⚠️ WORK IN PROGRESS 🚧
This is a V1 release. Please do not expect a complete product.
With that said, I hope you enjoy what there is to play with!

Troubleshooting
The maps won't load! I'm stuck on the loading screen.
- Install Halo CE: Multiplayer. You need it to play campaign mods.

Does the mod work with CO-OP?
- Yes, but I didn't finish making this coop compatible. You can still play it CO-OP though.

There's a black box in my crosshair!
- Go to the video settings, and change "HUD Style" to "AUTO."
Remastered HUD causes the black box.

I had such a blast with this mod, I would like to see the iron sights updated in some way but they are a really fun feature to play with as is. Thank you for making this

This mod is a definitive way to play Halo Combat Evolved! A few bugs here and there but its super worth the play. In Co-Op i accidentally got a close up jump scare of a Flood running across the doorway on 343 Guilty Spark. Haven't had such a scare since I first experienced The Flood. Things like this is what makes CE so enjoyable. I love the additions to the environment sounds and alarms you hear in the Library. I cried at the end even harder, not just because I destroyed Halo, but also the Elk on the surface. :*)

Lastly, there is one thing I had issue with... The Chaingun on the Warthog seems very inaccurate. My Co-op companion mentioned a few times that it seemed to be less powerful than the original. Made it difficult to gun down the Covenant.

Played the whole campaign on heroic with very few bugs other than the softlock from destroying dropships before they unload, genuinely a great mod. You might have heard this already and it might even be by design but I had to melee my way through a good portion of the second half of the game due to the lack of any enemies that actually carried weapons. if this is how it was intended than still a great mod but if it wasn't than my suggestion would be to add more of the modded weapons in the later levels either by finding them or have more enemies carry them. Either way one of the best mods I've played

@ItsBhoy Thank you! 😊

@Oxyaction Thank you for reporting this! I will have to look into it more because I've tested this several times and haven't ever encountered a softlock.

Thanks for the reply. I’m hooked on these guns, Assault on the Control Room especially hits different with a whole armory at the start. I was thinking it’d be cool to add “insurgents” that use the modded weapons, in to a mission like AOTCR or Truth and Reconciliation, or even hostile marines on 343 Guilty Spark or Keyes with the scared marine flood dialogue. Just ideas, but the modern weapons feel perfect for it. The other map ideas sound awesome too, I’ll keep an eye out. Here is my stream playing this mod, edited to a regular video for anyone who wants to see. Thanks again for this awesome mod. :) https://youtu.be/JUoq-ZeEjyw

how does it work

amazing mod. loved every moment of it. just one change would make this mod make it more enjoyable : give back weapons to the flood for more access as some missions starved me for ammo. overall 9/10
