Well, when you are working with scenery, the only thing that should have errors is your collision geometry, (unless ur animating) but tool doesn't create a .wrl file named after your scenery files, probably because scenery are easier to make and it would clog up your hard drive with so many extra files. But it does make on each time you compile your scenery's collision model. It's called, "debug.wrl".

1.) Open up 3ds Max (3-6)

2.) Go to File, Import, and set the type to .WRL

3.) Navigate to your Halo CE root directory, and select the debug.wrl file

4.) Uncheck all boxes, including Reset Scene, and turn to coordinates nd i don't remember the other one. Just make sure that none are checked.

5.) Click ok, find error of the correct color

6.) Either weld verticies to seal open edges, or create new ones.

Hope that helps!
It always works for me.
