Can't save games in SPV1? Look here.

[Mr Buckshot]

I've seen an increasing number of new CMT players who discovered CMT long after the old forums went down. A couple of them appear to be perplexed by the inability to continue a CMT level from the last checkpoint.

This is not the UI's fault - no UI will change this fact. It is the map's fault, because it doesn't seem to link properly to the UI.

Your first order of business is enabling the console. Edit the "Halo Custom Edition" shortcut on your desktop to show the target line:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console

A screenshot for the noobs:



Now, let's say you're playing the Maw. You save a checkpoint, quit CE, go eat lunch, and come back. But instead of restarting the level, press the "~" key to bring up the console, and type in map_name d40 and this will load the level from the last checkpoint.

So whenever you want to continue from where you left off, you have to type in a console command. The commands to type in:

Pillar of autumn - map_name a10
Halo - map_name a30
Truth and Reconciliation - map_name a50
Silent Cartographer - map_name b30
Assault on Control Room - map_name b40
343 Guilty Spark - map_name c10
The Library - map_name c20
Two Betrayals - map_name c40
Keyes - map_name d20
Maw - map_name d40

Remember, before you quit the CMT level, save the last checkpoint, otherwise you can't load it when you want to continue your game.

Hope this helps. Masters or jCap, you might want to update the FAQ until the SPv2 is finally released...and I'm not bugging you for a specific date, but please show something before the end of this year's summer, so that we won't go back to school all disappointed like last year...

IMPORTANT EDIT:

also u can change the difficulty of the level before you play it. by typing this in.
*must be in devmode to make the difficulty change work. so either use bitterbananas alldev mod or just type it in in the shortcut properties -devmode.

game_difficulty_set easy --------EASY
game_difficulty_set normal (<--this is the default difficulty, by the way) ------NORMAL
game_difficulty_set hard -------HEROIC
game_difficulty_set impossible -----------LEGENDARY

Then use the map_name (a10,a30,a50,b30,b40,c10,c20,c40,d20,d40)

Kudos to soccerbummer for that information.
