If you drop this new Strings.dll into your HaloCE root directory and replace the old one, you should see a new message of the day when you go to the HaloCE lobby. If this becomes used enough I think it would be awesome to frequently update the message of the day with useful information and announcements.



Special thanks to Timo for changing the URL in the dll.

Enjoy!
CMT and H2V are using this to give you updates about H2vista, as well as new CMT progress from the server list in haloce. Simply put this in your ce directory!

I haven't used the gamespy lobby in Halo for like a year. I don't even remember what it looks like lol!

Heh, I can open up the Strings.dll in Microsoft Visual Studio, and edit the strings (text) there myself. And even some image resources, and window lay-outs (like when an exception is launched) :P

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Anything's better than the old "manual update required!" that throws off so many newcomers. I dropped that replacement DLL in and it works fine. Do we get a joke of the day? How bout some excerpts from Unix fortune? Some BOFH! Thanks.
