Well there are many ways you can hack Halo. You can use Programs that people have created to change projectiles or shaders and what not. There is a tutorial about how to at my site (Click Below) or if you're too lazy to click the link here is the tutorial. Follow these instructions very carefully.


Requirements:
FTP (LeapFTP or FlashFXP are good ones)
Hex Editor ( HHD Hex Editor is the best one)
A Mod Chip (Obviously)

How to hack Multi-player maps (Follow the instructions very clearly!)

1. Delete all of your cache files in your FTP (They could be in either X,Y, or Z drive)
2. Load the level that you want to hack (i.e. Blood Gulch)
3. When it is done loading shut off you xbox then turn it back on.
4. When it is at the Dashboard, FTP back into your box and download cache003.map
5. Change all of the offsets you want to change through hex editing or programs (i.e. Cartographer, If you don't know how to hex edit read my tutorial).
6. Then when you have changed all the offsets you want to change, Upload the updated cache003.map back into your box.
7. Load up Halo then Hack away!

How to hack Single player maps:

1. FTP into your box and delete all the cache files in either your X,Y, or Z drive.
2. Load the Map you want to hack (i.e. Silent Cartographer)
3. When the map is done loading shut your box off then turn it back on.
4. FTP back into your box then download cache000.map
5. Edit everything you want to change and then Upload cache000.map back into your box
6. Load the level you loaded before and start hacking


Now, I don't know if people need help with this but I'll put it down anyways.

How to add a Trainer to Halo:

1. Download IPSWin from yahoo or google (or whatever you like best).
2. Download a Trainer (You can download it from here, but http://www.xbox-saves.com is a good one too).
3. Download Win RAR from a search engine again.
4. Then, FTP into your box and go to your E drive I think it is.
5. Go to games then go to the copy that is Halo.
6. In that folder is a File called default.xbe.
7. Download that to your comuter.
8. You win RAR to un rar the file and to open up the IPS file.
9. Use Win IPS to patch default.xbe and CZN-Halo.IPS together.
10. Then load the default.xbe back into your box.
11. Now, when you go to your games to laod on your hard drive, Halo should say Halo- TRAINED.
12. Load that then when in a Map (Single or Multi-player) Click down both the Thumbsticks to bring the menu up.
13. Do the same thing to bring it down.
14. Start Hacking!

I know you guys are getting bored now but just in case heres anyther thing:

How to add .ppf files to your Game:

1. Download ppf-o-matic3 from a search engine or whatever.
2. Delete all the cache files then load the map you want to hack.
3. Reset the Xbox and then download the map you just loaded.
4. Use ppf-o-matic3 to patch the files together (i.e. Patch cache003.map with moddedflyingvehicles.ppf)
5. Then load The cache file back to your box and Voila!

Now If you guys all knew about this already then sorry. This is for the people that don't know how to hack.

I hope I Helped.

Oh, and here is how you hex edit... Little example.


Here Is How To Hex Edit:

First I recommend getting HDD Hex Editor.

Say you wanted to change the AR to shoot Rockets. Then you would have to replace the bytes for the AR Bullet for the Rocket bytes. This is how to do it.


Bullet (0x233dbf8) 94 44 83 80
[0x27c9a94] [0xe2a2012e] (weapons/assault rifle/bullet)


Copy 0x233dbf8 and go to your hex editor. Type Ctrl+G, Ctrl+V (Only press Ctrl+V if you have 0x233dbf8 copied) then press enter. Now you should see a blck thing blinking on a number. the number should be 94 44 83 80 . Those are the bytes you need to replace.

Rocket (0x2344438) d4 83 98 80
[0x291d9d4] [0xe5e40470] (weapons/rocket launcher/rocket)


Now take those 4 bytes (The green numbers) and punch those in to replace 94 44 83 80.

Now when you play Blood Gulch your AR should shoot out rockets.

Some reasons why the map might not load or doesn't have hacks on it might be because:

1.You changed something with something else that just can't happen

2. You loaded the wrong cache file

3. You accidentally punched in an extra Number and/or letter where you weren't supposed to.



There are alot more things you can change that just projectiles with hex editing you can change pretty much anything to anything if you really are that good.

but how do save it to my halo disk

people, once and for all you are not alowed to talk about hacking into the xbox at this site.. if u want to do this then go to xbox-scene, otherwise please refrane from this subject, these forums are about halo modding, not xbox, and although this is the xbox section, it refers to the halo section of xbox

What the hell are you talking about? Everything I just said related to hacking Halo...

yeah, well theres too much talk about ftp and mod chip.. ahh damnit i forgot to read thouroghly, my bad, lol

but this can still be a reminder.. if u want to talk about those things go to xbox-scene

i coulda swore... hmmm

Ok, but FTPing is the only way to hack halo though. So you have to FTP.

DO I HAVE TO HAVE A MOD CHIP? can I do anything without it?

still, dont talk about it, i will delete posts if needed because gren has stated he doesnt want hacking into the xbox itself on these forums, and yes for xbox you need to have a mod chip and ethernet cable

thankyou

well there are ways to get around having to get a modchip....go to xbox-scene.com for more info

Quick question then:
I've read through a few posts, and still not clean on one issue
Does Halo need to be stored on My XBOX HD? Or is modding the cache files alone sufficent?

go to xbox-scene, dont talk about modding your xbox here, if you do your posts will have to be deleted, enough said, now only talk about halo... thats the only reason you should be here
