got any ideas on a fix please, ive allready re-ripped recrusivley and over ritten it twice, i just cant seem to see what i need to do, so if you could help that would be great!

HEK+ ripped it wrong, and therefore it is corrupted. Re-rip it again, or just download the bloodgulch scenario tags on the site.

thanks. ill do that now.. :D
edit: re-rip didnt work, so i downloaded one.. then i got this error
edit 2: fixed some of it. heres the new error ( -.- )

If you rip a map by HEK+ you can make it worst so i suggest not to use it unless you get a better graphic card and sound card
or
Make your own tags to create your own map or whatever...
because I had that problem before when I tried to make my own SP from halo combat evolve and i've made it worst...

You have a bad object, so delete all vehicles, scenery, and etc. from the block, and THEN from the palette, and it should work.

ive tried that on another map, deleting everything off it, even light maps and shaders. but i still got errors in 13k a sec that a bitmap is corrupted.

DarkZealot, thanks a lot!! it worked :D ( took a while to see cause my internet was down) :D thanks again!
