Right. Everyone has been begging me to a make them a Custom Coldboot, but i dont have the time to. So ive created a tutorial on how to make one.

This will allow you to experiment on Coldboots, open up shops or whatever.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:
This is not the easiest and quickest way to do it. The program i used came out ages ago and its worked for me ever since. There probably are better programs for this but they've had errors not compiling etc.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
