT or w/e tutorial, or am i thinking of the totally wrong program?

The Halo Editing Kit is pretty much for all fully custom created content. Since...well...it's the...official editing kit.

You forgot BlueStreak I think. The maxscript by TheGhost that allows .jms exporting in Gmax and 3ds Max without Blitz. Beats the crap out of chimp, and works for scenery/weapons in Gmax.

Did you actually install it, or did you just download the installation file?
