Enabling auto-update/playing new maps with Screencap Trainer

Halo 2:
I'm using the v1.3 Halo Screencap Package trainer to create pictures, and when the trainer is used it automatically disables the auto-update, and makes me incapable of playing new maps. How do I make it so that I can play new maps with it on or play new maps after I've turned it off :?:

Add the DLC maps to your mainmenu.

Will I be able to load them the maps the same way that non-modders load the new maps?

No, but why would that matter?

I play on XBC and host race track games on Containment, and if I'm loading Containment from a different location than the non-modders then they won't be able to load the map, so I think I will just have to add the AU back in everytime I'm done taking pictures. Will this work?

just leave everything like it is.
the autoupdate is disabled, but when someone hosts, and loads a new map, all players get a message like hey, look for this map in your tdata folder.

i never have the autoupdate enabled, and i can still join games that use the new maps (and play them)

as long as you are not hosting, everythings fine

if you create a game with screencap trainer enabled, you are able to load your new maps, but only if you give the lead to someone who can select them. let them select a new map, and then start it up and it'll load your map.
i've joined with the trainer enabled in a mimesis game once so ya it'll load.

Alright thanks, I'll do that, and I'll see if their is any way that I can get host in the game after that by the host quitting or something, because I still want to use my racetrack mods on XBC.
