Something smells fishy...

I'm having a problem specifying my cusotm gametypes with Halo Custom Edition Dedicated Server.

I recieve the error: Unkown Gametype [gametype name].

I created a shortcut to Halo Custome Edition Ded. In the target line I put:
-path C:\My Documents\My Games\Halo CE\savegames\kill

In the init.txt file I entered the "kill" custom gametype.

But I'm recieving that error.

I looked at this webpage at Halomaps.org:
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=318

It has a very minimal amount of instruction.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I found this:

Using the "Game Type Fix Utility" I was able to fix my problem to the extent that my custom gametype can now be used. But I can't edit what vehicles are available in the map.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

I had the vehicle problem, too. Setting them to "none" actually made Halo CE crash. :|

Yeah. See I set up my custom gametype to have only warthogs. But whenever I play there are tanks too. I'll try setting vehicles to none and see what happens to me.

Good luck!
