Everytime I try to compile any maps, I'm always getting errors such as this:

It usually happens everytime no matter what map it is. I run HEK+ as Admin, and I also run Sapien as Admin.
All I'm trying to do is test if I can put weapons on a HaloCE Map but I always get errors.

Reinstall HEK, you used the overwrite option in HEK+ which messed up the bitmaps for the fp arms.

Okay, but before I re-install, are these settings what messed it up on HEK+:

P.S: and do I delete the tags Folder?

hmm thats weird, it seems like something else corrupted your bitmaps, seeing as you have Okay settings. Just reinstall, probably a bad HEK install, and ONLY delete your tags folder if you dont have anything important in it. If nothing important, then just leave the tag folder there and reinstall.

Do you think you can help me via Teamviewer?
So you can do everything and pin-point the errors.
I usually look around places to see other people's problems so I can fix mine but since I can't find my problem I decided to post on here as a Last Resort.

Try open your scenario in sapien again, if it crashes (which it should) paste the debug here.

It doesn't crash, do you think you can help me on Teamviewer or AMMYY?
I been looking everywhere to find out why it's only cyborg that fails.

This seems to be a case of a rip gone wrong. As it appears to be the standard cyborg.biped, I highly suggest you do the following:

1) Uninstall HEK, completely. This means no tags folder, no data folder, nothing. Backup anything important in your data folder, if necessary.

2) Reinstall HEK

3) Using HEK+, rip ALL of Halo PC's campaign maps and AT LEAST one multiplayer map.

4) You can now begin to rip custom maps.

If you've followed these instructions TO THE LETTER, then you will be able to build maps again. It's usually because nobody actually rips from PC first before CE that they get tag errors.

Okay but here's another reason why I think cyborg can't be read UBE Chief:

When I loaded a certain map on HEK+ and tryed to extract it Recursively (checkmarked) this popped up.

P.S: Where can I get the Halo PC Campaign maps and does CMT Campaign Maps work?

oh god

close sapien,guerilla,halo everthing process what are using the map

I already checked that, nothing related to Halo was running. ._.

Didn't you install Halo PC before you installed CE? *coughpiratealertcough* :x

As for the other issue, have you tried to just delete the cyborg folder from your characters folder then re-rip the tags?

Try ripping the cyborg .biped again and the fp folder in it
