In a row that I produced interest with my sniper tatoo I made it for u guys to get ur sniper pimped.

If u follow step by step it will bring u to the goal.
I have added some pics for almost every step to do.
For help u can contact me via xfire whenever I`m online.

I explain here how to skin a sniper by using the example to get a circumflex above the o in my name


How to skin your Sniper

1. U ll need the folowing progarmms, u can get them at the asside standing links

• HaloMapTools v 3.5 u can get it here
  halo2.filefront.com/file/Halo_Mapping_Tools_Version_35;37863and
  
  and
  
  
• Paint.NET from here www.paint.net/ click on get paint.net on that page and on downloads on the next
  

Once they are installed backup your halo map files.
I advice to copy the whole halo map folder and paste it in a temp folder,
just for sure.

2. Start HMT3.5

10. save the texture on a different name,

click in the next window ok

12. close HMT3.5 and reload Halo

13. as u can c , i have now a circumflex above the c,

Btw, the Sniper will look like this in every map, u don`t need to change in every1.

Ehm, forget the copyright sign for the C. Ok , from the start.
