i dont know all this stuff like how to install stuff. so can some one help me wit installing the halo editing kit. cuz i thought that all u needed to do was just install the program and u can play it but it says in the instructions u have to put files places and start 3ds max (what ever that is).

I think this is the tutorial you want: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=412

correct me if im wrong

when i downloaded it one of the files said tutorial. but i did get the editing kit from the link u have. but the editing kit plus do i have to get tags now and where do i put the tags to put in the editing kit

open up the editing kit plus and load the map you want

select all of the folders and say 'extract to' and then your tags folder, which is in your Halo Custom Edition folder. Make sure that the checkbox that says something about original folders is checked.

After it is done extracting, run Sapien, and open up the .scenario you just extracted tags for. it should be in 'tags -> levels -> test -> *map name' if it is a multiplayer map, and 'tags -> levels -> *map name' if it is single player.

but this doesnt make sense shouldn't u be able to put the (lets say the tag was a gun) gun where ever u want

when sapien is accessing the files, it looks in designated places in the tags folder

you can have quick reference tags elsewhere, but the tags used in the scenario must be in the tags folder

No they must be in the tags folder or the hek+ will not extract them into the scenario. And sapien ony reads .scenario files.
