    The bak file is a backup. Try using a usermap editor like Forge instead of a hex editor.

    Here:

    Free transfer cable from microsoft:
    Free, small, professionally built, hard to get.

    Xsata:
    You have to have your xbox on, and it goes between the hard drive and the xbox, and through a usb port on your computer. About $60.

    Xport(My favorite):
    You dock your hard drive into it, and plug it in to a usb 2.0 port. About $60.

    I recommend the xport, if you find getting the transfer cable too much of a hassle.

    i can do usermaps now but now i am having problems with film editing. i am sure i have this right...
    I extract the film, open it in Hex Workshop, search the gamertags, 45 bytes into gamertag.
    [IMG]
    [IMG]
    yellow part is the gamertag and the black highlighted parts are codes for the armour. i am changing these to 03030308 then saving, rehashing and resigning using CON Resigner which does both but I have hashed and resigned seperatly also. I then inject the film back into the file in which I got it from and when I load up Halo 3 it says the file is corrupted. What am I doing wrong?

    Ok two things.

    1. You don't have to extract the film, just edit the CON file. If you really want you can use a program.
    2. You don't resign the extracted file, you resign the CON file. (The one you extracted the file from).

    Nevermind about that.

    Just use a program if you are getting a corrupt error.

    He means don't bother extracting the film. Just edit and resign the CON file directly.

    only if you get banned, bungie will only ban you if you put mods on your fileshare so dont do that and you will be fine

    And you can get them in an AIO, look in the modding programs section. I reccomend you use Forge insted of a hex editor, forge is much easier

    You need a transfer device like an xport or xsata, they cost around $50

    Just search on google for xplorer im sure you can find it, if not download an AIO from the H3 modding programs section

    1. Unplug your xbox 360

    2. Pick it up

    3. Place it on your computer.

    XSATA, xport, HDD transfer cable, taking apart your HDD, and memory card transfer cable (bad idea).


    It's in most if not all AIO's (All In One's)
