If you have not backed them up, choosing overwrite will overwrite them. And if you want the originals back, then you'll have to re-install them. What I do, is I rename the map to something like this - (BACKUP)turf.map
and then transfer over my new modded map, called turf.map and I just delete the turf one and take out the (backup) part in the backup and delete the modded one.

That aside.

ayy

what a baby noob

1.- I can't get gamesaves into the memory card with Action Replay?

A.- Make sure you have original Microsoft Memory card or another brand that it's known to work, not all memory cards will allow files that's aren't game related to be added, like zips, rars and non-xbox default files. Also make sure you drag and drop 2 zips, the SID4 Launcher.zip and your game of choice, and you'll add both gamesaves to your xbox, since the launcher are the files that install the softmod, and the other gamesaves are to boot to Launcher, so no launcher and gamesave can lead to ERROR 21, black screen, or MS Dash reboot.

so it needs to be zipped and 2 files are needed .. the luacher and the game of yours

Do Not Discuss Halo Modding AT ALL

Seriously folks, how long is it gonna take to get the message through to you all?

Any FTP program works. Set your IP to DHCP by turning off static and get the correct IP address and a crossover cable to connect them. And you can ONLY connect when you are at your custom dashboard.

burn aid 3 ( www.xbox-hq.com/html) and install dvd2xbox and run unlesh x ( highly recommended .. evox sucks dont install it) and choose apps and run dvd2xbox and it burns games to hard drive..

BUT you WILL have to upgrade hard drive why? cuz you can only fit 0-4 games on your retail hard drive...
and no halo 2 does NOT fit!!! on the retail hard drive..

no you do NOT need a modchip to upgrade a hard drive on a softmoded xbox.

Yes but only if the game is small enough to fit on your hard drive. Personally I just back mines up to my PC and burn it to DVD to play. But some people like to keep it on their hard drive.

Basically you have to install AID 3 to get all your options, menus, apps, skins etc. So follow Gus's links for that. Then when it is installed, run - DVD2XBOX and it's pretty simple step by step to saving the game to the xbox. After that reboot the xbox, and go to - launch games from HDD where games will run from the HD, provided they are small enough to fit.

well keeping aid 3 is a must have thats 1 , upgrading the hard drive is very good and very needed. on a softmoded xbox you use a program called xboxhdm1.9 so basicly you use it with a pc to make this a hard drive.

those hard drives that are " unlocked" and ready for modded xbox will NOT work for a softmoded xbox... insted you WILL get error code 05

a softmoded xbox need a LOCKED hard drive. as where a chipped xbox does not .

so those hard drives they told you about are for chipped xbox.

their is a UNIQUE CODE for each xbox this is called EEPROM.. with this code you will be able to lock your hard drive .

so items needed

** aid 3 **

** xboxhdm1.9**

**ftp acess from xbox to pc **

**a blank cdr to make the linux cd **
