I'm just going to come out and say it. I really do like the Halo Infinite models but they are proving to be a real pain in the ass to rig. The Elites especially. What do you use to rig your characters? Well Blender has been less than cooperative for me lately because of it eating up all my RAM all of a sudden. This has been making Blender almost unusable because of crippling frame-rate drops, so I tried to to do it in Maya but the issue I ran into was the armor sets. The Elite base rigged just fine but the armor sets forget it.

Clueless about rigging in Maya.. starting to learn a little in Blender.. If Maya has any similar processes to Max, one thing I know is that If additional meshes aren't animating along with the 'skinned' base mesh, there are two options.. you can either combine the base & armour meshes (='Join' in Blender) & then rig, or you can 'Link' (Max term) the armour meshes to the corresponding bone.. no idea what they call it & how you perform linking in either apps but I would recommend that first coz if you join the meshes, the armour will deform like a muscle.. Looks like his legs require reverse rigging too or he wont look right when walking...

So my first attempt at completing a Mixamo rig in Blender.. still needs fine tuning with the weights around the toes etc but all & all I'm pretty happy with the overall deforming/animation. I'm not too familiar with these Halo characters & their armour sets so I just put together my fave combo Here's the file.. rigged model only, sorry no textures as wasn't sure on how to export them.. www.mediafire.com/file/ykqslxfmubrd7y0/halo.inf.elite_test-walk-link-armour.rar/file

I'll take a look at that.
Don't worry about the textures. The way the textures are set up is kind of weird. I'm still trying to figure out how and why the textures are set up the way they are.

Pretty sure its because there are at least x3 types of armour sets, textures applied, all merged with the base mesh, hence why it gives off a trippy colour config...

This is the Pelican from Microsoft Flight Simulator, basic maps applied, still some work to do and I have to separate the objects out yet. ibb.co/gdGff98ibb.co/sJkJS2j

Also for those of you wondering about the Halo 2 Anniversary models someone created a dedicated tool like UnityAssetStudio specifically for H2A.
At long last.

Another update from the Halo models Discord server I'm in.
A sudden spike in the number of models from Halo 5 apparently. It took 7 years but it finally happened people finally cracked Halo 5's code. And apparently according user MonkeyRebel117, AI was used in that endeavor.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but, even though I hated Halo 5's art direction, there's no denying that Halo 5's graphics look sharper than Infinite's.
Everything in Infinite looks like it's made of plastic.

For those of you who are really interested in the Halo 5 stuff, I recommend the Discord server, The Halo Archive. That's where all the Halo 5 stuff is being put up.

OK a biiiiiig request. I only ever played HALO back in the day on my PC so I'm not up to date on it's history. However a friend has asked if I could create an image of Kai-125 so has she appeared in a game yet and is she available for download in either FBX or Blender? Even better would be Daz though I suspect that won't be possible. Any help would be appreciated thank you kindly

If you want a model of her you're going to have to make it from scratch, though I've seen models people have made of her helmet.

And another request if I may. I'm after some HALO buildings. Something like a training building for the HALO boys and gals. I've looked in the archive but it's not very well named in there.
