Ok I just started to make my first map and I have been modding for a while. Any ways I made a map with the video tutorial that was posted i did every thing the way he said and the when building the map in tool (after fixing the bitmap and making the new shader environment) I dont know what to do I searched and im pritty sure no one has posted theis before. heres a link to a screen shot and it has a little detail on the error.

EDIT:
For those who cant read it, it says
###ERROR model file has wrong version number.

This was right after

building intermediate geometry...

All Halo maps have to follow the sealed world rules.Open Edges mean that you have a "hole" in your map.What you have to do is find those holes.To do that open up your map go to File>Import;FileType=.wrl and go to the HaloCE fodler and there should be a file called Yourlevel.wrl.Import it and uncheck all three boxes that come up.Press F3 and you wil see all the errors.Dlete and recreate the faces and try exporting again.

There are tricks but some are very tricky

ok i guess i found a few more. and when you say "Press F3 and you wil see all the errors" how will i see them or do i have to find them because when i hit F3 the grid turns white.

Alos i did fix some before and i counted the errors from the first time i built the map and the same were there the second time.
