if someone could help me out I'd give you cookies and pies

its like this for all the classic maps so could someone send them to me?

Since I'm a nice guy. I will give you the tags for free.
Here you go bro: http://www.filefront.com/16041933/pwner5889.rar/

I gotz a story to tell, Once Upon a Time:

okay I don't know if I did this right, I renamed my old effed up tags folder and made a new folder and named it tags, ripped the old protected maps and tried to open the maps in sapien.

It failed and I made this forum.I downloaded the tags and went to put them in the ui/editor or watever he said but I didn't have one even though I extracted all the tags from the maps, so I copied the one from my effed up tagset, pasted it in the new one, and replaced the old normal with the new normal and it gave me this

So I'm just gonna ask this, since I'm such a failure, if someone has a tags folder with nothing important in it that works, can you upload a version and give it to me?I'll back up my tags folder this time I swearz

-THE END!

get new scorpion tags from the site.

what do scorpions have to do with anything? :/

The error you received is most commonly directed towards the scorpion tank.

the last time I listened to someone about the scorpion tank it didn't do me any good

As I explained before, the 3157 error is Halo's version of a "null pointer exception". Something is referencing something that does not exist. When you extract a map, and overwrite your old tags, chances are that you'll have overwritten the scorpion. When this happens, HEK+ messes it up, and it no longer will function properly. If you won't even attempt something that might solve your problem, then we can no longer help you.

sorry no dice

In your globals.globals, change it so that the only vehicles referenced are the warthog (so make it so all six vehicles are the warthog). We shall see if the scorpion is the problem or not.

theres the proof it's not rite there:

every one in globals was changed to warthog (like u said)


okay...yeah.. 4got to delete the scorpions in the scenario, it was them, I lose

BUT I ALSO WIN!!!! ITS OPEN YESSSSS!!!!

Well thats not surprising to me.

You infact never did "fix" your scorpion tags, if you had then you could leave the scorpions in the globals and in the scenario.

Download the fixed scorpion tags and overwrite yours.
