So with the ability to play the full H1 Campaign (Haven't tested it out yet), does this mean we might be able to mod the stock Campaign levels or even port Custom Edition SP levels to MD? I have this gut feeling it won't be possible but I just want to know.

You can already do this (has always been possible) but we do not yet have official support for campaign mods like we do with multiplayer, so you will have to swap single player map files in your Mods folder (until/if we come with better support in the future). Pearl should be able to help converting custom edition maps to full version (which is MD compatible).

So if I was able download a Custom Edition SP level from a windows PC, transfer (Can't think of the right word) the .map file onto my Mac, convert it through Pearl, would it be playable? (Sorry if any of this sounds stupid, I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to this stuff DX)

Sure. Hopefully the conversion wouldn't bring up any issues however.

I've tried to get a10 (The Pillar of Autumn level) into MD (My brother has Halo PC on his Laptop), however when I put the .map file into the mod folder I was unable to select it. Do I need to open the console or something?

Nevermind got a10 working, tried porting a Custom SP level called "The Last Capital Ship". Didn't turn out so well.

Hi I cant seem to get my Mods/Maps folder to appear when I go to Mods->Reveal Mods at the top. Tried redownloading Halo MD a bunch of times but I have yet to figure out why this is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Nevermind, I downloaded AppZapper, uninstalled everything related to Halo MD, reinstalled Halo MD again and everything works fine. Had to move some mods out of the Application Support folder and its subfolders but other than that it was easy to figure out.

I accidentally set MD to run in a separate window and selected the "Don't show again" option, basically I just want MD to run fullscreen but I can't find any option to do so. I even tried uninstalling and installing again but nothings come up.

Hold command when hitting 'Start' or 'Join' and the window should show up again

Sorry for the late response but I got it working, thanks. Right now however, the level B30 (Silent Cartographer) crashes whenever I try and start it through dev commands (When I got the other SP levels working, I played them out of order so B30 was technically a "locked" level), even playing through A50 to the end still ends up crashing the game. Do I need to replace the map file or something?

haz: can you paste a description of the exact error, verbatim, or (better yet) a screenshot?

austin: what dev commands are you using to load b30?
