Your tags file is in the wrong location.
Reinstall Halo and HEK to the default location. |

Lol, it could be that too XD
But also, if you didn't have your stuff installed in the default location, life could get hard. Edited by MoooseGuy on Sep 30, 2010 at 05:30 AM |

Go to TheGhost's tutorial resource (you can find it on the sidebar of Halo CE Maps).
Go down to the tutorials on level creation, and find a good one (I suggest FireDragon or kirks). If you get a good one, it will tell you how to fix errors, and you will also learn proper level modeling techniques. Sometime in the next month or two, I am going to be making a tutorial on map lighting. |
