Just so you know, my name's false advertising.

After well over 4 years, I've come back to playing Halo Custom Edition. I haven't played this game ever since Sophomore year in high school. It's good to see people are still playing CE, so I know I'll have fun again, just not in a computer lab LAN party, freaking kids out with a player profile with the name of the principal. As I logged on today, I've see some posts and profile settings, that made me go, "Whhhaatt? Was I really like that?" Also, I didn't know my user name was Life_Long_Noob_Killer. I guess I was very egotistical back then. Also, I found a topic that I posted about creating a Map. Yeah, I won't be able to do that. But now after all these years my question now is, How do I edit or mod a Halo CE map. I heard that the Halo CE equivalent to Sparkedit is Sapien, I looked all over the internet on how to use Sapien to edit maps, but the tutorials are just the process to fully create a map, with 3ds max for modeling and a bunch of other stuff for well other stuff. I don't want to create a map anymore, I just want to mod a map, just like for Halo Trial people used Sparkedit to mod Bloodgulch. That's what I want to do. So, How do I go about doing it? Please post a full tutorial on modding, and if you're wondering, Yes I've already read the sticky saying Read before asking questions about modding. That sticky is so f-ing confusing.

If you read the post, I said I want to mod Bloodgulch.

Okay. Thanks for the scenario files. One problem, that I remember always happening when I first was playing CE ad trying to mod. Whenever I open the scenario file with Sapien it just crashes. I have Sapien running as admin, in compatibility settings I have disable desktop composition, and its running in XP mode. Any ways to fix the crashing?

check for errors in debug.txt (located in your Halo Custom Edition folder) If you don't see anything strange, then there is a few things that cause errors on some computers, but not all; Dual Core, Dual Monitor. Many computers can run with these, but it crashes from some people until they disable them *shrug* Also, in newer versions of adobe products (CS5 and newer) they include a dll in the system files which sapien hates (although that would of given you a error message telling you the dll path if it was conflicting system files)
