OK, so I went and made a backup of my Halo 1 tags folder. The second I go to add a couple of tags to my new tags folder. My Halo 1 tags get corrupted. WTF!? I keep getting errors like this. Yet, I HAVE THOSE TAGS. I went in guerrilla and tried to open them. I get some weird error saying it cannot open the tag. Yet my backup of the original tags work just fine. Honestly, WTF!?

Corrupted tags

What dee is trying to say is that he isn't overly helpful.

vehicles\rwarthog\bitmaps\rwarthog_detail_metal is corrupt, delete it and re-rip, or have a friend send you a good copy of that tag.

Alright.
