It doesn't mean anything, ignore it.

Well...

In the C:/Proggies/Mikrosoft Gamz/Hallo CE/Maps folder, it's looking for toolbeta.map, thing is it's not there.

Bungie/Gearbox used it to test out tool and stuff, and cant find it.

Just... Ignore it, I can compile maps and stuff, and I still get that error. Don't worry.

He didnt... If you're refferring to the "Sad", maybe he has smilies disabled so it displays the alternate text...

Anyways... Im having a problem with the blitzkrieg plugin, I get the error someone mentioned at the beginning of the thread. I got the 3ds max 6 plugin, did the things it said in the readme, and still get the error.

Edit: Stupid me, when I extracted them to the system32 folder, it puts them in a MAX6 folder, had to take them out, fixed :oops:

Tool.exe is in your Halo CE root folder right?

Yes tool is in my CE directory, but I solved it anyways, just went into windows/system 32 and copied CMD command console into CE directory, and it works.

i try to open sapien, but when it loads up a .scenario, it loads it, opens for a second and then closes, and nothing i do seems to help, so what am i doing wrong???? ive tryed reinstalling it, making another map, and checked guerilla to see if there were any missing tags, but everything was fine. WTF is wrong? is there another program i can use instead of sapien for populating the map and radiosity and stuff?
