The mod menu

The four controls

Keep L2 held the entire time. The moment you release it, the menu stops reading the D-pad and your D-pad goes back to being your D-pad. The menu itself draws on the Zen's OLED, not the TV.

Changes save automatically to persistent variables on the Zen. There is no save button and nothing is lost when you power down.

Holding Cross to fine-tune

On a page with a millisecond value, tapping Up or Down on its own just flips the mod On and Off. To move the number you hold Cross (A on Xbox) and tap Up or Down. Auto-green pages move in 5 ms steps; Button Rhythm moves in 1 ms steps.

The pages that have a value: Button Rhythm, Auto-Green, Left Fade, Right Fade, Catch Shoot, Step Back, Quick Stop.

What the numbers mean and which way to move them is on What the ms values mean.

Reading the OLED

• The page name is at the top. The counter n / 25 is bottom-right.
• With a script loaded the OLED shows the script name. If it shows the Gearhead logo, nothing is loaded.
• yew2K shows its own logo for a 1500 ms lockout at boot. The menu will not open during that second and a half.

Kill switch

Use it when you want the raw controller for a possession without unplugging anything. Menu values persist on the Zen, so turning the script back on does not mean re-tuning.

Before the menu: loading the script

The menu only exists once the compiled script is running on the Zen. The loop, in Zen Studio:

1. Open Zen Studio (Zen Studio Live in Chrome is the current version) and go to the Compiler tab.
2. Drag in your .gpc from the yew.gg Generator and press Compile.
3. Drag the compiled script into one of the 8 memory slots.
4. Press Play (the flash icon) to write it to the Zen.
5. Disconnect from the PC. Connect the rear CONSOLE port to the console and the controller to the front A1 port.
6. Pick the slot with the button on the Zen. The OLED shows the script name.

Firmware and Zen Studio versions referenced by this wiki: firmware 2.3.2, Zen Studio Live 1.0.8. Zen Studio Legacy 1.7.0 b7 works for firmware 2.2.14 and earlier. The web firmware updater is firmware.modcentral.ca (Chrome or Edge).

Page order
