This post is an archive of modding resources. That includes programs, saves and tutorials. As the majority tutorials aren't specific for newbies to follow, I've created this "mega-thread" in order to help all new to the modding community. Before I go on, I would like to thank the community, and the people behind these applications. You go unnoticed, but your work doesn't. Moving onwards, you're going to need a way of connect your storage to your computer. This can either be done with a USB Flash Drive, or a Transfer Cable. I personally recommend using a USB Flash Drive, it's cheaper than buying a Transfer Cable and also more efficient. (Modding-wise) Since you now have a way of connecting your storage device to your PC, next you need a way of accessing the files stored on it. Here's a list of programs that can do so: USBxTAF Le Fluffie Xplorer 360 Party Buffalo Driver Explorer [Beta] Xport 360 Modio [Beta] For these, if you don't have a zip/rar browsing application, download WinRAR. This is needed to do the majority of these tutorials. Win-RAR You should now have access your files on your computer. Time for some modding! Here's a list of Modding Resources that allow you to modify your files, and some content that you can add: Horizon Beta Modio Beta Eclipse Grunt Modder Hex Editor Halo Toolbox 3.5 Willow Tree GPD Downloader CoD Tool EzGT Final Xbox 360 Achievement Unlocker Clan Edit Fallout 3 Visual Editor Halo Screenshot Tool exProfileEditor Crown Profile Editor Through those applications, you can modify your game data. Don't know how? Have the specified game save on your USB/HDD. [*]Open up one of the listed programs that allow you to browse your device.
