No, I think the problem is that on his menu, it lists Multiplayer 49 as a 256x256 bitmap. Odd.

Did you apply my patch to a clean mainmenu.map file?

Really? The stock PAL menu has larger images? I guess that settles that, this is NTSC only I guess.

Okay then...

Yeah this patch needs to be applied to a clean mainmenu. I'll go apply it again just to double check.

EDIT:
I just applied it to a clean mainmenu again to double check and it worked fine.

Oh yes, I understand now, the reason it said 256x256 ius because you had already injected a bitmap of that size.

I have no idea how to use dxtbmp, I'm on CS2 with the DDS plugin.

Wow. That list was compiled to provide easy access to any program you need to mod halo2. All you need to do is find Photoshop which is in the list.. I'm not going to provide a link for you when there's a perfectly good topic for you to find it yourself.
