What can I delete?

Post by JK-47 »

I need to transfer my Halo 2 maps to my E drive, but I don't have enough space on my hard drive... I only need a little bit more space. So what can I delete off my Xbox that would make more room and not effect my Xbox?

Campaign maps that you think wouldn't serve any use.

The .bink files, but don't remove the bink folder.

I don't have an F drive :p

I'll just copy over the multiplayer maps until I want to mod a SP map.

What I was doing was I was just moving the multiplayer maps (nothing else) over to my E drive from my D drive, and there wasn't enough space on my E drive for the multiplayer maps to fit. I was just wondering if I could delete anything off the E drive like maybe the things in the CACHE folder.. (I haven't deleted them yet... I dunno if that'd be a good idea or not :p)

They take up a lot of space. If you have not already done so, do this. Other than that, unless you have other games or emulators/roms there isn't really anything you can delete. If you have a lot of DLC, that could also be the problem.

Isn't the bink folder just on the Halo 2 disk, though? Or is he talking about a bink folder on my E drive?

You can delete the bink (as stated before) and the media files from the Halo 2 directory. The folders aren't required.

Also deleting unused game saves helps.

I mean, delete the files inside the folder named "bink" but don't remove the folder itself because without the folder halo 2 mainmenu won't load.

Edit: why are always people quoting or repeating what was said above >_> that's not what i call helping but just bringing confusion, not help.

Having the folders or not doesn't matter. I've played Halo 2 without the bink or media folders on my hard drive since I can remember, and it works fine.
