HowTo / Notes

HOWTO get built-in chat to work

As tested in WINE 1.1.26, HALO CE needs native MSXML4 to properly parse the "*.ksml" files in "\content\" dir.

 An easy solution to this is getting WineTricks and install "msxml4" (winetricks.sh msxml4).

 

This bug is #19499

In order to display correctly

use -windowed argument to play.

example: wine haloce.exe - windowed
