Modded maps not loading

Themandyou · Post by **Themandyou** » Mon Jun 16, 2008 4:21 pm

I went ahead and took Miami and nightwinder 2 serenity patches, applied them and checked that mainmenu box, with the all the files I was using in the same place, and then resigned them all, just to make sure. I FTPed them with the names "mainmenu.map" "nightwinder2.map" and "miami.map". They showed up on my mainmenu, but when I load them to play, it goes to a black screen and then I'm returned to the game options and map choosing menu. What went wrong?

I bet your running the 1.1 update.

Yeah, ish. I though I disabled it by renaming some files. Can you tell me exactly which though so I can see if I did it right or not?

Use Yelo and disable the auto-update.

I had problems with Xored and yelo. But if I get it to work, I'll do that.

Will I have to always use yelo to play modded maps off the mainmenu then?

No, goto the E/TDATA/4d530064/ dirrectory of your xbox and rename the $c and $u folders to disable the update.

Rename $c and $u to what?

Anything.

$c1 and $u1 is a suggestion, so that you can keep the original names if necessary.

That is what happens when you disable your auto-update. To fix this, add them to your mainmenu.map.

Sorry, Im confused so I should download this main menu patch to allow the H2 multiplayer map packs to work without the autoupdate?

While we're at it, I just disabled the path, and added all of the DLC maps to the Main menu via MMM. Saved, resigned, and haven't had time to FTP. I'm going to put all the DLC maps in the "maps" folder with the original maps. Will it work is the question.
