ABOUT

=====

 

In this mod I expand on Cairo Station by adding one variant of Brutes & two variants of Jackals. There is a new Banshee encounter, & a section where you will find two empty Banshees. The Longsword has been added & is flyable.

 

Other tweaks include a higher Field of View (FoV), darkened MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor. Player character starts with a BR & Shotgun. Extra friendly NPCs have been added (Marines & ODST), along with extra enemies.

 

 

Assembly was used for this mod as it provides more consistent results, is easier to use, faster, & has not broken any of my maps unless it was something that should break said maps.

 

 

Additional applications where used with source tag files, xbox .map files, & PC .map files to verify the settings.

 

 

-Entity (H2x) was used to study the original map in its unmodified XBox incarnation.

-The unlocked Guerilla New (H2v) was also used to study original & rebuilt tag source in its PC incarnation.

ALTERATIONS

===========

 

-Some Marines are now ODST

-Some Marines have human heads

-Most Marines have various helmets & clothing

 

-NPC weapons have been reallocated but not edited; so the weapons are as you know & expect them to be

 

-Player starts with a BR & Shotgun, full ammo

 

-Longsword is now a flyable vehicle & fires Pelican Rocket Pod projectiles

-Various Banshee have been added

 

-Additional enemy AI such as two Jackal variants & one Brute variant, this can be affected by difficulty settings &

the Thunderstorm Skull. I suggest playing on Normal the first play round, then increasing difficulty on the next

 

 

INSTALL

=======

 

1) Before copying the file to your Halo 2\maps default maps directory you must backup the original.

 

2) The filename is 01b_spacestation.map, so make sure you backup the original by either renaming it or by

moving it to a backup sub-folder. I rename the original file to 01b_spacestation.map.ORIGINAL so I know what

it is at a later date.

 

3) Copy the new file to the same location then start Halo 2 Vista.

 

4) Select Cairo Station from the Campaign selection screen.
