'''Modding''' is the act of altering aspects of a game by manipulating its program code and other resources. A number of things qualify as mods, ranging from palette swaps to the creation of entirely new maps. Some mods involve the alteration of game resources, while others run independently of a game and edit its working memory. Because modding is often used for cheating, it is not allowed on [[Xbox Live]] and the use of a modded Xbox on Xbox Live will result in a terminated account. However, modding can be done without penalty in [[Halo Custom Edition]], an expansion of [[Halo PC]]. | '''Modding''' is the act of altering aspects of a game by manipulating its program code and other resources.

This tool will work on Halo 2 Vista's Campaign along with a few other Halo games! The software does not have protection for Multiplayer maps, but instead hides all Tags from normal multiplayer .map files and puts them in a single file. | This tool will work on Halo 2 Vista's Campaign along with a few other Halo games!
