Welcome to Halo PC!

Instead of modding Halo PC, why don't you download yourself a copy of Halo CE and then grab some custom maps to play on? You can get everything you need, and then some more by following the link in my sig.

If you have any further questions about Halo CE, don't be afraid to ask either here, or at the forums at Halomaps.co.uk...

Once again, welcome aboard :-)

i will answer in bullets:
1. i think what u hear is HALO 2 CE (which isn't allowed to be discussed in this particular section of forum). you will have to download Halo CE (CUSTOM EDITION) to download the Halo2CE maps and mods. their website is www.halo2ce.epgservers.com
2. u of course can make your own maps, but it is not easy at all. u have to program, draw, UV graphics, debug...all that stuff
3. u can use "Edit Gametypes" in Halo to set different gametypes you wish to have, such as all rockets & sniper, etc.

Basically it all comes down to two things...

1) How well the maps are made.
2) How good your computer and internet connection are.

Some maps look absolutely awesome, but are bordering on impossible to play due to one thing or another (usually framerates). The best thing to do is try a few maps out and see how you get on. You really do need to have a reasonable computer to get the most out of Halo CE though in all truth.

Halo CE is Halo PC with the campaign removed and the ability to accept custom maps. It's not that one is better than the other really.

all you need is the halo editing kit if you want to mod that combined with a photoshop should help you make great maps

Hey people!

I also just bought Halo for my PC yesterday and its great online and the campaign. But in all the pics I have seen of halo, theres so much better colour. All the chiefs are grey in multiplay and campaign. Also all the different types of grunts and elites look the same. And theres absolutely no blood at all. Is there a download that I can get that will make the blood and colour look normal?

Thanks!

Welcome to Halo PC. I had the same problem with the graphics as you. I managed to fix the colour problem though. Vectorracer has a download in his signature that gets it to show up. As for the blood? You can turn it on and off in the settings under decals, but if its grayed out your computer specs can't handle it. I'm not sure if you can download something of the net to make the blood appear.
