HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Does any one have or know where i can get the original halo 2 map files. like as in the unmodded version. i know i can just download them onto my xbox but for some reason it doesnt want to do it. so can someone please help me out. thanx

Go buy the map pack disc.

to put them on my computer? im trying to put the killtrocity map pack on my xbox and i dont have the back up files. ive already got the maps on my xbox, i just need them on my computer, and that doesnt help with the original halo 2 maps

Get them from your Xbox.

i'd do that, but some of my maps are already modded, there has to be somewhere where i can just get the fresh maps.

Your original disc.

my original disk of...

halo 2? tried that...doesnt work.

Well, that's your only option. Is the disc scratched?

are you talking about my halo 2 disk?

And if you are, i have no idea how to get the maps off of the disk. I know your supposed to be able to download them onto a modded xbox, but mine wont for some reason. Im looking for a way to just get them straight on the computer so i can have them as backups.

Boot your Xbox
When it's on the dash, put the Halo 2 disc in
FTP to the Xbox
Go to D drive, then the maps folder

never done that. ill go try it out right now. thanx man.

well that works, but im having trouble ftping to it. ive got it hooked up from my laptop to the xbox through an ethernet cable right now, but im running off of a wireless router downstairs...what should i do.

If you're connecting it straight to the computer, you need to use a crossover cable.

ok, ive got my laptop connected to my xbox with a crossover cable. flash fxp connects to it, then 10 seconds later it disconects.

Try using Internet Explorer to FTP to and from your Xbox.

Here's the address I use to FTP to my Xbox using Internet Explorer --> ftp://xbox:[email protected]

The first xbox is the username that is set in the Xbox's dashboard.
The second xbox is the password that is set in the Xbox's dashboard.
The 192.168.0.3 is the IP address of the Xbox, that is set in the Xbox's dashboard.

- These setting are found in the modded dashboard, not the MS dashboard.

Also make sure that in the dashboard the IP address is set to static and not dynamic.

If you can't connect using Internet Explorer try turning off all firewalls and other software that you think may be inhibiting you from connecting to your Xbox.

You can also try going to command prompt and typing --> ping 192.168.0.3 (or whatever is IP address your Xbox) to see if your computer can contact your Xbox by sending and receiving packets.

I hope this helps! If not, you can contact me on AIM or reply here and I'll try to help you out.

it looked like it was going to work...then it changed its mind. ive got you on my aim. send me an im when you get a chance. if anyone else has any ideas im all ears.
