I have 16 .hmt files in the data folder in my level folder, and the scenario is in the tag folder, but the problem is When I want to compile the files I get this

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition>tool hud-messages lev
els\Taos Taos
Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition>_

The hmt files are saved as Unicode and not ANSII

Post ur hud messages here. They should look like this:

obj1= (then your objective)
obj2= etc.

And it looks good if you have >> in ur message so it is:

obj1=>> Enter the Base and slaughter all |n and blow up halo and destroy the univers |n then go on vacation to fiji

|n =new line

make sure your scenario is in levels\taos
and your hud messages in data\levels\taos

then type into cmd: tool hud-messages levels\taos taos_firefight

where taos firefight is the scenario

Sorry for the bump but i have a few suggestions:

Run as admin
Lose the capital letters
Double check you are saving as unicode
and double check you are clicking 'all files' when you are savng the hmt file

That is incorrect, I have a hud-message list working in-game with custom titles other than obj#=.

I know it's not that relevant to this thread at this point, I just wanted to state this so people know they don't need to name them like that.
