How To Use The Editor
A Xbox 360 All-Pro Football 2K8 roster file is required to use the editor.
For detailed instructions on getting your roster file from the Xbox 360 to your PC, read the opening sections of Operation Sports' Editing All-Pro Football 2K8 For Dummies.
For the short version:
1. Download Modio and USBXTAFGUI to your PC.
2. Format your minimum 1 GB USB thumb drive for Xbox 360 use.
3. Copy your All-Pro Football 2K8 roster from the Xbox 360 hard drive to your USB device.
4. Plug your USB device into your PC and open USBXTAFGUI.
5. Locate the All-Pro Football 2K8 .ROS file and extract it to your PC's desktop.
6.Open the .ROS file in the All-Pro Football 2K8 PC editor.
Saving Your Work in the Editor
You will notice that any time you hit "Save" in the editor, a message pops up saying, "File still needs to be resigned in order to work in-game."
To resign your edited All-Pro Football 2K8 file, open Modio on your PC.
Click the "M" in the upper-left corner of the screen, then choose "Open the Resigner."
Hit "Load File" and boot up your All-Pro Football 2K8 roster file. Click "Rehash and Resign," and you are done with Modio.
Make sure to repeat this process any time you make changes to your All-Pro Football 2K8 roster file.
Loading Edited Files Onto Your USB Device
For the final step, open USBXTAFGUI on your PC.
Open your USB drive, locate your old All-Pro Football 2K8 roster file and delete it.
Right-click on the empty space where your old roster file was previously, choose "Inject" and load your new roster file.
Close USBXTAFGUI, remove your USB device from your PC, and you are now ready to go play some All-Pro Football 2K8.
