I'm so glad I saved the tutorial I made on the bottom. Anyway, the weapon will spawn, but it will respawn, because it's multiplayer. Since it doesn't have a respawn location, it will just dissapear. Read the tutorial below for help. And yes, I made it :)

Weapons
Open up Guerilla, and go to File>New>Item Collection. In Item Permutations, click add. Set the Weight to 100, change the drop down box to weapon, and on the right of the drop down box, browse to your .weapon tag. Set the spawn time to how long you want to wait before the weapon respawns. So if I set it to 20, it would respawn every 20 seconds. Once you finished your item collection, save it somewhere inside the tags folder, preferably inside the weapon folder. Now, to add it in Sapien, open your scenario, and in Hierarchy view, go to Mission>Game Data>Netgame Equipment. Right click to place an empty "beacon". Then, in properties view, browse to your item collection tag, and set the settings, E.G. All games, or CTF only. I'm sure you can figure that out. Then, save the scenario, compile it, and it'll work.

Vehicles
Open up Guerilla, and browse to the folder tags/globals. Then open up the file called globals.globals. I recommend you make a backup of the file first, because you will be replacing some things. Scroll down to Vehicles (about 2/3 down). Open up the drop-down menu at the top, the one that says warthog_mp. Find a vehicle that you don't want, E.G. c_gunturret_mp. Select that, and in the vehicle box, browse to the vehicle you want. Save the globals tag. Then, whenever you add the vehicle in Sapien, it'll show up ingame, but the vehicle you replaced, will not.

Of course, if it's SP, you don't need to edit the globals.globals, and you can add weapons as .weapon tags.

Where did you put the folder weapons? Give me the exact directory, E.G.
C:/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Halo Custom Edition

Found your problem. Every time you download a file that has a weapons folder in it, you open the weapons folder, and put the folder into your own weapons folder. You put them all in the wrong places. For Icee's M6C2, it should be:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\tags\weapons\icee's_m6c2

The others should be in the folder

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\tags\weapons\M24

In this case, the first folder, M24 sniper rifle tags, is unneccessary.

For the last one, it should be

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\tags\vehicles\LAV_25

again removing the first folder.

Open up You're Scenario in guerilla, then try removing the red lines in it.

Or you could also try to rename a other bitmap, WICH IS NOT RECCOMENDED. Yet you say its a test, you could try :P

You could also just rip that from the B40 level, wich would be the best.

Interestingly, the folder detail_and_cube_maps isn't in b40, nor any other campaign file. I recall seeing it in Coagulation...

For Weapons To Spawn Go To NETGAME EQUIPMENT then open the thing with the three dots on it go to item collections single weapons then choose a weapon (s) then put them in the map then they are there with ammo and ammo do the same thing to what you did to the other weapons go to three dots you know then go to item collections go to ammo then your done.
