Hi, on my computer I have a folder that contains an NTSC Xbox game that is 3.88GB in size(size on disc is 4,168,396,800 bytes). Showm inside the folder are an NFO file, an .sfv file and 82 .rar files, each .rar file is 47.6MB in size. There is also one .rar file titled px.oddw.rar. The other .rar's are the same except for the fact that they are numbered consecutively from .r00 up to .r82. Only the files numbred from .r00 to .r29 show as a WinRAR icon (3books stacked), the remainder show as a dog eared sheet of paper( dunno the correct term for the icon). I right click the .r00 file and choose to extract to the same folder and an .iso image is created from all of the 82 .rar files. The .iso shows the ,rar's unpacked size as being 4.17GB(4,373,696KB) I have tried using VLC to open the .iso in my computer and it won't oblige. I've also burned the .iso Image File to DVD5-RW and it freezes the com when I try to open the disc to play the game. The game is an Xbox game so it MOST probably isnt going to play on my computer. I have read the threads about backink-up Xbox games and I am aware of the setting up of a network to FTP from XBox to HDD to enable the making of a backup copy of a game. As I have the backup copy in .iso Image file format both on HDD and optical media disc, what do I have to do now to play the game using my computer?? No can be done? I have to buy, beg, borrow, spiel an XBox machine?? Most importantly, will this backup that I have created actually play in an XBox? From what I've read about the way in which the games are originally packaged on optical discs, is nothing like the methods used to create commercial CD's or DVD's. And the XBox laser reads the optical media disc inwards from the outer edge of the disc towards the inner circle. CD and DVD RW devices do the opposite.
Somehow ( me pushing the wrong button in the right place)This thread of mine has ended up in the Let off Steam section. Can a MOd or someone else with the Power to do, move this thread to the XBOX-General Discussion section of the Forums. Cheers. This should be an edit but I don't know how to do that and can't find any info on how to do it either. Someone tell me how to do or where the instructions can be found, pleas.
well DUH.. it's an xbox game... I don't know of any working emulators for that console.. do you? Get the right console, then mod it in a way that allows you to play this lump of piracy .. hehehehehe XD
cheers varnull. I got a better Idea. let the pirate go so we can keep ourselves in a job searching for him and make the looty-booty walk the plank. ha ha unless someone knows if this bit of booty will play in an xbox? nothing can save it from Davy Jones Locker, The Oddesey is over....... !! Munch Overboard !!
