Softmodding an Xbox Tutorial

@spartan43 - See where the "easy way out" gets you??? Not much i can do to help you here...

@heretic1 - Dude, go post that crap elsewhere....and you ain't got no damn mods for those maps anyway so stop trying to fool people...

 

OMfg im not trying to scam i just want to help people out that want to find mods!! and in return i get free trial!

 

well there is no damage to my box, how to i get to the xbins ftp site after it gives me my password and stuff? thx

 

Heeeeey guyzs, sup.

Took mé 800 dayz to get to another hotel with internet and with a less crappier keyboard.

@herectic Do not post any shit about HALO2 mods. Izts a load and even if you are getting free trial it is still wrong to use hacks and I would definitely shame anyone that uses them. It is just bullshit. And if you#re helping people get hacks, thats even worse!

I'm getting on early tomorrow, so if zou guyz need any more help, yeah.

@spartan Try my tutorial on how to get shit from xbins. Itäds stickied in the General Discussion forum of mXBOX.

Sorry for the errors in spelling, but its so easy to trip on thids keyboard.

 

When i try to do it with 007: AUF i go to load game then it comes up as a black screen, makes noises, LED stays orange, and nothing happens just stays black.

please help me im so confused!!!

 

@Jake This is normal, all zou need to do is keep waiting and it will eventually come up with the Ldots Itools screen. Otherwise, if this doesn#t work for zou, just try renting MechAssault and using that. It is so much easier.

 

hey i have a problem i used splinter cell and downloaded the linux to my xbox then i go to checkpoints and it says i need to call customer support and the xbox light flashes red to green and so on. could someone please tell me what to do? thanks

 

try usin a different memory card then action replay the xbox 1 worked for me but the AR 1 didnt

 

hey does anyone know where i can modded maps for my halo 2 such as warlock and such

 

www.r3voluti0n.com but i wouldnt try modding if u have xbox live... you'll get banned

 

do i need a 64mb mem card? in the ftp it says like all these files are like 5mb+ for ltools, i only have an 8mb memcard that came with action replay max...

 

O.K. I have downloaded ltools_MA_v1.7.5 i have it copied to my xbox hdd. i have the original mechassault and everything but when i run the "Run Linux" i get a screen with a black background and green letters that says
"Service Required.Call Customer Support."
with a 21 in the top left corner and then probably the same words just spelled in a bunch of different languages..And then the light blinks red and green.What could be causing this and what can i do to fix this?
Thanks in advance... Sorry if i am asking a question that has allready been answered.

I need some help please....first of all I have needed help for a while but I NEVER posted, I figured this whole soft modding thing out for myself instead of buggin people like jonbtrini.
OK i got all the way to the point were I get the hacks from xbins BUT my smartFTP client is acting wierd the whole time i'v got it, for example it will just timeout all of a sudden. This is while im connecting to my xbox through FTP by putting my IP in the destination and than "xbox" as login and password. But it says,....
"connecting to (MY ISP)"
"connected to (MY ISP)"
"timeout (20 s)"
"client closed the connection"
WTF!!! PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THERE DOING....IM SO CLOSE TO MODDING lol
ALSO, another wierd thing that happens, everytime i close smartFTP and try to go back into it- it has to install over and over everytime i want to go into it.

 

@psycox i was having some simaler problems with smart ftp, try cuteftp, i think its easier to use and more reliable, u might have to turn off the ftp filter tho... if u already have ltools on your pc, i think u have to transfer them into a memory card using action replay.... u cant transfer files to and from your xbox without first softmodding it



-do i need a 64mb mem card? in the ftp it says like all these files are like 5mb+ for ltools, i only have an 8mb memcard that came with action replay max...

 

if they are only 5 mb then it will fit on an 8 mb card

 

ok, well i try to drag and drop the ltools.rar files into the pc database of my ar but it says its not valid, how do i bypass this?

 

WTF!! computers are such bullshit god damn it....I got cute FTP and the same damn message appears!I clicked on URL to connect to my Xbox and in the address I put in the ISP and then it says, "Connecting" after a bit this message pops up thats says, "The server forcibaly closed the connection" "This normally results from a loss of the connnection due to timeout or server reboot"
1) Try connecting to the server again
2) Verify that the problem is not local by trying to connect to the alternate server.

Someone please help me this is annoying by the way if anyone wants my Gamertag it xXI RIPPER IXx, and other account is ULTIMATE PSYCO thanks for anyhelp. P.S. If your a halo 2 no0b please dont send me a friend request.

 

Yo LMAO the reason it couldn't connect is because I forgot to plug back in my ethernet cord!!! LMAO im a tard. Anyway Im having this other problem, i dont think im doing something right....I unzipped my files that I wanted from xbins, ie: Halo launcher, PGR2 editor from the gamehacks directory, how do I upload them to the folders on my xbox? I tried draging them from there destination were I unzipped them to the E folder (wic is were they say is a good place to store games and apps) and it transferred them but when I go in to my EvoX dashboard and go to launch menu>Games & apps there is nothing in either of the folders! what do i do, Thanks.

 

You have to drag any programs to E:\Apps

If you don't have these folders, create them on your Xbox HD:

E:\Apps
E:\Games

This will allow your programs to be recognized and shown on the menu...

@PSYCO - Sounds like YOU'RE the one doing something wrong man...TWO ftp programs didn't work, and you think it's the computer's fault???

 

Well... to answer

.rar files do not work with action replay...only ZIP archives work with AR...A WinRAR Zip Archive will work fine.. But a WinRAR Archive will not
