Dont worry man im not going to flame you. Im going to do the opposite and help you, lol. OK, lets say you downloaded a .ppf file off of the halomods site. From here you are going to need some tools, but first ill explain to you how you install the .ppf file.

1. Bloodgulch: cache003.map (clean file)
2. Get that off of your xbox and from either your X, Y, or Z folder.
3. Now you need a program called "PPF-O-MATIC v3" heres the link http://files.halomods.com/viewforum.php ... be617f3eea
4. Open the program and patch it.
5. Then you can install that cache003.map file back into your xbox in either the X, Y, or Z folder and restart your xbox. (overwrite original cache)
6. Go play halo and it should work!

Now since we got that straight. In order for you to mod xbox maps you will need these tools. Ill post them below so that you know what you have to get. From here you will have to learn how to use them, i wont sit here and teach you. But I will guide you in the right direction!

Xbox Modding Tools...
1. Sparkedit v3.02
2. PPF-O-Matic v3
3. HMT v3.5
4. HHT

These are optional...
1. HME v1.2.1
2. HHHT v1.3

I hope i was able to help. Have fun modding! Enjoy.

Just one thing to add to that (great explanation). in order for you to get cache003 (could be something else like cache005, thats what it is for me) you have to play it on you're xbox so it will turn be opened up into a cache map. u'll need to have the level that you want to mod, the last level that has been played on you xbox. You can then FTP into your xbox using an FTP program. and pull the map onto your computer so you can patch it.

cache000.map, cache001.map and cache002.map are usually single player levels.

Whereas, cache003.map, cache004.map, and cache005.map are mulitplayer maps.

002 is the user interface map, not a SP level
