Use this installer, it's already patched to 1.10 also it will be installed to C:\Program Files(x86)\Halo Custom Edition (not in Microsoft Games folder) http://www.mediafire.com/file/88n5nv0hvtgrdqf/halocesetup_en_1.10.exe PS - I didn't create this installer but when my installation has some problems then I use it.

Edited by OrangeJuice on Sep 16, 2017 at 09:12 PM I extracted the release zip(HAC2) into the "controls" folder and I have 1.10. Maybe it's because I have windows 10 becuase on my old computer I had windows 7.

By buying the game he means you need to have a legitimate CD Key. A CD Key you get off the internet probably isn't going to work.

Actually you don't need a CD key to join the majority of online servers.
He's probably trying to join server running a map that isn't on the auto-download servers.

Buy it, or be a shame of your self pirate. use at least a valid serial code.
Johnlex3 will punish you!, send a Colombian drugs army!, and rip tags! because of you.
Halo Ce-PC price is: $ 19 and Custom edition is free but you need the og serial code. Edited by Halonimator on Sep 20, 2017 at 10:02 PM

What others said - not all maps are downloadable with hac2. If you can't download it ingame then use other sources like halomaps and haloce3.com to download it.

the reason you are unable to join games is because you are using a cd key that alot of other people used and you are sharing their bans/problems/etc. get yourself the game, and your own cd key. problem solved

Guys no one is impressed with your virtue-signalling.
The "unable to join server" message does not inherently mean that he pirated the game. And he's saying it only happens for maps that he doesn't have. This is more indicative of an issue with the auto-downloading than his ethics.

There is a permissions problem with downloading files to your user folder or game folder. Try running the game in administrator mode.
