🎮 H2: Project Gravemind — First Look! I'd like to introduce H2: Project Gravemind, a project inspired by H3: Project Reclaimer, created by the community, for the community, with the goal of keeping the Halo 2 experience alive. This is just a first look. In the coming days, I'll be releasing the project for everyone to try out and share their first impressions. All reviews, suggestions, and bug reports are more than welcome! ❤️ I'm currently working on implementing split-screen multiplayer and fixing a few bugs to improve the overall experience. 📌 Important requirement: To use this project, each user must own their own legitimate copy of Halo: The Master Chief Collection (MCC). The project does not include any original game files. Thank you to everyone who supports community-driven projects like this! This is just the beginning. 👀💚 #Halo2 #ProjectGravemind #HaloMCC #HaloCommunity #ProjectReclaimer #Halo

Haruspis just got a massive update. Server Browser is here, powered by Serina. You can now see and join active Halo Wars: Definitive Edition lobbies directly from Haruspis, including both base-game and modded sessions. Serina is also public now, unlocking audio modding support
Halo Wars: Definitive Edition audio modding is now possible. Coming soon to Haruspis.

The Server Browser is connected to our Discord too. That means whenever someone opens a Halo Wars lobby, the community can be notified AND join through our matchmaking channel.

Halo Wars 2 may have fewer mods, but Haruspis supports them. From Nuphillion and Fight Club to whatever the community builds next, the Haruspis Launcher handles both HW1 and HW2 mods, including custom maps, models, audio, video and more. Download available on our profile.

Alongside some major things i am working on, i've begun to write a script for a video tutorial series on halo 3's editing kit, to bring a more updated tutorial for the community, it won't dive into intense technical details but i will try to always explain things in a good format

Haruspis is expanding. Linux and Steam Deck support are now in development, bringing Haruspis closer to a seamless experience across more platforms. This is still heavily work in progress, but it is an important step forward for the project.

We need a modder brave enough to redo Halo Wars 1 visuals in Halo Wars 2
We need a modder brave enough to redo Halo 4's level visuals Putting the H2A BR into H4 doesn't do much when the rest of the game still looks ugly

Right now, most of the game’s audio is packed into one huge .pck file of 2.14 GB. That means even a small sound replacement could require shipping a modified version of the entire package. Haruspis is changing that.
Halo Wars: Definitive Edition audio modding is now possible. Coming soon to Haruspis.

Mods will be able to load loose audio files directly at runtime, without replacing the full audio package. No 2.14 GB overhead. No massive files for tiny changes. Much easier to create, share, and install. Full usage documentation will release alongside the update.
