The '''Halo Editing Kit''', also known as | The '''Halo Editing Kit''', also known as '''HEK''', was released by [[Gearbox Software]] along with the [[Halo Custom Edition]]. It includes basic tags for bitmaps, [[vehicles]], [[weapons]], bipeds, and other necessary elements of a Halo map. The kit comes with three programs which assisted in mapping. | ||
* The first program is ''Tool''. Tool is both the backbone and the pain of CE. Although it works to do everything from bitmap creation to the final map-building, its old-style command prompt methods have driven at least a few mappers insane. | * The first program is ''Tool''.
