Alrighty. I believe all you need to do is make all the folders and such like Halo 2 has on the disc and put the correct file in the correct place: Like put the bink videos in the right place, but the map in the right place, ect. Since it is the map pack I would imagine you should put all the maps in the maps folder. Then, go to Xbox-Scene and find an app that can make an XISO. Then, make an XISO file out of you Halo 2 folder with all the halo 2 stuff in it. An XISO is like an ISO for you Xbox. Then, just use a program like nero and burn it to a DVD and it should work. If the XISO is too big to burn to a DVD, take out the single player maps and try. I hope that helps and I hope I said everything right.

Yes, for multiplayer you must have the shared map and main menu or it wont work.

I know. Winrar thinks it is a compressed file, but it isnt. Get a program that burns DVDs like Nero and burn the file to a DVD.

theres ur problem man. ok go to ur start menu and go to nero. then open nero burning rom. then close the pop-up that comes. then go to file>open>and choose the image that i hope u made. then check off finalize after burning. make sure it is set to burn disc-at-once. and try to burn at a slower speed, maybe about 4x. yaaay :wink:
