i have looked absolutely everywhere i could find and not found how to extract bitmaps from ce maps. i have hex edited them so i could open them in hht and hmt, but bitmap and sound extraction fails. could someone please show me how? thanks.

Simply put it, you don't. CE was designed with copy protection. There are methods and ways, but they quiet complicated.

if anyone knows any way AT ALL, i am up for it. i also have the same problem with the standard halo pc maps - any solutions?

I recommend you don't, most people don't enjoy people extracting bitmaps out of their maps. If it's for an original map, just do it in PC using HMT.
