How to Download & Program a Script from the GPC Library
Scripts downloaded from the library are written and maintained by members of the community. Each will have it's own instructions and methods of operation. All are different so we recommend you read any notes and instructions which are usually in the header of the script. If you need further help you can click on the Authors name and contact them directly through the Cronus Community.

How to Download & Program a Zen GamePack
GamePacks are pre-configured MODS written by expert gamers in the Cronus Community and also from the development team at Collective Minds which are marked as [PRO]. All Zen GamePacks include an easy-to-use setup interface both in Zen Studio and on the OLED screen of your Cronus Zen.
Tip: It is highly recommended that you first try the FPS Master Zen GamePack as this is quite easy to set up as the defaults are all pretty strong with most FPS Games and it gives you every major MOD available in one pack - it's a great starter for anyone new to how GamePacks work.
Once FPS Master is programmed, select the correct memory slot by pressing the P1 button on your Zen (Memory Slot 1 in the example below) and then press the LT/L2 + MENU/OPTIONS buttons on your controller to enter the OLED Menu System.
