HaloMD

[joelfong]

I'm posting a candidate release to the next version of MD. It includes fixes to some memory leak & crashes, adds a Preferences option to use an alternate downloading mirror (galaxy verge; useful for those that can't connect to MGM's due to school filters), map list improvements. Once the build becomes official, this may be the last update I push (though keep note that 002 will still be around to push updates).

If you're more technically inclined and would like to save bandwidth, you can download the patch from 1.0.1, clone the MD repo from GitHub, cd into Delta_Distribution, and execute ./run to generate the new build onto your Desktop.

Is there a way to make it such that we can automatically download maps not in the Halo MD database but exist on Galaxy Verge? Since it does have a lot of custom maps that some CE servers do host. Currently I have to manually download and add those maps in. But if this auto download feature can be added, then I think it would make Halo MD pretty much perfect.

HaloMD will not open on High Sierra. Looking for a patch or a fix.

your version is out of date. download the latest version.

[hbx]

I've already tried the latest version and it's still not working.

Recently obtained a new 2017 MacBook Pro; Halo MD cannot be played online. Do you have any idea what's causing this issue?

P.S. I created a thread regarding this issue.

[marsh]

Will it ever turn into the full game?

[Guest]

nil, post this topic on the HDM main page news and update the bold text on the main page regarding Halo UB Demo. Thanks!

I've been playing this halo for a while now, but I enter a game and then I couldn't move, I could shoot, but not move. this was the case in both multiplayer and campaign, I've reset my controls and even deleted and redownloaded the game again but nothing worked. what do I do? someone please help

Is HaloMD going to work on macOS Catalina, since apparently all apps will be required to use Gatekeeper?

HaloMD is not going to work on macOS Catalina. The biggest reason is actually 32-bit support being removed from the system, and Halo Mac not being compiled to run as 64-bit. Note the Mac version of Halo has not been updated officially in a decade, so it's well in unsupported territory failing to fit in the near future.

I love HaloMD and I enjoyed playing it so much, thank you guys!

Unfortunately it won't run on these days Macs because of their 64-bit operating systems. So I was looking for a solution for a quite similar experience. And I found something! I know, it's not HaloMD, but Halo CE (Custom Edition) runs on Intel Macs as well as on Apple Silicon Macs with CrossOver. It's not so super fantastic like MD has been, but it works and it's quite easy to get it running. I'm just happy to be back in the ringworld on my Mac.
