    I want to update my softmod with SID 5.1 (yep, I still use my modded xbox) but I don't have either of the 3 games needed to softmod it. If I download Splinter Cell and transfer it onto my HDD to be loaded directly from said HDD, would I be able to update the softmod by running the game and then loading the save? Or would I have to uninstall the softmod and buy the game again (Pshhh, if I can find it anywhere) to re-mod it?

    I've never tried that, but I'm going to try it on mine and see if it loads.


    Edit: yep it worked. It immediately detected the linux savefile, and they I clicked checkpoints on Splinter Cell and boom I was greeted with the modded linux menu. I didn't click any options, because I don't want to break my setup, but I'm confident that they should work.

    Sweet. I'll try it now, I have the eeprom backup and everything.

    First I need to make sure the game even works, because almost 25% of the games I've downloaded from xboxisozone don't work with my xbox for one reason or another :/

    Edit: I think it's working :) At first I thought it would conflict with the existing softmod, but then I knew it would work when it said it would format my C drive and then install the softmod. Now I wait for it to finish..............................Awesome, it worked. Thanks for your help, I'm glad I didn't break it lmao :smoke:

    Edit 2: Ha, I found a typo. The screensaver says SID 3.1 Final, and I'm 100% sure I installed it with SID 5.1 Final. It even said that in the installer.
