SPV3 (Short for "Single Player Version 3") is the third iteration of an extensive campaign modification for Halo: Combat Evolved's Custom Edition for PC. The project presents itself as a "reimagining" of Combat Evolved, incorporating elements from the main series and spinoff games (including some content cut from final release), expanded material such as the novels, and original content including new weapons and expanded levels. The project is spearheaded by Masterz 1337, the head of CMT (Custom Mapping Team) with its remastered and original soundtracks composed by Jafet Meza.

The mod itself is divided into several unique gameplay experiences:

Installation 04 - An overhaul of the original ten campaign levels of Halo: Combat Evolved, complemented by an additional four original levels. The Silent Cartographer: Evolved - An overhaul the original The Silent Cartographer mission, featuring a completely unique level layout and redone encounters. Advertisement: None Left Behind - An original mission that revisits the mission Halo. Taking place after the mission Keyes, the Master Chief assists with evacuating the last few survivors of UNSC personell from Alpha Base. The Commander and The Commander: Evolved, original missions that revisit The Silent Cartographer and The Silent Cartographer: Evolved. Occurring concurrently with The Maw, the Flood has taken root within the heart of Installation 04's Cartographer, gleaning the data stored in the facility to further expediate its infestation of the ring. Supreme Commander of the Covenant's Fleet of Particular Justice Thel' Vadamee, accompanied by Special Operations Commander Rtas 'Vadumee and Ascetic Usze 'Tahamee, is tasked with carving through to the heart of the Flood hive in a desperate bit to purge the parasite from the Cartographer and slow its spread throughout Halo.

Firefight - A dedicated Firefight mode that incorporates elements featured in the above two campaigns.

SPV3.1 (previously referred to as SPV3 Part 2), released in August 2017. Added the second half of the Installation 04 Campaign (collectively titled Outbreak) with multiple changes, additions and bugfixes backported into the Landfall missions.
