For the last part you don't put new maps in the TDATA folder you put them in your halo 2 folder in your E folder on your xbox HDD. Also make sure your AU is turned off.

Ok make a folder halo 2. Inside put the bink folder, the media folder, the maps folder, and the default.xbe. Inside the maps folder you need the 45 maps and the fonts folder. Then drag that to your E-games folder. Then go to E-Tdata-******64-and rename it to something else like ******64a.

Yes put them with the other maps. You have no reason to add any maps to the tdata folder unless you mod on XBL, which is bad, so just add the new maps in the folder with the old maps.
