Yeh, like the readme says, you can still die when fighting at very close range. These are 'headshot' type kills that bypass your shields. Keep your distance and you'll be fine.

Awesome work! I'll tear ass through this game once my shifts are over.

As for the dying thing, like they said- some one-hit-kill things will still kill you. I've had a couple of elites sneak up on me with the sword and whack me and if you're fighting the laser-drones and you kill one in a melee attack, it'll lower your shields instantly, even super-shields.

I'm loving the extra-grenades thing though, sticking plasma grenades onto people is a whole game unto itself.

kind of sucks for me as i cant go unlimited and you guys have access to trainer v2 whilst im having to wait another week for the first one to come out.

Is there a way of coming unlimited without paying? Just for like a day so i can download this baby?

regarding the deaths with armor modification. i cannot say this for certain, but what the trainer is doing is setting your health to 1000 times it's normal value. however, as you play the game you are hit with damage along and along, so this value declines and declines. it has to be less than 1 times it's normal value for your set to turn normal so things that do massive damage, like a head shot and close hits with certain weapons may set your armor below zero. it's a good idea to periodically press the F1 to reset it to it's highest value. we would have the game constantly do that for you but unfortunately for the uncracked, store-bought versions of the game the protections MS put in would crash the game.

hope this helps explain-

Im having some trouble with this;

I have the "run as admin" option greyed out, so i right click + select "Run as Admin" instead.

Still no joy, on Vista 64bit Ultimate

i think your problem is 64 bit related, i had to do the same steps and turn off uac. But i'm on 32 bit and it worked with no issues at all. sorry about your problem, if you find a way around it let us know so everyone can use your experience!

hope you get it working

I have Vista 64 bit. Game crashes when I try to activate any options. Is there any way to make it work?

I have the patched installed and I run the trainer as the administrator. I tried to run the game normal and as an administrator but still crashes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We don't have Vista 64-bit so we have no way to test or debug on that operating system, sorry. Most of our trainers do work fine on 64-bit though, this Halo 2 was just especially sensitive to our trainer changes.
