Ok I'm sick and tired of telling people this over and over and over.

Why H2C errors and how to fix it:
  • Vista sucks; it's extremely buggy, it's incredibly fat. Just because it looks shiny doesn't mean it's good. Halo 2 modding is not meant for Vista. The only trick to getting something to work is right clicking the exe and disabling desktop composition. If it doesn't work, oh well, discussion over, I'm not talking about it any more.
  • If you have less than 500 MB of ram, use a different computer that has it.
  • If you're computer meets the things stated above, yet it still errors, try this:
    • Delete your shared, single shared, mainmenu, your SP map, and your MP map. Then redownload them or get them from your disc. Don't tell me they are clean, just do it.
    • Delete all the files in your decompiled folder.
    • Change the decompiled file directory setting in H2C.
    • Re-install .Net Framework. Don't tell me you already have it, just do it.
Some last advice...
When you click build or decompile or anything in H2C it starts it. IT IS BUSY, it's trying to do something, if you start click sh*t a million times when it's busy of course it will freeze and error. Just leave it alone, don't click it anymore after you have started it. If it looks like it freezes, keep your damn pants on and don't touch it. Just let it finish.

Seems to be freezing in the sound tags, right?

Try not checking off looping sound when you rebuild.

H2 Core is the most poorly build application in my opinion. They really should have tested it to make sure it worked fine before releasing it, but I know that a map rebuilder is incredible hard to make so I really don't blame them. At least it CAN work. They should have released the source code so people could fix it up... Did they ever release it?

i have little trouble modding on vista

Any program you have trouble with:

Either turn Aero off, or run the program with Desktop Composition disabled.

This application is so poorly coded. There is a small chance of success. There could be many reasons why it freezes.

These tools came out at the beginning of 2007. I've personally talked to the authors and none of them have the source. Meaning no fix.

There are many tools in the works. A perfect sound tool was released just yesterday. I myself am working on something. Tools are being developed. Not as many as there were in the past, though.
