Ok well I tried that and got THIS now..

well ok do i have to download or is it somewhere in my Halo CE directory..if so then what folder?

How do i extract things? I am a mapping newb i will admit and you have been a lot of help hazard

OK so it asks me to download the .net Framework...so I click yes. I download. After Net framework is done installing it says to restart..so i do...then the computr turns back on. I click the HEK+ installer and WTF IT TELLS ME TO DOWNLOAD NET FRAMEWORK AGAIN WHAT DO I DO. Is there any other option. I cannot compile my map without that sneaky little fag bitmap>>> And is there something i can just get rid of so i dont need that bitmap anymore? I didnt put anything related to the halo explosion in gmax or sapien!
