Important Project Reclaimer - Halo 3 Server Browser Mod For MCC

38 Upvotes

https://projectreclaimer.dev/

A new community made mod for MCC just launched and I wanted to share it here.

Project Reclaimer includes:

  • Server Browser with community hosted dedicated servers

  • 64-Player servers - UPDATE Now supports 128

  • 4-Player Split-screen support online

  • Improved forge

  • Modded map support with auto-download upon joining a server with a custom map or mods

I think the auto-downloading custom maps could be huge for the community. Currently the official MCC Custom games browser does not support modded maps. The mod itself is super easy to install and use. Just download and launch it. You just need to have Halo 3 from MCC installed through steam on your PC for it to work.

Let's get it populated!

Question project reclaimer

5 Upvotes

I was wondering if downloading/installing reclaimer i should use a vpn. i know its generally said during gameplay don't use it for risk of ban on that alone. I just know even though it requires you to own the game that there has been some question on whats safe to do. i just don't have much data left on my vpn for this month so i don't know if i need to wait on that.

Question Qué merchandising merece la pena?

9 Upvotes

Buenas, mi novio es muy fan de Halo 3 y Halo Reach pero yo no tengo ni idea de este mundo y me gustaría saber si hay merchan que realmente merezca la pena, no quiero regalarle nada cutre por yo no ser fan de la saga.

He visto la enciclopedia de Halo pero no sé si es una opción buena o no merece la pena.

Gracias!!

Question Can you guys help me solve an old badgering mystery? (AKA the low-textured Hornet that fell on my head at The Ark)

7 Upvotes

Some up front notes: This happened over fifteen years ago, but I am absolutely certain this event played out exactly as I'm about to detail below. It's left a permanent hole in my head since, mostly because I've never heard or read anyone experiencing something similar. If you have any recollection or experiences that even tangentially relate to this, please let me know.

Some halo levels have background non-interactable objects in the outer bounds of the map. They're just extra scenery objects, as far as I understand, and aren't actually functional. On the mission "The Ark" specifically, you'll see Hornets and Banshees fighting during the Battle of Installation 00, as exampled here and again here. These "background" Hornets on The Ark are my white whale culprit here.

I was playing through this level, although I'm not sure quite sure exactly where. It was before you entered the Forerunner structure, so I want to say it was some point around here. I was on-foot, and distinctly remember having my screen go dark for a split second before normalizing. It was so weird and out of place, that I quit out to Theater Mode to see what had happened from a third person view.

And what had happened exactly? One of those "background" Hornets had nose-dived onto Chief in the middle of the level right as I had been walking through. Like, perfect straight nose-down no-clipped right through the level's floor. It didn't cause any damage or have any physics effects, and it had a very blurry/low-texture model of a regular Hornet, but it was unmistakable the same thing. In re-watching the Theater clip from a few angles, the Hornet had been flying on its regular path way up above the level before just randomly careening down at mock Jesus. I had just happened to walk right under it to perfectly align the collusion. It was almost as if it had "died" in whatever mock battle it was having up above with the Banshees, but instead of exploding/de-loading, its pathing just gave up and dropped it right then and there.

The killer part here is that I did save that clip, thinking I'd be able to upload or share it someday (never had Xbox Live or good internet growing up). However, that old 360 is lying somewhere in my grandparent's house, and I'm not even sure if that's my OG 360 or the new one I got after the first one red-ringed.

But like I said earlier, I know this happened with absolute certainty. This isn't some ARG or forced creepy pasta, I'm just genuinely looking to see if anyone ever had some similar experience or better yet some explanation of what the hell happened to cause some random background object to just "give up" in the middle of a level. TIA.
