A softmodded xbox allows u to back up games to your hardrive and enable FTP access. Ok this is what i did to softmod my xbox. Enjoy!
Materials needed:
1. an original copy of SplinterCell, MechAssault, or AgentUnderfire, u can find these at your local used game store.
2. a xbox memory card
3. some sort of action replay device, or way to transfer gamesave to memorycard, a tutorial on how to build such a device is here> http://teammodders.com/viewtopic.php?t=89 [link dead, my apologies. google something like this> usb xbox controller; sorry :( ]
4. a xbox
Steps:
1. ok in order to softmod your xbox u need to no how to use xbins. a tutorial on how to do that is here> http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/xbins.php
2. ok now connect to xbins using flash fxp, now double click on the folder that says "xbox" (on the right hand side), now the one that says "exploits", now "packages", now "Krayzie Uxe Installer", now drag'n drop the readme file and the desiered gamesave to the half that has all of your PC files [the readme file is for you to read]
3. now using action replay, or the desired aplication, add the gamesave to your memorycard.
4. now copy the gamesave, from your memory card, to your xbox's hard drive
5. [ok this is were it might get a little bit different but from here out i used the game MA soo the rest of the guide will be for the game MA]now put the game MA in your disc tray, and turn off your xbox.
6. now turn on your xbox
7. the game MA should of started, now go to camapain and select run linux
8. now i recommend to choose english but it is up to you
9. before you do annything make sure YOU BACK UP YOUR EEPROM [if you don't, and something goes wrong then you will probally never play on that xbox again! soo trust me and do the back up]
10. now select install sofmod, and it should go to this loading screen, and trust me be patient, it takes a while
11. now it should ask u what sort of patcher do u want the choice is up to you but if you want to no which one i chose; i chose the one on the bottom
12. after that it should ask u which dashboard do u want, again the choice is up to you but i personally like evox, but it is up to u
13. now the xbox should poweroff[don't make it, it should do it automaticly]
14. now press the small button, then the big button, remmove the disk, and the big button again.
15. now your dashboard of your choice should have loaded
16. now this is were u jump up and down, dance, and yell as loud as u can, cause now, u, have....a....modded... . . .XBOX!
To turn sofmod off:
1. run linux again, off the campain menu of MA
2. choose softmod on/off and follow directions
If u can't play dvd's without that stupid remote thingy:
1. run linux off the campain menu of MA
2. chose extras
3. chose install dvdx2
there you go!!!
****I nor anybody else is responsible for what you do to your xbox, therfore if you screw up your own xbox it is your fault****
this is my first tutorial/guide/whatever you call is soo please don't say it sucks
Thanks Ca$h

haha, yeah you have progressed big time!
Well I'm not a huge softmodding guru, and I have never actually dug into it very hard, but it looks like a decent tutorial from my perspective!

Chill out man! The mods can sticky whatever the hell they want, it's not your call what-so-ever. I'm not trying to be a dick here Slith, but what the hell is your problem?

Ca$h, now you can see how the Modchipzone
people stick together.
like a pack of wolves.
we seek, hunt down and dispose of all who bash us.
That sort of thing is really uncalled for.
and the moderators here usually agree.
your opinion is just fine, some people just need to
find a better way of expressing it.

I don't do a lot of posting on this site, but I've been around the block a time or two when it comes to softmodding.
I have seen this same type of tutorial on plenty of other forums and the authors did not get bashed. Hell, I can even remember my first tutorial. I thought it sucked myself. But other people liked it, so I stuck with it. I think all that Ca$h wanted to do with this was share his experience in hopes that someone else would learn from it, and for that, I commend him. Isn't that what we're out to do, learn, and then give back to the community?
Yeah, at modchip zone, we do stick together and defend one another. As it should be. We all look for the good in things while others are looking to "seek and destroy", bashing someone for making typo's or something that may not have worked for them when they tried it. To you bashers for no good reason out there, write your first tutorial and put it up for public scrutiny and see what happens. You might like the response, then again, you might not!
Later!

I believe mIRC takes donations and Flash FXP is only a trial version, then you'd have to pay.
If I were you, I wait until you get mIRC and learn to use it before you downloaded FlashFXP. You may be able to find it on one of the Irc channels.

9. before you do annything make sure YOU BACK UP YOUR EEPROM [if you don't, and something goes wrong then you will probally never play on that xbox again! soo trust me and do the back up]
If at first you do succeed...try not to look astonished.:/

Saving it to a floppy because without your EEPROM...problems with your hard drive/xbox later, you may not be able to fix them and rename your system hopeless. Just save it to a floppy disc and you're good.

Yes, or any other FTP program would work fine (i.e. Cute FTP) it's free unlike Flash FXP.
