About this mod
This mod turns every enemy into a Sniper Jackal with a Beam Rifle. Allies are unchanged, and enemy factions have made up their differences and don't attack each other so they only kill you :D (No enemy infighting). I also included an even tougher version of the mod that removes every retreat behavior from the Jackal's AI. Found in Optional Files.

This mod turns every enemy into a Sniper Jackal with a Beam Rifle. Allies are unchanged, and enemy factions have made up their differences and don't attack each other so they only kill you :D (No enemy infighting). (Also, any bugs or issues seen in the video I made should be fixed for this release, no allies should be hostile to you.)
I also included an even tougher version of the mod that removes every retreat behavior from the Jackal's AI. This means they will never drop their beam rifle and basically never stop harassing you. Not playtested thoroughly because playtesting the normal version was enough for me :) The Regret fight is probably impossible and the Gravemind starting room is a mess. Have fun. Found in Optional Files.
There are two known points where behavior is different than vanilla because replacing some enemies messed up some scripts and I had to edit them to make the level beatable. The two points are:
- The end of Sacred Icon has some waves spawn a bit faster so there may be a lot of snipers at once. Some of them hide in the hills forever unable to be seen and never peek out so I also had to tie the end of the level to something else other than killing EVERY Jackal. So I tied it to the latest wave that doesn't stay hidden. This means the level may end before you have killed every Jackal on the ground. If you happen to kill the right ones.
- The first room of Gravemind can be opened earlier than normal. Every wave does still spawn so you can still fight it out if you want to, but originally after killing everything Cortana would never open the door for you. I moved up her opening the door to early in the encounter as a mercy. So the option is open if you want to tough it out or not. It's pretty wild if you do.
MANUAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Move all of your vanilla maps to a safe backup location. Maps are found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Halo The Master Chief Collection\halo2\h2_maps_win64_dx11. Back up your vanilla map files, the map files that have changed are every file from 01b_spacestation.map to 08b_deltacontrol.map.
2. Unzip the modded map files, and place them into where the vanilla maps used to be.
3. Whenever you want to play the modded maps, just make sure you open the game with anti-cheat disabled. Have fun!
