Using Halo Refined with HaloCEVR

[slipperfish]

I found out about Halo Refined recently, which replaces Halo PC map files to fix textures or effects broken in the gearbox port so that the game looks like the xbox version. I was one of those kids in 2003 googling why my assault rifle wasn't shiny. The title screen halo ring texture is updated, captain keyes is updated, the transparency effects are correct and shields change color, healthpacks glow, you can actually see the bumpmapping without a flashlight.

I highly, highly recommend it, and its begs to be mentioned like chimera and dsoal. I'm not sure if it's against any rules to link to the downloads or else I would post it. I'll leave that to someone who knows, or knows how to broach the subject for the readme.

I'm using V4beta2. I was wondering if anyone else was using it and if they know about any conflicts with VR. I made it about halfway into the second level without noticing any issues. It has an xbox-like updated high res HUD that seems to work just as well as the stock one.

I read some remaining effects need CEnshine to be fixed, which is described as being Custom Edition only. So far the only thing that's clearly still broken for me is the control room big hallway glass.

Putting a note here until I can test more. Wondering if Refined maps are introducing these issues or it's something else:

1. Pillar of Autumn - First grunts in the game do not spawn and player doesn't pick up the first pistol. I was playtesting at a rushed pace. Can be fixed by walking through the sequence again. I also acquired the pistol after acquiring two weapons, allowing me to carry 3 weapons. I haven't tried to reproduce this part.

2. Assault on the Control Room - At the opening of the level, sometimes the pelican will not boot the player and they will be stuck in the pelican as it flies away. Can be fixed by moving and jumping until you are released, repeat many times and restart the level if necessary.
