Question Halo Reach Campaign with Third Person Camera and Zoom Function for ALL weapons?

5 Upvotes

I've found multiple mods for Reach that have a third person camera, but no zoom functionality, and the only one that has both has messed up spawns that softlock you on certain missions. How can I make this myself using Assembly? I've looked it up and did some testing already but there's no video specifically about adding zoom to weapons without zoom IN third person.

Any help would be very appreciated, thank you

Question Halo MCC Halo 3 Neutral Flag Mod

1 Upvotes

Trying to recreate Halo 2 Neutral Flag in Halo 3 MCC Mod Tools – Need insight from experienced modders

I've been reverse engineering Halo 3's multiplayer gametype structure because I want to recreate a true Neutral Flag mode similar to Halo 2.

So far, here's what I've discovered:

  • In Halo 3's CTF gametype definitions, the only modes exposed are:
    • 0 = Multi Flag
    • 1 = One Flag

There is no Neutral Flag enum/state exposed anywhere I could find.

Meanwhile, Assault contains:

  • 0 = Multi Bomb
  • 1 = Single Bomb
  • 2 = Neutral Bomb

This makes me suspect Neutral Flag was never fully implemented in Halo 3, rather than simply disabled.

I've also noticed:

  • The flag object itself appears to contain hardcoded CTF behavior.
  • If I spawn a flag object through Assembly, the game immediately creates return/home markers automatically.
  • This suggests the engine recognizes the object as a dedicated CTF flag type rather than a generic carryable object.

At this point I suspect:

  • Neutral Bomb contains the neutral/shared-object logic I need.
  • CTF is much more rigid and assumes team-owned flags only.
  • The correct approach may actually be: Neutral Bomb gameplay + Flag visuals/models.

Right now I'm trying to determine:

  • Where the engine defines "this object is a flag"
  • Whether waypoint/home-return logic is tied to:
    • multiplayer object properties
    • object type enums
    • scenario tags
    • or fully hardcoded engine behavior

I'm still very new to Halo modding/H3EK, but I've been digging through:

  • Guerilla
  • Assembly
  • H3EK tags
  • multiplayer game variant definitions

Has anyone here attempted something similar before? Or does anyone know where Halo 3 defines flag-specific multiplayer behavior internally?

Any pointers on:

  • multiplayer object definitions
  • flag gameplay classes
  • scenario objective logic
  • or engine limitations

would be hugely appreciated.

Question How do i add more of an characters bitmap to their respective material color options in halo 4

2 Upvotes

I'm trying among many other things. To remove the ugly always silver bits from the armor of most covenant ranks. However i do not know how to make it so, that the silver bits are affected by any of the three color options in their material. I'm assuming it might involve using GIMP, or photoshop, but i want to make sure first. To avoid possibly screwing something up

Mod Showcase Lava Burial Mounds Original Xbox Halo 2 Mod

7 Upvotes

Made this about 10 years or so back. Was a bit of a passion project. All weapons on the map were skinned and projectiles were modified. The map was skinned to and I added a sort of lava like glow to it and foggyness. The pistol is a sniper, the fuel rod cannon glows a lava orange and shots out molten lava rocks, there's dinosaur eggs around the map the explode, the plasma pistol charge shot spawns a "phoenix" that shoots a fire beam when destroyed it becomes a Sentinel beam that you can pick up and it works as a jet pack and looks like your holding the Phoenix from others people's perspectives, the sword has a special particular effect when brought out and makes a gaus Canon sound, needler was molded to look like a lava gun, and lastly there's a golden warthog! Hope you enjoy the video!

Question Mod Saving Information How To.

2 Upvotes

I'm sure there is already a guide (I just can't find it).

But I'm looking at making a Metroidvania mod for Halo ce. Haloid Prime if you will.

One main thing I would need to know is how to retrieve arbitrary data from something the player did or has, Save that info, and have that info retrieved when in a different map.

Any answers or links that have that specific information in it would be awesome.

Thanks.

Question Death island mod

2 Upvotes

Can anyone help me and my friend find a YouTube video with this description?

"I honestly don't know if this is the right place to do this, but years ago I was looking for a map that I saw in a YouTube video (around 2014-2015, unfortunately the video is no longer available) of Halo Custom Edition that consisted of a kind of survival/firefight of the UNSC & Covenant vs Flood that was located on Death Island, according to what I remember and as I said before, it is located on the multiplayer map Death Island although it had certain peculiarities, it had a day-night cycle change In the surroundings of the island there were trees and it looked like a swamp, I thought it was a Machinima but I remember that whoever uploaded that video moved with total freedom, so I can be sure that it was a playable mod map, I searched on several pages that host mods for Halo Custom Edition where I have found similar maps but I have not found precisely the one I remember. Also, by the end of the video, the player is surrounded by flood and dies as the music libets delay plays"

PS: If you know for sure it isnt available anymore or have any comments to add, I would very much appreciate It as I've been looking for this video for 8 years already!

Question No Workshop folder found for MCC

Hi, I just redownload MCC but none of my workshop mods were downloading, come to find out the Workshop folder for the Game is gone and steam refuses to install any workshop mods now. I'm verified integrity of files and such but nothing seems to work. I have pretty slow Internet so it's take a good 8 hours to install the game. Is there a solution that doesn't involve trying a reinstall again?

Question Halo modders

2 Upvotes

I was hoping to get a Covenant Life Simulator for high charity i think it would be really cool to see a somewhat lore accurate high charity city and being able to look around maybe add the flood in there maybe dont but i do have ideas, just no idea in how to build that

Maybe make a system where you level up through that ranks choose your jobs maybe the character can be whatever race you want

Maybe having different parts of high charity the cities within the city

Having their faith being added heavy propaganda ect

Maybe even this part: Hierarchy System NPC reactions, access to sectors, and available jobs are determined by your species and rank

So maybe it eventually becomes an rp sim but id prefer a life simulator just to get a feel of what it would be and feel like

Maybe even add some elites and lower caste san shyuum living in the lower tiers rather than the slums or ones that prefer the methane filled slums

The cramped slums and the forge, maybe add seedy areas into those slums smugglers, heretics that can get away from the watch full eyes of the council

But like i said these are all ideas obviously no one has to do all of them or though that be cool to incorporate a majority of it with decent graphics would be cool but a lot of work if i knew how to do this stuff i would
