Simple guide to starting with MaxTTM

Here's a noob guide to starting with MaxTTM:

Download MaxTTM from post 3 of this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3464889&postcount=3

Check your version of TF3D by going to the 'Settings' tab and looking at the bottom entry in the list.

Download the components you want to use from the MaxTTM thread, a handy list is kept here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3464894&postcount=4

Put the components on your phone in the 'Components' folder under 'MaxTTM' folder, making sure they look like this: 'My Device/MaxTTM/Components/*component name*/*component style(s)*' where the component name is comething like Analog Clock background or Flip digit, and the component style is something like Transparent or Blue. Most of the zip files you download will already have this directory structure. Make sure you don't put the components in 'Windows/MaxTTM' as this is only used for taskbars...

Run MaxTTM and press the big Enter button.

You should see a screen like screenshot 1 below.

Tap the drop down list to see the components you just put on your phone (screenshot 2). Select a component and it will show you the different styles you have on your phone (screenshot 3).

Select a style from the list and press Deploy. You will receive a message telling you to refresh TF3D (screenshot 4).

Tap OK on the message and tap the TRefresh button in the bottom left.

Exit MaxTTM and wait for TF3D to reload.

Your edits should now appear :) (screenshot 5 ;) ).

**More advanced stuff**

You can deploy multiple components at once (for example some tab icons and a flip background), just select them all from the list before hitting Deploy.

MaxTTM has a preview function, just double tap an item from the list to get an idea of how it will look. Not every file has a preview image though, so be prepared to experiment.

You can add components installed from cab files or found elsewhere, instructions can be found in Maxycy's guides.

Maxycy has made several different types of layout. An explanation of these can be found in his guides, but bare in mind that certain layouts have certain dependencies. For example a sprint layout really needs a sprint clock deployed too :)

**Troubleshooting**

Make sure you use the right components for your TF3D version. For example a layout for TF3D 2.1 will not work on TF3D 2.5, 2.0, 1.3 or any other number. If you spot a file numbered for use on your version of TF3D you can bet other versions won't work (for example the 2.1 top curtain is a different shape and size to previous versions).

Some ROMs (particularly newer releases) do not support CFC compression, many of the components here will have been compressed. If this happens you will see a white box where your component should be. Either use a different component, uncompress the file yourself or search for an uncompressed version.

If you are missing a particular part of your theme search the thread. The prime example of this is the AClock minute hand - so many people have asked for this (including myself!) that it's getting silly. (For clarification the analog clock uses a seperate minute hand component which must be deployed along with the AClock Hand and AClock Body. Aclock minute hand is in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3902062&postcount=670).

I'll edit this post as and when it needs updating... Hopefully it'll make it quick and easy for people to get started with the app though.
