Seriously. The fact that I have to change my Windows'/PC's region to change a game's language and that there's no file integrity check or move game/folder option is really annoying. I also can't check what version

Heads up: MS is fully embracing modding for Halo PC - Introducing a bypass for anticheat specifically for modding
- Thread starter Umbrella Carp
- Start date
VR doesn't do anything for me, but I hope that you guys get a great experience.
I'm personally interested in anything that is AI. Let me spawn a few hundred on MP maps and I'll be happy. lol :D
You know what? Now that I think about it I'd be willing to pay for a Gamepass at an increased price "to make up for the "Valve cut" if it was on Steam, while in its current form I doubt I'll be willing to renew it when this [basically] free trial expires.
not 100% true - developers have options now, and is a bit messy but a few games have installed in a "normal" fashion
What games do that? I have seen that "ModifiableWindowsApps" folder but it's always empty. Even Age of Empires 2 DE with its website based mod support gets installed in the no-mods-allowed folder.
I have:
Creature in the Well
Info the Breach
Riverbond
In the "ModifiableWindowsApps" folder (not a good number to be sure, but it exists)
Could something like full custom missions be done? Like using campaign levels and putting in your own events and objectives?
This could be insane if it finds the right audience.

Ah true man of culture indeed.
Are AI enemies expected to be a usable option for modding / Forge? I'm just imagining custom maps where you have 16 people on one team fighting against massive hoards of enemies.

Well we already know you can actually control them, so presumably you can program them
I still don't understand why they removed splitscreen from the PC version.
If only there was some kind of official accesory created by Microsoft that allowed multiple Xbox One controllers to be connected wirelesly to a PC...

Using that right now.
I remember people doing this type of thing in Halo 1 and 2 , I think the main issue is that the AI isn't particularly bright by itself and a lot of what you see in campaign are encounters that are designed and tuned.
Yeah, that's why the AI is always completely lost when they have to do any navigation outside of the battle encounters. I mean it's fun to watch regardless.
yeah, I used to enjoy the early days of Halo modding by spawning like 200 marines. It was impressive how much the game could handle before the crashed. This was pre Pikmin too!
Pretty sure AI techniques/technologies have improved from the days of Halo CE
I don't get her impression it's changed much, even playing destiny 2, which in itself is a technology offshoot from reach, likely designed with many of the tools and techniques used in the halo games, I don't feel like I'm fighting wildly different characters of enemies.
I guess for reach , the presence of firefight may mean that there is a separate set of behaviours designed for those maps.
It wouldn't surprise me if the maps themselves are designed with tags and cues for the AI, which may not be there by default. But I suppose this gives the options for modders to try and do it
Wouldn't be surprised if your right and the extra horsepower in base systems going to graphical fidelity
you can run anything through Proton, Valve just keeps track of which games have been fully tested with it. It'll probably work fine.
It's just that AI pathing is missing on MP maps. You can already spawn AI, but they will either stand still or they will shoot you, while standing still. They don't know where to walk, since that data is missing from MP maps. It's something that is being worked on, though. Pretty confident that we'll see results, especially with the full game in the hands of these modders.
Thank you! In what folder, though? Does it work for Game Pass game?
Its for W10 games. So should be for gamepass also.
Its appdata/local then the game
Dude, did you just admit to committing a crime?Bypass anticheat?
I want a like/upvote option for this kind of posts. Instead: Much appreciated!
TBH, this probably isn't feasible.
Like, leaving the files open to be modded is different from adding bespoke modding tools and support, and making that for each game, or god forbid, for the entire collection à la Serious Sam Fusion, would be a massive undertaking.
Technically yes you can run anything with Proton, but any game with anti cheats is borked on Proton.
You don't even need this anymore. XB1 controllers work over bluetooth out of the box for some time now.I still don't understand why they removed splitscreen from the PC version.
If only there was some kind of official accesory created by Microsoft that allowed multiple Xbox One controllers to be connected wirelesly to a PC...
It's still pretty useful, if you want to go between using controllers wired and wirelessly. XB1 controllers forget their bluetooth pairing when you connect them with a USB cable, but they won't forget pairing with an Xbox console or dongle.
