Bare minimum files needed for H2 Multiplayer

Post by pinklink »

I POSTED THIS ON ANOTHER FORUM, BUT THAT ONE IS INCREDIBLY SLOW. PLEASE DON'T DELETE THIS.

Ok, I've already got Halo 2 on my Hard Drive, but I haven't got enough money to upgrade the Hard Drive, so for a while, I have to make do with the space I've got. However, to keep it as free as possible, what files do I absolutely positively need in order for the Halo 2 MULTIPLAYER ONLY to work?

Right now, I've got the following files on the Xbox for Halo 2, please let me know if I can delete any of them.

bink (folder)
- attract_60.bik
- attract1.bik
- credits_60.bik
- intro_60.bik
maps (folder, I'm not gonna list all of them)
media (folder)
- ArialUni.Ttf
- command line.txt
- dlcustom.rdf
- dlcustom.xpr
- dlres.rdf
- dlres.xpr
- Sound.xsb
- Wave.xwb
(no longer in media folder)
dashupdate.xbe
default.xbe
downloader.xbe
update.xbe

I'm mostly concerned about the .bik files, those all take up a lot of space, and deleting them would free up some room on the Hard Drive.
