Something smells fishy...

Does anyone know how to put special characters (as in symbols) into one's Halo 1 PC name?

Hold alt and press the numbers, then it should create a symbol. However, not all of those are in Halo, but most of them should work.

The numlock and alt combination did not work for me. I don't know why. What did work was: I pressed numlock then pressed various letters. I was only able to use a very limited amount of symbols. So Essentially your method did not work for me (not saying that your method doesn't work).

I also tried editing the blam.sav file in notepad in
My Documents/My Games/Halo/savedgames/"profile name" That did not reap any results either.

In searching the internet with Google I'm having trouble finding other instances of people trying to put special characters in their Halo profile name.

So I was wondering if you had anymore ideas :)
