most mods ive tried work fine, and ive placed them in the override folder in the TDATA or UDATA folder. i forget which it is. the only problems im having are when a cheat console is involved (thanks for mentioning that bit about overwriting a game file, ive gotta try that!), or when im trying to get stuff to work with the DLC. seriously, if you havent been on xbox live, just use a 2 month trial to get all your downloading needs, you shouldnt get banned as long as you dont keep your chip on when going on LIVE (or have a non-original BIOS running in some way, shape, or form), dont try to use modded content on LIVE, and you dont switch your HDD. that should at least give you time to get the DLC you want. but yea, override in TDATA or UDATA works for me, the only problem is trying to use both mods and DLC, but i might have that fixed now, i havent been able to test it fully. oh, and dak vesser, ive got the same problem with the stormtrooper armor, its not just you.
