How do you change what the Halo 2 logo says on the main page of the main menu? I've seen it changed to websites, different words, etc. How do I change it? Do I have to edit a bitmap? Or is it a string? If it's a bitmap, how could I change that or do I have to make my own?

The Halo 2 logo is a bitmap that you can extract and edit with a program such as Photoshop. If you don't know how to skin there are plenty tutorials on this site.

well, i know how to skin, but they totally take the halo out, how?
Im planning on making another map pack to mod old maps on xbox live...so that would be cool...

i recommend no xbl mods

uhm, ok...w/e....I really don't care, i mod old maps and new maps on xbox live, i standby, i bridge, i make myself host with my only xbox 100% of the time...im good...

I know what hes talking about. I tryed changing the whole word to something different and it gives me the filled in word behind an outline of where "halo 2" used to be.

lol, i mod custom games only though xD
and i rarely standby, i think i only did once, it was boring

but were getting off topic, what bitmap is it and how do i completly erase Halo 2 logo?

dont double post. especially within one minute of yourself

To get rid of the ghost Halo you need to remove or make a new alpha map for the bitmap.

and how in the heck would i go about doing that?

I assume you can locate and extract the original logo...
so do that

And then in photoshop click image>size and write down the dimensions
Click file>new and copy those dimensions in.

When you save, move the drop-down to .dds and save as the proper format.
