ok, so i had a tutor helping me out with Modding
(quite odd since i've been playing Halo Ce for over 2 years, and i still don't know how to model/mod/skin/animate/ etc.)

so, im trying out modding, simple, and could get me started,

but for now, i have edited a map saved as a scenario, so, i need help putting it to a .map
format...

i heard you need tool++ so i have that, but i have no clue how -_-

you've got tool++? well open it, and from the list at the left hand side select "build-cache-file". then click the 3 dots button and select your scenario. then click "run tool". It will place a map file in your maps directory. now run halo!!!

damn, i feel like such an idiot -_-

so, it places to the map's dictionary by itself, you dont have to set it up?

oh, and how long does it take usually?
cause it's taking awfully long.

That's probably a bad thing. Takes me less than 2 minutes for a 128 mb cache file.

meh
it's not even going


i have halo ce installed in my
Data (D:) instead of the main harddrive (:C)

try using normal tool - tool build-cache-file [directory of your scenario]

i clicked on a normal tool in the halo ce folder, it didn't do anything but open this commands list then disappear right away.

Look up a tutorial for setting up a shortcut for tool.

Ok,
I reinstalled halo 1 and ce both in my :C now,
including hek+, Tool++, etc.

I opened up Hek+, and open up hang em high from the Halo ce folder, then i extract hang em high
to the levels/ test folder.

i open up sapien, edit the map by deleting weapons, and adding some just to test, save it underneath the test folder.

i open up tool++ and click "Build-Cache-File" i open up my hangemhigh, which i renamed "hangemlol" (which is in a .scenario format) i click run tool, and i wait for around 1 hour, and nothing happens... this loading sign appears only if i run my mouse around the Run Tool Box.

So can someone help with this?
and if nothing works, does this mean i have to send the file to someone and get them to put it in a .map format?
or is there another way?

like i said, look for a tutorial for setting up tool, then try using normal tool - tool build-cache-file [directory of your scenario]
