misc Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 I've copied the files from the Halo 2 disc to my chipped xbox via ftp. When starting the game there's no menu text (as if the font is missing). Selecting menu options at random starts the intro movie, which runs for a bit then crashes. The files are verified extracted and copied ok. Lots of other games transferred exactly the same way are working fine. It is a v1.6 with an xecuter 2 chip. I tried to run the ACL from dvd2xbox on the installed folder, but that seemed to hang and hadn't completed after 10 hours. There isn't a specific acl for Halo 2 installed as far as I xcan tell, so it is running the default one. Any suggestions? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ging3rguy Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 If you have an original disk use dvd2xbox to load it to your hdd. If you have an iso try using qwix to load it to your hdd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misc Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 No original disc unfortunately, I’m working with files extracted from redump iso. I’ll try making the files into an iso in quix then use that to do the transfer. Is Halo 2 known to be trouble to run from hdd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ging3rguy Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 I personally haven’t had any issues with it on hdd via back up. Maybe you have a duff back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misc Posted July 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Used quix as you suggested. Used the same files made into an iso, then uploaded the iso. Now it all works fine. Thanks for the tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchBite Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 This is caused by the font files being FTPed as ASCII and not as BINARY files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
