Hey there,

I'm unable to see any in-game messages (such as "You've been killed" or chat) in Halo: Custom Edition. I've reinstalled the game (deleted the My Games folder in My Documents, too) but that didn't work.

I've tried running the game with XP-compatibility on and of, and running as an administrator and not. I'm on Windows Vista, any idea how to fix it?

Your issue may be resolved by reinstalling the MSXML 4.0 SP2 Parser and SDK (msxmlenu.msi) located on your Halo Disk.

Yes I had this problem once and that fixed it for me.

Thanks, that worked.

I remember uninstalling that just before the error happened, but couldn't remember exactly what I uninstalled (so I couldn't reinstall it).
