Halo CE: Legendary Consolidation

Vanilla CE but every difficulty is Legendary with different Enemy Damage multipliers.

Also includes a bugfix for a certain MCC Vanilla CE visual bug.
Spoilered for those who prefer to not know about said visual bug.
Fog is now synced to move the right amount with changes to the player's look direction.

For all that Halo CE does right in its design, there are way too many poorly conceived changes between Vanilla CE difficulties, as the three lower difficulties egregiously nullify several aspects of combat design (such as a consistent combat pace and tactical aggression) that are much more well-honed on CE Legendary, with increasing levels of severity the lower you go.

The Vanilla CE difficulty roster causes many people to perceive and experience Halo CE as a more shallow game than it is on Legendary, so the core point of this mod is to rectify this issue via a much simpler and better form of Halo CE difficulty design. The idea is to take the engaging high quality combat design of CE Legendary and make various softer and more accessible forms of it for players of all skill levels via a consolidation redesign of the three lower difficulties around CE Legendary, while also turning Legendary itself into a modest bonus difficulty to provide some extra spice for skilled players. Though I would also recommend that skilled players try out some of the lower LC difficulties as well, as they are chill alternative ways to experience CE Legendary combat design and can even make some of the more extreme combat encounters work better as balanced gameplay experiences than they do on Vanilla CE Legendary.

With each difficulty in this mod being a simulation of CE Legendary, some difficulty-specific aspects of the game (such as certain scripted events) do end up being left behind as a tradeoff. On the flip side however, this difficulty redesign approach ends Vanilla CE's accidental gatekeeping of its best form, expanding player access to the rather intricate CE Legendary core of Halo CE's combat design while lower difficulty players in particular get a much smoother path for developing gameplay skills that carry over to the higher difficulties.

The way this mod was achieved was by tuning all the global variables (except Enemy Damage) to Legendary values, checking and changing every single squad in the game so that every difficulty spawns Legendary numbers of NPCs, and modifying level scripts so that there are no more difficulty specific scripts and instead everything that's scripted from gameplay to cutscenes always acts like you're playing on Legendary.

These bugfixes can be found in this mod's Nexus page for the use of other modders,
linked below near the bottom of this description.

Every change mentioned above is in accordance to Vanilla CE Legendary.




The tags and data are in LC mod's Nexus page for anyone's use in other mods, as the LC difficulty roster can for example serve as a foundation for overhaul mods in which a more consistent gameplay experience across difficulties is a high priority.[www.nexusmods.com]

Note: Please include in your comments which difficulty or difficulties you mainly played this mod on. This adds useful context for everyone, as this mod is all about adding four new distinct difficulty experiences to Halo CE.
