in ur halo custom edition short cut right click then hit properties,
then in the window that comes up u should see the word target and in the field it should say something like this

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\halo.exe" now at the end of it u put in -console so now it should look like this
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\halo.exe" -console

now be carefull that the -console is outisde the quotes

then when in game hit the ~ button and it opens

the console lets you do certain commands, like sv_kick, sv_ban etc.
it can also be used in CE's devmode to test the map.

I tried it and a popup said this:

The name "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe"-console specified in the Target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct.

What did i do wrong :( ?

"D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console

theres a space between \haloce.exe" and -console

what do you type to kick and ban people? Do you have to hold down the keys when doing it?

to kick people type
sv_players
then a number will appear besides each players name.
type
sv_kick 5
or w/e
anynumber works
Same for ban
except its
sv_ban 5
But you could also type
sv_ban Yomama
but who would want to

dont forget about hte important "sv_tk_ban ###"

type that to make the number of tk's to be banned 999 instead of 4 (if you want complete control)

or the other command where you can take people off the ban list..in case a friend gets banned


Here is how the ban works (if you wanna know)

Banned Once --------------One Minute
Banned Twice -------------One Day
Banned Three Times -----One Week
Banned Four Times -------Forever
^^for that server

You can't use any "SV" console commands unless you know the rcon password for the server you are playng on or are running a listen server from your own computer.

Note on the side

After banning someone.Go to your documents where Halo gamesaves are stored.View the ban list.It has thier Halo cd key,and should have ip.

Dont use this for anything but good.Dont post the keys online

You just have to press "~", and then the text box will appear. Use the commands from there. "~" to get back out.
