I just got done jtag'n my xenon

got xexloader on there and already made a game play from hdd without dvd

now my next question is....

is the mame360 for retail consoles the one i want
if so where do i put my rom files on the hdd to load them

been moving files around for about 20 minutes, then decided to look for an answer
couldnt find one so now im asking for one

[FinsternIRL]

for Mame360 for retail xbox you need to put them on a usb device in root:\Emus\Mame\roms\ with the xex version you can edit the file to point to any location

how can we specify a path to our HDD? for example the same folder where mame360 is installed on the hdd (for me its Hdd1:/Content/0000000000000000/blblalba/00080000/ or something similar)...

when i specify such a path in the options.ini file mame detects no roms and just crashes... ive been using le fluffie app to read content packages to see if i can find some paths specified that will help me determine what to do... i tried relative paths (../roms/) didnt work... full paths like stated above, didnt work either... ive failed miserably so far.. not sure what to do... i found a file on GTA expansion pack that had a path like (e1:/..) but this seemed to point to the content package itself... havent tried it yet tho...

can anyone help? i would really like to put my roms on the 360 hdd... outise of the con file would be prefered but i guess inside it would be better than on USB...

don't you have to format the drive fro the 360!

correct. format in Xbox 360

if you'd want games to load from within the live container make it  rompath= game:/Roms ... you'd need a dir named Roms inside the root, throw all your roms in there, then pack it.

Let's try and build a working/not working list of roms.

Also what video setting they run on. 480i/480p/720p/1080i/1080p. I just got my xbr'ed 360. Now I need to find a 0.112 rom set.

running off a 8gb usb stick.

Still having some problems with this

got my roms to load of external usb device
but when i change my ini file to point to hdd:\emus\mame\roms
i get a big fat nothing
my paths are 100% correct

anyone wanna shed some light

any easier way of doing this

[iTry]

okay got the container built, just really dissapointed that i can only make it 4gb
i have 15gb+ of mame roms and i cant container them all

thinking of making several mame containers for specific developers, or maybe just my favorites

 i have the same prob mame just doesnt see the roms ive put the usb in the back of the xbox and front it just doesnt see it and after about 10 secs the xbox just crashes and i have to restart it ? ,can i use any rom mame rom or is there a site to get mame360 roms from whats the best site for roms

[blackwolf]

Ive also been trying to figure this out, ive tried every combination i can think of, simply cant get it to read from the hd.. perhaps the partition has to be specified in the path.. no idea how to do that though.. since there is no readme we may never know

[danked]

also tried to put the roms in Emus\Mame\roms\ didn't work.
