CMR is a encryption fixer. I belive if you are using dot halo, and you are done editing your map once you close the map dothalo autmatically fixes the encyption.

I am not sure why exactly the projectiles arent going to the right guns, Maybe you could have made a mistake when editing. Is your xbox PAL? That might be the problem, but once agian I am really nor sure.

Hmm ok The pal xbox may be the problem. Take a nice new coagulation.map or any other map then the one you are trying to mod right now and try just swapping around a few projectiles, like a smg shoots out banshee bombs, and a shotgun shoots out plasm rifle projectile. do that and tell me what happens.

So CMR is for dlc maps, right? After you've resigned them, are you adding them to your maps menu, or are you putting them in the dlc folders? 'Cuz if you're just adding them to the mainmenu you can use any old resigner; you don't need cmr.

Yeah, when i got all the DL maps (by way of a mate sending copy of the disc) i had to use CMR.exe to resign the new maps, as far as im aware it only works with the new DL maps (Containment, Warlock, Sanctuary, Turf, Backwash, Elongation, Gemini, Relic and terminal) for all the orignal maps, just use Dothalo's or a normal Encryptomatic signer.

Also, I'm not positive, but I think we might not be allowed to talk about CMR here, since it could potentially be used for XBL cheating.

Oh. Nvm then. Must've been something else that we weren't supposed to talk about. Hard to keep track. The rules here are pretty strict. Not saying it's a bad thing; hacking is always a grey area and you want to be careful not to stray into anything that would piss off Bungie.

DotHalo will resign a map when you close it. Try using that and not using cmr.

Yeah, CMR is ONLY for the download maps, nothing else, so dont use it, its unrequired for you.

ah, then you have to use CMR as the download maps dont sign encryptomaticly.

now the way i Proj swap, (try this) in dothalo go to the [weap] tag, find the weapon you want to swap's projectile (say battle rifle) then swap the Dependancy of its Proj to a diff one, close Resign with CMR and it should work. (also dont forget to delete cashe)

its not the problem, i have a Pal xbox and theres no diff between Halo 2 NTSC or PAL. so thats not causing the problem.
