- HALO REACH: COVENANT CAMPAIGN -
This is mod is a total conversion of the Halo Reach campaign to play as the invading Covenant forces against the Human defenders.

In a parallel universe where the members of NOBLE Team were born on the opposite side of the war - making up one of the Covenant's
deadly Zealot teams serving the Ministry of Fervent Intercession, in search of rare Forerunner artifacts. Meanwhile the UNSC trains
hundreds of 'NOBLE Class' Spartan IIIs to face them. Take on the role of Zealot Team's newest Sangheili, a recently transferred Special
Operations Elite known only as Six. Fight alongside the numerous forces of the Covenant armada agaisnt the heretical Humans and seek
out the holy artifacts that may change the course of the war forever.


- INSTALLATION GUIDE -

There are two ways to download the mod, you can either download the mission files (however this may take a while as it's a 7GB file),
or you can download the patch files and use Assembly to patch your game's mission files (smaller download but more complicated and tedious to install).


- Installing mod with mission files download [RECOMMENDED].
1) After downloading, navigate to your Halo Reach mission directory (usually something
like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Halo The Master Chief Collection\haloreach\maps).

2) Create a new folder (call it something like 'Backups') and drag all *your* regular map files into it
(anything in the maps folder called 'm(numbers).map' eg. 'map20.map'), everything from m05 to m70_bonus.

3) Drag the mods map files from the RAR file into your maps folder.

4) Make sure you start the game in Anti-Cheat Disabled mode. Congrats, you've successfully installed the mod!


- Installing mod with patch files download.
1) After downloading the mod files, you need to download and install the modding program called Assembly.
You can find it here: https://github.com/XboxChaos/Assembly/releases (click on the text 'Assembly.Downloader.zip').

2) After installing Assembly, navigate to your Halo Reach mission directory (usually something
like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Halo The Master Chief Collection\haloreach\maps).
Create a new folder (call it something like 'Backups') and drag all *your* regular map files into
it (anything in the maps folder called 'm(numbers).map' eg. 'map20.map'), everything from m05 to m70_bonus.

3) Drag the patch files from the RAR file into your maps folder. You should now open Assembly, click
on the "TOOLS" option in the top left corner, and then "Map Patcher" in the drop-down menu.

4) Click the "Apply Patch" option and press the three dots '...' button on the far right on the top
line. Navigate to your maps folder and select the first mission patch 'm05' and click Open. Go to the
second line's '...' button and then go to your backups folder where the original map files are located,
and select the map with the same matching name. Finally, go to the third line's '...' button, make sure
you're in the maps folder, and click save (the correct name should be automatically filled in).

5) Click the "Apply Patch" button at the bottom of the page, it will now create your own moded mission
file. You must now do this process again for each of the maps from m05 to m70_bonus in order for all the
campaign's maps to be patched.

6) Make sure you start the game in Anti-Cheat Disabled mode. Congrats, you've successfully installed the mod!
