Its very much worth it. You dont need the Halo 2 gametypes to play the maps, only if you want to start a server (believe me, there are already a bunch)

Bballplayer--make sure you're on the net (duh) and check your firewall. mine was giving me trouble, so I disable it when I play Halo. Or Gamespy may have simply been down. It happens occasionaly.

you also need to if you didnt do this already, unrar the map file. to do so you need to go to rarlabs.com and download winrar and install it. its free and all. then put the map in your map folder for haloCE.

now if you didnt download the map, get it at thier site which is linked in the story.

Heyyo,

I shall explain the mistery of installing them. ;)

and yes, you should ALWAYS run the custom Halo2CE maps WITH these halo2 gametypes.

Go into your "my documents" folder, follow this:

my games > halo custom edition > savegames

Extract all the gametypes into that savegames folder, and now once you start Haloce you should see them. ;)

for an extact folder?

C:\Documents and Settings\*"All Users" or your username*\My Documents\My Games\Halo Custom Edition\Savegames

so for example of all users:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\My Documents\My Games\Halo Custom Edition\Savegames
