Halo 2 Xp V1.0.2.129
Click to expand.The only problem that has yet to be solved, is activation of the game. Halo 2 will install the full game and allow you to play through the first level before asking you to activate, but due to the way the hacked launcher works, this doesn't bring you to the activation screen, leaving you stuck in 'demo mode'. Can nobody here read the included directions? OK guys, sorry to bump an old thread but.I'm having a blast playing Halo 2 on my computer. I bought a 360 controller a long time ago for Lego Star Wars and other games, and now I'm loving the fact that I can play Halo 2 in high-res with a 360 controller and have a lot of fun with it. I'm working my way through the SP campaign but I'm hoping to get some MP going within the next couple of weeks.The game looks amazing at 1680x1050 2xAA, and I keep Vsync on. I'll get the occasional drop to 45/30 FPS during the really chaotic outdoor scenes but nothing to complain about.
The colors really pop on this NEC monitor, and 4xAA is playable as well if I don't mind more 45FPS than 60. I haven't tried it on Vista yet and I don't really plan to until I try to play MPIf you haven't played it on 360 and you have the hardware to run it smoothly, go for it.
It's a lot of fun and it's much more polished and looks much better than the PC version of Halo: Combat Evolved. Sigh, I can't get this shit working! I tried manually installing Halo 2 on XP a couple of weeks ago with the loader.exe, did everything right but when I start the damn game, it gives me this message - 'LIVE Gaming on Widows failed to initialize. This may be because another LIVE Gaming on Windows application (such as the Halo 2 dedicated server) is running on the same machine. Other wise, reinstalling the game may fix this problem'.
Well, I'm pretty damn sure I don't have anything else LIVE installed on my system since its XP.Anyways, I uninstall and install the game again with the installer in the link above. Everything goes about the same and when I start the game.I get the same damn message again!Does anyone know what's going on? I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling LIVE from the DVD, but doesn't help at all. If anyone knows how to get around this problem, I'd really appreciate it if you help me.
