UltraMagnus:

Well it's been months of work put into these two interfaces. This is a unbelievable set of maps separated by modded maps and new maps. As you have probably already seen, NMP is the new map project for maps that are new in most all regard. However this time NMP has gotten together with team CXE to bring you Custom Xbox tradition a game focused on "the best of the best of modded xbox maps (e.g. bloodgulch, damnation, sidewinder)

There is something particular special about this release though, not only is it the first joint release of pretty much anything modding related, but it has a very special program accompanying NMP/CXE called HMPi.

No longer will it take the inexperienced people hours to install interfaces. With an FTP connection and fresh copy of halo, anyone can quickly and easily install both NMP and CXE at the same time automatically!!!! If you were ever scared to get into the halo modding scene. Now's your chance to easily get some of the greatest mod on your xbox with a few buttons.

Both CXE and NMP are fully compatible with both xbox connect and xlink Kai. So you can enjoy playing maps without having to worry about version numbers of each map.

So lets get started. We have spent the last 16 hours trying to finish this project to bring this wonderful program to you during the weekend. We do hope you enjoy it and Happy Halo!!

They have a bittorrent link in the thread but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it here.

edit: eh, can't direct link to the thread.. you gotta visit their forums.

actually, nothing illegal is in their package

it's a windows based installer and PPF patches for the original ntsc halo game files...

it downloads and patches your original halo map files and then installs them back all via ftp...

pretty smart idea

These are the pics that they had in the thread. NMP 2 and CXE both have different sets of maps of their own.
