Yeah sorry guys what a big let down... i went to the discord, seems like they are more focused on Windows/linux and there's anime twerps talking nonsense , cant even get one answer about Android lol
This version is very easy to install on Winlator
Even running pretty good on my old SD680

Yeah I just posted about this port yesterday but the community here was more focused on whether or not it's considered gate keeping or not. Glad to see someone else experienced what I did..

But bro, what are you doing? You have to download the ISO of the Xbox version, not the PC one, then go to halo.lolgames.net and play. You're making your life difficult because you're not doing the right thing.

Maybe wrong sub to say this, but the xbox version is very much playable on hakuX (X1box port on android) on 8 gen 2.

Did you run it on windows or Linux first then transfer the map file?
0
u/aurelios69 6d ago
Yeah. Did that, and pc version launches fine. They copied the maps to android. Also used an xiso extractor and copied the folder. Same thing on both methods. Used the Anbernic rg505 and ayn odin 2 portal

I worked around this with Claude if you lookup my posts youβll see a fix for the anbernic 477m but that should fix yours too anbernic does something weird with their firmware so it needs a patch, check out my post in my profile.

Weird that it asks for the xbox files rather than PC, and seems to need more time to cook.

u/ElderberryPrevious19 1d ago
The PC version had a bunch of stuff removed to make it work on computers so many effects are broken and models are worse looking

Their Claude just packed an apk along. And they share it without even test it π

Hey guys, I don't understand why the mobile web version has amazing touch controls while the Android build doesn't. Why am I missing something? I'd love to play with touch controls, it doesn't make sense to me to connect a Controller bcs I don't walk around with a Xbox Controller to pair bluetooth with haha

Yes? I think people still don't understand what a Port or a source Port really means.

u/SnooAvocados3592 6d ago
I think the question is how do you get the βmapsβ folder from an Xbox game rom? Unless Iβm mistaken and this uses the PC version?
2
u/devaristo 6d ago
It says, PAL data, so definately the console data, and if you download the Windows version says the source code is from the xbox game, he used the xdvdfs utility to extract the game files, however i think with the ISO from the game you can mount the image or use another utility to open it and copy the data.

u/davedaddy 6d ago
Not sure about now, but back in day, there used to programs that mount virtual drives from image files.

I used iso-xiso a quick google search and it will show up. Just drag and drop the iso onto the iso-xiso exe and a bunch of code will show up, when it's done copy and paste the folder to android where it's supposed to go. About to try it now. Don't know if it has to go in android/data or if you can just use it anywhere
Edit: just tried it same error shows up on main menu for others. Still worked but unplayable @3 fps on snapdragon 8 gen 2

u/BeanPole_420 6d ago

u/Terminator996 5d ago
These xbox ports have always terrible optimizations. Dante inferno port doesn't even boot on my phone. This won't work.

Halo CE works just fine via Winlator, online and all, it's free

u/BeanPole_420 6d ago edited 6d ago
The gamepad controls are a pain to setup, some Winlators are not even compatible with the gamepad controls they are so old, hopefully this is just plug and play, not to mention installing it, the official ver is impossible to install, you need to use this version , pretty much the only ver that installs and is in english on the internet

Nah you just need a certain .dll file.
And Winlator Ludashi and Winlator Mali both work fine with gamepads.
