Halo 2 Battlegrounds (Outskirts)

Best played in normal with flying skull.

After hours of painful work I'm happy to release my first mod : Halo 2 Battlegrounds.
This mod features tons of new assets : weapons, vehicles, ennemies, sceneries, and also some scripted encounter in mission 2 : outskirts.
Added ennemies to have more opportunities to test these new toys.

Before playing the mod, be sure to :

Have your game in english (UI and voice)
Have both Halo 2 campaign and multiplayer installed
Have turned off subtitle

The map ends sooner than in retail, Bungie made a terrible work on this map and it is barely moddable, for instance if I add a new ennemy or weapon or vehicle player won't see anymore his arms and legs. Also I had to modify .exe of modding tools to be able to add more stuff than 343 expected.
