Xbox Softmodding

==Preparations==
Softmodding an Xbox is... involved(unless you use the hot-swapping method, which has no special requirements apart from a PC with PATA interface). You need a few pieces of equipment that may be hard to come by (i.e. an Action Replay), several programs, and a suitable PC environment to go from start to finish. To make things easier, you should ensure that you have everything you need before you get started. You should also be comfortable with some technical tasks, such as using an FTP client, adding/removing and setting jumpers on IDE HDD's, using command-line programs (nothing too complicated), and accessing xbins (see the next section).
===Phase 1: Game save exploit===
* An official, Microsoft-branded memory card (while the Action Replay does come with a memory card, it's cheaply made and is likely to become corrupted)
====Software====
* UXE installer by Krayzee Krayzie (xbins: /XBOX/Console Based Applications/exploits/_Packages/Krayzie Uxe Installer/)
===Phase 2: Upgrading the HDD===
To access xbins, you need an IRC client and an FTP client. Just about any IRC client will work (I use mIRC in Windows and Konversation in Ubuntu), but xbins is very particular about the type of FTP client you use: it requires an FTP client that does not attempt to use multiple connections to download files. It recommends FlashFXP, SmartFTP, and CuteFTP.
 
==Game save explot (007)==
I only have access to '''007 Agent Under Fire''', so that is what I'll assume you have for this section. The steps for '''Mech Assault''' and '''Splinter Cell''' should be very similar, differing only in how you boot the exploit from the game, but you will need to locate another source for specific instructions for those games (for now).
