Hello Chlargon the mod is really fun I play Halo 2 every day with great pleasure thank you! on the other hand it's really a shame that in High Charity there are no allies like in the mod you made "High Charity - Mercy of the Gravemind Edition" if one day you manage to add allies in this mission compatible with the update it would be really great because your future mod can no longer be broken now because you just need to have the 3 specific files in steamapps which allows a user to play steam games in the folders without an internet connection, and your mods will be immortalized and frozen forever

YAY THANK YOU

Mod is now updated and should work with the latest patch of Halo: MCC (September 17th, 2025)

It would be real cool if this was updated.

Will you be updating the mod to modern MCC since it is not showing up in the mod list in game?

Does this mod add new weapons? Or does it just it mostly just increase the variety of what's already there? Asking because removing the assault rifle was halo 2's biggest mistake to me. Favorite gun across the series.

Hi Chlargon;
great mod, thank you for the satisfaction you offer us all. i used to play it some 18 months ago with anniversary graphics and it was so enjoyable. I came back to it some days ago and the anniversary graphics are not available anymore. i tried to unsubscribe and subscribe again but it is useless, i tried to unload it from nexus and paste manually the mod in the halo 2 data but still the old graph are here... if there is any kind of update possible you are thinking about it would be so cool ! hope you're still in the mood for it. i played halo when it comes out in 2004 but i admitt our eyes are now too used to new gen graphics ( : thanks !!

Just to add to what defazi said, if you edit files like this, make sure you are running with Anti cheat disabled. When he said run like normal he meant Run the game with anti cheat disabled, then go to your normal Halo 2 campaign and play the map and it should be the modded one instead with available anniversary graphics. Never ever run your game with modified files with Anti cheat enabled or you can get VAC + Xbox banned on both potentially

@Ganon there is literally a solution posted, 4 comments below what you posted.
Go to Workshop mod file > copy maps > copy to MCC halo 2 maps and replace (do a backup first) > replace > start Halo 2 normally

So is there no way to have the HD graphics? Great mod but cant stand original halo2 graphics.

is there anyway you could make this campaign but with double the ammo for kinetic weapons?(human)

my favorite halo 2 campaign mod. is it ok if u can add even more enemies and allies for every map? I WANT A WORLD WAR

@Professorlicme8 Yes if you copy the files over there's no reason why Anniversary graphics shouldn't work. When I'm making and testing the mods the Anniversary graphics work fine, the only things that don't work are the UNSC techs from The Armory and the Flood Juggernauts on High Charity, these two NPCs don't have Anniversary textures so they just show up grey.
Also, if you want to make your own mods using this mod as a template, feel free :)

The GOAT Halo 2 mod. Quick question, if I go to the workshop files for this mod and I copy the map files over the actual Halo 2 map files will that let me run this mod with anniversary graphics? or would it just crash or something?

Works like a charm. Love this mod :)

Mod is now updated as of 03/03/2025, it should be working again :)

Mod is currently broken as of the February MCC update - currently working on a fix. Hopefully it won't be long, though I might have to re-upload the mod as a new workshop file as the MCC Mod Uploader is being most unhelpful

No longer works with the latest update. Like many other mods with this update. The campaign no longer appears in the menu. Lovely mod, I was 3 missions in. A shame about the update.

why is there no cutscene on armory

- Increased ally NPC numbers throughout the campaign
- More Female Marines
- More ODSTs
- Added more variety to ally and enemy weapons
- More dual-wielding Elites
- Enemies wield a more diverse variety of weapons
- Added several unused encounters throughout the campaign
- More variety in allied NPC spawns throughout the campain
- Wraith turrets now work for the players
- Shadows are now driveable

what does this mod exactly do?

Update notes?

Absolutely loved this enhanced version! Having all the extra elites and humans is crazy good and loved the detail of jackals teaming up with you for a moment :)

I just completed it and the the only issue I encountered was once you beat the final campaign (after post cutscene), it just reloads the final mission again and remains stuck on the loading screen.

In the mission regret during the cut scene there's a marine that keeps on hitting you.

animelife method work for me for classic and anniversary, also its fix with subtitles

Do you need multiplayer to play this?

this & H2 w/ Sprinkles are goated

this is crashing now when I load and play a saved game...takes less than 10 seconds to crash... only started 2 days ago

I did found a way to play this in anniversary graphics, but ur gonna have to do same way when u download mods from nexus and u copy and paste them to halo 2 folder. All u have to do is to go C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\976730\3010363246\Maps or if u have extra storage device and u place halo in that storage then that's same thing. But before u copy and paste those maps files to h2_maps_win64_dx11, make sure u make a backup folder and copy and paste non-modded halo 2 map files to the backup folder. And after that, u can now copy and paste the modded map files to the h2_maps_win64_dx11. And then boom. At first, I thought it won't work but surprisingly it did and I was shocked. Hope this helps out for people who wants to play in anniversary graphics.

How the hell did you add npc spawns to later sections of maps? I could always add Ai in the first section of a campaign map but they would never spawn in the next load zones. Can you tell me your secret.

does this work in anniversary graphics?

Played it on normal....do we have to play it on heroic I haven't noticed anything really all that different then again I just started the arbitors arc but before that I haven't really noticed anything that different.

No mod works with anniversary graphics unfortunately.

Does this work with Anniversary Graphics?

Whenever I try to launch a mission it just goes to a black screen and never loads in, can anyone help?

@Sn0w H4mm3r
People actually play with the anniversary graphics?? How do you see anything in gameplay? It makes everything unnecessarily bright and completely ruins the lighting.

yipiiii, thx

well ummmm, can u update it plz?

Given the fact that anniversary graphics are unfortunately disabled for the workshop version, any chance of an update for the nexus version? I tried replacing this mod's .map files with the ones from the nexus version but that leads to a crash unfortunately which I believe is because the nexus version is older than this one. Thought I'd ask here since there is more activity going on in here as opposed to nexus.

We need something like for all halo's with a spawner to go with it.

this is such bullshit when bungie released the game it was so bad because we mod creators make it better and they can't come up with something cool like for others mod like arbiter, great journey, and outskirts modded were fucking dope

I can't seem to get this playable for me, it's not showing up. Am I doing something wrong?

Yoo! Lovin the mod so far! Right now I'm on Quarantine Zone, and I'm wondering if it would be possible to have all the elites attracted to the spectres? Some of them aren't responsive and won't get on the spectres that are being manned by other elites. Keep up the good work!

Is there a way to play anniversary graphics?

when are you gonna update The Banished Invade High Charity mod?

ngl i download This mod if it was halo 3 to

this mod is fire

@ge3mo_715 I would love to add Elites to High Charity but unfortunately their tags don't exist in the level, and one of the core aspects of the mod is that there's no custom content or alterations to the level file itself (I'm using Assembly not the main mod tools) so I'm not able to add them
Though it occurs to me that, since the Anniversary graphics are disabled on the workshop mod, I could add the Flood Juggernaut to High Charity with just a few tweaks

We need elites in high charity mission for pls it would be lore wise and it would be fun seeing flood elites and brutes fighting each other

so to play this mod but with new graphics I need the nexus version?
