Mods onto a disk?

Post by Spazmonkey »

I plan on holding a system link party soon, but the thing is, I am the only one with a modded xbox. It would be super cool if we could all play modded maps, but from my modest understanding, I'm going to need to put the maps onto a disk. Any good tutorials out there that someone can point me to?

If you're the only one with a modded Xbox only you can play mods.

Really? So the other xbox will be able to play the modded maps no problem? I was under the impression it didn't work or something.

I meant only a modded Xbox can play modded content.

But a modded Xbox can play mods off a disc.

So, the only way for the other xbox to play the modded maps for them to be modded themselves, just system linking wouldn't do the trick? I thought that by putting the maps on a disk, you were creating something sort of like the map pack Bungie realeased.

Certain mods such as running speed and jump height edits will work for non modders on system link if you are the host, but that's about it.

And no you can't just create a mappack like that.

Ah, alright, thanks for the help. So I assume map packs can't be made at all then? Which I'm just SOL for my system link party?

If the mods r simple things like projectile swaps, try using that Visible Tool ;)
