I’ve spent some time optimizing OpenSpartan Workshop (the latest release is definitely mostly a performance improvement), and so you can now enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Get a glimpse into the aggregated playlist wait times for Halo Infinite.

A new version of OpenSpartan Workshop is released, adding support for The Exchange, ranked tier counterfactuals, comprehensive event tracking, a faster match search, and more.

I talked about Halo Infinite career ranks some time ago, but I kept needing to come back to the idea that I just wanted to have a quickly accessible list that just tells me what rank experience requirements are and how far along to Hero each rank is. No ads, no, fluff, just the table. Said table is now here.

With the launch of Halo Infinite in 2021, 343 Industries introduced the concept of battle passes in Halo. The concept itself is not new in the gaming industry per-se, but it’s new to Halo. It’s effectively a limited time opportunity for players to earn in-game rewards during what is referred to as a season (although that term becomes a bit overloaded now).

Another week, another release of OpenSpartan Workshop (1.0.3, build ESCHARUM-03052024)! This one was a fun to build because it introduces a few improvements that will delight its users.

Maintenance release inbound! I had to fix a few bugs with the performance of the application, add some parallelization, and update the installer to make sure that the .NET components are not uninstalled when the upgrade of OpenSpartan Workshop happens.

Right after the release of the first version of OpenSpartan Workshop, I am following-up with an update that adds some quality-of-life improvements and some minor new functionality. You can get the latest release on GitHub.

The first version of OpenSpartan Workshop is officially out.
