Why you should do this:
- You will avoid the: "ZOMG get pics nubbercake!"
- It makes your post look more professional.
- You will get a 70% increase in user downloads with pictures.
- It shows users the mod actually works.
- They actually have something to look at and want.
- You will get a 90% increase in user comments.
- People will actually have something to post about.
- People who don't download the mod can still compliment you.
- You must have Halo 2 in "E:\Games"
- You must already know how to FTP
- You can be a nub, but you can't be a complete idiot
Getting the pictures:
- Step 1: Getting the Files
- Get Yelo
- Download here
- Create a new folder, then unzip the Yelo files to it
- Get Xored ETM Trainer Launcher 2.2
- Download here
- Unzip the folder
- Open the "Xored.ini" file in Notepad
- Find these line of code:
Code: Select all
# 1 trainer path only Trainers_Path = "C:\Trainers" #Trainers_Path = "C:\Trainers"- Replace it with this:
Code: Select all
# 1 trainer path only Trainers_Path = "E:\Apps\mini\Trainers" #Trainers_Path = "E:\Apps\mini\Trainers"- Save and exit
- FTP to your Xbox
- Go to E:\Apps\
- Transfer over the "mini" folder you unzipped
- Go to E:\Apps\mini\Trainers
- Transfer over all the files from the Yelo download you unzipped
- Go to E:\TDATA\4D530064\
- Transfer "config v1.5.inc" to this folder.
- FTP to your Xbox
- Go to E:\TDATA\4D530064\
- Rename the "$c" and "$u" folders to "z$c" and "z$u"
- When you want to play the new maps again rename the folders back to how you had them.
- Turn on/Reboot your Xbox
- Start Halo 2 with Yelo:
- Go to "Applications" (depending on dashboard)
- Go to "Xored Trainer Launcher"
- Go to "Halo 2"
- Go to "Yelo"
- Make sure "Developers Mode" is enabled (I wouldn't suggest having to many other options enabled at once)
- Press the "Start" button
- Load your modded map
- Use these controls to get to a good spot for a picture:
Code: Select all

You have to only have one controller plugged in for Yelo to function correctly.
- After you have found a good picture position, press the white and back button at the same time to take a picture. You can pretty much take unlimited pictures.
- Take about 20-30 good pictures. We will filter out the bad ones later.

- Download Xbox Raw Screenshot Deswizzler (By Detox, my bestest friend =)
- Copy the pictures on your xbox to your computer:

- Then go to "File"
- Go to "Save Checked As"
