Tell me you're not a Halo fan without telling me you're not a Halo fan.
Master Chief's armor is a standard Mjolnir Mark V/VI Powered Assault Armor System created by Dr. Halsey and produced by the UNSC Materials Group. Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor Systems and the subsequent variations thereof were designed for all SPARTAN-IIs, of which included men and women. As such there is no gendered armor for SPARTANS and this armor isn't exclusively "Master Chief's Armor", it's just Mjolnir Armor as seen in Halo 4's art style.
yikes 😳😳😳 I mean, you could just run the armor with a new male character and just tell yourself you're a woman but I guess they have different sound effects a small price to pay for Master Chief armor Remake
Yeah when I say I'm a Halo fan I mean I'm a Halo fan. Like I've been a fan of the franchise for longer than many of the users on the Nexus have been alive. So I am as Old Guard Spartan as they come.
And I mean fair. Hell considering how few good Female Armor/Avatar mods there are I might just get into BnS modding myself.
by the way, its not that the master chief armor is meant or not meant for women, its just that making armor for female characters is different because of the proportions, i straight up cant just make it wearable for female avatars lol, it has a different rig, different bones, different size, etc, the wardrobe data values are not even same, i make stuff i use, i dont use female avatars so thats why, if you want to make a female version of this armor go ahead
Nah if I was gonna make some Halo Armor I'd probably just rip the UE4 armor models from the customization screens of Halo: The Master Chief Collection, probably by utilizing the SDK, and then import them into Unity. They should (And I'm just theorizing here) already be rigged for male and female avatar proportions and would need minimal conversion from UE4 to Unity.
ue4 is nothing like unity for the sdk, there is no rig retargeting stuff so youd have to fit it, its not like an avatar its an armor system, youll likely need to use blender for fitting and the sdk for the rest
Except MCC already has an armor system in place. Which means this would be as easy as using Reclaimer to go into the MCC .map files, select the sections of the models you want to rip, then exporting them as whatever Reclaimer can export them as and converting them to a .obj if need be. Meaning in theory, if someone wanted to devote the time to this, you could port over basically all of the, say, Halo Reach MCC armor, into BnS pretty directly. And since they have male/female player models in MCC the fitting to female avatars would be pretty easy.
Once I'm done with an event I'm probably going to take this on if no one beats me to it. I haven't dug around in a .map file since my days of messing around with Halo: Custom Edition.
You're not understanding how this works but go for it, you can't port it directly because not every model is going to be the same proportions, you can't just retarget stuff, you have to manually fit each model for the bas's human proportion, I've literally made armor since day 1, i know what I'm doing and how its done, unless you manage to automate the entire process of proportions and size, it's not going to be "pretty directly" unless there's a feature where you import your own model and it auto does it, rigs are different, proportions are different, sizes are different
I know how resizing works. I meant the proportions are going to be more similar between two different female models from different games than Master Chief to a female model.
actually LadyDespara, it is quite literally Chief's armor. There are only 2 hyper lethal Spartans ever; chief and noble six. Hyper-lethal spartans are marked with red triangles on their armor, which this mod has.
hey man love the mod but i noticed almost the entire armor set and most of the helmet doesn't actually function as armor, is this a bug or is this intentional? it would be super cool to see this as a full body armor, i wanna recreate assassinations like in reach Lmao i just want the armor accuracy. Anyway this is a great mod
Also if you do plan on editing the armor a little bit, could you change the black parts of the suit to leather? not visually but as in it functions like leather, like when i try to stab the open armor it would resist like how leather does on the gladiators chest.
i would but in order to use id maps id have to make the entire armor a single texture, its two materials, one for the under body and one for the plate s#*!, so i just made everything plate material, for some reason this doesnt ALWAYS block which is weird
It seems that even the vanilla armor has this problem. The only armor set I've HEARD to have no such problem is the hedge knight set but I've never tried it myself and it's only available for U11 at the moment
So ive used this mod, and I love it to death. As such, I was wondering if its possible to add a halo overlay to the player camera when you put the helmet on? I've never seen a mod do it, so I understand if you can't. If you can do it, it'd be a nice mod option. Other than that one thought, I love this mod.

no, it is not for female avatars

IDK maybe I'll get around to trying that.

Sir, beating the living s#*! out of these mf
Either way, I'm still excited ♥
