FTP to your D drive while halo 2 is in your xbox and get all the maps but the single player ones, ones with numbers in front of them. Then FTP it into the games folder, along with all the other folders and files on your halo 2 disc.

can someone do a step by step kind of thing because i dont know which file to move them to and i dont know if the game has to be on the hardrive and where do i get the maps. i found some old maps in the maps folder after i went through games and halo 2 but the size for alll of them was 0 and so i deleted those and replaced them with modded levels but for most it didnt do anything and for the others they wont load.

Ok start up your xbox with your modded dash on. Put Halo 2 in the disc drive and the FTP to your xbox and open the D Drive. Ok now move all that into a folder called halo 2 on your computer. After you have it all delete all the .xbe's EXCEPT for the default.xbe. Now go into the maps folder and delete all the ones with numbers in front of them, like 03a_oldmombasa. Then after that you go back to your FTP and move the halo 2 folder into your games folder on your xbox, it should be under the E drive. If there's not a games folder just make one. After that you're good to go.

Ok well you can delete the stuff in the D drive since its on a disc. Delete the files on your computer after you import them into the halo 2 folder on your computer. Also no you don't need the bink folder.

Ok you should have 2 Folders, unless you want the bink folder. The bink folder isnt needed. Also have the Default.xbe. The two folder are maps and media. Insdie the maps folder you should have your maps and a fonts folder. if you have all that you're good.

Ok you should have the folder halo 2 in the games folder. Inside the halo 2 folder you should have bink, media, maps, and default.xbe. Make sure in your maps folder you have the fonts folder.
