Hidden/Spoiler:
Dear fellow halo fans,
Due to conditions unbeknownst to me, my laptop and most of my files has been completely lost in a crash, as the computer appeared to have obtained a virus downloaded from an outside source. (I do not think I downloaded it, my computer is my family's PC so everyone uses it.) Luckily, I do have most of the mod as it was released in a demo last year backed up onto a portable hard drive. After this event, I have decided to end this mod and will shut down the page in a few months. As soon as I am able to get a summer job and earn an income, I will be able to complete the building of a new hard drive, and thus continue from the back-up of the mod. I will most likely be renaming and adjusting the concept of the halo mod and it will appear as soon as possible on moddb under a new name. The new name will be posted here on this page, before this mod page will be taken down. The old mod will be given a new name, and probably be released one map at a time. As I said, all this will be done when financial issues are solved, and a new hard drive built. I promise that this mod will be finished, as many of you are great supporters of its progress. I have received several requests of possible donations, and after talking with my family, they want me to accept. I have created a GoFundMe and the link will be posted below. I have found one update of the game on my backup hard drive, and it is newer than the demo released. I will try and upload it as soon as my computer is recovered from the crash, and than I will cease to update this mod, and a new one will be released under a new name sometime in the near future. Again, I thank you all for you generous support and comments, and I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused with this occurence.
Short story: PC crashed, lost all files, old demo found on backup hard drive, release of last update available will be released, money needed to complete building of new PC, old mod will continue under a new name on new PC, life will continue.
And that is why I have SyncToy set to back up MEU and my other projects every night to like, two other hard drives, my Google Drive account, and my 1TB Dropbox Pro account .
I nearly forgot about this Halo Mod you were making, glad to see you are back on top of this project, can not wait to see what else is new when you update this!

Huge thanks to TwinkeyRunaway and 411Remnant for uploading the video.
This looks sweet! I'm not all that much a fan of Halo but I do love Red Vs Blue and the lore of Halo so I'm looking forward to adding this along with Mass Effect Unification.
Hey guys, I'm releasing the breakout map in a few hours! Look for it in the released section. I know this is really out of the blue from being "dead", but I've decided to release the maps as they are completed rather than a massive mod drop. Cheers!
