just wondering if any 1 could help with getting it to work in-game again. it logs on and i can talk to ppl ect but once i open up halo it doesnt seem to detect that im playing it or something as i cant do in game chat or screen shots.
i've tried un-install, re-install technique but it didnt work. any ides ??
oh and ive checked the xfire website but i couldnt find a solution also, all patches have been installed ect.... |

open your xfire.
tools>options>games>halo.
look for the box that says either "Automatically detect" or "manually detect"
if it says automatic look at the box below it that says "Game path"
the game path should look like this "c:program filesmicrosoft gamesHalohalo.exe"
if not, change the box to "manually detect" and change the game path to
c:program filesmicrosoft gamesHalohalo.exe
if this isn't the exact spot your halo is saved to then do this
1:right click halo
2:select properties
3:go to shortcut tab (if not there already)
4:look at the box labeled "target"
5:copy everything in the parentheses
6: paste in the xfire>tools>options>games>game path box
7: hit apply
8: reset computer (probably not necessary but i would do it anyways)
Once you reset your computer your xfire ingame should work with halo.
Edit: disabled smilies.
