ok, is this to create patches, or to use them? because i'm looking for a ppf maker. and if it is for making them, you really need to show me.

Thanks SourceGuy, Vault.
Very informative! Can't wait to do my mods in HMT and Sparkedit, then just keep using them back on the Xbox with HCE.

This is just getting easier and easier.

No problem, glad to help! I needed to know how to use PPF Studio a while back and I couldn't find a very clear tutorial on it, so I wrote that one. I hope it worked for you and will work for others aswell. Good luck to you and your modding. :D

I dont know what on earth i did but my ppf studio has been running but when i make the patch and try to run it, the thing says its not a valid ppf.


Can deleting your computers TEMP files and temp internet files do something to this????


I dont really keep track of things but I dont know what to do now.


I re-downloaded the program too. Still doesent load.


I hope you can help!!!


Thanks everyone................................. :wink:

Hi GaMe MaStErS rEvEnGe,
Did you read the Vaults' tute? Make sure you're creating a "general" ppf,and not an Xbox format. Sounds weird i know, but the general one's definitely work for me when I patch maps through HCE or PPF-Omatic. :wink:

I need help on the last step of creating a ppf file... It says this error: "ERROR! Files are not equal in size!"

How do I fix this?
Ah, Halomods has undergone some progress since i've left.

Forums.Xbox-Scene.com is chalk full of tuts on how to MOD an xbox and how to FTP files to your Xbox from your computer. As long as you have a MOD chip or a SoftMod, you should be able to FTP using IE or FlashFXP or another FTP program.

To FTP files to my box, I set my Xbox's IP to 192.168.0.3 and my NIC card to 192.168.0.2, set the box's username as xbox and password as xbox and connected like this: ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3


If any of that confused you, just check out Xbox-scene.com for some nicely written tuts.

Thanks for the compliment on my tutorial. Actually, the only reason I made it was because I had to seek extra assistance to learn how to use the program because I was unable to understand BOLL's (sorry, no offense BOLL). Anyway, glad to see it's helped people!

@Banshee Ace 2, make sure you have your original un-edited .map file, and that your modded one is the same size as the original (as in MB) - meaning that the edited map is a copy of the original, but just a modded version of the copy. If you copy the original, and then mod the copy, they should still be of equal size. Hope this helps!

Ahh ya goodluck with that, no one on this forum is willing to help I'm sure. Try a google search for HaloMods and seek help there. Sorry but at this point in time I to am a noobie.
Give me a few hours to play around, I'll post back with your answer if your still around.

lol ok you need to use PPF-o-matic to patch the Cache003 file with one of these mods "PPF" files.

In PPF-o-matic use your Cache003 file as the ISO file.

Sorry about the assholes on this forum not willing to help a guy out.
