that didnt work :( i tryed it tons of times, i just cant get it. now i remember what its like being a noob at something. ill see if i can make it more clear by telling you the derectory i have the .jms in" C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\tags\levels\the_under_world\models" thats the folder its in then the name is the_under_world. if this helps too i navagate to the halo custom edition folder and get the tool to work, then it looks like C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition> then heres where i type.

No. Do not put your map in the Tags Folder. Put it in the Data folder. Then type what I said. Tags folder is where all the compiled tags go. The data folder is where all your JMS's go.
