Re: How to Mod Old Maps On A DVD-R (By XxMoNkEy42xX)

If you get your error at 0% your dump will be trash. Really if you want a 100% working dump open your computer. Then take out your dvd drive. Take the top off then take the magnet out of the top put that on top of the dvd so it stays in place. Then do the tut and when you have to swap disc all you need to do is hit stop drive. Take magnet off of disc then take the disc out and put in h2 and put magnet back on. To be honest i think the paper clip to emergency eject is just a fail.... 3/3 drives i did the paper clip failed to make a dump right. Just my opinion.

Flashing is when you take the old firmware and flash it with a new one, one that can read burned games. abut your error at 0%, that means you need to open your dvd (take the top off) and swap the disks without using the paper clip thing. also you need a blank DVD-R/DVD-RW to burn the game to.

Re: How to Mod Old Maps On A DVD-R (By XxMoNkEy42xX)

that one part when you stop the drive and get a paperclip then put it in and make the emergency thing make it open is there a chance it will break your disk drive my freind says there is a chance (dont really believe him).

Re: How to Mod Old Maps On A DVD-R (By XxMoNkEy42xX)

You can't break your disc drive with the emergency eject or the button wouldn't be there..But I don't think that way of swapping discs works with all drives..I think your Xbox may restart.

5. Now do this for all the maps except midship, and the main menu. Just open the ss patcher go to IMAGE TOOLS then IMAGE BROWSER then click the maps folder go down to midship and left click it once then right click it and then select REPLACE WITH FILE then find your modded midship and hit OK do the same with the mainmenu and they will work as long as they are modded correctly and resigned.
