No Weapon

The No Weapon glitch is found in both Halo 2 And Halo 3. It is a good tool for Machinima as it makes you drop the weapon that you have, and if you don't have a secondary weapon, you will have no weapon. This is great to do while shooting a Machinima or video as it will remove part of your HUD. This glitch works in both Halo 2 and Halo 3.
How to do it in Halo 2
- The game type must be set to an objective type, such as Oddball, Capture The Flag, or an Assault game.
- You can have only one weapon and that is a Plasma Pistol, no secondary weapon.
- Charge up the Plasma Pistol and walk up to the Oddball, Flag, or Bomb.
- Pick up the Objective item while keeping the Plasma Pistol charged.
- Drop the Objective item quickly and you should be holding no weapon.
How to do it in Halo 3
- Start a Forge game with at least two players.
- Have one player enter Monitor mode and spawn a weapon.
- Have player two pick the weapon up and at the same time have player one delete it.
Note: You must be very quick when doing this.
Note: Even though your weapon is gone you're still in a combat pose, you can lower your weapon but the game will still think you have a weapon so you will look like you have an invisible weapon. For this reason machinima makers that want realism should use an Energy Sword.
