### ERROR edge #6 is open (red).

### ERROR failed to build collision geometry.

Does anybody know what i could possibly have done wrong?
You made some errors in your map model. Open Hek, and go to the compilation process page, then scroll all the way down in the tutorial section. It will explain what the errors are. Open up 3ds max clikc import, and import the levels .wrl file from program files\microsoft games\halo custom edition. The errors will b colored the color the error says in tool. Like:
### ERROR edge #6 is open (red).
The red part means the error will be red in the imported .wrl file. Just find the error, open your map and do this to fix the open edge (you were lucky, these are some of the more minor, fixable errors):
Click your map model, right click, click convert to mesh, go into face selection mode. Then click the "create" button and find your open edge. Once you have found it clikc one vertex then go across to another then one last time click the last vertex. If you watched Kirk's video tutorial he used this same trick to put the tunnel into the map. Do this over and over until you have a solid edge. Careful, sometimes it creates a vertex where you can't see and you get a weird angled and looking polygon.

Well, you will have to look for the errors by sight I think. Turn bacface cull off and look for a place you booleaned or deleted a polygon, and if you see a black spot, that's probably it.

i dont believe it did make a .wrl. if it did, i dont know where it went/would be.
ALSO, when im in gmax, and im creating the "mountain" areas of the map, is it supposed to give the bottom of the skybox a dented sort of apperance, Or am i supposed to turn the bottom of the skybox back to its flat state?
ALSO (again), is there a MAXscript that will show me any messed up areas? if not, how do i figure out where these areas are manually?
