Is this a modded / JTAG 360?

If so, install the backwards compatible hacked files. Then you can replicate the structure like you would do on an original xbox.

Meet Karen.

Shes abused by a bunch of kids. Honestly, some of the sickest shit I ever heard kids say. They upload it online (8 hours later it has 1mil views, but for the wrong reason), and the internet goes crazy. People have found the school district and contacted everyone.

Point being in 24 hours. All the kids information has been found (Address, Facebook, etc) and people have been sending hate mail and some crazy stuff to their homes. The police have visited the homes of the kids and their entire family is now disgraced.

People literally drove to their home(s) to express their concern and the police had to get involved in fear of violent action.

30,000 people spammed their FBs accounts until the kids closed them, and now everyone is going to help Karen.

Karen who would probably make a small yearly wage (due to school fees), has already $200,000 in donations here: http://www.indiegogo...eforkarenhklein

I posted this for one reason. I can't stand children like this. I witness it too much, and it pisses me off.

Hello all,

Seems like ages since I've done a news topic. In all reality I had plans of shutting this site down about 8 months ago. For some strange reason, I just can't let go of it. The server iBotModz is on is very stable and the other sites on the server are going strong, so I don't think its going anywhere.

Not saying that were going to come back and do anything, I just wanted to make a new site theme to align with some new Metro UI standards.

Halo 4 is coming soon. We'll try and mod it. Easier to do research and keep it organized here then some of the more popular and over-populated forums.

Hope you enjoy the theme. Report all bugs here. I spent about 10 hours on it. We have some pretty high caching systems here, so give it a couple hours as the new images are re-cached. You can always hard refresh to get the new theme.

Thanks,
Peaches

Quite embarrassing. They continue to treat their customers like absolute shit.

Wow, that is coming up already.

Need to dust off the 360 stuff and get ready to give one more shot at modding Halo.

Pikmin never die.

Saw it was your bday today.

Congrats.

I've upgraded to the newest version of the site. No point in letting that license lie dormant. Nothing really new, just stuff behind the scenes.

Hope didn't cause anyone any problems.


Thanks,
peaches

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

SOPA sucks.

I just saw Requiem for a Dream, and besides the fact that there were some disgusting scenes in it.

It showed the complete destruction of 4 characters and their addicting on various drugs. How they lost everything they had simply due to an addiction. The filming was strange and out of the ordinary, but the movie really mind blowing.

Anyone else seen it?

yeeeeeeeeee

Halo CE Debug Mode
//iBotPeaches

Requirements:

• JTAG/Dev
• Transfer Device or FTP Access
• Hex Edit Knowledge

How to do it. In memory editing the location is.

0x8245397F. Its a byte set to 00. Change it to 1. The controls are choppy and complicated, but it'll work. If you don't have realtime and are modifying the XEX. Go to offset 0x457962 That should move you to a line that looks like (see below). If it doesn't. Go to offset 0x45397F (and add 3FE3 (hex) to it). Look around there for the line below. Remember were editing a unencrypted, decompressed xex file. You can do this in xex tool doing (see bottom of post).

38 A0 00 00 38 89 86 C4

change to.

38 A0 00 01 38 89 86 C4

Or catch me on msn for the XEX or here or mu lol.

First time: Hold RB/LB + RT to launch the menu first time. You can even do this at the mainmenu. A version number will appear in top right if successful.

Hold RB (2 seconds) then click LB. = Pop Debug Menu / Close Debug Menu
DPAD = Navigate Menu
A = Select Options

Hold RB (3 seconds)
- Enables Fly Cam
- Moves to 3rd Person
- Moves to 1st Person

Hold LB (+ X Button)
- Enable/Disable God mode
- This god mode allows your health to never go past the last red bar. I tested by standing the middle of 3 elites on Legendary. They attacked me over and over and I never lost that last bit of health. The instant I clicked LB + X, It said, "God Mode Off" and I died.

Hold LB (+ A Button)
- Enable Gun Fly Mode (noclip)
- Body teleports to camera location after clicking again

Hold LB (+ B Button)
- Freezes for screenshot
- Stored in the active game partition (D), so you have to view it while the game is running. (dead canadian)
- In the game.cfg file, under the DEBUG section there is ScrShotPath="D://shots". Possibly changing to like HDD1://shots will work? (untested)

Thanks;

• deadcanadian (plugins)
• Xerax (found offset too, but forgot to button mash lol)
• AMD (explaining ppc)

XEX Tool Help;

xextool -ra -mr -cu -eu -o default_uncompressed.xex default.xex

• Removes all limits
• Converts to Retail (JTAG)
• UN-encrypts
• UN-compresses
• It does not alter the original (default.xex).
• It creates new one at default_uncompressed.xex

What now?
Some controls on the debug menu: (cheats and collisions) don't save the options you select and they are always enabled (without giving the associated effects). My guess is that since the debug options are present in the game.cfg file, that there used to be variables for the cheats and collisions options that were removed prior to retail release. Maybe even in another cfg file, not currently referenced. However, the XEX only lists this 4 cfg

• game.cfg (present)
• user.cfg (present)
• parameters.cfg (unknown)
• saves.cfg (campaign save file, inside package)

If your "old" xbox 360 broke. That has the harddrive attached. Simply pop that off. Use a screw driver and remove the plastic casing until your down to a little SATA drive.

That will slide right into the hdd slot in the 360 slim.

Does anyone just ever look back at this site and other sites, and say "wow that was 4 years ago". Most of us were just little kids interested in some part of modding. None of us really knew what we were doing, we were just vastly interested with this "modding". The community around Halo 2 built an empire, the amount of registrations on various sites was extreme. Sites were everywhere with the common idea: work together towards a goal. TMU Mods, Se7ensins, HaloMods, Xbox-Scene, HaloTech, HaloStrike, DarcNetworks, Zeromodz, and iBotModz all shared a part in this. Of course, the big one to remember was HaloMods. HM was the first site I joined, I was banned in about a month for something I still don't know. (hint why IBM was created).

iBotModz started as a free forum software. I was a little kid. I had no money, no PayPal and no knowledge. Kudos to all the "hackers" that messed us up. You hacked a kid, hope it felt good. I was into action replay modding, and looking back at those files they all had 1000+ downloads, which is what brought a great deal of the members here. Halo 2 was removed from Action Replay sometime last year. I guess they couldn't hold what was probably 50+ GB of content and the constant stream of downloads anymore. We built a community and capitalized on a period of time that will probably never come again. We will never have the caring people, free tools, cheap modding, exploitable games, and cheap consoles again. I broke at least 10 normal xbox's and could afford to get more. Anyone could buy Action Replay for $15 bucks, and assuming they had the right games could softmod their xbox. It was cheap and easy. We're in a society now where this cheap form of modding is non-existent. You have to drop 100$ + to even begin modding. Point being, the time of the past isn't coming back. It's like Halley's Comet, its a once in a life time ride and we were part of it.

I joined HaloMods, because I was spawned killed during a Halo 2 match and I was determined to find out and become just like that. Modding and online communities were a big chunk of my early childhood, whether I'd like to admit or not. These communities helped me find what I wanted to do with my life. I met some people online that I've known longer than some of my real friends. I still talk with some of you daily, and it was fun knowing you and watching where we all went as we grew up. Who knew that 5 years later I'd be a couple of years from a Computer Science degree, and that TheMasterSnail would be chasing storms in South Africa. Halo 2 and these online forums drove me into my college education. I'd like to think that iBotModz influenced a couple of people on their path of life.

Kudos to everyone that was a part of this forum, and thanks for some great memories (as cheesy as it sounds). Here is a shout out to anyone I remember, who helped build iBotModz or this community.

• lostmodz - brother of Zer0, remember him learning extremely quickly and soon publishing some really cool stuff.

• grimdoomer - Your applications are amazing and advance. Too bad its a few years late.

To anyone I forgot. Its nothing personal. This was all from memory. If I forgot someone, I'll edit you in here. iBotModz has always been a hobby to me, never a business. I've never profited from this site. All money I ever received here was dumped back into the site some time in the future. It will always remain a hobby, and never a business. As long as I have the money to pay for the server, iBotModz will stay up. Regardless if there is 1 post a week.
