    NOTES:
    - Please note that mid-mission saves will not transfer between PC and Xbox One as they are not compatible.
    - Steam is self-contained and will not impact Xbox or Windows Store saves.
    - This basically means that if you Save & Quit on PC at a checkpoint mid-mission, you must resume your progress on PC as well.
    -- Source: MCC PC Crossplay & Cross-Progression – Halo Support


    Prerequisites:
    - 64-bit Windows 7 (or newer) operating system (How can I tell?)
    - Halo: The Master Chief Collection for PC installed
    - Mods
    - (optional) HudSight app or sticker on your computer monitor to mark where the reticle/crosshair would normally appear


    I will not be linking to or mentioning where to get mods from. You can find Halo: The Master Chief Collection mods easily by searching Bing/Google.


    First, we are going to launch the game and bypass the Easy Anti-Cheat software so that we can run our mods.
    - Press the Windows key on your keyboard, then type Steam.
    - Click Steam in the list of results.
    - Click Library
    - Click Halo: The Master Chief Collection
    - Click Play
    - Select Halo: MCC Anti-Cheat Disabled (Mods and Limited Services)
    - Click Play
    -- IMPORTANT: Achievements will be disabled when running the game and bypassing the Anti-Cheat software. Do not attempt to get any other achievement during normal play. Par scores and mission times will not upload to HaloWaypoint.com.
    - Click Campaigns
    - Click Halo 2: Anniversary
    - Click Playlists
    - Click LASO Campaign
    -- (optional) Choose whether or not if you'd like to have Scoring and/or Time on your heads-up display (HUD), if not just...
    - Click Accept Options
    - Click Start
    - Play through the entire Halo 2 campaign until the final checkpoint on The Great Journey mission.
    -- You might want to consider getting a vehicle into the Control Room (e.g. Banshee or Spectre) to help aid you in defeating Tartarus. If you do that, you will need to get the vehicle into a specific area as seen in the videos below.
    - Continue playing until you reach the Control Room where you will see 4 regular Brutes with Tartarus in the middle.
    -- If you managed to bring a vehicle along from earlier, you should be able to turn around and find it in the room behind you.
    - Press the Esc key (Escape key) on your keyboard. This will pause the game.
    - Click Save & Quit
    -- This should bring you back to the Halo 2 mission playlists screen.
    - Click Back
    -- This should bring you back to the Halo 2: Anniversary screen.
    - Click Back
    -- This should bring you back to the Campaigns screen.
    - Click Back
    -- This should bring you back to the main menu.
    - Click Quit to Desktop
    -- This will exit the game completely.



    Now we will re-launch Halo: The Master Chief Collection with Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) enabled.
    - Be sure to disable your mods, restore the game files to what were originally, or repair your installation before continuing.
    - Press the Windows key on your keyboard, then type Steam.
    - Click Steam in the list of results.
    - Click Library
    - Click Halo: The Master Chief Collection
    - Click Play
    - Select Halo: The Master Chief Collection
    - Click Play
    -- You should see the Easy Anti-Cheat logo and a blue progress bar that will fill up. If you do, achievements are enabled. However, we still haven't actually finished the Halo 2 LASO Playlist yet.
    -- If the game fails to launch, you will need to disable your mods, restore the game files to what were originally, or repair your installation of Halo: The Master Chief Collection before attempting to re-launch the game again.
    - Click Campaigns
    - Click Halo 2: Anniversary
    - Click Playlists
    - Click LASO Campaign
    - Click Resume
    -- (optional) Choose whether or not if you'd like to have Scoring and/or Time on your heads-up display (HUD), if not just...
    - Click Accept Options
    - Click Start
    - You should see the load screen for The Great Journey mission
    - You should be at the final checkpoint where you must defeat Tartarus.
    -- If you managed to bring a vehicle along from earlier, you should be able to turn around and find it in the room behind you.
    - Defeat Tartarus as you would normally. Just be sure to watch out for the Brute reinforcements that enter from the other platform.
    - If you managed to defeat Tartarus, a cut scene will play.
    - You will be taken back to the Halo 2 mission playlists screen.
    - Achievement unlocked.
    -- You will also unlock the Seconds achievement.
