Sparkedit crashes while loading bitmpa.map; NEED HELP

I know what you may be thinking, I do not have the wrong bitmaps.map directory.

But the problem is when I'm loading a map when it's done loading the mesh's. Then it starts to load the bitmaps. And for every map. The program just crashes and asks me to send an error report. It does this every time. I thought maybe it was my sparkedit. I downloaded a new one and multiple versions. Exact same thing. I know it's not the program. I tried uninstalling halo. Totally deleted the whole directory. And re-installed it. I thought I maybe messed the bitmaps.map file up while modding.

I am using sparkedit version 3.2 and im trying to use it on halo pc. Not ce.

I could just give it the wrong directory, and get an error. But it'd still load and not crash.

I know it's not neccissary to see the bitmaps. But darn, this is just annoying.

Does anyone know a solution to this problem?.
Thanx. :)

bitmap.map isn't a map. it is all the pictures and skins for halo pc. and another it is way to big for sparkedit to load. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

You know you can use sparkedit without a bitmaps.map loaded at all. It's all in white and grey but it's useable. Just set the bitmaps directory to blank.

I know, I already said it's not really neccissary. And I know its not a real map file. But I used to be able to load all the bitmaps when loading a map. And now it doesn't. :(

And no, I am not trying to load up the bitmaps.map file.

Non of you seem to have thoroughly read my post :(.
