Project Reclaimer 0.9.18 on Apple Silicon, natively through a Win64 PE loader under Rosetta 2 (no Wine, CrossOver or VM). Releases are now named for the Reclaimer client version they support.

New since v0.1.0

  • Reclaimer client 0.9.18 (the version servers run); the loader finds its client patches by byte signature.
  • Online play: Server Browser, joining public servers (Big Team Battle tested with 60 players), lobby, map vote, scoreboard, join-in-progress.
  • Audio: game audio, plus the client's own menu music and voice playback (new WASAPI device on CoreAudio).
  • Fixes: water renders; the intermittent freeze right after the loading screen is gone (thread ids); the frame-rate title no longer over-reports.
  • Debug overlays (launch variable or key): real hitboxes from each object's collision model (F2), projectile and bullet tracers (F3), player shield/health/weapon info (F4), item labels (F5), friend/enemy filter (F6). See the README table.
  • USB install: shim/tools/make-usb.sh copies everything (including your MCC files) to a stick; install.sh on the stick sets up a second Mac without downloading MCC again.
  • Window sizes itself to your screen; Halo 3 engine settings via PELOAD_H3.

Bundle contents

  • shim/build/peload -- the loader (x86_64, runs under Rosetta 2)
  • shim/crt/ -- Microsoft VC++ runtime DLLs (app-redistributable)
  • shim/play.sh, shim/target.sh, shim/tools/ -- launcher, test opponent, test runner, USB scripts
  • reclaimer-mac.sh download -- fetches your MCC files with DepotDownloader (your Steam login)
  • README.md

No game files are included. You need your own Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Steam and project-reclaimer-client-v0.9.18.exe from https://github.com/ProjectReclaimer/project-reclaimer-releases/releases, placed in client/.
