ok, first you need a .txt file that you save in your halo custom edition folder.
let's assume you call it message.txt
in it you write your message of the day, for example,
"hello and welcome to my server
play fairly and no cursing allowed
if you have any problems, please contact me at fakename@fakedomain.com"
in this file, you can have a maximum of 4 lines. the above one is probably the maximum, because line 3 is so long.
anyway, then you start your server. in your console, you type "SV_MOTD message.txt"
and now, your message of the day should be displayed to all people who join the server.
