Maps for [D] Big Battle

[D] Big Battle (128 players, team CTF and Slayer, some free-for-all) plays three Halo Custom Edition maps. We never host map files. This page gives each map's checksums and where to get it.

Installing

  • Chupathingy: put the .map file in the maps_ce folder. If you join without a map, the game names the one that is missing.
  • Legacy clients: put it in the custom_maps folder.

If the game says you have a different version, your file is not the same one the server has. Replace it with the one linked above and compare its MD5 with the table.

Common mistakes:

  • Using the Halo PC copy of a map where the Custom Edition one is needed. The two games' files differ, and so do their checksums.
  • Putting the file in the wrong folder, or leaving it inside a .zip.
