@Lexinator Hi. The purpose of making the Hunters "so aids to fight" was initially a modification I made to allow the player to pick up the Hunter's Fuel Rod cannon upon death. This lead me to change how his collision model works because, during testing, I was able to one-shot kill him in the back. In my perspective, that ruined the challenge of that character. So I removed the ability to one-shot them. They absolutely still take damage in the back, but just don't die instantly from damage sustained there.

@Burner I didn't know splitscreen was even still possible when I was developing this mod, therefore it was not made with splitscreen in mind. I'm aiming to fix as many issues as I can in the next update. The scopes in splitscreen will be one of them. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, and I'm glad you guys are enjoying the mod! 😊:p2cube:

@Cookies Go to the video settings, and change "HUD Style" to "AUTO." Hope this helps!

This has to be one of the best mods I ever played for Halo 1... This is more fun than SPV3... LOVE the insta kill dagger thing we throw. has saved my life a ton of times on heroic

Sniper rifles are broken on splitscreen when you zoom in, fix it pls! we were having a blast with this!!

@A wild Glaceon This is a V1. The Flood levels will be fixed in future updates. 37 round mag is fine by me: It's a mod... 37 > 36 in my eyes. I never suggested "use bandana skull." Others have, as a temporary solution for the lack of ammo.
A wild Glaceon 11 Aug @ 3:54pm 
I think learning some speedrun glitches would be amazing for skipping some major flood sections. it's such a bore fighting them, and a waste of ammo.
or perhaps just remove the library entirely.

so originally I was gonna give you a rating of 77/100 but now it's looking more like 32/100
A wild Glaceon 11 Aug @ 3:51pm 
so just got back. your reasoning for 37 rounds is silly. it's different if I reload half mag, that would make sense. but empty mag
shouldn't give me 37 because there isn't a bullet in the chamber. also it bursts. one bullet gets left alone.

when I made my last comment, it was before the encounter with flood.
and uhh... weaponless flood is very easy.
and I'm playing on heroic with mythic (and anger. but that no longer affects theml flood) and some other skulls.
the dead space twig was nice tho.

and the nightmare that is library is the least fun I had. in any mod. only beat it thanks to piñata skull. which took like 3 or 4 hours.
there's too few weapons. and on top of that, some have rather little ammo.
if there's more weapons or ammo then I wouldn't be so bothered.
that or having aliens or allies so you have some help or replacement guns.

if your suggestion for lacking ammo is "use bandana skull" then you've failed as a modder. that shouldn't be the fix for such a problem.
A wild Glaceon 11 Aug @ 3:27pm 
there's already a gore mod. I don't remember name

halo 3 also has gore mods. mostly featured in other bigs mods tho.
Chilakiller 10 Aug @ 9:09pm 
you should make a gore mod for vanilla ce without the wapons and stuff. just the regular CE campaign with gore
Killer7[TH] 10 Aug @ 3:41am 
Great mod but i have issue with the maw campaign Ammo are very lowww and scarce i donno what just happen but great mod.

@Cake Wow, thank you very much for your comment!!! The Cake is not lying. 😂 I hope you'll understand the reference I'm trying to make there, lol. *Portal*

It is my pleasure to provide this experience to the world. And I look forward to bringing an even better one in the future! I'm totally gonna keep improving this mod. 😎
TropicalThunder98  [author] 9 Aug @ 6:11pm 
@JDB520815 Thank you so much! I love both of those missions... I wanted to encourage stealth in the beginning of Truth & Reconciliation, but of course that's optional lol. 343 Guilty Spark was so much fun to put together. I'm definitely going to improve on it even more! I really appreciate you writing to me! 🙂 :p2cube:
TropicalThunder98  [author] 9 Aug @ 6:08pm 
@SpaceFilm1992 Thank you!!! :p2cube: I love your comment 😊
TropicalThunder98  [author] 9 Aug @ 6:07pm 
@mmm Futanari mmmm That was the goal! 😂 😎👍🏼 I'm so glad it successfully scared you! :D

@Livvy Dunne Thank you for commenting!! I'm glad you like the mod. 😊:p2cube:

I sampled this mod in a couple of levels and the Library was probably my favorite. The sounds you added gave a whole new feeling in a great and traditional way to Halo. The Flood... o_o They sound very sick and disturbing. It gave me a jump scare I haven't had since my very first encounter with them on my first playthrough in YEARS! Such a joy that you managed to create this mod for a game that is over 20 years old. It feels like another Anniversary. I can't wait to play more and give my further opinion on this mod. :3
Cake 8 Aug @ 6:32pm 
Absolutely fantastic mod, thank you for your hard work on this!
JDB520815 8 Aug @ 5:05pm 
goated mod TNR and 343 are much cooler in this mod
TropicalThunder98  [author] 8 Aug @ 4:36pm 
@jorgeparada881 I'm honestly not planning on adding Flood with weapons back in. It's just how I wanted to see them. I understand what you mean though. Thank you for writing to me!! I really do appreciate your comment & feedback. :p2cube:
TropicalThunder98  [author] 8 Aug @ 1:15pm 
@rangeljhony515 Hi! Sorry, but no...There's no way for me to make an entirely separate version with Flood using weapons. Halo mods aren't designed to be modular. It would require more work than I'm willing to undertake. I understand where you're coming from, but Flood with no weapons are part of my design philosophy for this mod. Thank you so much for the compliment, and for writing to me!! 🙂 :p2cube:
TropicalThunder98  [author] 8 Aug @ 1:09pm 
@A wild Glaceon Thank you! I'm glad you like the throwing knives and dismemberment.

To answer your questions:

1. I changed the Sniper Rifle sound to match the other new weapon sounds: They're updated, and feel satisfying to shoot.

2. The magnum sound is actually the same, but with extra details added to it.

3. Weapons have reused icons because MCC is set up in such a STUPID way. Good news: It's fixed in the next update. There won't be icons, but the name of the weapon will appear instead.

4. I didn't add any new ammo types to not over complicate things. There are some adjustments that need to be made. In future updates, I will make the ammo spread evenly for all weapons.

5. The Battle Rifle actually still has 36 rounds. 37 is one in the chamber.

Thank you for writing to me, and for your feedback! Sorry it's taken me a while to reply.

I LOVE THIS SHIT I EAT IT UP MMMMMMMMMmmmnnnn
TropicalThunder98  [author] 7 Aug @ 9:06am 
@Scattergunsniper Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed the mod. That thing on 343 Guilty Spark actually did come out of Dead Space 3! It's called a "Stalker," but I've renamed it to the "Flood Stalker" for the purpose of my mod. Thank you for writing to me! 🙂
BojorlaXXX 6 Aug @ 10:09am 
Bro, the spook stuff in 343 Guilty Spark made me shit myself
Livvy Dunne 5 Aug @ 9:39pm 
This is the most atrocious mod. This is a "look how they massacred my boy" type mod, but holy shit its fun
TropicalThunder98  [author] 5 Aug @ 6:06pm 
@m0bius Thank you so much for the lovely comment!! I'm really glad you enjoyed! 😊 I have plenty more stuff coming in the future. It's just gonna take some time to get it out there. 😎👍🏼
Custom missions would be a great idea for future mods! To be honest with you, I have already dabbled in that a bit. I will probably release them one day! :p2cube:
TropicalThunder98  [author] 5 Aug @ 5:41pm 
@KuroxLemming Thank you!! I watched Lanhar's video, and omg it was really funny. Glad to hear you are enjoying the mod! 😃 And I wonder what secret weapons you're talking about... 🤫
Roshiro 5 Aug @ 4:10pm 
All these guns and the flood can't use any?
jorgeparada881 5 Aug @ 3:47pm 
yeah, hopefully the flood can use guns again in future updates. They can get stale in levels where they feature heavily. Good mod btw:steamthumbsup::steamhappy:
rangeljhony515 5 Aug @ 9:32am 
just asking is there a way to make a separate version of the mod so the flood can use weapons it doesn't have to be all the new weapons just the standard ones it just feels less fun to fight a enemy that does nothing but runs towards you all the time, other than that this mod is amazing
TropicalThunder98  [author] 4 Aug @ 8:09pm 
@Phantom_Chief Thanks for understanding! 🙂 I just wanna say I really appreciate your replies. I'm happy to read them. You are so welcome for the mod! I'll absolutely continue working on it. More stuff is on the way. It's just gonna take a bit of time. Thank you, and you have a great day too!! :p2cube:
A wild Glaceon 4 Aug @ 7:37pm 
this is quite fun. especially the throwing knives and gib effects.

however I have some gripes (ordered in what bothers me most).
firstly, I'm sorry but what's with changing the sound of the sniper and magnum. it feels wrong shooting those guns and not hearing the sounds I'm used to.
the next 2 are just visual issues.
secondly, a lot of the weapons just have reused icons, I'm out here juggling between weapons trying to pick up 1 specific gun.
third most, along with sharing icons, they will share ammo counts with other weapons even tho it's inaccurate info.
lastly, why does the BR55 have 37 rounds?

this is good tho. I'll definitely return to it
Scattergunsniper 3 Aug @ 11:35pm 
This mod has been alot of fun, i am still playing it even as I type this out having reached The Library level. But thusly I ask.....WHAT the Hell was that THING in 343 Guilty spark that looked like it came outta Dead Space?!
m0bius 3 Aug @ 2:43pm 
A bonkers mod and I love it, I can't wait to see what comes from you in the near future, MW weapons, vortagaunts and other wacky surprises made this mod excellent,
since we saw an AH-1Z viper in the campaign, I'd love to see custom missions with F/A-18E Super Hornets or some other crazy stuff in the near future, keep up the great work
KuroxLemming 3 Aug @ 1:22pm 
Good mod :steamthumbsup:

Lanhar Vids showed me the mod and enjoying it some of the secret weapons are nuts :auimp:
Phantom_Chief 3 Aug @ 12:50pm 
@TropicalThunder98 I totally understand, but I will always love this mod, even if its just for Halo 1. Thank you for this mod and I encourage you to keep working on this mod and other mods you have planed in the future. Have a great day!
TropicalThunder98  [author] 3 Aug @ 11:33am 
@Phantom_Chief Hi! Thank you so much for the compliments, and high rating! I totally understand where you're coming from. That's actually not a bug, but it's a prototype "skydive/parachute" mechanic I was working on. It will be removed in the next update due to engine limits.

I'd love to make this sort of thing for the other Halo's, but I can't feasibly spend the human resources. This mod took 3 years to get where it's at. It's so much time, work, energy, and I have no financial support. So with that said, I will continue to develop this project as I've poured so much passion into it. Hope you understand. Thanks again, and have a good day!
TropicalThunder98  [author] 3 Aug @ 11:21am 
@YahBoiFabio Hi! Thank you so much for getting back to me, and with such a lovely comment! I really do appreciate your feedback, and rating. It's an honor to read. I'll definitely be improving this mod with more time. 🙂 Until then, I hope you continue to enjoy and have a lovely day!
TropicalThunder98  [author] 3 Aug @ 11:18am 
@Riflemen526 I'm so happy I could make 343 Guilty Spark a genuinely scary experience again!! I'm totally gonna add more horror to that level, and others too. Thank you so much for commenting, and for your high rating! 😊
TropicalThunder98  [author] 3 Aug @ 9:58am 
@Vapor Shiroshi Hi! I will absolutely consider adding more new vehicles. About the horn not working properly: This mod was not designed for CO-OP 100% yet. I wasn't able to test CO-OP functionality alone, but I will be fixing that in future updates. Thank you so much for the suggestion, and the bug report! And I hope you enjoy the mod otherwise! 😊 :p2cube:
Phantom_Chief 2 Aug @ 10:43pm 
@TropicalThunder98 The campaign is great, it's a definitely 10/10. There is a bug tho that I don't like. Whenever I get out of the helicopter, i keep free falling for such a long time, even tho i'm on the ground. But other than that bug, the graphics are wonderful, the gore is crazy good, the weapons are fun to shoot, and the vehicles are great. You should convert this mod into the other 5 halos in MCC.
YahBoiFabio 2 Aug @ 5:52pm 
@TropicalThunder98 lol Im glad, its very high quality, very fun, and VERY cursed. 10/10
TropicalThunder98  [author] 2 Aug @ 5:36pm 
@hoonting cat Hi! Thank you for reporting it. A couple others have said the same thing. So I'll have to adjust that. Also, thank you so much for the compliments! I'm absolutely going to continue working on this project. I have a ton of support, and I really appreciate your feedback too! 😊 :p2cube: Hope you have a great weekend!
TropicalThunder98  [author] 2 Aug @ 4:15pm 
@Phantom_Chief Hi! Download Halo CE: Multiplayer inside MCC. You need it to play campaign mods. I hope this helps!
Phantom_Chief 2 Aug @ 2:19pm 
i try to play the mod, but once i start the mission, the loading screen freezes even tho the loading bar is full. Is there a way to fix this problem so i can play the mod?
