HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Ok , I darkened all my lightmaps using adi-hex-then ch2r 9.3. All was good, level dark, yay. Then I go to skin my bitmaps in dothalo. I extract, skin, inject, that worked fine. But when I tried it on my box, my level(foundation) was still dark but the skins werent showin up. I think it may have something to do with my reflexives but i have'nt got a clue how to redirect stuff or if this last sentence even makes sense. Im a noob as far as how long ive been experimenting with modding but ive got a seriously high literacy when it comes to these type of things. I just need someone to point me in the right direction when ive got probs like this. Any help is church! ( i dont know what the winks for )

Edit : oh yeah i fixed encryption before thats suggested... blah.. blah.. durrp.

Have you cleared your cache, if not skins will not show up.
If you haven't, delete all the files in your X, Y and Z partitions. The maps will take a lot longer to load for the first time once you clear the cache, so don't think its frozen if it takes ages!

Whoops, I cleared them but for some reason they didnt take effect until I turned my box off and on again, hmmm. thanks guy! Back to my map!
