Are you putting them in the Map folder? Are you extracting the .map file from the .rar archive?

Go here for to download "Custom Edition"
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=3&fid=410
Do the setup, it is the same as the regular game.
Once done with that get WinRAR from here
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Get the version WinRAR 3.62. It is the first one in the list of "English WinRAR and RAR release"
After that install WinRAR.
Now go to http://hce.halomaps.org/ and select the maps you want and select the save option for downloading and put them on your desktop.
Once they are finished downloading right-click on them and scroll down to the command "Extract to *name of file*"
[/quote]
This will create an open-able file.
To get to the Halo: Custom Edition map folder you do as follows
1. Go to my computer
2. Select the hard drive you have Halo on (This will probably be the C drive)
3. Select the folder program files(It will say that some files are hidden, tell it to unhide them)
4. Select the folder "Microsoft Games"
5. Select the folder "Halo Custom Edition"
6. Select the folder "maps"
7. Copy the .map file from your folder on your desktop that was made and add the map to the list
If you have other questions go here

Start reading from the point where you haven't done them.

In high definition baby!

You do not need Wizar or Winzip. Just extract it normally out of the map's folder to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps

Are you referring to regular zipped folders? Because I don't think anybody uses those anymore.

Something I found rather annoying about WinRAR--once I installed it, all my zipped folders were converted to RAR format, which annoyed the hell out of me. I found zipped folders to be much more easier to use...

That's why you don't use winzip or winrar, both sucky programs.
