Completly new to modding Halo CE.
So thought I give it a try, my goal is to start with reproduce something like grunt gulch.
So basically bloodgulch with some AI. Seems like a good start to me.
Main reason, is to use the map to create a cinematic.

So I installed HEK and got HEK+.

As all of you know you need the .scenario instead of the .map so I tried to use HEK+ to get this done. Unfortunate, HEK+ will crash when ever I try to use one of the tabs on the top bar above. ( Just showing my knowledge so far here correct me if I'm wrong ;) )

Hot keys do work for the older version, but even then it seems that the map does not produce the .scenario file.

Now in order to get the .scenario file I need to be able to use those tabs.
Anyone with suggestions and how I might be able to fix this problem? Or an alternative program?

My OS: Vista SP2
Compatibility mode does not work! Just so you know, tried that for 95, 98 and XP SP2

Try downloading the latest net framework to fix it. Does it give any error?

If .Net 3.5 is the latest than I already had it installed.

I can confirm that .Net 2.0 apps do work.

Right click on HEK+, properties, compatibility tab, check the "Disable Desktop Composition"
