Halo 3 PC (maybe) real - Possible announcement this month or uh sometime!

Damn it, I can easily ignore Half-Life 3 ARG hype, but Halo 3 on PC... I can't resist the bait for all these clues. Gonna keep an eye on RTX. Would make sense for an announcement there.
wow, after playing H2V then jumping over to H3, I can see the framerate difference. Seems like quite a big difference to me
I would play H2V but I find it really hard playing at such a low FOV.
If H3 comes to PC really hope that have a FOV slider.
it'd be stupid if it didn't
also I'm fine with the FOV but 90 FOV would be nice

90? 110 masterrace.
what
that's insane
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;41220887]90? 110 masterrace.[/QUOTE]
180 FOV you scrub.
97
make a helmet with visor going all around. 360 FOV
certain affinity do it
[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;41220118]The funniest thing to me was how they were marketing it as for direct x 10.
It used direct x 7 lol.[/QUOTE]
On the PC it used DX9EX, on the Xbox I believe it used DX8.1...

My team put together a [URL=http://www.h2pc.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=167]Game+ Pack for H2PC[/URL], it includes a fixed FoV mod among many other tweaks and improvements.
yeah for the life of me I can't get that working

wait, do I need to use H2PCLauncher for it to work?
@343N,
Its all explained in the included readme and on the page I linked. You are telling me you cannot figure out how to use a self-extracting archive?
It has all of the mods from the H2PCLauncher along with many more. All tested of course, the one text file that needs to be tweaked is DSfix.ini (for unlocked FPS, custom resolution & borderless windowed mode), but that is also explained in detail. So what part are you stuck on?
I've got all the files copied into the H2V install directory, and I changed DSfix.ini to my preferences, yet it seems to make absolutely no change.
Okay, so you replaced the [B]mainmenu.map[/B] with my custom one and you don't see this when you start up H2PC:

If not, then you are not extracting the files to the correct location. They should go into your H2PC installation directory, overwriting the previous files.
*How does one do embed YouTube videos on here?
I see that on startup, and the covenant ship is replaced with a longsword, like the thread says
also [noparse][media]youtubeURLhere[/media][/noparse] to embed videos. and make sure it's not https but http
So when you said, "yeah for the life of me I can't get that working", you meant you could not get the FoV fix working? Did you install the prerequisite files in Step 1? People that skipped that step had some issues.
Yes, I did. And I didn't see an FOV option in DSFix, however I changed the resolution to 1920 1080, (which its normally at anyway), turned on borderless windowed mode and added some AA/AF options, and they don't seem to work. F8 is tied to borderless windowed, yet it does nothing.

if you get on steam, we can talk about this easier

also did I mention a popup comes up saying "Would you like to load" and gives yes/no options
I'm a little late to the armour party, but I did all the VidMasters and unlocked Recon before it was given to everyone.
H3 has a lot of memories for me and my friends.
The video on OP proves nothing, I have a keyboard and mouse adapter for my xbox, he could of just used one of those, and plugged his Xbox into his monitor.

I remember being 13 and following news of stuff like that with a certain amount of awe. Those sure were some days...
with one simple biped tag adjustment I did this

I don't know the exact fov but it's pretty big

Them Vidmaster stuff was so hard to do, thankfully we found the rocket launchers on ODST, the ones with the unlimited ammo. Anyone else use them?
psh come back when you vidmaster marathon
God, I remember doing those vidmasters. Annual and Endure were fucking hard as shit
I always used the elite player model so i didnt even care about recon, i still did the vidmasters with my friends though, purely becuase it was a fun challenge.
[QUOTE=CarmineGear;41224042]God, I remember doing those vidmasters. Annual and Endure were fucking hard as shit[/QUOTE]
Endure was terrible, especially when you get to Set 3 Round 5 Wave 4 and someone disconnects/goes AFK and ruins the attempt.
man if there's vidmaster for PC we should do it again
doubt there will be though
[editline]29th June 2013[/editline]
unless they include ODST with halo 3 :o
I doubt it, but cmon they might?
I am set with just halo 3. But ODST too? Holy shit, it's almost too good to happen. Either way, I'll clock in too many hours with just halo 3 PC
well ODST and Halo 3 are pretty much the exact same engine revision, don't see why they can't implement it into one executable. and if they can't, just have both games on the list? why not?
