hey, sorry to bug, but whenever i try to launch the game, it loads up the xbox screens and loading screens and etc., but when i actually make it to the main menu, it crashes and says the game had a segmentation fault. it ran well on my older worse laptop, but not on my new one?
my specs are :
Processor 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13620H 2.40 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

i hope i formatted this right, sorry for the long comment

Vanilla Halo 1's engine is notoriously pretty picky when it comes to hardware, so I'm not actually sure how I can help. I've tried my best to optimize it to as many types of hardware as I could. I apologize if this answer isn't satisfying, but I'm not sure what to do here. At least MCC should run well, though. Maybe someday there might be an update to Chimera and other software that this repack runs off of that could fix issues like this, but for now there's not much of a solution. I'll continue investigating such issues.

No. And it's not planned for the foreseeable future. Maybe at some point further down the line, but not anytime soon.

I've never heard of Halo 2: Cortana before. Is that a mod? I've never seen it on the Nexus or on ModDB before.

Yup, it's a mod that's part of this collection, based on the Japanese version of Halo 2. It's one of the new things this collection has, among other things, so it's why you haven't heard of it.

Stubbs the Zombie is missing. Since as you know that game uses the same engine of Halo CE.

Not the exact same engine (a modified one) plus it's not made by Bungie. Otherwise I would've included Abuse since it was *published* by Bungie. Nevertheless, the point is I'm focusing strictly on pre-Halo 3 Bungie games without emulators, so Stubbs isn't going to be in this.

Hey! Fantastic work on this! Only issue i'm experiencing is that whenever I load "The Commander" it starts to play "Halo" and similar mixups with other SPV3 levels. Any clue how to fix this?

Unfortunately, that's by design. In fact when you load levels through the SPV3 tab, it's not *really* loading SPV3 levels; it's loading SOI's Singleplayer Adventure V3 levels instead. SPV3 doesn't work at all unless you install OpenSauce, and Spartan Edition doesn't support OpenSauce unless you remove Chimera, and if you remove Chimera, it removes the interpolation effect (60FPS animations instead of 30FPS) among many other important fixes, but most importantly, it would remove the portability factor. Even if OpenSauce worked with Chimera, only old versions of SPV3 would be supported, which wouldn't have any extra maps like The Commander. So instead, I decided to fill the level slots with other maps instead. The readme file details what those changes are. I couldn't be able to modify Universal UI at the time to change the menu to reflect the map changes. I'm sorry if I caused any confusion.
