ok. u know the ads that come up before the main menu on halo PC?
well i got rid of them and i replaced it with a .bik file that i converted with RAD Video Tools. I renamed it to Bungie.bik so that the game would recognize it and play it, but when the ads are supposed to come up, it get a jumbled screen and freezes. Any idea how to make it work? :lol:

im sure it isnt a biog deal for some of you hard core modders but...i admit i just started modding, and only know how to do a few things. :cry:

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

mod is an abbreviation for Modification.... Technically any change made to anything is a mod, because it is a modification.

Omg. You guys, stop. Idiots.

Anyways, you can't just rename a movie file to the .bik format. You can to a certain extent... Sure, it will have a .bik ending, but it isn't a real .bik file, and won't read properly. No one has been able to change this yet.

i didnt just add .bik to the end of the name. I used RAD video tools to "Bink" it which, suppesedly, made it a .bik format. youre probobly right, dark cloud, considering that it doesnt work.
