Ok i have a new map pack and that converted all my old and new maps to new ones and then i put the originals of those maps back on so the question that i am trying to get out is how do i put the maps on the map list in may Halo 2? meaning when you load up Halo 2 then you go to chose a map that list.
hope some one has an answer.

I guess that is the blastacular pack?
it replaced old ones? I dunno why it did that, but if it is a custom map pack, it is desgined to replace certain ones, to get your originals back, you have to either rename the new ones to something random, so they are not listed, and the origianl ones to there original names again.
custom maps for Halo 2 are designed to replace another map, so you would have to get the original map by redownloading or getting it off the internet and ftp'ing back to your maps folder.

I think so...
well, actually, I have no idea :p
hopefully the more experienced modders will help,
so, you have a modded lockout, deep blue sea, you also have the original in the same folder, both maps with the same name?
and on your list, lockout is your deep blue sea mod.
I am guessing there will be a way, try googling.

It sounds like you are trying to duplicate a map and have it appear on the list twice (but with different mods). To do this you need to modify the mainmenu.map file in dothalo. This tutorial will tell you how to do it. If you need a more simple explanation just let me know!
Hope this helps!

It's ppf not pff. They are pre-made mods that you can apply to your maps.

K, I have a question for which I'm sure somebody knows the answer. (Forgive me for not finding it already, but I've been searching for an hour with no results.)
So I've downloaded Killotrocity Map Packs V1 and V2. Is there a way to combine these so that I have all of their maps selectable on the same menu? (If so, how is it done?)

Look back I couple of posts, I think it is answered.
Also, this is a simple one (I think)
Flying warthog turrets?
Yeah, I followed the tutorial on serveral websites, all the same, they say Copy the Meta offset of banshee into the guass or chaingun, so I did it with gauss, you then change the hlmt to gauss, instead of banshee.
I did so.
But, when I go on my coag map and go oveer to where the banshee spawns, yes, there is a turret there. but, I can't get in it
If I spawn one with the plasma pistol, and it's upside down, I can flip ot over. (it says flip over banshee) but still, I can't get inside it.
Anyone know the solution?
thanks

If you want to swap it, there are plenty of tutorials.
I got a 80gb Seagate one, works fine.
I used evo to unlock and lock it, DOS seems to crash for me when I try.
