The mods great... tho it doesn't really help me as much, I'm trying to recreate the reformed Alpha 9 with all the original ODSTs (-Rookie, +Grechen), so it's quite problematic that I can't really get the Male Spartans to get geared properly in a Helljumper(no tech suit for em either) and the Hi Res Halo 5 mod is a little too rigid and doesn't recieve as well to add ons such as a rangefinder from the WOTC Halo ODST & Redux Reach Trooper series.

Any recommendations?

I have little to no coding/file editing experience.

If you are as interested as I am in using these armors on male characters, I recommend that you open the XComContent file for this mod and get all the pieces that are not the cybersuit, and create a copy within the mod itself, changing the gender to male
It's not perfect, but it's a great deal XD

I think it's safe to assume that this mod is dead

Is anyway change slot like Arm --> Forearm, Leg --> Thigh or Shin? I tried to change in config file, but only got empty equipment.

the one and only thing i will say about it, i wish it had compatibility with the jetpack mod, the Halo 5 armor had thrusters and the jetpack mod has jet trooper deployment, meaning you could equip the jetpacks and have your troops enter with an undersized squad, in other words you could basically recreate the halo 4 intro with the spartans dropping in mid combat

like add the male armors because for a first mod its goooooooooooooood
Xray The Pirate 25 Apr, 2022 @ 1:09pm 
hello are you planning to update the mod ?

All the halo mods were great, with all the star wars mods coming out i wish the same happened for halo. Would legit pay for it if i could lol

@Ausanan you might be able to just make a compatibility mod for this one to convert them to male armor.

@SYNYSTERP0TAT0 Hey mate, I'm thinking of looking into doing a halo 4 or 5 armour mod. Where did you get the assets from? I can't find anywhere to get them.
Endless Void 22 Apr, 2021 @ 2:11pm 
is there going to be any new content for the Male armor
Orion 21 Mar, 2021 @ 9:11pm 
Wait, this was only for females? I though this also included armor for males? I was pretty sure it did... Ah it was probably something else.
Frogmaster 2 Feb, 2021 @ 1:07pm 
dude please tell me you are going to work on the males

@The Dawg i am nigel ;-; lauren and nigel are the same person ;-;

On the one hand, my heart dropped like a stone knowing this was only for females. Between Lauren, Uncle Gunman, Nigel and now you, we've got an amazing Halo armory for everything except men's armor.

On the other hand, these models are absolutely amazing. I can't remember the last time I saw in-game armors that colored this well. It's something about the specularity I think, the slight metallic sheen over everything, that makes it work. I could dress my badass [female] spartans in snot yellow or dog turd brown and it would still look good because of these armors!

Halo mods Poggers! Finish what i started >:D

Techsuit should be located in the torso section. Pulled from the Halo Customizabile Armors mod
Slayer0fKings 6 Nov, 2020 @ 8:51am 
For the TechSuit did you use another mod to have that as the main part of the armors?
Cause when I look I get your parts but then like the meat and potatoes "where the tech suit would be" I don't see any identifiers for your mod so I go with the older tech suit mod from the HALO guy from back in the day.
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 11 Oct, 2020 @ 9:30pm 
@November Yeah that one and Kwahn.

Also don't forget to consult the Xcom 2 Mod reddit page for details on how to get started if you don't already know, as well as miscellaneous walkthrough advice for general application

@SYNYSTERP0TAT0 wow, thanks a bunch. I've been looking for some models. Which youtube tutorial? Was it ObelixDk?
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 10 Oct, 2020 @ 10:33pm 
@November As delightful as that would be, it's much simpler than that.

I got my assets here:
https://www.405th.com/forums/resources/

And I followed youtube tutorials in order to turn the models into playable armors. Tully held my hand through the process and showed me details and answered my questions. The process for adding these armors is the same as for any other, size and fit, rig, weight paint, create and stack the textures, and compile. The coding, while lengthy, is pretty straightforward once you're familiar with the nomenclature.

And for the record, Extracting assets from halo or other Microsoft games is a technical violation on the Microsoft EULA. To those who know how to do it and/ or looking to learn, ask creators or those willing to teach privately and not on public forums. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Will to pay you $300+ up front if you can teach me how to bring halo armors into the game
SloppyMawJob 24 Sep, 2020 @ 9:57pm 
The armor seems to show up everywhere else, but the head. I can't get the helmets to show up at all.
Ryloren 19 Sep, 2020 @ 12:41pm 
Sick
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 19 Sep, 2020 @ 11:09am 
@Jefecito Maybe.
Ryloren 19 Sep, 2020 @ 9:55am 
Any chance Helioskril will be added?
KILLERbeast61 17 Sep, 2020 @ 6:03pm 
this is awesome and I really hope you make male versions of the armors so we can at least complete fireteam majestic! great job!
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 16 Sep, 2020 @ 6:01pm 
I'm working on a separate project atm, considering male armors in the future. There's just some other stuff I want to prioritize first. Emphasis on the make-no-promises part of this, but I might
Stormy035 16 Sep, 2020 @ 9:37am 
Will you make a male version ? Or maybe know a mod where i can have halo 5 male armors ?
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 15 Sep, 2020 @ 11:34pm 
If the mod isn't showing up in game, please troubleshoot by turning off all other mods to isolate mine, and use the character pool to determine whether or not my mod is broken or if another is causing it to not appear. I cannot seem to replicate this issue with my current mod selection.
BudderBoat 15 Sep, 2020 @ 1:15pm 
Doesn't show up in game.
Catarina Fatman 14 Sep, 2020 @ 10:32pm 
Nice
SYNYSTERP0TAT0  [author] 14 Sep, 2020 @ 11:55am 
@Saint They are tintable, but I did use the stock tint masks 343 had. Some of it got lost in translation between games though, so there is a fair bit that is not tintable.
Cowboy Jones 14 Sep, 2020 @ 10:30am 
This looks pretty damn good for your first mod, hats off to you.
Samantha 14 Sep, 2020 @ 6:41am 
are they tintable?
GypsyNova 13 Sep, 2020 @ 12:46pm 
Thanks for the hard work, and sorry to hear about your old pc but yay for the new one! Please take a well deserved rest and I'm looking forward to what you do next!
brbsharkweek 13 Sep, 2020 @ 9:12am

Flashstriker 13 Sep, 2020 @ 2:51am 
Well done on the release!
Valewin 13 Sep, 2020 @ 1:35am

Pege12 12 Sep, 2020 @ 11:09pm 
Dude why did you only grab the good armor?
Azure 12 Sep, 2020 @ 10:55pm 
Ladies only is good, too much out there already that is male only.
