Heh. Heh. HAHAHA!!!

Halo Custom Edition is an awesome standalone app that runs with...
-better netcode (less lag) than HPC
-the ability to play user-created custom maps availble through download

Let's start with what you can use through HCE's custom maps...
-Mechs
-Crossbows
-Battle Axes
-Broadswords (as in, metal)
-Staffs
-Multiflavored Banshees *coughyellowcough*
-Multiflavored Warthogs
-Drive a wraith
-Fly a pelican
-Fly a longsword
-Fly a covie Dropship,
-Energy Sword
-Battle Rifle
-Brute Shot
-Covie carbine
-Much more, but I'm too lazy to list em all

And that's just what you can use in HCE. Maps are a whole different story...

halo CE is a free addon if you already own halo PC if you have halo PC, you just type your halo PC cd-key. if you don't own halo PC, you can buy it. if you don't want to, you're out of luck.

There is no single-player for CE. CE is a multiplayer-only addition.

We NEED MORE CE PLAYERS!!!!!!! Join now!! Keep the dream alive!! lol Its a lot of fun because you can play HUNDREDS if not thousands of user created maps, and a ton of them are actually a lot of fun!! Go to gearboxforums.gearboxsoftware.com (no www) and go to the CE Topic for more info and stuff..
Also, halomaps.org is a great place to get maps (CHecK Out My Map!!! Its called Jugular!!)
and its on the front page right now.

Also, download the file and to get teh level in your CE directory correctly, put it in your "maps" folder, the level should be in a .map format... Then you can either load up an internet game in CE, or start your own with your levels and enjoy them!! GL!!!


PS.
Download Jugular :D

Get Halo HEK (Availible at Halo Maps), and get information from it at Cortana or The Gearbox Forums.
Get maps from:
http://www.halomaps.org
http://www.halo-universe.com
http://www.halocity.net
http://files.halomods.com
Get Tags From:
http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com (It might be the other way around)
Use Sapien to apply tags and get tons of error messages!
Use Gorilla to edit your map with gravity, fog, whatever...
I hope I helped.
To all of you people who just got Halo Custom Edition:
h2_zanibar, h2_Mombasa, anything that starts with h2_, h2 coagulation, tons of other maps are highly popular and are played often on Halo Custom Edition. There aren't many people playing it, though.
There are certain "SP" maps that aren't really SP, but are concidered SP. There's three out so far: H2 Library for CE by Masters Two others that I forgot.

You have to create a whole new map if you want to use different tags. You can't just download them and apply thwm into your maps.

CE is great where can fly vheicles such as the Pelican that u cant do and so much more,the only 2 problems I have with CE is:
1)I find it more laggy than combat evolved
2)Not enough people playing on CE
