main menu item pointing to different xbe

Could someone point me in the right direction....I want to have the "campaign" item in the main menu point to a different xbe for a group of maps I have put together from downloaded ppfs. Basically I want it to work just like the old "demos" item now points to the nmp xbe.

Thanks for any help!

Cant do it cuz that points to a different part of the UI.map but with the demos it is already pointing to a default.xbe so what u can do is just have ANOTHER demos pointing to ANOTEHR .xbe file AFTER u go to the next thing, so it would go like. Halo regular, then halo NMP, then halo CXE, then Halo(ur name of map pack) like that.

Thanks for the reply, that makes sense. Now I am in need of help finding info on how to go about editing the xbe so that it knows where to look for the maps, if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks again

I was thinking about somethign like that also, but not being a xbe modder, I went the easy route and hardcoded menu items into my avalaunch menu. Right at the top I have separate entries for CXE, retail, NMP1.1 and NMP2

Pretty simple and once your in you can pretty much swap around between them all.
