Hello all,
After reading forum member Ca$h's tutorial of softmodding an xbox via the Action Replay method, when I tried it out, I have discovered that my Action Replay 8MB Memory Card will not allow the MechAssault gamesave to be copied onto this memory card as it is too big a filesize to fit on the memory card. Has anyone out there any idea of how to resolve this problem.

This is my plan of how to get the mechassault file onto the XBOX, i had the same problem u did. I'm gonna purchase a USB adapter cable for xbox. It goes directly from your controller port into your USB port. Look it up on google, its pretty tight. Oh! and just an add-in to Ca$h's thing, well, once you softmod, the 8mb memory crad wont support mods and level skins!

I successfully soft modded my Xbox with Splinter Cell. The only part I got stuck on was I first used a PAL save which didn't work with my NTSC Xbox. After finding a NTSC save it worked fine. It's super quick. I never thought a Xbox could be modded in less than 10 mins. Thanks for putting it up there Ca$h.

Hey Ca$h, thanks for the help, I needed to figure out how to get rid of my dash, but u told me. Now, when i try to get on live, it says there are network gateway problems so it still wont let me on. Any ideas?

The tutarial is Great and has been very helpful. I couldn't download all the files from x bins tonight, they say try back tommorow. Is that normal?
I downloaded the folder XBOX and I think its complete, it must have contained 30 files cause its only 31 MB.'s?
Also I am concerned with backing up my eeprom. Eeprom stands for?
I imagine its the original operating system that came with the x box. How do I back it up before the softmod?
I have played with my crossover cable and couldn't access the x box from my computer, however the computer knew when I unplugged the cable from the x box. Does anyone think I've got my ethernet adapter configured wrong? Thanks and any expertise would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to disable softmod and connect to Xbox live w/o being banned? Is disabling the softmod easy?
Does softmod install onto the HD? If it does, can I just switch the HD so I could have the original Xbox HD to play Live?

CAR there is no way u can mod on xbox live without being banned so just use a 2 month free trial when you want 2 mod or mod sum1 up otherwise u will get banned from matchmaking on the account u like.
note:
6 hours of modding on matchmaking=banned from matchmaking 4 a week only (not that bad)
also i cant download dothalo. is there another way?

I've meant NO MODS at all; all I want to do is go on Xbox Live w/o mods. Who says that I'll go on Halo 2 to mod?

I thank everyone for their kind comments about my tutorial. I also apologise for my "inactivity" to this topic.
On the very bottom of the tutorial, there is a part on how to turn off the softmod. If you turn off the softmod, you will be able to sign on to live. If you do not turn off the softmod and sign into live, you will never, ever be able to sign into live again.
Here is a little backround on the halo2 AutoUpdater; aka the AU. The instant you go into matchmaking(MM) or play a custom game, the AU starts its magic. If you have a moded map(modified map) you will be permanently BANNED from MM within 6 hrs or when you turn off your xbox.
I am not BSing. If you do not believe me, try it out for yourself.
If you have anny questions about moding halo2/pc, you can go ahead and ask me, just please keep it out of this topic because softmodding and modding halo2 are two different things.

@ CA$H - I would like to thank you for answering this topic. Yes I did read the last part, but did not understand if you sign in with a modified content [not used for XBox live though]. I'm assuming that Live will not ban you unless you are playing a game that has been modified [aka modded Halo 2 maps ]. But if you have something else modified [homebrew applications like emulators], will they still ban you? This is the question I had all along but never really clarify it.
Obviously I will not log into Live with a backup copy of the game =p.

It tried convering a standard x box controller to usb last night. I read a TUT that said splice the matching wires together and you would be left with one with one yellow wire on the controller side and to leave it alone. I vaighly remember reading a TUT that said to cross certian colors. Any way When I finished with the wire nuts and plugged it in to my cpu to play emulators and pressed a bunch of buttons, I got an error reading somthing like to mush power requested to usb port XXXXXX. Its definatly not plug and play at least at this point, mabey plug and PYRO. LOL
Read up Thats my plan, I would really like to obtain some drivers to use different usb hardware on my X box console before I modify its standard controller ports to usb. Thanx.

Ok, I've been going through the site and haven't seen this complaint yet. I get the file, move the files to my Xbox, and am perfectly fine all the way up to the point where I run the Linux. My screen goes black and stays black. I thought that this maybe part of what it is supposed to do, but I've been waiting for roughly an hour and nothing has happened. Any ideas where I went wrong?
