Metropolis - Fall of the Scarab - Halo 2 Campaign Mission Tweaks

v1. 1 - Small Update that adds AI to the turrets on the Wraiths when the player uses them.

Welcome to Metropolis - Fall of the Scarab. This mod aims to tweak the mission Metropolis to make it more in line with my other mods, as well as to form a template for other submods. The standard edition of Metropolis - Fall of the Scarab makes a few distinct changes from the original level - there are more starting Marines, more Marines spawn throughout the level, some Ghosts are now driven by Grunts and there are some more diverse Elite ranks, including the inclusion of the Major Domo and Minor Domo Elite ranks in Classic graphics.

However, where the real fun begins with this mod is the Swords of Sanghelios Edition - this submod adds Major Elites and Major Grunts as allies in key points in the level, to create a non-canon yet thoroughly enjoyable experience. The Major rank is removed from the Coveanant, but they now feature more high-ranking Grunts as well as more appearances from the new Elite Scarab Guardians rank, which in the Standard Edition are only found on the Scarab itself.

List of Changes

- Altered Elite armor colourations in Classic graphics to add in Minor Domo and Major Domo ranks

- Changed some Ghost drivers to be Grunts and added in the Plasma Rifle Grunt Ultra rank

- Added more Marines, particularly to the opening segment

- Changed certain enemy Elites to have more diverse ranks scattered throughout the level

- Added more Elites to the Scarab battle, with more diverse ranks in Classic Graphics

Installation Instructions

- Installing this mod is simple. Navigate to the root folder for Halo: The Master Chief Collection - usually in Program Files > Steam > steamapps > common, and go to the folder called 'halo 2'

- Next, BACK UP THESE FILES if you haven't already, just in case

- Then simply move the newmombasa.map file that is this mod to replace the one in the maps file, and play Halo: MCC with Anti-Cheat disabled
