**Foundry** is a Blender extension that facilitates a complete asset import & export pipeline for Halo Reach, Halo 4, and Halo 2 Anniversary Multiplayer.

## Requirements

- Blender 4.2 or above

- One or more of the following Halo Editing Kits: [HREK](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1695790/Halo_2_Anniversary_MP_Mod_Tools__MCC/),

[H4EK](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1695792/Halo_4_Mod_Tools__MCC/),

[H2AMPEK](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1695790/Halo_2_Anniversary_MP_Mod_Tools__MCC/)

To install the afformentioned editing kits, you must own the respective MCC title on Steam.

> [!CAUTION]

> Remove any previous installations of Foundry before following the installation guide. The legacy addon version may conflict with the extension.

## Installation

Foundry only needs to be installed once. Thereafter, you can use Blender to download any future updates automatically. If you would prefer to install a local standalone version of Foundry, skip to the Standalone Installation instructions below this section.

- Launch Blender and open Preferences 
  

- Navigate to the **Get Extensions** tab and then click **Repositories**

- On the **Repositories** windows click the `+` icon and then **Add Remote Repository**   

- In the **Add New Extension Repository** window copy and paste the following text into the **URL** field: `https://iloveagoodcrisp.github.io/Foundry/api/v1/extensions/index.json`

- I recommend checking the **Check for Updates on Startup** box, but this is optional

-  Now click **Create** to link the remote repository to Blender   

- Enter `Foundry` into the search box and you should see the **Foundry** addon show up with an option to install   

- Once installed, you should have a **Launch Foundry** button show in the top right of the 3D viewport. Click this button to load the addon   


## Standalone Installation

- The standalone zip can be downloaded [here](https://iloveagoodcrisp.github.io/Foundry/api/v1/extensions/io_scene_foundry.zip)

- Locate the file you downloaded named `io_scene_foundry.zip` and then open Blender. Drag and drop the zip file into Blender and press **Ok** on the dialog box that appears
