Gael360 can you do a little mod to your wxRipper 1.0?

I think is to easy to do.


  (SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH)

Now to enable the button to add a game on wxripper.db I need to hotswap a Video DVD with a recognized game (QUAKE 4 PAL) and then do another hotswap with another game, but I've olready make my layout file (360-DVD9.LTF) with the correct magic number, so is it possible to do a little check of the lines in the layout file and if it is your standard 360-DVD5.LTF with only 5 lines in it, the button will be disabled otherwise if it is more then 5 lines the button will be enabled.


Thanks and best programming!

Well I did a little research and I think, for the "silver" kiosk disk theme, you're offsets are off.

The offsets you see in the software are the offsets you can find in the list of the files. This list is at 0x0000D000. And yes the  offsets in this list and the real positions off the files are different, it's a very strange thing. But if you want to know more, please open a new topic or send me a PM, let's keep this one clean

PS : this soft do not makes themes, there is something like signature in the theme file

Ok, I understand what you want ! The problem is that my software need to know the magic number to read anything on the layer1, like adding a game to the database. For now wxRipper isn't reading the magic number from a layout file (.LTF) but I'll find a way to fix it

Dammit, why do a lot of the scene apps HAVE to be written using .NET, I dont mean to lay crap on you guys its just that it seems that we mac users are just left behind. I can easily compile C and C++ apps...

Currently we have something like 5-7 mac apps from the scene. Only 1 is for 360, and thats a wired controller driver, here for what its worth.

As a Linux user, I feel your pain, to a lesser extent.  The best solution I've managed to come up with is to fire up VMware and run Windows.  A few apps I've managed to coax in to running with WINE and Mono, but those didn't work well and crashed often.

edit: and why they use .net?  Laziness, mainly.  .net is good for rapid development on the Windows platform, and most of these people are Windows users, so it's only logical for them to choose it.  It's like using Xcode on OS X.

How is it laziness?  As you pointed out, it's logical, especially when providing free tools.  Keep in mind the general nature of a tool is to save time.  I believe the word you're looking for is "practical".  If he was lazy, you wouldn't see his software in the first place, because he would've never created it.

I'm not trashing the thread... just making a point.

Gael360: Thanks for taking the time to provide free software.

What a load of crap. .Net is "accessible" would be the best way of describing it. It incorporates a number of languages, namely C++, C# and VB, but also JavaScript, Xml, Python (with the right IDE's) etc... So a programmer can come from a number of backgrounds (Java in my case) and use it easily.

And it can be portable. Look up the SSCLI or the MonoDevelop project if you're playing around with .Net in Linux or OSX.

Hi,

there is non DVD9 layout file, becaus to be able to read the second layer, you need the magic number.
The file for DVD5 is here to make an ISO of the first layer, and to be able to burn it on a DVD-R.

Sorry I'm french, I can't help you in German  

Tell me what error you have, and the name of the game you try to dump.

Ok,

first can you use punctuation (Interpunktionszeichen) while writing ?

Then if you have the message 'Game not found', it's because you try to find the magic number with a game that wxRipper do not know. It do NOT means that you need to use another hotswap disc or DVD player, it's just because wxRipper do not have DOA4_NTSC in its database.

 Try with another game if you can, a game include in the current database (http://bouclier.free.fr/wxRipper.db). Then after 'find magic number', replace the knowxn game by your unknown game.

If you do not have a known game, maybe someone has RIDGE_RACER_6_NTSC and DOA4_NTSC and can help us to add DOA4_NTSC to database ?

I'm working on a new version of the software, and I hope to be able to find the magic number with every games.

Jesus I can't understand a single thing bitmaster is trying to say.  Its not your burner bit, its the fact you are trying to use DOA4 and its not entered into the database yet. Use one of the PAL games in the list.

[Gael360]

I've made an update : wxRipper-1.1beta

The first modification is a second try on 'Find magic number', which occurs when the game is unknown.
So the software can find the magic_number, even if the game is not in the database. This function is new and not totaly tested, so I'm waiting for your feedback !!!

The second modification is the possibility to parse the game with wx360 directly from the DVD, no need to make an ISO! Because wx360 need the drive letter and the magic_number, it is started by wxRipper.

The command line is 'wx360.exe [drive] [magic_number]'. For example : wx360 D: 130016

You can download wxRipper-1.1beta from here : (wx360 is include in the archive)

Remember these versions are beta versions !!!

If you try this version on an unknow game, please add it to the database and send me the update.

[jameswalter]

Great work.  How hard would it be to add in (or convert) a function for xbox1 games.  How different are the layouts (besides the offset).  I know we are all on the 360, but I like to be able to do this type of stuff to older games as well....call me strange.

Nice work Gael.
