call me a simpleton but i dont get the xmlconfig bit at all.

im from the uk so would the locale be en-UK or have i to stick with with en-US.

and the next part about the path is way beyond my understanding.

i have an external 1tb with emulators, games on it then rest of my content is on my 120gb (arcade and dlc).

any help or an edited xmlconfig would be a lot of help!

hate being the 1st idiot.

ok not to worry so the first thing is your location put " en-UK " in there because you are from the UK and the second thing with the <path> where ever your games are located on the harddrive you simply have to direct fsd to them and example would be <path>hdd1:\content\0000000000000000</path> or another which is like mine is <path>hdd1:\games</path> or if its on a usb the <path>usb1:\games</path>. hope that helps

I feel like an idiot too, I can't even get the XML file to open!

Gives me this error whatever program I try to open it with:

'Missing equals sign between attribute and attribute value. Error processing resource 'file:///F:/fsd2config.xml'. Line 13,...

 <Music Path='' MUST be in GAME:\ />'
---------------------^

Edit: Ugh definitely being an idiot. Just needed to use Notepad.

ta for the help, but do i delete all the stuffs in between
                 <paths>
      
   </paths> and then add what you are suggesting?

plus do i add one for the emulators folder on the usb drive?


<paths>
<path> hdd1:\content\0000000000000000</path>
<path>usb0:\games</path
<path>usb0:\emulators</path>
</paths>

is that it?
my chance to help with the opening bit, right click on the config xml and open with notepad.

Hi guys I cant seam to get the indexing working at all. I have kept my hdd simple just 1 extracted game (GTA 4) in hdd1:\games and then 2 xbox live arcade games. They show up fine but do not indext and pull down cover art etc.

my config is (I tried en-UK as well).

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config>
   <locale>en-US</locale>
   <paths>
      <path retail='360' devkit='360'>hdd1:\games</path>
      <path retail='360' devkit='360'>hdd1:\Content\0000000000000000</path>
   </paths>
   <feeds>
   </feeds>
   <skin>Default.xzp</skin>
   <Music Path='' MUST be in GAME:\ />
   <DVDCopy 360Path='' OrigPath=''/>
   <weather location='undefined' />
   <display horizoverscan='0' vertoverscan='0' horizdisplacement='0' vertdisplacement='0'/>
   <ftp xboxip='0.0.0.0' port='21' username='xbox' password='xbox' />
   <gamelistopt background='1' preview='1' semitransparent='0' covers='0' />
   <mainscreenopt tempstatus='1' diskstatus='1' celsius='1' parent='0' showip='1' showstatus='1' showavatar='1' />
   <moreoptions fanspeed='40' ledformat='0' />
   <timeformat time='0' date='0' ntponstartup='1' />
   <autoupdater ondash='1' onskin='1' onplugin='0' onbeta='1' installer='0' />
   <Version XEX='0' />
</config>

I cleared game data and restarted and still got the same, anyone have any ideas why its not working?
