I have got a problem with Halo CE. It happened after playing on a h2_zanzibar server I got an Exception error. I have not been able to play any server, any level, any LAN game. It gives an Exception error every time I load a game! Please help! I have not been able to play for a day! Thanks in advance.

wow are you ok?! I can't believe you haven't played for a DAY! First take off any mods you have, that includes devmode. Then try reinstalling halo and halo ce, and if that doesn't work download the maps again.

Hmm... this is going to sound like a stupid question, but do you even have the H2_Zanzibar map file in your Custom Edition maps folder?

The few, the proud, the leet.

Exceptions happen when something is missing. If it happens on startup and you have loc.map, sounds.map, bitmaps.map, and ui.map in your folder, then the most likely thing is you have a widget definition doing something it isn't supposed to do. Take out all your .maps besides those four and see if it loads. If it doesn't, then delete those four and reinstall the game. If it works slowly add maps back in until you get the exception.
