Well, i've just made the silent cartographer multiplayer work on pal - and i have been looking in the ntsc forum for others that might work....
and im kind of a noob so i thougt maybe one of you guys could find some cool single-player conversions or just something that works - cause the xbox pal forum doesn't really have i big selection!!!
Can some of you try and find some?

There is no need to actually convert anymore levels to pal. The ppf for the library multiplayer that xbox war3z made just changes the build number of the map. So all you have to do is download that ppf:

Just apply the patch to those levels

just download any halo ntsc multiplayer conversion, and patch it with the libraypal.ppf. It then should work, if you transfer it to your cache drive on your xbox and load the halo pal xbe. Try again, if it doesn't, i'll make a ppf for you.
(Each mp map uses a certain levels cache, so you will have to select wizard or derelict or something to open it.)

i've made all the other maps work now... (noobs - just do the conversion to ntsc, and then download a map and compress it and then put it in the maps folder! then you can play ANY MAP YOU WANT! almost...)
but the coolest mod ever doesn't work! it wont compress...
can you do something?? make a ppf, upload some shit, make a tut on getting halo mp etc...

ok... try this.
Download a hex editor if you don't already have one. Open up the halomp.map in it. (I use hex workshop.) If you don't have a good understanding of hex, read the tutorial on halomaps.com. At the top of the text, (offset 0x40) there will be the word wizard, and some numbers. Change the numbers 01.10.12.2276 to 01.01.14.2342.
To compress the map, if it isn't working for you in sparkedit, download hht 4. It compressed fine for me in that, and opened in sparkedit (not tested in game.)
Hope it works, Have fun!
