I just made my own box map. Prepped it for gametypes and compiled it. When I play it I get exception.

This is odd, as it opens up in sapien just fine.

This isn't visible when compiling the map, but this is what i got from my debug.

(I think the boldened part is to blame.)

I am almost certain the boldened part is what is wrong.

If anyone has any idea how to fix this, please let me know.

Hazard told me to me to extract all files from blood gulch using HEK+, but that did not work either.

hmmm... well you're obviously missing some sort of ui thing. You say it has no problems in sapien, but you got this when trying to play the map in game? Odd. I assumed that if a map compiled sucsessfully then once it's in game halo doesn't read anything from tags. Tags folder is just for creating maps. But I guess it does reference the tags folder. What have you done with your tags folder so far? Moddified it at all? I assume you don't have a custom hud. Custom main menu? In iether case, try going to "tags packs" somewhere on the bottom left of halompas.org main page and download a file called something like "new tags for levels ui" or something. There are a bunch of tags packs like that all by the same author. replace your ui tags folder with that new one. Compare the 2 and make sure the new one isn't missing anything the old one had. That's the only thing I can think of. probably worn't work.

Alright, thanks for the help.

I just saw in sapien, it said what was in bold when I start the scenario.
