Hey y’all! I have some Minecraft saves on my Xbox 360 hard drive that i would like to transfer to my pc. I have the hard drive, and a backup image of it on my computer. I tried using eXplorer360 to try and find the saves but had no luck. Has anyone had success with this in the past?

i went through the massive headache of doing this recently, and ended up finding a solution after hours of searching, the tool that's commonly suggested is "MCC tool chest" and it's awful, you can only find the most recent version via archive.org and it doesn't convert chests properly, as well as turning a lot of blocks like lilypads and seagrass into dirt

the one i found that is much, much better and properly converts worlds is called "je2be", it has a web app that takes forever to convert: https://je2be.app but it works properly, alternatively it has a microsoft store version which is pretty fast
https://www.microsoft.com/store/productid/9PC9MFX9QCXS

with this one you don't need to extract the save file with horizon/explorer 360, it'll just take the raw bin file from the USB stick and do the rest, only bug i've encountered is that it doesn't convert the worlds to infinite and will just extend the world with stone, without the borders, you'll need to edit the world with a world editor to reset the chunks outside the map boundaries, map graphics are also a bit messed up but can easily be reset by deleting the map files

it's easier to just copy the worlds to a usb stick and then insert it to a pc, it just uses fat32 and if the worlds are the only thing on the stick they're easy to find

    @Xdqwerty, People who create revival services for the Wii end up in disaster, same goes for Pretendo lol.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
