Hello All
I'm having problems with opening custom maps that I have downloaded. I have been able to extract all the files for them, but when it comes time to open them, they will not open up on Saipen, Any help please? Thanks

Any Hints?

Corrupt tags.

Did you rip all the campaign maps and at least one MP map from Halo PC before modding? Because doing so will greatly lower the chances of corrupt tags.

ANYways, you need to re-rip clean tags for those to work. Doing the above before ripping from any CE map will work wonders when making/modding a map.

Ok, I'll looked into it and all my scenarioes are working beautifully now. Thanks, I owe you one.
