For some weird reason, every time I try to join a Hugeass game, it always says server has closed down. But when I go to the game selection screen, the game is still here.

About the only advice I can offer is to remove, then re-install it.

Hope that helps.

Yeah, or you may have downloaded it from a site that really gave you a corrupt version, whether purposely or no. Can you create a game on a LAN, just to make sure the actual map works? And try what ZEN said.

Well I CAN create a game with Hugeass, but not really since my firewall prevents it from showing up... So I can go on the map by making a internet OR a LAN game, but no one can join. And to the other guy... do you mean uninstall and reinstall Halo Custom Edition, or Hugeass?

I think he meant reinstall CE. Just to be sure, where did you get it? Follow this link ...

The few, the proud, the leet.

Several things could have happened. The .map could have been inproperly extracted from the archive, it could have been corrupt to begin with, or your firewall is simply keeping you from joining the game for some reason. It sounds random, but it happens.

My best advice would be to redownload the map, and replace the one in your maps folder. If that doesn't work, try to loosen your firewall settings or manually open the port the server is on. If that still doesn't work, and you have about an hour of free time, download the HCE installer and attempt a repair install.

From experience helping troubleshoot others problems that are similar to this, it is simply a firewall issue.
