How to Change the Halo 2 Height Mod

"Halo 2" is a first-person shooter that was released on the Xbox and the PC. The PC version can use mods to alter gameplay or game maps. One of these mods is the "Height mod." The "Height mod" allows you change your character's height, how high he can jump and how tall he is when crouching. The mod requires making changes to individual maps, instead of modifying the overall game. Each map can be made with different heights or they can all be made the same.
