This tutorial took a long *** time guys but here it is.

Making Your Own Halo 2 Intro


Before we start you are going to need a few things.

1. Intro_60.bik (can be found on your disk if needed)
2. RAD Video Tools (in antmans modding tools package)
3. A video editing program of some kind. If you don’t have one go to start/search/all files and folders and type windows movie maker and it should find it while it searches.
4. A picture.
5. A music file.

Ok now that you have everything let’s start the tutorial.

1. Open RAD Video Tools and locate and highlight intro_60.bik then click convert a file.

Click the image to open in full size.

2. Now on the next window that comes up hit convert then it will come up saying frames uncompressed just hit ok and then wait for it to finish.

Click the image to open in full size.

3. Now that you have intro_60.avi open windows movie maker and go to import video and locate your intro_60.avi then click import and wait for it to finish.

Click the image to open in full size.

4. Now take the intro_60 and drag and drop it where it says video on the lower bar.

Click the image to open in full size.

5. Now we are going to add some new sound to it so click import audio or music and locate a music file that you would like to use.

Click the image to open in full size.

6. Now do the same thing you did to the video drag and drop the song into the audio/Music tab.

Click the image to open in full size.

7. Now we are going to start fixing up the thing a bit so click on the set audio levels button and drag it all the way to audio/music then just hit the little X.

Click the image to open in full size.

8. Now if you noticed the music is a bit long for that intro so grab the end of it and shorten it until it is about equal with the intro.

Click the image to open in full size.

9. Now to add a little more of a cool effect to our intro im going to import a picture so click import pictures and locate a picture then click import.

Click the image to open in full size.

10. Now you can either drag it in front of the intro or behind it im going with in front so drag it in the video bar in front of the intro.

Click the image to open in full size.

11. Now we are going to add a transition so click view video transitions and pick one you like then drag it in between the picture and the video.

Click the image to open in full size.

12. Now we are going to add some effects to either the intro or the picture so click view video effects find one you like and drag and drop it on top of either the intro or the picture.

Click the image to open in full size.

13.The last thing you can do is add a text in the movie so click add title or credits near view transitions and then click beginning of movie. Now type the text you want and look near the bottom it says colors and animation change those as you wish. Once you are done click done add title to movie.

Click the image to open in full size.

14. Now you are ready to save your movie so go to file save movie file, my computer, save it somewhere and name it what you want. Wait until it finishes.

Click the image to open in full size.

15. Now we need to convert it back to a .bink file so open RAD video tools again and highlight the new movie file you made and then click the big bink it button. Then make sure the name says intro_60.bik if not rename it then hit bink and wait for it to finish.

Click the image to open in full size.

15. Congratualations you have a new intro now ftp the new intro_60.bik to E: /games/halo2/bink then run halo 2 off your hard drive and you are done.

yeah it can't be like a 5min long intro it has to be between a certain filesize and usually long videos go over i only wish i knew what that size was but just cut it down a bit and that should fix it.
