Soft Mod walk through for PAL Xbox to access resolution menus

[Gordon]

I noticed on another site that you referred to a tutorial/walkthough.

I have a PAL Xbox (not sure which version – how do I tell?) but the projector I’m using a BENQ6200 projector which has a higher natural resolution which I want to take advantage of & also avoid the blurriness caused by the scaling between resolutions. I've seen a projector with less ANSI and a lower contrast ratio but with the same natural resolution as a PAL Box and was surprised at how much clearer the picture was.

I understand that I need to soft-mod the PAL Xbox (which have the HD resolution turned off!) to NTSC before I can access the resolution menus.

Do you have a tutorial for that or can you direct me to one (one even a total noob can understand)?

I don’t have Mech Assualt but a friend has Splinter Cell. I understand that at least one of those games is required. Also, do you need to connect the Xbox to a computer, etc?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey dude,
   When it comes to soft mods I reccomend going with Ltools. It's an amazing utility which makes modding your xbox so incredibly easy. Compatible with PAL and NTSC Xbox consoles. Or if you really need a hand visit our Store at www.smdepot.net and we'll be happy to do it for you. Unfortunately I don't currently have a comprehensive tut. for Pal Xbox's, but it's in the works, like so many other things. Check out www.xbox-scene.com for tonz and tonz of tutorials about everything Xbox. Sorry for the delayed response btw.

hello,
 firstly im certain that i know alot less than u (o great one) about softmodding, but ltools? is that not gettin abit outdated? (full respect out to ldots tho). Although it has slightly different aims, i have been told to use krayzies UXE installer. . .
 Can u tell me y u use ltools over krayzies so that i can make a informed decision b4 i mod mine (2moro!! depending on plays delivery...)

Thanks in advance + nice site peeps

This is my Opinion, If it Aint Broke'Dont fix it.

LTools works great and has little to no known problems. Also, If you are new to Softmod, take baby steps, if you feel Comfrtoble doing it but want help, IM me of SMDepot on AIM and we will be glad to help, do fell good? Take it to the Store and have SM do it it profesionly.

Krayzies Auto Installer is Awesome! don't get me wrong. I like ltools though.. personal preference I guess, also I've always been able to fix it if something goes wrong... so alot of my advice will be twards that. I'll probably continue to use it mostly... But we're more than happy to try to help with any means of Soft Modding. As always, my first recomendation is to visit my online store But apart from that...

Any questions you have... let us know. It's why I made this site.

I myself have written a few tutorials, used both ltools and krazyie's autoinstaller.

Both work fine, although the Krayzie's has a better GUI and just looks better, both have the same power and can do much of the same thing.

All Softmods are universal, i do not believe their is really any difference in using Krayzie's to using Itools, as to which to use with NTSC (USA) and PAL (UK)

I am getting ready to write, although at this point i'll transfer over a previous written one for using Krayzie's Autoinstaller 2.7
