'''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. | '''Modding''' is the act of altering aspects of a game by manipulating its program code and other resources.

Modding in the ''Halo'' series can be done across all games on PC and [[Xbox 360]] platforms, with the caveat of not being connected to Xbox Live. ''[[Halo Custom Edition]]'', a port of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' for PC, is specifically designed to allow for user mod support and custom content, while ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' allows players to disable the game's anticheat software at launch to enable modding and disable Xbox Live functions such as multiplayer [[matchmaking]]. | Modding in the ''Halo'' series can be done across all games on PC and [[Xbox 360]] platforms, with the caveat of not being connected to Xbox Live.
