Hi, I have recently downloaded Halo Custom Edition so I could do a bunch of AI battles. I've already got every program needed in order to do that(HEK,HEK+ and all that other stuff) So I downloaded CMT's TSC Evolved Tagpack and I extracted one of SPV3's levels to get the tags.
(Link to CMT's TSC Evolved Tagpack is here -> <http://www.nexusmods.com/halo/mods/13/?>)
So then I open up Sapien and I try to upload a tag to the map but then I get this error

Not all of the selected tags can be added to the palette:
You selected one or more files that can't be loaded correctly.
Contact your nearest Bungie programmer for assistance.

I have no idea what is wrong and I don't know how to fix this. I looked at the description of the CMT TSC Evolved MAP download page and I found out that HEK does corrupt files when extracting .yelo maps. Is there any alternative for HEK+ and how do I add CMT's tags to Sapien? Please Help. :(

Yes, there is an alternative to the HEK+: Refinery. I'm the author of it, however there are unresolved issues fully ripping yelo maps. Regular maps rip and recompile perfectly, however I haven't been able to figure out what's causing open sauce maps to not perfectly rip. Something to do with animations from the error message.

You can find Refinery and everything else I've made for Halo here:

You're using OS_Sapien, right? And I take it your extraction using HEK+ was primarily for the Spv3 level you want to put the Evolved tags into? Because those two tagsets don't work well together, so you'll have to be very careful not to mix them if possible.

A very good rundown of how to get things working can be found here:

I would start by trying to get the original Evolved scenario and tags working using the public releases here- the nexus mod post was done by someone outside our team and I don't know if everything there is the final version:

If they open right in OS_Sapien then you know the tagset is correct. From there you can try adding them into your own scenarios. Best of luck!

Edit: Looks like you have another thread where you got further, but the above is still probably good advice.
