Mod Settings Info

This page is for going in-depth into everything added to the Mod Settings Menu by EladNLG whenever you install Halo Announcer. Since there isn't really anywhere to put descriptions of these in that area, I've decided to just put them here!

If you aren't using Mod Settings, ignore this page.

Please note that because of the nature of the Mod Settings menu, any of your stats and achievement tracking can be very easily overwritten. This is intentional, what you cheat is your business. Also note, if you disable Halo Announcer, run the game, then re-enable it, your stats and settings will likely be wiped. Keep this in mind and save them somewhere if you care.

Options

Hardcore Mode - [Disabled/Enabled]

Changes most kill requirements for medals to match their Halo requirements. Instead of 3 kill gaps (3-6-9) they'll instead be 5 kills gaps (5-10-15).

Timed Killstreak Reset Time - [5.5]

Changes the time before your Timed Killstreak (Double Kill-Killionaire) resets. Is 5.5 by default. Most Halo games use 4 and sometimes 4.5 seconds.

Custom Medals - [All/Partial/None]

Because Titanfall 2 has a lot of stuff that Halo doesn't have, a large amount of medals are mixed voicelines and icons that act as new medals, and some have their requirements altered. All enables all of them, Partial disables the wholly new mixed medals, and None also disables pre-existing medals that have had their methods altered.

Medals disabled by Partial include (49):

Legendary Slayer, Blitz, Cleansing, Scourge, Warlord, Immortal, One Man Army, Assault, Mythic, Hero, Killjoy, SWAT, Dogfight, Rally, Juggernaut Spree, Hogpile, Fiesta, Pinata, Action Sack, Wingman, Iron, Showstopper, Soccer, Boxer, Brawler, Blackeye, Headhunter, Skullamanjaro, Juggernaut, Famine, Invasion, Better Luck Next Time, Tough Luck, Crispy, Extra Crispy, Catch, Thunderstorm, King of the Kill, Pancake, Gunslinger, Purge, Unlucky, Falling Star, Yoink, First to Fall, Clusterluck, Annihilation, Armageddon, Vengeance.

Medals also disabled by None include (49 + 13):

Hail to The King, Extermination, Guardian Angel, Return to Sender, Ninja, Dream Crusher, Wrecking Crew, Immovable Object, Unstoppable Force, Nightmare, Boogeyman, Grim Reaper, Demon.

MCC Redesigns - [On/Off]

Toggles the redesigns a handful of Reach medals recieved in the Master Chief collection. Turning this off will have those medals use their old Reach design. Currently changes All Sniper Spree, All Shotgun Spree, All Titan-Pilot Spree, 3 Titan Spree, 2 Sword Spree, 2 Infection Spree, and 2 Zombie Killing Spree medals.

Medal Visual Size (in pixels) [1/75/100/125/150/200/etc.]

Changes the size of the visualizer in the top left corner. This effects the size of any video that is displayed here. Because it's in pixels, you may want it larger than normal if your monitor resolution is higher. "Off" is 1x1 pixel, since making it 0x0 would just have it take up the entire screen.

Medal Background - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the persistent medal background in the top left corner. Disable if you only want it to be there when you earn a medal.

Medal Popup Sounds - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the unique popup sound effect for each tier of medal when you obtain it. If you'd prefer to just hear Jeff speak without all the extra medal appearance sounds, turn this off.

Chat Medal Announcements - [All/Mine Only/Others Only/None]

Toggles the chat announcements for when you or other players obtain certain tiers of medals. All will show all announcements, Mine Only will only show when you earn these medals, Others Only will show everyone else who's earned medals but not you (since it's mostly redundant info), and None removes the chat announcements for medals entirely.

Remember, these are client only messages, so don't be deterred because you think other people will see it.

Timed Killstreak Expire Notification - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the brief red flash and sound effect that plays whenever your Timed Killstreak expires.

Titanfall 2 Killsound - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the base Titanfall 2 killsound. I recommend turning it off since I think the Infinite killsound sounds better without this under it, but it stays on by default.

Halo Infinite Killsound - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the Halo Infinite killsound.

Custom Killsound - [Disabled/Enabled]

Toggles your custom killsound.bik file, assuming you have one.

Halo 5 Headshot Sound - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the extra pop sound effect for when you get a headshot kill.

Halo 5 Assist/Titan/Grunt Popup Sounds - [Enabled/Disabled]

Toggles the popup sound effects for the side-crosshair medals when getting assists, killing grunts, and killing titans.

Hidden 'Skulls' [unfinished] - [Disabled/Enabled]

Skulls are in this mod, though only partially. For now, they're hidden in 5 separate locations on various multiplayer maps. Currently, obtaining them is not saved and they give nothing for finding them. Only really turn this on if you feel like going hunting for them, they'll be more fleshed out in the future.
