Go into the Halo Custom Edition install folder, and look for a file called debug.txt.

Open that up, scroll all the way to the bottom of the file, and paste the last set of errors you have here.

Open the scenario and all related tags with guerilla. Scroll down 'till u find red text. That could be caused by missing files or wrong fileformats.
Anyway, the debug text could be helpful

Dude Sapien isn't evil. If you forced it to read your map anyways it would come out so bad you wouldn't even want to in the first place, it's trying to help.

Try recompiling your map and seeing what happens. It might've messed up.

make sure ur dektop is runnig on 32 bit. i think that's it. idk.

well, heres what i think;

-make sure that there are no errors in the scenario, bsp, bitmap, and shader tags.
-make sure you have a sky tag set up in your .scenario
-is there any tags that are corrupt or messed up?

-2K? thats way to small for a .scenario in my opinion, probably some errors is a debug or a debug.wrl
-if you have a .max, .gmax, .3ds file of the level, what does the level look like? *it can't be jsut a simple square, it must have more than 10 vertecies, i think, or make the ground more uneven, which needs some vertecies*
