CMT is back on Custom Edition

I know this is probably outdated news for some of you, but I did some digging around today and found out that CMT (Custom Mapping Team, not Country Music Television) is back working on their Halo custom edition campaign.

They’ve got some very promising videos and screens previewing their early build of v3. Is anyone else looking forward to this as much as I am? To me Halo custom edition is the best kept secret in the Halo community b/c not many fans out there bought a copy of Halo PC, and CMT is the driving force behind it. I’ve loved their work so far, but am really looking forward to finally playing the final product since CMT campaign has been a work in progress for years now.

For those of you out there who wish Halo Anniversary was updated more than just visually, then you need to check out this link. CMT SPv3 FTW![

Excellent, i got months without any news from CMT or halomaps.org in general. Thanks.

It’s new to me, pity I lost my Halo PC key ages ago =C (Why they didn’t just put it on the back of the manual is beyond me).

I lost my key as well. There are literally a ton of keys you can find out there though. Using one won’t allow you to play multiplayer, but you can play campaign just fine so CMT SPv3 is still a go in your case. You’ll just need to download custom edition to play it. Won’t work on standard Halo PC.

Thing is, whenever I try to play Custom Edition I get this odd glitch where the menu loads up but the screen is black so I can’t see anything. Even when I switched computers I had the same problem and I have absolutely no idea how to get around it.

I got the same problem once. I just installed it on my newest computer and it works fine. Likely your graphics card can’t handle the game. Did you install the v1.09 patch? That might be causing problems as well.

Yeah but still no luck. Maybe I’ll just completely uninstall everything and put it all back in again, don’t know what else to do at this point.

That would be probably be the best option you’ve got. Try installing it on your newest computer though. I’ve noticed how older computers have a little trouble running the game.

Really, how many times is that low life Masterz1337, is going to bring that team back from the dead?
I guess he really likes making other do all the work, and being an -Yoink-.

I had the same problem before. what i did was remove the entire halo ce from the program files folder
copy them elsewhere like the desktop or in a folder.

Welp, I tried both options and still I get the black screen. Thanks for the help though.

Check your GPU’s settings, it might be forcing AA on Halo PC/CE and if so, that might be the problem.

That was it, thanks a million!

NP, I was having that issue today when I reinstalled Halo PC, and I remembered that I needed to tell the GPU not to force AA.

xD i have v1.00 of ce, awesome eh? anyways, i’ve played through their v2 campaign, which i was impressed that they extended the levels, like you go through chron or w/e that one janitors closet (rvb reference :3) on PoA, v3 is going to be even better! xD

btw, can you give me your xfire? (if u have one lol) cause i want to “coughstalkcough” you… >:)

did someone say they need a key? just download a halokeygen, it generates a free key so that you can play it again
