NO! NO! NO!
you CANNOT play DESERTPLAIT NORMALY,
instead, you must enable your console, and type 'map_name desertplat'
that'll do it, but you must be wondering 'What then?' well to quit desetrtplat, you must fall of the cliff in the begining of the level, or press alt-F4 to quit halo CE

and the word 'readme' is not to be ignored

ok, right click on your 'halo custom edition' desktop icon, and select 'properties. on the box that comes up, there should be a box that says target: followev by a directory. by defalt, it reads:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe"
after the last quote, add:
-console
make sure you put a space between the " and the -
it should read:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console
now, when you open halo custom edition, whenever you press ` (button below esc.) a line that says HALO: should appear at the bottom of your screen. then, type the code i stated before to play desertplat
