To Mod the xbox360 version of ME2 you'll need:

1) a Transfer Cable/Transfer Kit/USB(NOTE: I cannot yet provide help on how to use a USB as I have yet to do this myself and it requires a different program than Xport360 so someone else will have to bring details about USB help)

The following warning is NOT a concern if using a Hard Drive and a Transfer Cable.

***WARNING*** If using a transfer kit for a memory card do NOT install the software Datel ships with it, instead configure it the way that this video shows(****HUGE WARNING***** after adjusting your memory card the way the video shows DO NOT, EVER configure it when prompted by your PC or you'll need another memory card):  

2) Xport360, download from here: http://uk.codejunkie...?article_id=272

3) Modio, download from here: http://www.game-tuts...unity/modio.php ****NOTE**** DO NOT worry about creating an account, logging in or paying for premium membership. You do NOT need any of those things for the purpose of modding ME2.

***WARNING*** once you open a save in Modio the interface should look like this: http://i42.tinypic.com/9j3uwz.jpg and like this: http://i39.tinypic.com/2m7sqpw.jpg When you right click in the File Contents tab you should have the options to Inject File Into Folder, Extract All and Delete. If you do not then you need a newer vdrsion of Modio but if you download from my link you should be OK. Also the newest version of Modio ***MIGHT*** be incompatible with Windows 7, I was trying to help someone else mod and apparently he wasn't able to download from my source while using Windows 7, not sure why.

4) The xbox360 version of Gibbed's Mass Effect 2 Save Editor, download from here: http://www.se7ensins...-2-save-editor/ ***NOTE*** Use the link that reads "here" NOT the one that reads "Gibbed's ME2 Editor (X360).zip"

****WARNING**** After it finishes downloading and you open it make sure to drag EVERYTHING into a new folder on the Desktop. The Save Editor will NOT work if you just put it on the desktop by itself. You HAVE to run it from the folder where all its other components are at. Here's a picture of what it should look like: http://i41.tinypic.com/2h2ffrp.jpg

Now follow the next steps in EXACTLY that order:

1) Connect your Memory card to your Transfer Cable OR your Hard Drive to the Transfer Cable and then to your PC.

2) Start Xport360 and open up your hard drive or memory card. If using hard drive go into partition 3 and into the second row of numbers from the top and it should make sense in english from there, if using a memory card go into partition 2 and into the second row of numbers from the top and it should make sense from there.

3) You'll want to find your character save on your storage device(NOT your individual numbered save.....yet) which should be named something like this: Trethon_21_Soldier_280310 (Trethon is the name, Soldier is the class and 280310 stands fro the date the character was created 28 March 2010). Once you find it you'll want to drag it to the desktop.

4) Open Modio, click on the foler icon at the top-left corner, find your desktop and your character save and select open.

5) In Modio with your save open select the File Contents tab, right click somewhere in the white space and Click on "Extract All". Now when asked where to save you'll want to select your desktop, click on the "Make New Folder" button at the bottom and click OK. This will put all of your numbered saves into a file on your desktop.

6) Open up Gibbed's Save Editor from the folder you put it in earlier on your desktop, click on the folder icon at the top left, find the folder you extracted your individual numbered saves to on the desktop, open it, select a numbered save you want to edit and open it. ***NOTE*** Gibbed's save editor can ONLY open numbered saves named like this: Save_0003.xbsav NOT character saves.

7) Make the mods you want to your ammo, weapons, hairstyles, minerals, morality points etc.

8) Save the edited version of your save into the same folder with the other numbered saves either by overwriting the edited save OR by rising the number of the save like this for example: from Save_0009.xbsav to Save_0010.xbsav

9) Go back to the File Contents tab of your character's save in Modio and do one of the following two things:

a) If you overwrote the numbered save you edited: right click on the numbered save you edited IN Modio's File Contents tab, select delete and confirm.

B) if you raised the number of your numbered save up by 1 go to step 10

10) In Modio's File Contents tab of your character's save right click anywhere in the white space and select: "Inject File into Current Folder", find the modded numbered save in the folder on the desktop you extracted it to, click on it and click the open button.

11) Go to the "General File Info" tab of your save in Modio and click on "Rehash and Resign" and close Modio.

12) Open Xport360, find your character save in your storage device and delete it from your storage device. Now Drag the copy of your character save from your desktop into your storage device.

13) Close Xport360, put the storage device into your 360, fire it up, start Mass Effect 2, load the numbered save you modded and enjoy.

@ Darth Trethon

How do you copy/find your xbox save files? With the Memory Storage menu, I can find individual saves, but it gives me an error message when I try to copy them to the Memory stick saying that That Item cannot be transfered.


Once you find the character save named something like this: Name_21_Infiltrator_280210 you want to drag it from your storage device to your desktop. If you cannot do this then watch this video on how to fix it:

I guess I'm SOL on this issue. I am a Mac girl, so trying to mod my console stuff is probably not an option for me. Bummer. :/

By the way, it's good to see you again Darth Trethon, I guess we haven't been 'running in the same circles' lately.

Just found this video too
YouTube - how to mod mass effect 2 xbox 360


I don't like that video. He's going too fast and clicks around too much....way beyond uneccessary...and he uses .rar files which I personally don't like dealing with. At any rate I found it hard to keep track of what he was clicking on, where he was going and what he was doing most of the time.

I haven't been as active lately....barely posting a few times a day here and there and then I was mostly sticking to the Mass Effect forums.

If you find a way to do this with a USB storage, can you post it? I don't have a Transfer Cable. btw: if one was to buy one, where and what's a good brand?

I don't post that much either, and only in Mass Effect forums. Somehow in the switch to the new board system I lost my old Siansonea (without the II) username. I was bummed. It's nice to see someone from 'the old days' though. :)

I don't have any disposable USB on hand to configure for my 360. At the moment I just have a 1 GB USB I use for my school work but I'd be dead if I used that. I'll have to see if I can get to buying one by the end of the week.

Yep same here. Haven't seen any of the ones from the old times lately either.

Hmm.... would it be too much trouble to ask you to back up your USB data to your computer and then configure it? You could always format it and then recopy the data, but :P that's a lot of extra work.

Thanks a lot for writing the guide. Guess I might have to buy a transfer cable.

Hold off on that. I just remembered that somewhere around all my junk there should be another USB I haven't used in ages. Let me see if I can find it.

Nice guide. It would be even better if someone could tell how to mod using USB storage.

Also, is there a way to mod your ME1 save, so you can change your gender, decisions, love interest, etc...and then import that save to ME2?
Or is there a way to change all that ME1 stuff in your new (imported or not imported) ME2 save?

Yes but modding with your HD gets anoying after a while because you have to exit the game, shut off your console, mod and then boot it all up again. With a MC or USB you can just create a save, paus your game with your controller's big X button, mod it and then just load the save you just modded in minutes without the extra hassle.

How to use Xtaf Usb Xplorer:
1. Insert USB drive into XBox, format, then move one (1) ME2 save from your HDD or Memory Unit to the USB drive.
2. Download Xtaf Usb Xplorer from here: http://halo.gruntmod...elease_Gui_.rar
3. Unzip the .rar and open the program. If it asks you to update, feel free to not update.
4. Go to "File," then click "Open Device."
5. Click "{dir}content" and then the next 4 entries until you come across a file named like this: (Shep's first name)_(random? number)_(class)_(dd/mm/yy of the save). Ex.: John_12_Soldier_050210.
6. Select the file and hit "Extract." Remember to back up this file somewhere other than the location where you extracted the save to.
7. From here, proceed to steps 4 through 11 of Darth_Trethon's mod guide.
8. In Xtaf, delete the save you put on the USB, then hit "Inject" and find your modded save.
9. Once you are done injecting the save, close Xtaf and hook up the USB drive to the Xbox. Transfer the modded save to the HDD or MU and start playing ME2.

There are none. I suggest getting IZArc to deal with rars.

Here's a Zip download of the USB xplorer thing for those who like me have an undying hatred of .rar files: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WQAA30QH beyond that his instructions are good.

Have never had the need/desire to mod any single player games before. However, some of the decisions that were not properly ported over from ME1 to ME2 I would like to change (Such as the Sirta Foundation) is that kind of modding possible with this technique or is that still a pc modding only option?

You can change ME1 decisions as long as you do it before you leave the tutorial level, at least that's what I think. The note in the save editor is kinda vague about that.

So I have that USB XPlorer program, but anyways, back when I have my USB plugged into my XBOX and I'm at the Memory Management Screen, and I go to Games> ME2 I only see game saves and DLC< and when I try to copy the Game Saves it says that that file cannot be copied. Does anyone else encounter this?

You can't copy the saves. You have to move them to the USB drive, then move them back once you're done modding.

Ok, thanks a lot :) I'll try it now
