Multi-disc Games With Xexmenu
« Reply #30 on: February 05, 2010, 06:45:00 PM »

I'm trying to get Forza 3 working. The second disc, if browsed with wxPirs has a \Content\ folder, which I assumed could be copied to HDD, and then maybe unlocked through XM360, but no luck. It doesn't even show up in XM360. The second disc is meant to be installed onto the hard drive, adding the extra tracks and cars. Anyone have any ideas? Copying it into the same folder as the first disc doesn't work either.

What I did with Forza 3 was installed disc two from within the the game as you normally would. You have to run the main game from the DVD and not the HDD though, otherwise disc two wont install. Once you have installed disc two you can run the game from the HDD and it works fine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

So, to clarify:

1. Run Forza 3 from DVD.
2. Choose 'install disc two' from the menu.
3. Exit game once disc two is installed.

You can then run Forza 3 from the HDD (assuming you already have it on your HDD of course) with the content from the second DVD installed.

So I copied both discs of ME2 into the same folder, created an ISO, and used ISO2GOD to convert that into a Games on Demand folder, and upon running it on the 360 it said that it couldn't be launched, or something along those lines... just for anyone thinking of attempting it.

I should also point out that it appears to be working fine from XexMenu.

Halo 3 ODST disc 1 is story mode only. Disc 2 is Halo 3 multiplayer only. Rip them to separate folders.

However, I don't see why you would need the multiplayer disc unless you plan on playing a lot of LAN games.

For ME2 it made a difference for me when I replaced disc one files with disc two's.  This caused it to freeze at character import 100% of the time.  So from my experience disc one files can't be overwritten by disc two's for the game to work correctly.

I didn't even bother trying to run the GoD that was generated when I tried this, as clearly something had been taken out that shouldn't have been - the total size of the GoD was only 6.6 gigs. lol, if the game could be made that small, it'd be a single disc game!

Never checked the size, but yeah that'd do it.

Cerise says you can not copy blue dragon disc to a folder and get it to run. But that's just nonsense. I have played in throughout the blue dragon and it works just fine ... the version I made was 11.6 gb instead of 19gb ..

it behaves as if it should have been 3 disc. When you are finished with a disk pop-up "will you save before you insert the next disk". then continue playing after you have saved or chosen not to save.

When you were copying disc 2 and 3, did you overwrite files or keep files with the same name?

Maybe you chose one option, and Cerise chose the other and that's the discrepancy?
