here a guide for everything you ask. http://www.geocities.com/xboxinstigator ... phack.html
PPF's are file patchers that come with the mods in them so all you do is apply them to thr right cache file. Read the website link and then ask if you have anymore questions

I'd be happy to answer your question, as it is very good and has never been asked before. Oh wait, none of those things are true. SEARCH you bastard! It's at the top of the page. Go read some tuts. Go to xbox-scene it's the best XBOX mod related website around. All you need to apply mods is PPF-O-MATIC and Flashfxp. The tut that guy posted a link to kind of explained all this, but what you have to do is start playing HALO, load the map you want to edit, exit, connect to your xbox with flashfxp, go to the Z drive, save the appropriate cache file(cache003 is blood gulch) on your computer, open PPF-O-MATIC, apply the patch to the map, and put the map back where you got it using flashfxp. -Just a tip, PPF-O-MATIC tells you to look for an ISO file, but if you change the file type to all at the bottom of the open window you can just patch the .map files. I guess I answered your stupid question anyway.

Whoa. Ease up on the kid. He's 13 and new. Maybe if ppl would help ppl instead of bitching at them ppl wouldn't have to ask the same question over and over again.

But, yeah you should try searching for something like that using the search button at the top.

The mods on this site aren't full maps but patches for the original maps of the game. You have to download them and then patch your original map with them using PPF-O-Matic.

Here is what you do. With your computer, connect to ur xbox and go to either the x, y or z drive. The drive with the halo files will be the one with cache000-005 in it. Delete all the cache00X.map files. Disconnect from your xbox. Load up halo. Load bloodgulch. Make sure you click on Blood gulch first and not ne other map. Start the level. As soon as you are in the game, go back to evox(or w/e dash u have) Connect to ur xbox again. Go back to the drive where the cache00x files were. Copy the cache003.map file to ur PC. D-load w/e mod for BG you want to use. Get PPF-O-Matic too. Find your cache file and then patch it with the mod you downloaded. Then load it back on to the xbox overwriting the cache003.map that was there already. That should be it. Just load up BG and play the mod.

dazed_and_confused40k I have never posted in here, nor any other xbox associated website, but I felt so compelled to register and respond to your post that I had to. Rather than rake you over the coals as you did to someblackguy7130, even though he politely and very specifically asked for help and explained that he was new to this arena, I will only tell you how disappointing it is that people like you would rather take the time to degrade others than help them. No - you know what, screw this - you are a whiny, bitchy, little piece of dog turd. Learn some friggin respect for others you complete loser.
