I actually find modding Halo 2 maps with my computer using DotHalo very easy, I can even mod the original Halo with it. I use a program on my softmodded xbox called DVD2XBOX to copy a game CD to my xbox, then I use FXP and my network to put the game on a backup HD connected to my comp, then I open the map file in DotHalo, Mod the crap out of it, save my tag changes, then I use FXP and my network again to put the modded map into my xbox inplace of the original map file.

Oh btw if you do use DVD2XBOX, and you are putting Halo2 on your xbox, you can only put the multiplayer maps on it unless you have a custom (larger) HD in your xbox.

Are you using FXP to Connect to your xbox?

If so you can't be using your static IP address.
If I remember correctly, you should be able to go into your settings on both a normal xbox (via the dashboard) and on a softmodded xbox (via system settings) and switching your static IP off, then you will be using your alternate (normal IP that Computers can see).

Once in your xbox, you should be able to access all files on your xbox (ONLY IF IT"S SOFTMODDED)

If your xbox is already softmodded with evox, then it would be much easier for me to help you out, because that is how mine is done...

Oh and BTW...no scarab driving =P...:( would be sweet tho...but we can't unfortunately...And about the skinning, I am in the process of skinning vehicles, I have a friend who is quite verse at skinning, I do know that he uses DotHalo to do it but I'm not quite sure how, his aim is Grog189 if you ever wanna ask him....but when you talk to him, just tell him that Ryan sent you...

Oogie, did you install .net to run dothalo?

Guy who wants to know about softmodding, go to xboxscene.com and look in the tuts part, they know to much about modding.

Newyzzzz...the files that get put on your xbox get put on the E:// Drive ....but yah...I can't really take you through all the specifics, cuz I didn't put the files on my xbox, I'm just pretty good with DotHalo and such...but yah do what EVIL said...just go to xboxscene...they have wayyyyy to many modding tutorials, they have people that eat, drink, bathe in and live that modding stuff...

What I do know is that when you first softmod your xbox, you have to have all the softmod files on CD to begin with, I don't know what the main executable is but I do know that it ends up being an .xbe (xbox executable file)....that is how the xbox sees it...on the CD there is usually a program that has the ability to acess your harddrive, and also has the ability to transfer files from the CD to the E:// Drive...

FXP works only when you can use the program from the CD (that should get put in your E:// Drive) can access the harddrive...

But yaaaahhh....sorry I don't know exact specifics, I wish I did...good luck though, just keep firing questions, I'll try to answer them to the best of my ability until EVIL gets back... =P

Okay Okay one at a time (hehe)...I have not figured out a way to take modded maps on live...Oh well... =(

And about DVD2XBOX...you must either install using an .xbe file or you must FTP to your computer and put it in the corresponding drive with all of your other mod programs in it...About DVD2XBOX, I would suggest the same as EvilModda see xboxscene...they have a crap load of information about modding...

Grog189, the friend I told yall about should be joining the thread soon...if all goes well...he'll be much more equipped to answer more topic specific questions...

By the way, I have ZERO modchips in my Xbox...I tried a Xenium Sp-Ice and a Spider Chip...but they were both WAAAYYYYY to finicky to be able to use them properly...A properly modded Xbox like mine is sooooo much better than any modchip you can buy...

Let's just say that I have 4 game systems in one...a web browser...media player...etc...IT OWNS!

Modchips suck...I hate em...I wasted like $100 + on them...and now I have em in a box in my room collecting dust :( ...

aight aight calm down children clam down....this is Evilmoddas bro and just one thing to say SOFTMODS SUCK......you can do way more with a modchip and with a modchip it is not hard to put in a NEW HD....so what if you have a web browesr, media player, BUT DO YOU HAVE XDK......XDK is an Xbox Development Kit......it owns you and you AND EVEN YOU!

ANYWAYZZZZZ.....
About DVD2BOX
You download it
Extract it
Put it on the xbox throught FTP
If the xbox doesnt recognize it is there try looking in the C directory and getting the Evox.ini file and editing it so It will look for Apps in the Folder you want......but it is usually set for the F directory I think

Umm yah...actually I do had xdk...lol...but yah...if you can get the chips to work...then they do own...I guess I'm just not uber enough with little pieces of plastic going in 1/256 mm holes in a motherboard...oh well, but yah if you have a working modchip, you should be able to access your harddrive and do everything that you can do with a softmod...plus more...

However, if you are somewhat poor...softmods are completely free...if you know what programs to get : D...

Newys...good luck with what ever ways you wish to mod...all I have to say is..."any mod freaking owns" ... having any mod is way better than having a clean game : P...

Yea the godd part about softmodding is that it is free.......and it is HARD AS HELL putting tiny pin-headers into those small holes and then soldering.......I did brake a couple of lines when I was soldering (aciddently)broke em but It was all good.......They said the PCB rebuild would make it easier to install the X3 but it made it harder......when my bro did it he used all these wires instead of the rebuild

Softmodding isn't all that hard.........

I did it in like 5 days and it took me that long cause my brother would't show me how to set up XBINS and so I had to find an exploit out of thin air
