Are you talking about Halo or custom edition hear?

If it is Halo Ce simply extract it into your Halo CE map folder and replace exisitng file :-)

If you have winrar installed, right-click on the map and say Extract Here. Then put this file in your Programs/Microsoft Games/Halo Custom Edition/Map/ folder

Could you give us a direct link to the map download?

Some of the maps created for CE are poorly designed and won't run with all availible classic gametypes (although this has become the minority situation as map designers mature in their knowledge of the HEK and Halo map design). If you provide a link, I can: 1) Tell you if it's truly for Custom Edition, and 2) tell you if the map is screwing up because of an inherent bug in its design.

ok here's the site. the name is grunt gluch. i'm not sure if it's ment for halo ce, since it changes the master chef rather than the hole map.

Thats a Halo PC Map, not CE. I'd say download CE, if you haven't already. There are much better maps. But if you really wanna use that mod, put it in your Halo maps folder (PC not CE), overwriting bloodgulch.map
