Editing Map file

'''Map files''', '''.map files''' or '''map cache files''', are a file type employed within the [[Blam engine]] used by all [[first-person shooter]] ''Halo'' games. As their name suggests, they are the files which store data for [[campaign]] levels and maps for [[multiplayer]], [[Firefight]] and [[Spartan Ops]]. Due to the uncertainty of game development, map names change frequently during production and may not be finalised until relatively close to release. As such, a map's display name in the in-game user interface is often completely different to the actual .map filename inside the game directory. This information is primarily used in [[modding]].

This page intends to serve as a general overview of the .map file type; for in-depth technical information, see [https://c20.reclaimers.net/h1/map/ this page] on the c20 Reclaimers ''Halo'' modding wiki.

==Overview==
Within the Blam engine, [[tag]]s serve as individual containers storing data about a given subject. These include but are not limited to: models, textures, ai, vehicles, weapons, projectiles, scenery objects, and level data. Tags can be created and edited using the ''[[Halo Editing Kit]]'' components ''[[Guerilla (HEK)|Guerilla]]'' or ''[[Foundation (HEK)|Foundation]]''. One tag type, know as a '''scenario''' tag, stores the necessary information required to compile an actual level, such as the map model (BSP), lighting, scripts, positions of player and enemy spawns, weapons and vehicles, objectives, and so forth. Scenario tags can be edited in the ''Halo Editing Kit'' component ''[[Sapien]]'' which gives a 3D view of the scenario.

Scenarios can then be played in the ''Halo Editing Kit'' component ''[[Tag Test]]'' or compiled using the component ''[[Tool]]'' to create a map file. Compiled maps share their name with the scenario they were compiled from and contain all of the same info in a compressed format superficially similar to a .zip file or a .pak file. Map files are self contained and no longer reference any info from the ''Halo Editing Kit''. Because of this it is possible for two or more separate map files to contain different versions of the same tag or tags. This is what allows mod authors to upload new maps containing custom tags that do not overwrite any retail data. While maps do not share data directly with other maps of the same type (campaign, multiplayer, etc) they may inherit data from a shared map. Shared maps may be created for the purpose of optimizing frequently used tags such as multiplayer characters.

Below is an incomplete list of all known official map file names and their known scenario file paths. All scenarios no matter their file path compile into a ''maps'' folder.
