Download the program HEK+
When you do, load it up, and open bloodgulch.map
Navigate here:
levels>test>bloodgulch
And click bloodgulch.scenario
Drag this to Tag Extraction Queue
Check the empty check box next to the tag (now in that window) and uncheck Save Extracted Tag List
Might have to repeat this for other tags such as weapons and vehicles

When done editing your map, yes you need to use tool. First, create a command prompt in the Custom Edition root directory
Start>Programs>Accessories>Copy and paste Command Prompt into your folder (I think, don't remember where the actual directory for command prompt is)
Open the command prompt and type
tool build-cache-file *level directory here and name of .scenario*
Example
tool build-cache-file levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch

-open a cmd prompt
-type in "cd C:\program files\microsoft games\halo custom edition" (without the quotes)
-then type "tool.exe build-cache-file levels\test\(name of map)\(name of map)" (minus quotes)
and it will build your map

Did you edit globals.globals and change existing vehicles for the new ones AND set teh vehicles for aloud to spawn in all game types?
if you want all 6 default vehicles AND your extra ones, you'll need scripts
object_create_anew <object-name-here>
you add weapons as item_collections in netgame equipment
