Halo 2 Vista :: Online Co-op on The Great Journey with 3 players

This video was made on Halo 2 Vista, the PC version of Halo 2.
It will only work on Windows Vista, Windows 7 and future Windows Operating Systems.
The crack for Windows XP is useless, given that it can only provide offline play.

Q and A.

How many players?
3 players - me, codehpro and TF Bagel

Why does the Scarab teleport step by step?
It is defined as a Machine in the game, and it is scripted to move, the movement animations do not sync.

Why didn't you continue to tartarus battle?
The Dedicated Server had crashed.

3rd person view?
I used Blu Trainer to do that.

make sure to block it's access to internet.

Addresses used, for H2V client and Dedicated server - http://pastebin.com/AHazZdC6

For Dedicated Server users

You need to copy Campaign maps and single_player_shared.map into the map directory, which is normally

[Drive]:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo 2 Dedicated Server\Maps

For 64bit users this will be in
[Drive]:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo 2 Dedicated Server\Maps

Your Dedicated Server also needs the mainmenu.map modified too

If this is on PC why does it say "Hold X to pilot Banshee" is this on xbox or PC

[KillerShock120]

@e4doon20 There are many differences between the Xbox version and the PC.

The PC version:

Provides "native" resolution support and has double texture quality.

Supports the Xbox 360 controller and Mouse+Keyboard set ups.

Uses Games for Windows Live interface to display Online friends.

Is still online despite shut down of Halo 2 Xbox.

Has Dedicated servers, and no matchmaking.

Has a Map creation kit.

Those that record on Xbox 360 at 1080 will have stretched HUD and up-scaled video output.

@XD4rkCha0s Should really be using a Dedicated server to avoid most crashes.

[XD4rkCha0s]

[KillerShock120]

@XD4rkCha0s Only host needs the mainmenu mod, others can download it but that is optional.
