Conclusion:

If you decide to use either of these builds, you will need to revert to a completely FRESH installation of Halo Online (which can be found at the subreddit) if you want to update to the newest version via. the launcher whenever it releases. Alternatively, you can just wait for me to upload an updated build with any compatible modifications pre-installed as well.Hello everyone, today I am showcasing my fully modified builds of Halo Online. These builds are completely ready to go right after downloading. I have made the process almost as easy as installing a game from Steam! (With some extra bonus features of course)It's simple! The "Official Download" is sometimes hard to find and requires you to download and copy over several components to even get it working properly. With these two builds I have taken out all of the hard work for you, so that you can just get to enjoying the game straight away!Another reason I do this is so that the community can expand its horizons even further by having access to custom maps like Flatgrass and Hang 'Em High without needing to install them on their own! These builds are especially good for people who wish to host their own servers as well because they have all of the custom forge maps / gametypes that the community loves to play!- Use this version if you want to relive the nostalgia of Halo 3. This version includes dany5639's "Halo 3 Armors" and "Halo 3 Weapons Pack" modifications plus field_of_vigird's "Centered Viewmodels" mod, a13x231's "Halo 3 HUD" mod, and a few various other tweaks that cater to those who desire a Halo Online experience that comes as close to Halo 3 as possible.- Use this version if you like Halo Online just the way it is, but still want all of the extra bonus content that modifications bring. This version keeps the original Halo Online HUD (with some important fixes), Armors and Weapon Models intact, as well as the original Weapon Viewmodels. This version is for those who enjoy the vanilla Halo Online visuals as they are.1.) Assassination Animation Removal --Shad0wShayd32.) AirGlow V1.6 --8Phantasm3.) LOD MOD V1.0 --8Phantasm4.)

"The forge saving menu is missing / skipped and I cannot save my map!"Answer: Please see the "Extra Modifications" section of the README.txt to solve this issue!2.) "I can no longer launch the game via. double-clicking "eldorado.exe" as it gives me a message saying that I must launch the game from the launcher. What can I do?"Answer: Simply open "dewrito_prefs.cfg" with a text editor (e.g. Notepad) and change the line "Game.SkipLauncher "0"" to "Game.SkipLauncher "1"". Now you can launch the game from eldorado.exe again!After downloading beto read the "README.txt" otherwise you may experience some unexpected issues that could easily be avoided. Plus, the README file for these builds is very in-depth and has a TON of great information for new players and veteran players alike, especially if you are interested in hosting a Halo Online server.NO LONGER SUPPORTEDNO LONGER SUPPORTEDBoth Versions: Updated to "Ultimate Server Hosts Starter Pack V1.5" and added a new "EXTRAS" folder to allow users to handle some aspects of the pack on their own such as the 21:9 aspect ratio and Forge Menus.[COMPLETE EDITION]: Updated the "Halo 3 Armors" mod from V2.5 to V2.7.4 which looks WAY better with the improved shaders. Be sure to check it out!Again, be sure to read the README.txt when downloading either of my builds. There isof useful information inside of it that I am not going to post here due to length concerns.
