I have no clue what you're asking BiggJake, but I'm guessing it's about the update for your dashboard.
If you are using MechAssault, simply click on the live part of options, multiplayer, i.e wherever it's located. From what Jon's said, it will automatically update your dash.

I think your tutorial is absolutely the best softmodding tutorial I've ever seen.
The only question I have is, what's the procedure for getting your XBOX back if you jack up the bios? You mentioned the backup, but if someone screws it up, what good is the backup? Aren't you just left with a pretty black and green paperweight that lights up a bit when you leave it on?

Are you using the Ldots itools? It sounds to me like you are using the Morden's Audio Hack tutorial, since it is preformed with 007.
If you are in fact using Morden's Audio Hack, grab a copy of MechAssault, and install the XBL updates. If you've played games with higher dash updates, (Halo 2 surely) then I cannot help you. I am clueless on how to downgrade :(

I successfully installed this mod. I put in a PAL verison of juiced and it still did not work. I am using everything that the tutorial recommanded. Do I still need to use NTSC games. The media I tried to sony DVD+r and then I used staples dvd-r. I have never had a probelm with either media. (knock on wood) any suggestions as why this is happening.

@tgarrido - there shouldn't be any reason that your bios should get messed up. The installer installs the proper most up to date bios for you anyway so i don't know what you'd want to change...
@prodigy42 - with a softmod, you will be able to play PAL or NTSC games, it doesn't matter. You most likely burned the game incorrectly, which is why the game won't boot. Try looking up a tutorial on how to burn Xbox games properly, I would post one, but i'm sure there are already some in the Xbox forums here on Afterdawn...

Once I put the game in the xbox will it boot up like a regualer. When I burn the dvd at 1x it jumps to 2.4x is their I can fix it.

prodigy42 - Xbox drives and DVD media are two subjects that NEVER go hand in hand...you have to do A LOT of research to find out which drives (Thomson, Phillips, Samsung) support what brand and format of DVDs (TDK? Ritek? Sony? / + or -?) so it's not an exact science...

Okay, nevermind. I figured it out. So now I have the different files from xbins. One is called ITools MA 1.7.5 and ITools MA 1.8.5 and Itools 007 and another is called Itool_dashes. So, my question is...which one is the Splinter Cell one and why are there two versions of MA? Feel free to smite me if this has already been posted.

Thank you for not being a completely and utter n00bler idiot, MrWoot.
There should be a file that is named "ltools_v1.7.5_SC_NTSC". That is the one for Splinter Cell. If you have trouble getting it, PM for details.

Sorry BiggJake, I don't use XBL. I wouldn't, and shouldn't. I'm much happier hooking my friend up with Xlink Kai :)
If you want to talk to me, IM me on Yahoo!: master_slith , on AIM: SDNSProductions , or e-mail me at sdnsproductions@zoomshare.com

@Slith - Thanks for your assistance on this thread...it's becoming quite a burden to answer all these questions (most of them being questions i've already answered numerous times) and it's good to see someone who's not completely unaware or doesn't know anything about what they're trying to do before doing it!

i dont know if this is usesul to anyone but i didnt know where to post it. most softmods can only be used on new maps and i know a way to always load them. you slide something like someplaying cards into the disc tray and it wont be able to read the disc so it loads the maps that are saved on the xbox. my cousin taught me this because we dont mod but a friend of his does he loads for the kid.

@ Jon
No problem Jon. You've written an excellent tutorial, and opened up the world of XBOX modding to me. I'll help any way I can.
@ natae117 and akumabito
This is not the thread to ask for halo 2 hacks or tools. Natae117, if you are really into hex editing, then google it or go to xbox-scene.

If you followed my tutorial, I can honestly say that it will either be in your documents or in a folder of your selection.
Otherwise, search for it.

@Biggjake - Man i don't know what to tell you dude. First off, you're not giving me an EXACT error message, so I don't know exactly what the problem is. Secondly, if you rented MechAssault, why didn't you just go ahead and mod the Xbox with that instead of Splinter Cell?
