this is how i do it, i extract the .dds in CH2R, open it and esit it in Photoshop, then i save in the correct format, and i reinject the.dds to the map using CH2R, then i resign, FTP the map back to the xbox, i delete the cashe's (all files in X:\ Y:\ and Z:\ then i load the game.
that works for me.

yes, it takes an uber long time because of the way the XB is proggrammed, its designed to cashe from disc to HDD, its optimized to be fastest that way,
but when it cashe's from hdd to hdd, it reads a byte, writes a byte, reeds a byte, writes a byte, and with a 16MS seek time on the stock hdd, it becomes a 5 minute task for the XB to complete.
