OK I'm a bit of a novice at modding halo ce but I've had experience using hek and modding tags in the past. So recently I decided to reinstall halo ce and hek to give map making another shot however every time I try to use sapien it seems to crash giving me this error:

Either your bitmaps are corrupted or you don't have the proper permissions. Make sure that the files you need have all permissions, then if that doesn't work, disable UAC and make sure you are an administrator.

Make sure your entire Halo CE folder has all permissions as a last resort.
