+description: Install the CoD Xe plugin on Xbox 360 or Xenia.
+---
+
+import { LinkButton, FileTree, Aside } from "@astrojs/starlight/components";
+
+CoD Xe is the plugin that loads CoD Xenon mods on Xbox 360 and Xenia.
+
+Follow this page once, then return to the game-specific guide for the title
+update and mod files.
+
+## What You Need
+
+- An Xbox 360 that can run unsigned code: **XDK**, **RGH**, **JTAG**, or
+  **BadUpdate**
+- Or **Xenia Canary Netplay** on Windows
+- A supported game extracted to a normal folder
+
+<Aside type="caution" title="Use game-specific title updates">
+  CoD Xe requires the correct title update for each game. Install the title
+  update listed in the guide you are following.
+</Aside>
+
+## Xbox 360
+
+Download the standalone plugin:
+
+<LinkButton
+  href="https://github.com/michaeloliverx/codxe/releases/latest/download/codxe.xex"
+  download
+  icon="download"
+>
+  Download **CoD Xe**
+</LinkButton>
+
+Set `codxe.xex` as a [DashLaunch](https://consolemods.org/wiki/Xbox_360:DashLaunch) plugin.
+
+Your plugin setup should look similar to this:
+
+![dashlaunch](../../../assets/botwarfare/dashlaunch_plugins.webp)
+
+After saving your DashLaunch settings, reboot the console.
+
+## Xenia
+
+Use this path when running CoD Xe through Xenia instead of Xbox 360 hardware.
+
+Download Xenia Canary Netplay:
+
+<LinkButton
+  href="https://github.com/AdrianCassar/xenia-canary/releases/latest"
+  icon="download"
+>
+  Download **Xenia Canary Netplay**
+</LinkButton>
+
+### Enable Plugins
+
+Open Xenia once so it creates the config file beside the executable:
+
+<FileTree>
+
+- `Xenia Canary Netplay`
+  - xenia_canary_netplay.exe
+  - **xenia-canary-netplay.config.toml**
+
+</FileTree>
+
+Close Xenia, open the config file, and change these values:
+
+```diff lang="toml"
+- allow_plugins = false
++ allow_plugins = true
+
+- allow_game_relative_writes = false
++ allow_game_relative_writes = true
+```
+
+<Aside type="caution" title="Close Xenia before editing">
+  Close Xenia before changing the config file. If you edit the config while
+  Xenia is open, the change will **not save**.
+</Aside>
+
+### Copy Files
+
+Download the latest CoD Xe release `.zip`. Do not use the standalone
+`codxe.xex` download for Xenia. The `.zip` contains additional Xenia files that
+Xbox 360 hardware users do not need.
+
+<LinkButton
+  href="https://github.com/michaeloliverx/codxe/releases/latest"
+  icon="download"
+>
+  Download **CoD Xe release zip**
+</LinkButton>
+
+After extracting the CoD Xe `.zip`, the folder should look similar to this:
+
+<FileTree>
+
+- codxe
+  - iw3/
+  - t4/
+  - xenia
+    - patches/
+    - plugins/
+  - ...
+
+</FileTree>
+
+Copy the contents of the extracted `codxe` folder's `xenia` folder into the
+same folder as `xenia_canary_netplay.exe`.
+
+When copied correctly, your Xenia folder should look similar to this:
+
+<FileTree>
+
+- `Xenia Canary Netplay`
+  - patches/
+  - plugins/
+  - xenia_canary_netplay.exe
+  - xenia-canary-netplay.config.toml
+
+</FileTree>
+
+### Next Step
+
+Install the title update required by the game guide you are following, then boot
+the game's multiplayer `.xex`.
