| '''Developer mode''', or "Devmode", is a utility used primarily for ''[[Halo Custom Edition]]''. It allows commands to be entered during gameplay using a console and is commonly used to test user-created maps. | | == Overview == |
| | '''Developer Mode''', or devmode, is a feature that can be turned on in [[Halo Custom Edition]](Halo PC) if desired. It allows cheats to be used for testing of maps, which are entered through the console. To enable the devmode, go to your desktop, click on the 'Halo: Custom Edition' icon (or whatever you have named it), and then open the menu, and select 'copy'. Then select an empty space on your desktop and click 'paste'. Then rename it 'Halo CE devmode' or something similar. Then, right click the icon and select 'properties'. You will see the words "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe", with the quotations. Change this to read: ""C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe"-Screenshot -console -devmode. Cheats with [#] next to them, type 1 to activate or 0 to deactivate. |

| '''Alldev''' is a devmode program that works for Halo: PC and for Halo: Custom Edition [[Multiplayer|multiplayer]]. Basically, it allows server hosts to cheat. Non-hosts can use the lesser cheats, but cheats such as invincibility can only be achieved by the host. Often, people will host servers with Alldev for the sole purpose of having fun with cheats on.

| '''Devtrainer''', or '''Developer Trainer''', is another devmode program which also works for Halo: CE. Instead of allowing the user to use commands on the console, it has a simple list of command codes built into it. Basic cheats such as super jump and invincibility can be switched on with the press of a button. One of DevTrainer's greatest features is its built-in ability to freeze time, allowing the player to stop all slow-moving projectiles, grenades, AI-controlled characters, and vehicles. It does not allow the player to freeze other players in place, unless they happen to be driving a vehicle.
| | Devtrainer is another devmode program which also works for Halo: CE. Instead of allowing the user to use commands on the console, it has at least eleven command codes built into it. Basic cheats such as super jump and invincibility can be switched on by a click of a button. What makes Devtrainer better than Alldev is that it has Time Freeze built into it. Just by clicking K, time freezes and clicking L will make time flow. |
