Character compatibility is the set of animations for weapons that a particular player model has that basically decide what weapons that model can wield. Most of these animations are not used, however can be tested using modding. This does not include swapping the actual character models - for example, swapping Marine character models with Grunts allows Grunts to throw Frag Grenades. This only applies to swapping weapons, otherwise everyone could use every weapon. This information is not absolutely guaranteed to be accurate, as not all combinations have been tested, some have been assumed based on the results of other weapon wield tests.
Halo: Combat Evolved[]
Spartan[]
The Spartan II can use all weapons in Halo: Combat Evolved except the Energy Sword. The Fuel Rod Gun is only usable in Halo: PC.
- MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System (Assault Rifle)
- M6D Personal Defense Weapon System (Pistol)
- M19 SSM Rocket Launcher (Rocket Launcher)
- M90 Close Assault Weapon System (Shotgun)
- Sniper Rifle System 99C-Series 2 Anti-Matériel (Sniper Rifle)
- Type-25 Directed Energy Rifle (Plasma Rifle)
- Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol (Plasma Pistol)
- Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher (Needler)
- Type-1 Antipersonnel grenade (Plasma Grenade)
- M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose Grenade (Frag Grenade)
- Type-33 Light Anti-Armor Weapon (Fuel Rod Gun — not to be confused with Fuel Rod Cannon, which is mounted on Covenant vehicles — is only usable in the PC version of the game)
UNSC Marine[]
Though there is no apparent reason why, the UNSC Marine cannot use the Rocket Launcher. (Test: Swap Assault Rifle meta to the Rocket Launcher in Assault on the Control room, and go to the outdoor part - not the bridge though. The three or so marines there - one will have a Needler, the other a Plasma Rifle, and one marine without a weapon at all because he can't use the Rocket Launcher). However, it is possible by using 'bump possession' cheat to make a marine equip other in game weapons lets say the Rocket Launcher with 4 extra rounds however they will be very inaccurate at firing it and will do the same reloading animations as a spartan player but if you kill the marine the Rocket Launcher will still have 4 extra rounds as if the marine never fired it even if you had seen the marine fire dozens of rounds. This is happens because the marine has infinite ammo.

Hunter[]
The Hunter can only use the Hunter Fuel Rod that is mounted on its arm. In Halo game physics, it is actually a separate model, not part of the Hunter itself. This is technically a different weapon to the Fuel Rod that Grunts use, because they're different weapons in the coding.
