one problem about your idea, both red and blue team use the same models.
the only way this could work is if someone changed it to that one on the teams uses a diferent model, and inject all of the elite's model info.

The only problem is that the Elites have their bitmaps split into specific body parts (arms, torso, legs, etc) where as the MC is just one model (Cyborg) for bitmaps. I'll try to see what I can do, but there are most likely others who could work around this.

Well, after alot of saving of dds files and viewing in Photoshop (all the Elite bitmaps I could find from PoA and all the MC bitmaps I could find from BG), I've realized that it's (using what's available to me) practically impossible to replace the Elites bitmaps over the MC's. Even if I could save the elites individual body parts per image and then literally paste those over the corrosponding MC body parts, I wouldn't be able to view certain Elite Bitmaps (some of them were very "pixelized" and unviewable...like some old arcadian game) in the first place. So unless someone can find someway to get their Photoshop or whatever they use to edit dds images to save and view DXT2, I don't think anyone will be putting Elite bitmaps in BG, or any other Multiplayer map for that matter.

Whew.

Lol, I should've thought of that before. I've been working with texture/bitmap swapping all day, I should've realized what I was doing wrong, lol. Thanks for clearing that up.
