The collision model is used for projectile hit detection, among other things. The physics model is used for defining where an object can land, drive, etc, so of course just changing the collision won't have an affect on the actual physical representation of the world. You would have to recalculate data using algorithms that are private to Havok, but accessible using interfaces in their SDK. Unless of course you got a special license for complete source code of their SDK, but the cost of that is far greater than probably this community's piggy banks combined. I don't know, maybe some of you are sitting on a gold mine but due to you're age, can't cash in on it ;p. So I HIGHLY doubt you will ever see any of the program makers ever conjure up something to edit the physics model of a bsp\object without some kind of "third party help"...
So its like my thought up explanation number 2. so that means really were stuck. unless i can figure out how to import a bsp from h2v, we cant do anything about it.

Question.
If you cant do custom halo 2 bsp's, can you do halo 1 ones? I had an idea for a map and i was trying to figure out which game to make it for.

Neodos, I believe you still need to know how Bungie used the havok in their game...

I remember the mod on Coag. your refering to. Though it slips me just who it was.
He was learning to hex edit. Did some editing on coags bsp/sbsp. Walked around the map and found a hole beside one of the bases. If I remember correctly it did have collision and he put a teleporter down there for shits and giggles. This was a WHILE back though.

This was Dootuz's mod. He also did a few other things to the map such as add spikes. I tried the method but I got lost since I suck at hex :p
I'll dig it up for you
