Body separation glitch: Difference between revisions
I provided an example -- Corpse Respawn. You have not. CITE A SOURCE or cut it out. (Though I did just notice I created two Explanations. Fixed.)
(Because the hands the player sees on the screen are labelled as FP hands. the legs the player sees when looking down are also FP. this glitch causes the player to see the legs model in its entirety) |

The '''Body Separation Glitch''' is a model and animation error present in ''[[Halo 2]]''. The [[glitch]] allows players to separate a playable character's upper and lower body. It may be performed when playing as either the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] or the [[Master Chief]]. | The '''Body Separation Glitch''' is a model and animation error present in ''[[Halo 2]]''.

The most basic way to perform this glitch is to simply look down at your character's feet, and spin around. If the Look Sensitivity setting has been set high enough, the character's torso will spin faster than their lower body, effectively allowing the character's body to twist in unnatural ways. | The most basic way to perform this glitch is to simply look down at your character's feet, and spin around.

On the level [[Gravemind (Level)|Gravemind]], when you are in the [[Mausoleum of the Arbiter]], walk up to the [[Arbiter (Rank)|Arbiter]]'s armor sarcophagus, and try to walk inside through the front, where Thel 'Vadamee got his armor out from in the [[The Arbiter (level)|Arbiter]] [[cutscene]].

On the ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[multiplayer]] map [[Cold Storage (Level)|Cold Storage]], find the yellow tube with the [[Flood]] [[Tank Form]] inside of it. Use the [[Forge Turret Glitch]] to enter the tube.

When [[Bungie]] modeled the characters in the game, they modeled and animated the upper and lower halves of each character separately, to make it easier to animate a character turning without moving their legs -- that is, to allow a player to turn their character's head without the character having to reorient their legs. The upper and lower halves of the bodies are synchronized such that if a character turns enough, their legs will reorient (as they would for a person in real life). The glitch, then, is the desynchronization of each half of a playable character's body. | When [[Bungie]] modeled the characters in the game, they modeled and animated the upper and lower halves of each character separately, to make it easier to animate a character turning without moving their legs -- that is, to allow a player to turn their character's head without the character having to reorient their legs.

The bump glitches result from the fact that the player model's torso is hidden, but their legs are still visible. Were the torso still visible, the player would see it instead of just the character's waist. | |||
