1. You must put the bitmap file into
Halo Custom Edition>Data>Levels>Yourmap>Bitmaps

and you must save it as a .tif file. for the tool part, make sure that it is directed to your Halo CE folder, and type in
tool bitmaps levels\yourmap\bitmaps

Then you can open the bitmap or whatnot in Guerilla.

I hope this helps.

That wasnt too hard, was it MaestroMan?

Ok, most of it looks like you are missing some files. Copy and paste ALL of your map stuff, except your scenario file, as it seems that is the problem.
Make a backup folder of your stuff (NOT IN HALO CE FOLDER) put it like a desktop folder or something. Then, uninstall your Halo CE, and Install it again. This should make it so all of your files are back on your computer, and tool can put them into the map.

I havent gotten to the Sapien part yet, because i keep getting tool errors, also, check your PM's.
