This mod adds 6 new weapons from the Halo universe : Plasma pistol, Plasma rifle, Spiker, Needler, Energy sword, Ancient curveblade.
I gave them custom description to make them fit better into the game.
Every weapon beside the ancient blade (it is a basic sword) has custom sounds and special effects, to match as best as possible the original Halo games. The energy blade has custom in/out animations with ambient lighting.
To make the weapons stand out even more, i gave them some custom properties :
The weapon models/textures have been imported from sketchfab and are not my work (links in the credits section), however i brought some modifications to the models :
Energy sword = giveitem halo_es
Ancient sword = giveitem halo_ancient
Plasma pistol = giveitem halo_pp
Plasma rifle = giveitem halo_pr
Spiker = giveitem halo_spk
Needler = giveitem halo_ndl
The "OPTIONAL : Choose your lightsaber mod" is ONLY for people who installed the choose your lightsaber mod. If you installed the mod, and want to get the energy sword on Dantooine, grab the files from the folder and drop them to your override folder in your game directory.
Start with the main install, then choose what suits you best in the following installers.
I tried to bring the weapons in a "lore friendly" way :
Optionally, you can get 2 copies of every weapon in the ebon hawk compartment if you want to get the weapon faster and for free.
I do not own any of the models.

To make the weapons stand out even more, i gave them some custom properties :
- The plasma pistol and rifle are ideal to strip energy shields, just like in the Halo games, and deal additional damages vs droids.
- The spiker deal physical damages and additional damages vs humans.
- The needler has bonus damages and attack vs humans, it is fully upgradeable with lightsaber crystals despite being a blaster pistol.
- The energy sword is fully upgradeable with lightsaber crystals despite being a melee sword.
Work done on the weapon models/textures
The weapon models/textures have been imported from sketchfab and are not my work (links in the credits section), however i brought some modifications to the models :
- The plasma pistol, rifle and needler will have a small animated electric texture, in the gun's "mouth".
- I had to manually bring shadows for some models, they are far from perfect but they get the job done.
- Metallic reflection added to most guns
- Some bright properties have been added to the Energy sword, the Needler needles and the plasma pistol ammunition screen.
Cheat codes list :
Energy sword = giveitem halo_es
Ancient sword = giveitem halo_ancient
Plasma pistol = giveitem halo_pp
Plasma rifle = giveitem halo_pr
Spiker = giveitem halo_spk
Needler = giveitem halo_ndl
