there are quite a few of these available for custom edition, I have yet to find one for halo 2. there are plenty of maps out there, yet everyone only plays the same maps over and over in the playlists, can somebody fix this? the playlists would be more lively if we werent restricted to the base game maps, that and I've already seen quite a few threads on here where modders are wanting new ideas for mods, a map downloader that allows one player to download the map that the playlist has currently loaded, would allow us to play these newer maps made by the community.

If u are using the latest Update
Then Custom Map downloading has been Enabled and working fine
Just the host needs to port forward 1009 TCP
and make sure in the xlive.ini

map_downloading_enable = 1

oh cool, I was unaware of this, I wont be hosting anytime soon then, as my service charges extra for port forwarding(as far as I have been informed by them). odd that it would need that, I wonder if the one in CE did to...
Does the updater automatically change "map_downloading" itself, or have the programmers felt there was no need?
