I have a recent build of xbmc (within the past month) and xlink kai works perfectly on there....except for when I find a game or arena I want to play in and select "Play" for Halo 2, instead of launching the game it launches Mimesis (an app for downloading new maps for online games like Halo 2 and KOTOR). I don't understand why it does this...since Mimesis is in a completely different drive and everything. I have Mimeses in E:\Apps (which is where xbmc is also) and halo 2 is in F:\games. The folder name for mimesis is just __MimesisV2__ and halo is unchanged from when I put it on the hard drive with DVD2Xbox. However, when I try to play any other game I have through Kai, it simply says it could not find the game. I know I can just go launch the game through the Games menu, but I'm just confused about the whole Mimesis thing.....Does anybody know why it does this or maybe how to fix it?

I have the same exact problem....except i'm running Halo 2 from DVD-ROM. everytime i go to "Play" in Xlink kai it just boots up Mimesis...
Strange...............

it must have something to do with the saved games .. they must share the same saved game number .. i also noticed that when u load a bunch of trainers into XBMC it gives mimesis the application a halo2 trainer ..

I bet XBMC sorts the games by the gameid number and Mimesis has the same gameid or so. I just renamed mimesis to defaulta.xbe so it doesn't get found, and I start it via files section directly if I need to.
