i have had halo pc for a while but havnt played with my new setup cause the V/C was crap (would sometimes slow to 7 fps average 30fps). I just got a 6800gt and everything is sweet average over 120 fps. I downloaded Halo:CE and wanted to play on some custom maps but everytime i try to i get a pop up saying unable to join. (they're not locked or Passworded). do i need to download the maps individually or do they automatically dl like in unreal tournament? if i have to dl them where do i get them? and is there a "map pack" or is it each individual map? thanks for the help.
i also already dl'ed the new patch 1.07.

Go to halomaps.org and take your pick of the maps there. Then put them in your halo ce maps folder. But open them with winraR.

Do i have to install each one individually or is there some kind of group dl/install thing?

You don't have to install each one by one. I know some websites offer packs of maps for download but , sorry, I can'r renember. I think muffmiester's website has some good packs. Google it.

Here's what I do: download a bunch of maps for like, 30 minutes, and save them all to the desktop. When you're done, select them all and unzip them to the maps folder in HaloCE. Then, go to it and check they're all there and not in folders, and if they are then take them out and place them in the maps directory.

Just drop them in the maps folder, no need to install.
