Use PPF-O-Matic if the mod is a patch.

halo CE is a seperate downloadable programe you can get apart from halo PC man. No. rephrase. it's a seperate program you HAVE to download apart from your PC...Chewy? Where are you when I need you?

naw, just CE man. http://www.download.com/Halo-Combat-Evolved-Custom-Edition/36 40-74 53_4-10292206.html

Hit the link I gave you (thanks to Chewy Gumball) and download halo Custom Edition. it'll have everything you need.

you'll want to put the map you DLed previously into your halo CE map file (My comp, Local dosk C [if you put Halo CE there], program files, microsoft games, halo CE and then click maps folder.

Also, have you unzipped it? if you need to (and you probably do, use Winrar or Izarc to extract the file to halo PC using the above processes.

You can find all this, and tons of maps at http://www.halomaps.co.uk/

once you DL it and install it to your PC (you'll need your Halo PC CD key so start looking), you'll have the maps folder you're looking for and you can begin hosting your game or playing it if someone else is hosting with that map.

yes. it's just like installing halo PC the first time, but your getting a different game to run. CE has better net code and access to user created maps(but no campaign). You'll need to download the 1.7 patch for Halo CE too (you can find it at the halomaps.co.uk link I gave you (by the by, you'll need to register with halomaps before they let you DL content but its free and its a clean site. Once you've DLed CE, the 1.7 patch for it, and put the map into the CE maps folder, you should be set to play.

supergulchtoy, as I understand it, is a user created (and somewhat rare) map for Halo CE. thats what you've downloaded. If you want to play a user created or modded map, you need to run CE and either host or find a server with the map you have (they're all available for download at halomaps). If you just want to play halo without modded maps, you can choose between Halo PC or CE according to your preference. To play CE, you'll have to have the Halo PC CD in your drive.

you'll like this. you can play some of the Halo 2 multiplayer maps (once you DL them and put them in the CE maps folder) with Halo 2 weps and vehicles.
