wow thats a first one,Do you have the PLATINUM edition? if so then it WILL NOT! work. 2)did you transfer BOTH of the sid 4.0 2 FILES? linux and game save launcher ?

 

Hi there.

So I softmodded my Xbox, all is well, accessing LIVE fine, etc. BUT, when I access my RETAIL MS dashboard, it brings me to the Xbox Live account management, and doesen't let me access Memory, Music, Settings etc. It just takes me to the dashboard immediately. Is there any way to go to the MS dash as it normally was? Cheers.

Hmm... I can access MS dash through EvoX.. thanks anwyay.

Hey Guys


I am a n00b to the softmod community. I just got my xbox modded on the weekend. I plan on upgrading my harddrive this weekend to a 160gb.....w00t. Anyway I have a quick question.

I have a copy of Splinter Cell, but it is a Greatest hits version. Will that copy work for the save game exploit? And if I were to try and access the save game with that copy, could it damage the xbox?

Any help would be great
Thanks

P.S Sorry if this was asked before

 

I don't think it will damage the Xbox, but it just won't work, it won't bring up the menu. So just don't even try to do it, and get the original.

Thanks for the quick reply

 

Do you mean Platnium? I used Spinter Cell Platnium Hits to softmod my XBOX. It worked without a problem.

I have used the same copy of SPLC to soft mod 4 of my friends xbox's as well.

 

Yeah, splinter cell plat works. I dont know if there are 2 versions of the plat like 007...but I like to just say no plats

 

Cool, thanks again


Is there any risk in attempting to use the Platnium copy?

 

No, The SPLC platinum works fine with this tut.

 

K,

I know I am going to get laughed at for this but.....

what does the LC stand for after Splinter Cell? Is it a different version? As far as I know I have the original Splinter Cell version but it is a platnium copy.


again, thanks for all the quick replies, everyone on the forum is really helpfull.

 

yea the platinum edition will NOT damage your console. you just wont see the linux on the options. as for the hd upgrde its easy as long as you do it right.

 

Just wanted to let everyone know that the Platnium edition of Splinter Cell DOES work. I tried it tonight, and it gave the option for linux. Just wanted to clear that up.


thanks again

 

Hi all, Firstly I must admit I am a noobie at softmodding my Xbox, I have the action replay and plinter cell, I followed all the instructions on here, I managed to put Softmod installed deluxe 3.1 and the SID splinter cell pal file on my memory card. I then copied them files to my Xbox hdd, and then ran splinter cell, went to start game clicked on linux and then clicked again, and now I have had a black screen on my tv for 30mins and the green power light on my Xbox, and nothing is happening, can someone please advise me ?? Thank you very very much

 

Hi all again, just a thought on my problem mentioned above, I beleive the problem is with my action replay memory card *sigh* this is the only memory card i have so the question i have is it possible to remove my xbox's hdd connect it to my pc and copy the files i require to the xbox's then refit it and try the softmod again ??

 

but if you do mod your xbox like that wont bungie just detect it and ban you from xbox live?

 

Not if you boot up original MS BIOS

Anyway, ok, now I can't even run MS dashboard through EvoX! I choose MS dashboard from scroll down options on EvoX dashboard, it comes up loading screen for a few secs, then goes back to EvoX dashboard. Any ideas / suggestions please? Thanks in advance

-Mike
