Test patch 1.09 for compat fixes

Hi all, Last night I decided to sit down and fix the problem where 64-bit machines with >4GB of RAM complained that you have 0 RAM. That was easy. Then when I tried to test the fix, I discovered the compat problem with the recent IE security fixes, and saw the threads here suggesting that people uninstall them. That's no good, right? So I put together a fix for that, too. I'd like you guys to try it out on your various systems and make sure that (a) it fixes those problems, if you had them , and (b) doesn't cause any new ones. NOTE!!!!!! This will *not* have any impact on gameplay. All the changes are finished happening before the MGS logo movie even plays! Every time there's a patch, there are always a few people whose internet connections happen to get flaky that day, and they assume there's a correlation. This patch won't change the game. It's your imagination. Really. This patch is only for HaloPC, not for CE yet. If a little time passes and no one can convince me that the patch is buggy, I'll port the changes over to CE and release both. This version will network with 1.08 in the same game, it doesn't break compat. Try it out, reinstall your missing IE patches, and post your results here. If anyone is still running Win98SE (gasp!) let me know if it works as well as previous versions. Thanks! [url=http://www.bungie.net/images/games/halopc/patch/halopc109.zip]1.09 Beta patch[/url]

  • I appreciate how work "some" work is being done to improve the game, but am really disappointed as to how bungie has simply left the PC lovers in the dark and not done enough to further enhance the PC experience. Suggestions to improve this game (which might never happen): -improve netcode *BIG ONE* (so people no longer need to aim 3 feet next to the person for their shots to register, seeing that the 500-1000 people who play this game competitively greatly dislike this "feature") -More maps? (I think after six years of the same old BloodGulch CTF, people deserve a bit more and shouldn't really have to install CE to get it. Some official map packs would help also) -That's all I can think of at the moment x__x WILL COME UP WITH MORE THINGS TO WHINE ABOUT! :) better late than never. Hopefully bungie can learn a bit from their experience with halo2pc/halopc(badnetcode) but still props for coming up with a game which has lasted for so long. [Edited on 11.01.2009 4:33 PM PST]
