I know this has probably been talked to death, but using the forum search yielded no results. Has anyone successfully implemented 60 fps animations into the game? If not, what are the primary difficulties in doing so?

This method only works in singleplayer and requires you to double the timings, half the speeds of everything and re-import all of the animations, also make the gravity 1/4th of the normal amount. It works, but it is not fast to implement and you pretty much have to rework your whole tagset.

So progress is being made then?

Would it be reasonable to expect a playable mod by the end of 2017?

no

It's just a proof of concept that it's actually possible.
It's not really practical to have 60 fps

Why not? Are those bugs absolutely unfixable?

Halo runs at 30FPS, but it's also hardcoded to run at 30 ticks per second.

Ticks are the game's time unit, 1/30th of a second.

All the scripts within the game use ticks to determine the timing between commands, and the duration of commands.

These methods double the ticks per second but halve everything else. This causes scripts to run twice as fast as they should. This completely destroys cutscenes and makes every SP map unplayable.

There's far more issues relating to MP when you take network lag into account, and the fact that others are still running at 30 ticks.

you need to double all animation frames, durations of things, halve the rates and double the lengths of the script and it should run fine.

My method does not even activate in mp, there is other methods that people have done that they say work in mp, but Idk.

Complications happen like the elite jaws, because the animation exporter we have does not accept the node setup, which is why it is broken like that.
