I have a CE converted map of Zanzibar to Halo PC. I would like to change the name of the map so it will come up in Halo's Server Browser. I converted the Halo CE name to putput.map ( ChironTL34 ). I used a hex editor trying to find ChironTL34 in the putput.map and can could not find it. Does anybody know where I can change the name ChironTL34 to Zanzibar?
Thanks in advance

Re: Changing Name Of Map
There are two places you'd want to change the name. One is in the ui.map. The other is in the map itself. To edit the name that displays while you're loading you'll want to edit one of the USTR tags in the map itself. I'm fairly certain the names displayed in the browser can be modified with a USTR tag in the ui.map somewhere. Browse around in there and you should be able to find it.

How do you edit the name USTR Tags? Also I used my hex editor and did not see the map name Chiron in the ui.map
Thanks

Re: Changing Name Of Map
You use Eschaton, and select the tags. You can then edit whatever the message is.

The names are encoded using UTF-16 which unlike UTF-8 and ASCII won't show up with a simple text search. Characters would look like "W"+null+"O"+null+"R"+null+"D"+null.
