HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

could any one give me a link to a good tutorial on how to get halo 2 onto my harddrive? the old website i used to goto for this is shut down, and i have already used the search button.

i'll tell you a tut right now,
first run your xbox with modded xbox, since you probably don't have a new better hd we are not going to copy the whole game because ur hd is not big enough
1-Make a folder called halo2 in your e\games folder or what ever is ur main drive if you have unleashx you may have to make a games folder
2-put ur halo 2 disc in
3- goto your file explorer program whatever it is
4-goto d should be like 6701 mb i think then copy the default.xbe in the halo2 folder, then make a folder called maps in halo2 folder
3-copy the fonts and media folder into \maps and then copy your maps so if your only gonna get the mp maps (With small hd)
-Copy mainmenu.map, and shared.map into \maps
-then copy,these maps into \maps ,beavercreek,burial mounds,lockout,coagulation,zanzibar,headlong,midship,foundation,cyclotron,ascension,coloosus,waterworks, and if i missed and mp ones copy them to
-ur done!

thanks, so then i dont need that attract crap?

and now im getting some dirty disc error!?!
when im not even using the disc )_0


i just tried to upload halo 2 and i have a crapy default thing?
and i was wandering if anyone could send me another default.xbe

lol you need mainmenue.map
I think he forgot to mention that. Don't wory, it's not your default.xbe. Just need mainmenue.map.

i put that on there >.>
its still telling me about my dirty disc error
i stlll thinks its that default thing, could anyone send me a new one>

Does it work when you run it off the DVD?

yea it doess
i think its the default.xbe thingy but idk

ok this happened to me to, just keep cleaning ur disk and coping the default.xbe intill it works

I will get you a good tut, just give me a sec.

If it works off your DVD you have a good default.xbe. Try moving it over again or if you happened to have enough room (my friend has a stock HDD with the whole game on it) you could use dvd2xbox and then delet the maps you don't need.

upgrade your dang hdd. its not expensive and offers many advantages. then install a dash/app that will backup the games to hdd. unleashx works well, as well as dvd2xbox. there are others just look around.

from the above posts it looks like you have a modded box, upgrade the hdd to get the most from your xbox!

yeah, 250 gigs is really nice, if you have like $100. I'm lucky, I got a Hitachi 250gig hdd that had $80 of rebates -- so it only cost like $80 (10 more dollars than the 100gig one =)). Maybe you can find something like that.

I'm unable to load any of the maps, it keeps saying that I failed to load the map.
