ok the maps, save them to the hard drive of your xbox. only way to edit and play them or you can edit them then burn them to cd. as for the trainers, look at my trainer guide in my profile

Wait...save them to the hardrive?...I just want to know how to get like all the game files for halo 2 off my xbox onto my pc...such as player profiles...map files...vehicle files..ect. but thanks for the trainer guide...if anyone could answer my other question it would be most appreciated

put your halo 2 disc in your xbox then ftp to your xbox and transfer the D folder

yeah you definitely arent in d:\ try clicking refresh and make sure that the game is BEING read on the dash, but your not in the game.

The cache thing only works for Halo 1. There is no point at looking at maps and such because you can't mod levels unless Halo 2 is saved to your Xbox HDD. Now as for modding profiles that can be done. Look it E:/UDATA/4d530064 now I would suggest copying that entire folder to your PC HDD if you want to edit. As for trainers, you can't use them if you have played Xbox Live before, there is a topic in here that tells you were the folder is(I think on your E) to delete in order to be able to use Trainers for Halo 2 and any other Xbox Live game. All your maps textures and files and such are going to be on your D:/ when you put the game in as runawaywarthog said.
