Ifu have the auto update you have to take it off by going into flashFXP and going to the E\TDATA\*******64\$U and rename all of the things in that folder by adding a two at the end of it otherwise i don't know

you just have to rename the folder..not everything inside it

I know there is a tutorial for adding maps to the mainmenu.map by ketchup_bomb but i can't find it so i made my own

1. open up mainmenu.map in Dot halo
2. go to the "matg" tag and click on globals/globals
3. In the tag editor go to the multiplayer maps scroll down bar and go to 12 (or the first empty one)
4. then in the value section write any number that has not been used in previous maps for example 412
5. write the name of the map in the following 4 spaces Ex. Terminal
6. in description write a description for the map
7. For the scenario name section write scenarios\multi\mapname\mapname (EX. scenarios\multi\triplicate\triplicate
8. In the next value section write the same number you wrote in the first section
9.Save changes and then fix encryption
10. FTP to xbox

If you do all of that and it still doesn't work then i am not sure what to do.
This is what i did to put maps on my mainmenu and i plyed them and it worked.
