Hi All,

This is a 1-day advance warning that we'll be releasing a hotfix to Halo PC (v 1.05) sometime tomorrow. No feature changes, just two fixes:

1. Security fix to prevent a malicious user from being able to shut down the game on the server (never yet exploited, that we know of)
2. Fix for the XP SP2 problems as noted in my other recent thread on The Maw forum here on www.bungie.net.

If you would like to get your dedicated servers ready, here is the download:
Halo PC 1.05 Dedicated Server.

I'll be sending the corresponding hotfix for Halo CE (to v. 1.05 to stay consistent) to Gearbox tomorrow also, please see their forums at that time for download instructions. (I'll set Halo CE to auto-update also, if Gearbox has a codesigning certificate available (I'm not sure). If they don't, I will refrain from having it auto-update, for the protection of the users, who we don't want to encourage to run unsigned bits that are pushed to them, due to the risk of spoofing.)

Feel free to copy this post to the Gearbox forums - I never got around to setting up an account there :-)

As I just posted on teh other thread, for the couple of you who still have problems on SP2 after trying all the fixes, you might also try unloading other running apps (including ones in the system tray).

What my fixes have done is move DLLs from the "middle" of memory off to the "edges", to allow the game's video system to have a big free chunk in the middle. But if you have other apps getting in the way that I can't patch, then you'll still have the problem.

Apparently there was a Halo PC update but no mac fix. I can
only see 17 servers with 70 players and the update released
from microsoft appears to be the problem?

I have the latest Mac version 1.05, and I realize the new fix makes PC 1.05,
but I think its screwing with my ability to find servers, I usually see 100's & thousands of players...?
