jeez your moving right along :D

Ok so you have the mod, you have halo on the hdd, and you have an ftp running, nice. so far so good. now basically to edit a map with a MOD:

You need to get a program called PPF-O-Matic, theres downloads for it littering Google and this site lol.

On Halo, play the level you wish to apply the patch (ppf file) to, most times its blood gulch. Start a split screen game and quit out of it when you can move. Go back to your dashboard (if your using evox just hit R,L,Black and back at the same time and it in-game-resets, handy little shortcut to know.

FTP to your box and look in your Y: folder. Find the file called cache003.map, this is bloodgulch decompressed. transfer that to your computer. now open up PPF-O-Matic. click the floppy icon next to ISO: and find your cache003.map file (you MUST make it look for all files, not just CD Images). under ppf just open up that patch you downloaded. now click the Patch! button and it shouldnt take long.

FTP cache003.map back to your Y: folder, overwriting the old one. now just play bloodgulch again and it should be editted.

if you have any other questions you can catch me on AIM my sn is RidiculouslyOrange or just post in here. Hope this helps!
