First off, no need to be a prick about it. I was simply asking a question. So what exactly is the purpose of this software?
Second of all, if it doesn't do what I just asked. Why does the description say, "KrK / Team 360h released a version of ISO2GOD, a tool used to convert an Xbox 360 and Xbox 1 ISO images into Games on Demand containers, removing the need for a DVD drive in your 360"?

ISO2GOD converts the ISO into a GOD container. You can either upload the GOD files it create or ask it to upload it for you automatically via FTP and into the console HDD.

This only work on jtagged machine so with or without your DVD drive you are able to play the games off your HDD. This is why some jtaggers remove their DVD and use that space to cool down the GPU instead.

I like to keep my DVD drive though, not for games but mostly to play DVD videos from time to time.

Speaking from a strictly hypothetical perspective, isn't it possible to just open up your Xbox hard drive and plug it into your computer then put the converted GOD file onto it from there?

I realize that ISO2GOD is strictly made for JTAG'd consoles and only guaranteed to work on such, but when the last one was released I got a bit curious and put a GOD container onto my drive using just the above method. It *almost* worked. As in, I could go into the dashboard on the unmodded Xbox and select the GOD blade, and the game would appear in it briefly before disappearing and being unselectable. When I would check in the storage options, the game would be there but would give me the Corrupted Exclamation Point of Doom.

I'm mostly curious if anybody can answer me what it is in a technical sense that prevents a non JTAG'd box from playing the converted ISO->GOD container, for my own tinkering reasons.

You can transfer my your pc to a 360 hdd using a transfer cable and numerous programs to do it but it is painfully slow and very unstable, i wouldnt attempt a full game folder for the risk of crashing.
I havent tried running a GOD game on a stock 360 but for one the system wont allow the game to start without a disc in the drive and it would detect that the game is not original and not start, and if you use live you will be banned. No doubt someone will come up with a way to allow it to work.

Im sure in the near future there will be ways of doing this on a stock console

Getting the files onto your hard drive isn't the problem. The technical reason this won't work on a non-JTAGed console is because applications must be properly signed in order to execute. The signing takes place with keys which only Microsoft has access to. When you download DLC or install a GOD, those files are signed by the console, tied to the console and the profile where you originally downloaded it. That's why you can't simply move your hard drive to another console and play your DLC offline. It's the whole reason for the DLC transfer process that Microsoft allows you to access once per year. Those restrictions have been bypassed on JTAGed consoles, and the odds of ever doing this on a stock console are next to impossible.

1) bump for the greater good
2) krk, would you happen to have an update regarding:

is there any info on whether there will be an updated version of ISO2GOD or a new, similar app that will handle XGD3 .iso files?

thanks...

That's what I'd like to know too. I never had a problem with ISO2GOD and just want it to support XGD3.

It's not updated yet, but i think you can do it that way
1 : Extract 0800 iso with lastest exiso
2 : Re-Create the iso with "create iso good"
3 : Use ISO2GOD 1.3.5
4 : Enjoy

a bit discombobulated compared to the luxury of ISO2GOD, but worked like a treat.

- ran the xgd3 .iso through exiso

- fed the resulting folder through "crear iso.exe" as you linked

- ran the resulting .iso through iso2god and FSD found it and it runs fine. the game sucks, but the process works like a treat... for now.

thanks a ton for the tip, razkar!

Many thanks, wish it wasn't necessary but it is a workaround for now. Hopefully these trusty old tools will get updated at some point.

Any news? Maybe ISO2GOD devs aren't even aware of XGD3 yet.
