HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Yes, I'm a 'noob', look at my post count. I'm coming here because I'm in a major time crunch, So please hear me out.

I need a complete model of a Pelican from Halo 2.

I would go the alternate route of having friends with modded Xboxes rip all the elements off the Halo 2 disk and have other friends with experience in 3D tediously assemble it in 3DS Max, but I can't- I don't have time as I am on a deadline for a project I can not discuss. (But trust me- after you see the final project, you will be extremely glad you could have been of help- I am not exaggerating)

Anyone with the files for a fully textured and assembled Pelican from Halo 2 (and if possible- with moving/pivoting wings) please reply here and we'll trade IM info over Personal Messages. Even if you don't have the model but you know someone who does or you know of a place on the internet where one is stored, please tell me.

I greatly appreciate the help, I've gone everywhere and this is my last option. Please know I am on an extreme time crunch- I have 3 days to complete a test with this pelican or else I might as well have not come here at all.

*edit*- I'll even throw in some money- if no-one has one ready built, I'll commission you to do the rip and rebuild for $20 over paypal.

I dunno if u could get the tags from www.halomaps.org to work...Its the NPelican for HaloCe for hugeass...u might beable to convert it i guess?

I wouldnt know becuse i dont have Halo2 but u can try it =)

I edited my post to specify that I need a pelican from Halo 2-

I've searched an all I've been able to find are models and textures of Halo 1 Pelicans.

Why do you need the H2 pelican, exactly?

I really wish I could tell you. I'm going out on a limb even bringing up it's existence and the fact that a Pelican might be involved

*edited initial post- I'm throwing some money in the mix here ($20, may go up) for whoever can find an accurate model.

okok i think i found you one..How do i contact u to tell u it privatly?

It has a readme and stuff to tell u how to do it...its a .ppf file..SO u might beable to open it sumhow.

idk, I'm looking for native "click and open" files for 3DS Max- If I have to convert anything I might as well do the whole rip and assemble deal in the first place.

Arg why didnt u say so...lol
I Might beable to do that..So all i gotta do is get the pelican model?

ok i got the max file...=)

yes, textured, bumpmapped, as it looks in the campaign, easily openable in 3DS Max. I'll update the initial post to be more specific.

ok then..I think i have that just tell me how i cans end it to u,

Im looking at 4 pelican .max files for 3ds max 5+!

Do u have xfire?

O.0 i feel bad that i had to reformat my pc and i dont have 3ds max 8 anymore..But if these .max files are what they looked like in game..they look pretty freaking cool.

I got a random unused AIM from a friend that I'll be using to hide who I am-


AIM: "Leann Come Over"

Contact me there.

oi i dont have that..i guess i can d/l it really quick =)

OK im downloading it now..My name will be Yourpain or [SK]Yourpain

we can chat on an IRC channel or via PMs

mmm pm is good for me =) unless u feel more comfortable with AIM

go to the IRC link on the front page:

http://www.halomods.com/

and type "/j #safehouse" (without the quotes) to enter my room.

ok that works let me install this java thing to get in the irc

The model truepain found didn't have a texture- so the hunt is still on and the $20 to rip and assemble one still stands.

darn =( that is odd

You still haven't told me what this is for, and I'm not even going to try until you do.
You sound like someone who made a promise to someone that you can't fulfill.
I can help you out if you tell me exactly what this is for.

It's not a promise I made to someone- but there are reasons for the secrecy and for the deadline. If you're not willing to help, there's nothing I can do to make you anyway, so don't.

I'm not going to blow the whole project wide open, just remember my words here-

"But trust me- after you see the final project, you will be extremely glad you could have been of help- I am not exaggerating"

The word of a stranger, take it or leave it.
