Just dawned on me that Halo CE came out 14 years ago this past May... I was 14 when it came out. Crazy how time flies.
A few days ago I just reinstalled CE on my laptop, imported all my old maps, and installed OS and SPV3 (glad to see that came out!)
I haven't really been active or playing CE since about 2012. I have managed to glean that Halomaps no longer updates (something about too big of a backlog) so everything is on CE3 now. I am running v.1.10 now, but it looks like custom map servers are somewhat scarce still?
Besides CE3, the last things I downloaded were Lumoria and Firefight Descent. What other single player goodies are out there? Are any new multiplayer maps worth a download?

The only mod with reliable map download servers is hac2 at this point in time. Opensauce and hac2 are not very compatible with each other though.

This map and prior/subsequent iterations of it are multiplayer must-haves.

Thanks for the links. I was aware of most of the map pack maps, but not of bigass, somehow. Is it basically another hugeass/cold snap/extinction?
I had also heard a lot about the Takedown / Project Lawson series. I think I played an early beta or the first episode? What's the latest version of that?

I think what you're referring to was probably MattDratt's extremely early "Takedown" release when he was just starting out. Here's what to play for Takedown: - The Introduction: https://haloce3.com/downloads/singleplayer/original-singleplayer/takedown_theintroduction_v1-1/?_sf_s=Takedown - Project Lawson: https://haloce3.com/downloads/singleplayer/original-singleplayer/takedown_project_lawson_v1-2/ Now here's a list I have for singleplayer projects I'd recommend (might've missed I few). Skip the ones you've already played: Campaign:- SPV3 - TSC Evolved - Takedown Introduction - Takedown Project Lawson - Project Lumoria - Halo Covert Ops - The Great Infestation - Spleen - DMT-OD SP4 Upskirts - Epsilon Sp - SOI's Singleplayer Mod - New Mombasa Beta - Halo Slender Swamp Edited by UncookedMoa on Jul 13, 2018 at 04:23 AMEdited by UncookedMoa on Jul 13, 2018 at 04:24 AM

Covert Ops was always a favorite of mine. New Mombasa Beta is definitely one to keep an eye on, that project's not only fun but cohesive in terms of aesthetics and design.

Am I right in saying New Mombasa Beta has been replaced by the Fall of Mombasa? I don't think it's in beta stage any more
