Ok Guys, I posted a Tut that tells you everthing on modding in the modded xbox forum, so check that out. What You Need: Softmodded Xbox (OF COURSE!)
Modding new Halo 2 Maps

The most common question is "where do I put my fricken modded Maps?" well its really easy. first go to your E/ folder on your HD then go to TDATA and look for a folder called 4d530064 in other words the "64 folder". OK what you need to do is first get your mods ready to enter your box. name a folder called "Back up Halo 2 Maps" and use FlashFXP to copy all of your of your Maps there. Oh! by the way all your maps are located within the 64 folder it looks like this $c that is the folder with in the 64 one. OK back to the maps and stuff, you either create your modded maps your own with these Files .NET Framework V2CMR V2AIO V2. For the .NET to work with the modding programs you need to go to control panel and then go to add/remove programs and delete your previous .NET and then install the .NET V2.

Now in order to make your own modded maps which I think is a waste of time IF you know what your doing. This is where you want to go if want you want to know a basic halo 2 modding tut by AzzidReign Halo 2 Modding 4 beginners. OK if you want to get premodded maps which is a lot smarter is to go to the 3 websites right here BlitzModzMods4Hire You need to register with these sites in order to get the mods. ok all these sites have PPF and SPPF patches, so in order for you to get th3s3 patches onto a .map file you need these 2 programs PPF-O-Matic and SuperPPF just go to the site that has these files and go under Halo 2 Modding tools and they will be right there. Its quite simple really, create a folder called Modded Halo 2 Maps and put the .map file you wish to be modded right there, since you have all the maps in you unmodded folder just simply copy and paste the .map file to the modded map folder. OK now in order for the mods to be modded you need to put the patch within the .map file in order to do thi is ot either open SuperPPF or PPF-O-Matic, certain patches have PPF or SPPF. SPPF's go with SuperPPF and PPF's go with PPF-O-Matic. Enough said, lets acually put those patches with your .map fileThere is a Map file and a patch file with both patch programs put you .map with the map file and put the SPPF or PPF file under the patch file nad then commence the process and it should be done. just make sure to put the patched map files in a safe area so you wont lose them. Now go to your modded map folder and you will the .map file on its own and now open up CMR and just retire the map, all you need to do is just put the .map on your box and your done

Killtrocity Map pack!

I know all of you search everywhere for this and all you get it with is a torrent file right? well thats over! go to this site to get the map pack prepatched! Kiltrocity Map pack go there and your wildest dreams will come true! just wait for the download time to finish and then make the whole file into an iso with Qwix. you install it get the Killtrocity Pack and make it into and iso with qwix, on Qwix go to create iso then on the local folder and put the killtrocity map pack there and then on the convert iso tab just put where you want you iso of the map pack. Then Just create a Game folder on your E/ folder and put the Killtrocity map pack on you’re your HD with Qwix! Not FlashFXP! I dont know how to put it on a DVDim real sorry about that.

When people are posting tuts from the cached page I think they should fix the font and make it look nice like it was.
