error 112 means you dont have enough room on your harddrive

do you have the right IP address? the network cable plugged in? your xbox turned on? are you transfering to the right folder(hint: make a games folder)?

 

i got unleahx, and thanx, where can i get an xtra hard drive, will 1 out of another xbox work, an i don't know where to get it installed, and i don't know wut the stuff to put into my xbox would be, i got some FTP instructions off of here, but the computer is connected (w/ an FTP program called ftpfree), and my xbox won't bridge it or w/e

 

or could i buy a like 80gb hard drive from the store and put it in there

 

or even a 300gb hard drive, as long as it wuz an internal 1, and if i had a xbox controller port usb converter could i get an external hard drive to use w/ my xbox?

 

Do you just want to back up Halo 2 or do you want to back up other games too? I would suggest getting the 300gig but it depends on how many games/movies etc you will be copying. When you get the hard drive, just use xbox hard drive maker to make the hard drive compatible with your xbox. Also, do you go on xbox live on the xbox you currently use?

 

Sorry corex.. Just saw you struggling in the wilderness..

You need to get the FTP working asap, because no offence, your pc skills aren't up to making a bigger drive for a softmod box just yet.

I can't believe nobody has put you on to this..

If you can't get hold of flashfxp theres plenty of choice..WS_FTP pro or even CuteFTP work a treat too.

Then when you get it connected you will need a few more things.. CloneXB being the best XISO maker for burning on a disk, by far the easiest, though as you are game modding Qwix might be a better choice.
When you can succesfully ftp from the box..make an xiso burn it and play it in the box you need to go here

And get the software that's linked to.

If you get really stuck leave a shout in my shoutbox and I'll help you out if I can. Just don't ask me anything about dothalo.
I can't believe you have been messed about for 2 months with such a simple thing, it's really not on.

 

k, thanx

 

i have the FTP working, and all of the halo 2 maps r on my computer, but the 1's i downloaded r in PPF and SPPF, and the 1's in .map format r on my box, and i can't access them in halo 2, y is this, and i modded containment, but i put it back on my box, and it said failed to load the map, so i deleted them all and then re-downloaded them, wut's up w/ that

 

Hmm..sorry don't know. Don't do map modding. Never tried and probably never will. Just don't have the time.
Thinking aloud for a moment in general terms..
Are the files zipped up, or are they in the right format. Maybe you need to patch existing maps with them because .ppf format says to me it's a patch file.
Can't really be any more help than that..not my area of expertise.

 

know anyone else that it would be their area of expertise

 

Apart from the people in this thread...No..This is the only time I've ever ventured into the game modding world.
I just came to get the ftp sorted out...

 

oh... too bad
