Question about modding

I have a problem:

I've been trying to mod with Sparkedit the past few days, but I realized today when I decided to try them, I get a "Gathering Exception Data" error and I have to close halo. One thing I noticed was the file size gets bigger. Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

Thanks,
Sackman

What!? How could you use CE with SE? It's not possible even with converting.

Sure it is, most of the time it doesnt work but some times it does, but it is pointless to use it when you could use sapian. :/

Anyway tell us exactly what you are doing/hoping to accomplish.

I am using Halo PC. All I'm doing is adding vehicles. Like in Gepyrohphobia, I built a teleporter to the bottom of the map (I've seen this done before, and it worked) with about five warthogs and 5 ghosts. And also at the top of the map. It gives me an exception every time, probably cuz the map size is bigger than the original. I'm just trying to add vehicles to places. Like adding vehicles to the top of Sidewinder, to save the pain of having to get them up there everytime a game ends, or I have to shut my server off.

According to RaVNzCRoFT:
Double-posting and bumping do not matter in this forum.

Maybe it is because you are placing them outside of the map?

But that shouldnt have anything to do with it, because I've seen it done on HaloPC. And if that was that case in Sidewinder, then wouldnt PFR-ing a vehicle to the top of the map cause an exception?

if it gains size, its not sparkedit....
restart ur sparkedit mod on an original of the map your editing
