FTP with no application

[XBC-Requiem]

Well, all it takes is a batch file (.bat).

Open up Notepad and insert the following text:

Code: Select all

explorer "ftp://xbox:[email protected]:21"
explorer "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Xbox\Modded Maps"

To go directly to your maps folder in Halo 2 on the E:\ drive, use the following code instead:

Code: Select all

explorer "ftp://xbox:[email protected]/E/games/Halo 2/maps/"
explorer "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Xbox"

To go directly to your maps folder in Halo 2 on the F:\ drive, use the following code instead:

Code: Select all

explorer "ftp://xbox:[email protected]/F/games/Halo 2/maps/"
explorer "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Xbox"

To go directly to your maps folder in Halo 2 on the G:\ drive, use the following code instead:

Code: Select all

explorer "ftp://xbox:[email protected]/G/games/Halo 2/maps/"
explorer "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Xbox"

Where it says "ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.101.13:21", you need to change the underlined portion to your Xbox IP address.

Where it says "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Xbox", you need to change that to the file path where your maps are stored.

Now, save it as "xbox.bat" to your desktop or wherever you normally keep your applications. Make sure that "Save as type", which should be *.txt, is changed to "All Files".
When you double-click it, it will open up two windows. One will have your Xbox files, the other will have your map files.

Enjoy!

(Yes, I realize that this should be in Tutorials, but more people will see it here)

(Having a dual-monitor setup is nice here... I have it set so that the Xbox explorer opens on the left monitor and the PC explorer opens on the right monitor... VERY handy!)

Why didn't you post it there to begin with? >.<

Well, I figured that more people would see it here than in Tutorials, so I put here. But apparently, not all that many people saw it, so I'm requesting that it get moved.

well actually if click start start, then right click my network places, click map network drive, then pick a drive "letter" for your xbox, then click the hi-lighted portion underneath where it says 'sign up for online storage or connect to a network server", click next, then 'choose another network location', next, then type the following "ftp://xbox:[email protected]_xbox_ip/F/games/halo 2/maps" (or wherever it is you have halo2 maps folder)

this will add the xbox halo2 maps folder (as well as the rest of the xbox)to your pc's local network, you can then create a shortcut on the desktop, allowing you ONE CLICK ACCESS! to your xbox, instead starting up flash ftp/core ftp or whatever you usually use.

then while in the process of power modding (making multiple changes and ftp'n repeatedly) you just minimize the ftp window, which auto-reconnects whenever you maximize it, allowing you to drag and drop VERY VERY FAST.

EDIT: I guess this is a tutorial.
