NO. They are different formats. If you want to play the Halo campaign levels on CE then review the following:

Im not sure, if not you can just rip them, and then recompile them with tool for CE.


this works fine.... but out of curiosity, why can't you just play them maps in HPC? its easier..... saves downloading new maps\re-compiling.

The Halo PC Retail map file has a different format than the Halo CE map file. For example: Halo CE uses a checksum to validate the map and uniquely identify it for multiplayer play. The checksum is also comprised of the map file name and the number is imbedded in the map file at time of compile. Halo PC retail does not have this system.

There is no need for people to re-compile the single player maps to play them on Halo CE because the maps have already been re-compiled. They are available for download in the Single Player maps section of the main Halo CE website.
