The first look at my SP mod for Halo CE

Well, now that I have most of my problems solved, I can finally start working on the SP mod that I have wanted to make for Halo CE. The chances of me releasing it aren't all that great because it won't be much compared to CMT's SPv2, but it's the first time I ever mod Halo CE. Anyways, here is the first weapon that I have managed to make, keep in mind that it is my first time using Sapien.

Stealth Plasma Rifle :

The Covenant Elites have had many casualties while fighting the humans due to the fact the they were always in close-medium range combat and always easy targets for most human weaponry. So, a new weapon had to be developed that had the power to take out targets easily and the accuracy to fight at a long range to minimize casualties. It also had to be light enough to be able to carry around in every type of battlefield. Stealth was another way to bring down the death rate, so that also had to be considered. The product of their months of brainstorming was the Stealth Plasma Rifle. It was stronger than the ordinary rifles used, and it had better accuracy and faster plasma. However, it could only fire 100 shots before the weapon had to be replaced and it shot much slower as well. The first prototypes of this weapon are only used in the hands of Special Operations and Stealth Elites, due to the small number created.

The Covenant Hunters are a formidable weapon, but they are vulnerable to long range weapons and easy targets from behind. Something had to be done. A new breed of Hunters was born. With their new armor, they would be able to have active camouflage, therefore being able to sneak up on enemies and kill them in one hit. They were also equipped with shields similar to the ones used by elites. However, these upgrades left the armor too heavy for the Hunters to wear, so they had to be made lighter, thinner and unfortunately, weaker. This also drained energy that would have been used for the arm mounted fuel-rod gun. The heavy weapon had to be replaced with a small, and not very powerful, plasma weapon similar to the plasma pistol. This left the Hunters a lot less powerful then before, so the metal shields were switched back to the ones used on the current Hunter armor in service. These Hunters excel in melee combat and are rarely seen using their arm mounted rifle.

Pics : Coming Soon

This is all I have for now, but more will come later. Note that this is a Work In Progress and anything here is subject to change. Any comments will be appreciated.

I am also looking for a free Modeling program so I can remodel the new weapons.

So far its ok, but I like the fact you have a story and an actual idea. Rather than "I'm just going to go along and see what happens" approach others have :D

Sub-mazing but alright :)

Thanks for the feedback. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to tell me.

so you make a plasmarifle shoot pink. :eyesroll:

And you judge this mod by the size of his font.

Yes, definately needs more then just a modified plasma rifle.

At least change the cubemap...

Hunters sound interesting, though. You plan to remodel them, I take it?

I was planning to just make them have active camouflage, seeing as I don't know how to model yet. If I could model, then yes, I would remodel them. Any help would be greatly appreciated with this.

Flying Elites, eh? I'll see if I can do that. I'll try as hard as I can to fulfill both your...requests.

Ya, I know, but every modeling program that I tried didn't work. I've tried Blender, but I couldn't load the models I wanted to modify and I couldn't get the hang of it enough to make models of that quality from scratch. I've also tried Wings 3D, but it didn't want to let me modify the model. As I've said before, any help would be great.
