Halo 2 experts?

Question

i was wondering the different kinds of mods there are. Just out of curiosity.

Answer 1

There's soft modding and "hard" modding

Soft mods are software only, Hard mods use hardware chips.

Xbox Live will ban you if you connect to their system with either type on your xbox, including even "action replay". They are talking about doing IP address mask bans soon, which means they can ban your household from connecting to it.

I'd hate to do that and find-out I can't take Halo 3 online because I got impatient.

I'd recommend going to http://www.halomods.com which is full of mod tutorials for Halo 1 on PC.. Then when Halo 2 comes out on PC (early next year) you'll be in a good spot to figure-out how to mod THAT one too.. without getting banned.

That's just me though.. other than that.. the easiest way to mod, and also the cheapest (but possibly the least satisfying?) is to use action replay.

Buy Action Replay from like Walmart, then go to the off codejunkies usa site to download the stuff you need there, then change the drivers of the usb docking station to the action replay ones .

But again.. if you connect to Bungie with Xbox live with any of that on your system, Bungie's system will detect it and ban you, whether you use it or not.

Of course if you use xboxconnect, instead of LIVE, you wont be banned.

Answer 2

just stay away from the mods and enjoy the game. But if you really into it do a google search under halo 2 mods and it will show you all kinds of results and you can download them and put them into your action replay kit which you can buy at ebgames or gamestop or something like that and put them into your game.
