How Can I Change The Xbox Name In Link Up?
« on: June 15, 2004, 10:30:00 AM »

If your xbox is modded, it's extremely easy to change. The easiest way that I've found is xtoolbox app (it goes on your xbox). If it is not there is a game exploit (don't remember where it is, use the search feature).

to change it to regular characters use Return to castle wolfenstein,motogp,DOA, and several others. As for xbox apps xboxtoolboxx is definently the best. If you want your xbox name to be something cool that will make people quit on xbc try this

put some of these in your name and watch (for halo ofcourse)

lets just do it the easy way

1. FTP into your xbox
2. Go into your E:\ Drive
3. Find the folder called UDATA and open it
4. There should be some folders in there and a file called NICKNAME.XBN
5. Copy the NICKNAME.XBN to your PC desktop and open it in a Hex Editor
6. Right at the top it will have you xbox nickname, not just change it to what you like but make sure you keep the periods between the letters.  If your nickname has spaces leave a space bwtween 2 periods like this (ex: N.u.m.b.e.r. .O.n.e)
7. Save the file
8. FTP it back into your E:\UDATA folder
9. Overwrite the original one
10. Play online and check out you new xbox name!

How in the hell is that easier than opening xboxtoolbox and pressing A a few times. seriously dude think.

Cjc: these characters are from the Pillar of autumn tutorial the first time ytou play. i.e %crouch is a picture of the left thumbstick moving up and down. %A-button is a picture of th Abutton from the xbox controller.

sortdan: Yes there is a very short length allowed. When ever these characters are used they start from the middle and go right. Byt3Ra!d figured it out long ago and disappeared. Try it and youll see. The name you tried wil not work  because they have to (As Far As I Know) abide by the eleven letter limit to the name
