I have an xkey installed and it works great. However, I have downloaded several games that are not in an iso format, they are in an extracted iso format.

So I have the files and various directories. However, when I try and turn it into an iso using imgburn or
winrar xkey doesnt recognize it.

How can I fix this

thanks

Is there no way I can make them a working iso? I have the files. I just need the last bit to make it an iso. God2iso was recommended but does not work with extracted files.

god files are for jtag/rgh usage only, the Xkey needs a full ISO file....not a rebuild or anything like that....the original ISO dump of a game

i really do wish the xkey could have a "shrunk" iso of sorts :(

was the first thing i checked into when i got mine but sadly not an option. so much space is wasted but still i think the best option for online enabled machines.

360 ISO's contain anti piracy tables on the disc as well as video partitions and other things not related to gamefiles but are related to authentication.
One can't simply snip away that data on non hacked machines unfortunately.

Besides, Harddisks are cheap these days, and 2 TB can hold ~200 games.
I dun think people are really playing 200 games at the same time.
Except for hoarders ofcourse.

I agree, 2TB is plenty for 360 games.

About to get 4TB at tax refund time for the PS3 on the other hand. Them games get BIG. CoD on PS3 is like 20+GBs compared to Xbox 360 which is 8-16GBs at most.

2TB should also be plenty for PS3 games imho.
I'm planning on upgrading both me PS3 and 360 to 1TB somewhere in the future (CFW and RGH)

I'm running out of space on both of them, seeing more and more beta builds of games are being released.

It is space for quite a few games, but now I'm in a spot where I can't grab new games that come out unless I remove one or two games. I prefer to have about 30-40 GBs left over space on my drive at all times.

    Technically, cryptocurrencies aren't illegal, as long as you don't use it for criminal activity. If you sign up with an exchange, and that they get a tip from law enforcement, they have the right to freeze your assets.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, Yea I heard law is vastly different there
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Nigeria's central bank did make crypto illegal before, until last year they lifted the ban. Always make sure to check before you exchange. ;)

    @SylverReZ, speaking of crypto i remember reading about a guy who spend like 10 grand bitcoin on a couple pizzas (when bitcoin wasnt as worthy as nowadays)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's mental. If he had saved up when Bitcoin sky-rocketed in price, then he might've become the next Jeff Bezos for all I know.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, he couldnt know the price was gonna skyrocket anyway
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Then it dropped sometime in 2022, 2021 was when it really went up in price.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, I also recall watching a video of some failed games with their own crypto currency or smth like that, lemme link it to you (it's in spanish tho)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I remember that. Didn't Steam ban games with NFTs before somehow devs managed to circumvent it? Think EA tried to dabble in NFTs too.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Glad to hear people realise that NFTs aren't worth it these days. They realise that they're JPEGs hosted on a file-hosting site like AWS or Google Drive.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Atleast it has captions
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Meta also tried to create their own crypto, but that fell through.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Was called Libra, they had around 100 employees and wanted to hire more near to end of the year.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, idk why facebook tried to do that metaverse thing if mmo games already existed before
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And Yea I refuse to call it meta
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I refuse to call it Meta, too. It's a stupid name.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, then why did you call it like that a minute ago?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't get why Facebook ever wanted to dabble into virtual reality, when other companies were doing it.
