How do you open Halo 1 maps with Entity?

I was wondering how you open Halo 1 maps with Entity? And where are the shared, single player shared, and main menu maps located at (for halo 1)? I didn't see any names like that..

lol ahh fun.

Halo 1 doesn't use the shard maps... and instead of calling it main menu.map they call it ui.map (user interface...)

To open any halo 1 maps with any application you have to first decompress them... I've never bothered with Entity... but i'd assume it'd be the same way. To decompress the map you can just open it with Dot Halo and hit decompress map... it should then ask to save the mapfile (if my memory serves me correctly....)

or... you could just open the map from the cache file.... (load the map in your Xbox... and then take the corrisponding cache map out of your X Y or Z drive for it)
