"can't find toolbeta.map" or whatever it says doesn't affect your map at all. It's not an error, this happens to EVERYONE.

What are u doing? it shows u the list of ommands u can use with tool.
Copy and paste ur command propmt into ur halo CE dirctory, then open it up and type in:
tool [herecommand] [here directory of file]

e.g. tool bitmaps levels\[urmap]\bitmaps
or
tool build-cache-file levels\[urmap]\[urmap]
or
tool .....Wh473v3r BLablabla
Got it? Fine. Hope that helped.
