Halo - Fatal Error

We have detected that one of the Halo PC files is missing or corrupted. We recommend removing and reinstalling the game. (shaders\vsh.bin)


I've tried reinstalling the game ,but I got the same message again. This is for the Halo: Custom Edition, the normal Halo works fine.

Ok, when you uninstall you got to go to your halo CE folder and Delete it. i think the uninstaller is leaving those files there, so just delete it then reinstall

Or download Halo Custom Edition from another source. The file may have been corrupted when the you downloaded CE, or when the host uploaded it to his website.

Try seeing if pressing repair all files on the installer will wor, thats what I did, or one of your maps is dead.

I had the same problem after I wrecked my hard drive (combination of virus-filled flash drive and pulling plug on computer while running disk defrag). I had to abandon Halo on that computer and only play it on my other one.

Install it to a different folder, like instead of calling it Halo Custom Edition, call it HaloCustomEdition or something. It should work.
