THE XBOX EXPERIENCE
Ever wanted to have a Halo 2 experience closer to the original Xbox? Have no fear. I have just the thing for you.
Halo 2 Reclaimed aims to restore the Vista port of the Halo 2 campaign back to its Original Xbox state as much as possible through the limited modding capabilities of Halo 2 Vista. Improvements may or may not be made to the mod over time. Although the mod is made mainly for purists, there's something for everyone here. You will definitely find a thing or two here that can enhance your Halo 2 experience. All information is found in the Documentation & Guide Document.

SETTING UP HALO 2 RECLAIMED
1.) Download Halo 2 Reclaimed at: https://www.moddb.com/mods/halo-2-reclaimed, then copy the maps to your Halo 2 maps folder (within the game’s location). If you’re using an Nvidia RTX or GTX 16 series (e.g. GTX 1660) GPU, use the foliage patcher provided.
2.) Use together with Project Cartographer: https://www.halo2.online/download/
3.) Ensure reverb and space muffle is enabled by editing the registry. (Registry edit in: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Halo 2\Audio Settings)
4.) Set anisotropic filtering to 16x in your GPU's Control Panel for Halo 2 to improve distant texture clarity.
5.) Leave in-game anti-aliasing off to make sure no polygon meshes are visible. Use your GPU’s solution instead.
6.) Set Gamma to Disabled.
7.) Use TexMod (Reclaimed.tpf) for OG Xbox textures, further enhancing the game's faithfulness to the original.
