I havent had the opportunity to use the beta 1.6 hce but i am sure it is not as buggy as the one before. I deleted all the cache files on my x: drive and when I loaded halo and went to a map and then back to HCE it had a bunch of garbled trash ,numbers etc as the names for the maps. I would like to see a more graphical interface as in menus, pull down menus, maybe an offset file editor, or on the fly editing of the offsets in a file, with maybe an onsreen keyboard? could check out xpad and go from that. I use xpad instead of ftping evox.ini and other things etc. to edit menus etc. how about a plugin for a weapon editor? and or skinner?

I sent em a skin, i was wondering why it wasnt up, lol. I dont know if you have done this yet, probably, I just havent checked the usual places, but preview with pictures? Other than that, maybe transparencys, that would be nice.

HCE supports this tongue.gif
use a png or something else with transparent stuff and use for the 'invisible' color

if u want to figure out the opacity in terms of %, times ur desired opacity by 2.55 and then use the caculator to find the hex version of that number (goes after the 0x, XW used 69 aka about 41%)
