Noooooooo, he's not even there yet.

He needs to know where to put them in his tags folder, and then I suppose, how to put them into a map.



It says so in the readme for the file, which you can also find below everything else on the page that you downloaded it from:
"Installation: Simply overwrite your old tags folder with this one, you will then see a new folder in your tags directory called "CMT"

The directory to the weapon tag is cmt\weapons\human\smg\smg_cmt.weapon"

yeah, make an .item_collection. set it to "all games." To compile your map, put this in tool:
tool.exe (or just tool, w/e) build-cache-file levels\*levelname*\*scenarioname
so, if I was compiling a bloodgulch scenario named suicidemouse (lolreferences,) it would be like this:
tool build-cache-file levels\test\bloodgulch\suicidemouse
click enter, and if it says "successfully built cache file" somewhere near the bottom, you're good. Load up Halo and your map will be in there with your weapon.

Missing these tags, and most likely the tags related to those. Extract them using HEK+ from a map that has them.
