How do I put the mods and patches on the x-box?

You can't. It is impossible, not even through Xbox-Live. The only real patch that there is is GotY edition and that is just patching things such as Fury's damage skills as opposed to drain and adding the two expansions.

...Well... If you have a chipped X-Box, there is a method posted somewhere around here...

Yeah, but you have to have A.) A way to get them on the X-box, and b.) Don't they have to be coded exclusisvely for the X-box?

a) IIRC, the method mentioned includes instructions on how to transfer the mods to the X-Box.

To my knowledge, not many special things must be done -- the plugin certainly doesn't have to be designed with the X-Box in mind from the start. There is even a small utility avaliable at Morrowind Summit that will prepare mods for use on the X-Box.

Sadly I am one of those with an Xbox and Morrowind and the about the only legal fun you can have... is playing the game the way it is
