Even if they "healthy" hacks, discussion of them in the maw forum is prohibited. Tread carefully in the ninja's shadow.

If you're looking to just do some simple mods to PC, try downloading Custom Edition. It lets you play with modding weapons easily. You know: shotguns firing fuel rod bursts or sniper rifles that shoot tanks shells; user created maps and Halo 2 CE.

There may even be ways to tweak your own view so you get those "text hacks". I know you can DL custom recticles for things like the snipr rifle. Somewhere, out in the wide world of CE, there's someone whose played with his text settings so he can read the fine print. But these will not be seen by other users unless you create a new mod and map to set them in.

Start at http://www.halomaps.co.uk and ask for some help there. Make sure you ask for a MOD though. Asking for a "hack" puts people in the wrong frame of mind from the get go.

there is a way to edit the in-game font without some stupid program that you need to download. if you look through your hard drive, go to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\CONTENT" (unless you have something different). choose the two .ksml files with the vertical resolution you use (if you use 640x480, look for the two files with 480 in the name). you need some understanding of HTML or something like that, because that's what the file looks like.

It can change the font and size so if your near sighted or something it will be easier to read, I guess. I have it, I googled it.

Well, if you can't really read the text too well (don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you are,) in the game, then how the heck do you kill someone?
