Subject: Halo 2 Vista campaign modding

Well, I decided to check out Halo 2 Vista modding, and it's pretty...dead? Well, I get errors when I try to install the map editor off-the-cd, so I settled for modding a campaign map.

Well, I downloaded this tool called Gravemind. As far as I can see, it's pretty bad. It's not that I don't know what I'm doing, but it frequently encounters errors, and seems to be unable to edit a ton of stuff.

Anyways, I want to know if anyone knows where I could find some tutorials for this thing.

Please do not post irrelevant comments pertaining to the gameplay of Halo 2.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

I cannot help you on Tutorials sorry =( but I am just gonna throw Shock120's channel out there, he was the probably the most successful campaign modder but he left H2V some time ago.

As far as Gravemind and the Map Editor goes, Monstrmoose had a great custom map team lead by the great Kills Alone (the player who made that Sandtrap map where you took those screenshots). He is the best H2V map Maker alongside Slaters Fury. Then again you probably don't wanna sign up on another forum just to browse for some help.

Sorry if these links are irrelevant.

I found H2V to be much harder to mod than the original on the Xbox. Specifically, mods that let you play as a Marine (ODST's, with the correct voices, jump height, move speed etc) just don't work on H2V. The game crashes almost immediately. That said, basic mods like the Pelican work etc. By far the best one i've seen is Shock120's Online Co-op mod. It's a shame it was never finished.
