I talked my friend into letting me use the bittorrent on his computer cos no one replied when I asked if there was another way. Thanks, now my friends computer has a virus he can't get rid of and he is pissed at me. Thats what I get for being polite and asking if its ok to download from angrycamel.com instead of just taking it? A special thanks goes to whoever had the virus.

To Rokcade, I was havin the same problem. I talked to Angrycamel and he saud that the path of my directory was to long. I should put the whole conv mappack folder somewhere on my harddisk (C:/) so that my directory would become C:/Haloconv. This solves the problem!

Good luck,
Martijn

BTW I believe that the mappack is downloadeble somewhere at hxbdev.org, dunno for sure though

Anyone having trouble getting the pack from the torrent can feel free to get it from my site. The link has been posted on hxbdev.org since the night I realesed. I just wanted to see how many people would scream and cry for it without actually looking first. So here it is, easy to get to and find. A direct link to the download from my site. Please do not abuse this privilege or I will revoke it. Use the torrent first. If that does not complete or doesn't work for some reason, then as a last resort you can suck down the bandwidth from angrycamel.com.

Sorry to be so sracastic, I am really sleepy.

Did you say that you put the installer in the NMP one? Just install it as it was downloaded, without changing anything. If you want to have NMP2+CXE on there first then install it before running this installer. There is a way to combine the two installers, but its not as simple as putting stuff in there like you described. If you are interested in getting them to install at once then you can read the 5-6 page HMPi tutorial (http://files.halomods.com/viewtopic.php?t=18351) to learn how to make this possible. Otherwise if it was just the path error then the fix that Martijn Mentioned should work just fine.

Thanks for the heads up about the problem with Reactor Room. I can almost garantee that with Halo 2 so close this will not be fixed. Now that it is know people can know to either avoid it or enjoy it. Either way its great that you notified us all about the bug.

just wondering what all files need to be where, i ran out of room on my modded box's hddso now i'm gonna burn this pack to a disc, just wondering what all files need to be where, then i'll use qwix and nero to burn it like every other game i do, just need to know the folders, files, etc.

angrycamel · Post by **angrycamel** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:16 am

All you need to have Halo run, is an .xbe file and its corrosponding maps folder. Of course the buildVersion and where the maps are located have to match between the two or else you will get a black screen.

So for this pack in particular the directory structure would go like this:

<cd>
- <mapsFolder>
  - <name>
    - conv
    </name>
  - <maps>
    - Battle Creek
      Bloodgulch
      Putput
      Wizard
      Ratrace
      Derelict
      Boardingaction
      Prisoner
      Sidewinder
      Hangem High
      Damnation
      Chill Out
      Longest
      UI
    </maps>
  - <buildVersion>
    - 01.10.12.conv
    </buildVersion>
  </mapsFolder>
- <executable>
  - <name>
    - default.xbe
    </name>
  - <cacheSize>
    - 115
    </cacheSize>
  - <mapsFolderPointer>
    - d:\conv\
    </mapsFolderPointer>
  - <buildVersion>
    - 01.10.12.conv
    </buildVersion>
  </executable>
</cd>

tristanx · Post by **tristanx** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 9:32 am

2bit,

i didn't have a problem with any other map on ctf (except tutorial ce).

question,

wasn't there supposed to be a ui with death island replacing the halo?

ac,

thanks for the hard work.

mrhyperpenguin · Post by **mrhyperpenguin** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 11:11 am

jamjamjam · Post by **jamjamjam** » Mon Nov 15, 2004 6:28 am

update: ok, i used this "PAL-to-NTSC_Full-MP_RPP-Kit" during the setup it said somthing about not having enough room or somthing so i moved the default.xbe from the xbox to one of the folders manually and then it seemed to work but then i go to install the map pack and it tells me the defailt.xbe is not from the ntsc version but when i play the game its in black and white so it must have converted??? im very confused help pleease
