I’m actually taken a back by the custom cutscenes I was just expecting normal vanilla cutscenes with just some different voice overs, love the ship design especially the bridge area it’s really beautiful. This makes me excited for the halo future in custom stories or just halo modding in general, like lumoria in halo custom edition for example.
@@genericwhitekidthesecond4330 im sure it is some animation software being used, but I've never seen an custom cutscene in a MCC Mod besides the earlier halo Custom edition mods converted to MCC, it makes me pretty excited to see what can made with halo 3 and the other previously Xbox only halo games.
@@greenlight1822 Eh custom cutscenes have always been a thing in MCC just none like this. Most are usually in line with a zoom in on the character or something as they enter the area. The issue is cutscenes are just really hard to put together and if it's not important why bother. Makes me wonder if people will start making machinimas from theater mode into custom cutscenes lmao.
People talking about the voice acting but I'd say its really good for a fan project its professionally recorded with good mics and it tries to stay within how the sangheili speak and i'd say it does that well.
@@ctrlaltdefeatx2898I don’t if it’s irony but in the mission Cortana it felt like you were in Covenant cruiser but flood like whilst this mission is in a carrier with high charity geometry
It's even more impressive when you factor in that the entire thing was basically programmed in a single year-long caffeine fueled bender, and is held together with duct tape, rope, and the power of prayer...
I'd be happy to try a few lines, see whats what. I do a mean arbiter impression and have a flexible voice box so elites in general are easy for me. I also have played around in Audacity a bit, so I can tinker with sfx as well.
Great job! This is exactly what was missing from halo 3, a covenant ship level, all the other halos had at least one, but in halo 3 we only got the cortana one which doesnt rise to the standards of truth and reconciliation or gravemind. Also sad to see that Arbiter developed an arthritis condition in his time in the forward unto dawn.
This looks fantastic! Honestly the official Halo games REALLY need more Swords of Sanghelios missions, and playable Elites in multiplayer. Maybe we'll get a Swords DLC for Halo Infinite at some point but I'm not really holding my breath. Anyhow will this be just one map or a campaign? Either way, it looks incredible.
Great Halo 2 asset reuse. That first chamber is the Arbiter coliseum from halo 2. Also some area is from the prison area of level "Gravemind," where MC rescues marines (Currently saw the first 6 minutes). The cutscenes look great.
Damn man. They actually got mp4 files to work for the mod so they could have cutsences. I gotta try that sometime. I wonder if the tutorials are better now. I hope we get modding tools for 4 soon so we can turn it into halo 3 but better.
@@xXBarthXx Ahh, That sucks. I hope 343 hasn't abonded MCC. We still need modding tools for ODST, Reach and 4. We also need more tools for importing things like mp4s to mods.
Wow, that's absolutely awesome! Voices aren't too bad either, honestly. I want more covenant and Arbiter focused stuff in Halo! The custom cutscenes are rad! Love the Halo 2 style ship map.
That's bits of the high Charity Map. While entirely custom layout would have been even better I understand it would have taken even more time to make, it certainly looks like a massive undertaking as it is.
This looks amazing! I love the reuse of Halo 2 models and Halo 3 textures to emulate a layout similar to the Halo CE hallways on the Truth and Reconciliation. I always wanted an Arbiter exclusive experience. My only critique is the atmosphere of the raid. It doesn't feel like the ship is being raided, ya know? Maybe add some alarms or elites over the PA ordering squads around, maybe some impacts from barrages from ship to ship combat. I think PoA from CE and Crow's Nest are some good examples of how to build the severity of the atmosphere for being under attack. All in all, amazing work! I love the modding community for this game
Holy shit this is fantastic. Everything. As for the voice, the Arbiter impression was perfect, the Rtas one needed more energy haha but I love seeing those mods !
I'd know it'd be a ton of work, but I would recommend compiling as many of Keith David's lines from various works and use them for the Arbiter. His renditions of 'Spawn' from the animated series and Goliath from 'Gargoyles' would fit perfectly here
get the rest of the Elite lines too and insert them into a deepfake program, modders should really embrace those tools instead of giving crappy VA (agree with everyone that the Arbiter is surprisingly close tho)
this is very fitting to how I imagine a follow up for Halo 3 from Arbiter's perspective; coming back to Sanghelios to find it under occupation by Brutes, and then having to take it back
Isupport studied English with this I restarted English after 10 years I am a beginner studying English with asmr. Please come and take a look and . Oh..oh
Seeing all these High Charity tiles revamped with Halo 3's textures is pretty amazing. Feels very fresh. I can't imagine how much time must have been spent on the AI pathing alone (though I hear the H3 mod tools make it fairly easy, just time consuming?), either way, great work!!
Wow, this is truly amazing. It’s awesome how you can import scenes from SFM. I always wondered if that was a possibility, just in case I ever wanted to make mods; now I know. At least I assume that the cutscenes are made in SFM, somebody correct me if I’m wrong.
@@xXBarthXx I actually did see it just before you responded. Oof, that’s a bummer. But I’m glad the creator released the cutscenes anyways and I assume he tells the player when to play them. That’s still better than nothing and just makes things feel more complete. Btw, thank you for showcasing mods whenever you find them, I constantly check your page to see what’s new!
Kinda nice to see halo 2 assets being re used for a halo 3 mod. although it is a little goofy to see the contrast in detail in the level compared to the enemies. good mod either way though.
the first Halo 3 mod that I really love, the voices are very similar to the original game, the level is well done (it even reminds me of Halo 2) and the cinematics, they may not be the best but they are very well done.
In the future, I hope to see a halo mod where you can play as ripa Moramee. Even though I wouldn’t be able to play it, atleast I could watch someone else play it.
Halo 3 was halo at its finest, it still has so much potential to be a game as a service and have unlimited updates and make it like tf2, overwatch or even a Destiny 2 style
I am gland new uploading you new video lately this is a really cool Halo mod I like the hell they didn't with a cutscene I hope you have an awesome day dude
Looks fkn awesome. If you're planning out a full campaign. Will you set up the story so that it might fit for when we see the arbiter in the book glasslands?
The Arbiter voice actor was not half bad. Its certainly not Keith David but the attempt to emulate his speech pattern was great
My thoughts exactly. The Arbiter actually sounds pretty close to the original IMO.
Yeah, but the guy who is doing R’tas doesn’t sound very good at all. Nonetheless, it’s quite impressive for a modded project
Send this to Marty, maybe he can share the voice filter for the elites
@@HIMISOCOOL That’s actually a really good idea.
He’s perfect for the campaign what are you talking about

The cutscenes are just Source Film Maker I'm pretty sure edited into the game.

for real, they did a way fucking better job than halo 4 and 5 did with the elites and the voice effect they have
At this point these people very well make their own games
Reusing the Halo 2 high charity assets was a great choice it really gives the ship the five and a half kilometer feel
Wish they would've done that with the Cortana mission since it takes place on High Charity.
@@ctrlaltdefeatx2898I don’t if it’s irony but in the mission Cortana it felt like you were in Covenant cruiser but flood like whilst this mission is in a carrier with high charity geometry
Dude Halo 3's Engine was perfection, even game released nowadays don't come even close to the level of detail it had for an old gen title.
Games still ahead of its time, H3 was truly a gem
It's even more impressive when you factor in that the entire thing was basically programmed in a single year-long caffeine fueled bender, and is held together with duct tape, rope, and the power of prayer...
I think you are thinking of Halo 2 lol.
I love all the bungie engines, the only exception now is the infinite engine.
@xXBarthXx Halo 3's engine is Halo 2's engine with minor improvements. There's even a lot of leftover code from Halo 2 within Halo 3's files.
Halo 3's lighting system was so good that it could make assets from previous games look oddly fitting:)
should’ve used H2A’s instead
Thanks for the playthrough! And I agree, if anyone has better voice acting than me please sing out haha, I need help
Either way, you still did an amazing job with this and I can't wait to see it completed!
"i will not lose my ship to the likes of broots"

Absolutely fucking ten out of ten for the mod creators.
This is why halo should have come to PC years ago.
Covenant splinter faction: *broads Arbiter's cruiser*
Arbiter: *walks up with a gravity hammer* "You picked the wrong ship fool!"
Hey I ain't complaining about the VA. For a fan to do this takes some dedication!
Exactly the way I see it. Can't get professional voice actors for a free mod lol
Oh yeah definitely.
Love how the brute use more the mauler on this mode like halo infinite with brute mangler
Well, custome cutscenes. I did not expect that. Attempts are being made and thats just nice
This would've been a perfect halo 3 dlc story.
Fr
dude that is seriously impressive
Bro
Literally been waiting for something like this for YEARS
A campaign where we see what happened to the Arbiter after Halo 3’s ending
Beyond impressive, I’d love to play this right after the Halo 3 credits roll
This mod looks fun tbh. Kudo's to the creator.
It's great! And this is just the demo, with more custom levels coming later :)
@@xXBarthXx how much,May I ask?
@@phantomknight4865 I’m not sure what all the creator has in mind
@@xXBarthXx oh ok!

Thanks! I've planned out more :)
Lmao yeah in season 10 of halo infinite
The problem is the lack of human weapons. Without them It feels like you're stuck with using the backup plan.
In another timeline we got a Halo 3 DLC for The Arbiter just like this lol
Great Halo 2 asset reuse. That first chamber is the Arbiter coliseum from halo 2. Also some area is from the prison area of level "Gravemind," where MC rescues marines (Currently saw the first 6 minutes). The cutscenes look great.
Are you KIDDING ME!? This looks AMAZING!
Do you mind if I make a video about this?
Might aswell this needs to go public faster
Hey bro! Go for it! Thanks :) mores coming too

It was actually just a separate mp4 file that I combined together with my gameplay recording. Sorry if I got your hopes up

cool, the ship level is basically High Charity
Voice acting is better than that one weird OFFICIAL trailer for MCC’s elite season. If you know you know.

We need Rtas Vadum and Thel Vadame back as playable characters in the Halo Infite DLC Campaign delayed until November 2025.
Holy shit this is fantastic. Everything. As for the voice, the Arbiter impression was perfect, the Rtas one needed more energy haha but I love seeing those mods !
Voice acting in this is actually pretty decent. thumbs up kid

They should just use ai to memic the voice actors so they don't have to rely on people who clearly haven't been to acting class lol.
All I got to say is wow really wasn't expecting custom cutscenes and voice
this is very fitting to how I imagine a follow up for Halo 3 from Arbiter's perspective; coming back to Sanghelios to find it under occupation by Brutes, and then having to take it back
I can't help it but see a WHOLE tonne of influences from CE. cant wait to see more of this yo! Everything is so well done!

@@xXBarthXx Guess that means you did real good lol.
Really solid map design. Some reused assets for sure but you really understand core Halo Gameplay at its simplest. Bread and Butter man
Yeah I couldn't help but notice it was halo 2 high Charity map in H3 for a large part, but it's fucking awesome !
That is the most badass mod campaign ever, of all time. 😎.
The camera work here is pretty good
They should’ve released a dlc like this id love to see a elite halo gam
The opening cutscene is amazing
Bro this needs way more views. This should inspire more people to want to make mods like this maybe bring back halo reach machinimas😮💨
I NEED MORE. THE CUTSCENES ARE SO GOOD
That opening cinematic is the most beautiful thing I've seen all week
Now that is an astonishing level Of passion, The one I was hoping for once mod support for Halo 3 was expanded.
honestly missions like this are where I was hoping halo would go after 3
Great work on the mod looks fantastic on the mcc keep up the good work
I always wondered what High Charity would look like in H3, I would love to see HCE and H2 redone with the H3 engine, great job on this demo man!
this looks unbelievably delicious
This is pretty damn good! I would get it if i new how mods work. Good job to those who made it!
Other than the V-Acting and subpar animations for the characters this is really well made.
(Although both are better than anything I could do.)
Kinda nice to see halo 2 assets being re used for a halo 3 mod. although it is a little goofy to see the contrast in detail in the level compared to the enemies. good mod either way though.

whoah this is amazing
save voice acting still soooo much effort went into this well done
ALRIGHT we need this made officially with credits to the mod creator. This is amazing
Halo 3s plasma rifle literally an ice cream flavor
Phenomenal mod!
Honestly, i'd like to help add some voices if you're looking for side characters!
Very cool!
This is awesome! You should definitely low shield and recharge sound to what the arbiters sounded like in halo 2
this is practically canon in my brain
I don't see why it can't be lol
i love the voice acting
This is basically Halo 2's Cairo Station but with Arbiter. I love this mod!
This is absolutely amazing, the dev should be very proud of themselves
This mod and the animated cutscene in the beginning is awesome it will be cool if there were more Halo 3 DLC like this besides of ODST
cutscenes look good
this was really cool idea
This is awesome! :D Well done!
Holy shit this is amazing.
Kudos to the team who made this.
its wierd seeing highcharitys architecture inside of an ship. Still looks amazing in terms of mission
I love it :) and the voice acting !!
the other dlc we needed.
This looks incredible.
Some of the dialogue and acting could use work, but this seems impressive for a demo.
this looks sick! another great mod i wish i could access through the steam workshop
It's easy to install on your own!
0:59 this reminded me of the beginning for A new hope, would be amazing if someone recreated it In halo it would work perfectly
In the future, I hope to see a halo mod where you can play as ripa Moramee. Even though I wouldn’t be able to play it, atleast I could watch someone else play it.
Halo 3 was halo at its finest, it still has so much potential to be a game as a service and have unlimited updates and make it like tf2, overwatch or even a Destiny 2 style
Let's hope they don't do that.
This is amazing.
This actually look incredible
No one wanted to add a comment cause it said exactly 117 comments, but Shade don't care, shade do what she want.
Halo 3 is timeless
wow they went out and even made cutscenes on SFM! that's dedication
the reusing of map parts does not bother me here because it makes sense that the covenant architecture would be similar across ships and stations
I pretty sure the voice actor for arbiter has cameo and you could have him make a few lines
This is beautiful
Would be a nice touch to have grunts and hunters on your side like in the halo 2 finale. Always wondered why it wasn't that way in halo 3.
They should honestly make a halo game where you play as arbiter the whole game
The lighting, camera work and the music mix could be improved... everything else is great, that voice acting is surprisingly well done
damn boy take all my money
Quell the heresy Arby!
Wow we need a dlc like this for halo infinite it will be perfect
I am gland new uploading you new video lately this is a really cool Halo mod I like the hell they didn't with a cutscene I hope you have an awesome day dude
The future for halo 3 mods is bright
Thank you for highlightning campagin mod
Looks fkn awesome. If you're planning out a full campaign. Will you set up the story so that it might fit for when we see the arbiter in the book glasslands?
Now I want a game all about the arbiter, "Halo: The Arbiter"
