Possibly To Write Dvd2xbox Type Script?
« on: January 28, 2006, 09:31:00 AM »

I don't know anything about python programming, or script writing, I was just wondering how hard would it be to make a script that would copy an xbox game to the hdd, kinda like dvd2xbox.

I wouldn't imagine it'd be too hard.

It would just be copying the files off of the DVD and putting them into a specific folder.

Thats what I thought it should be pretty easy, i'll do some research on Python and talk to some guys i know about it and see what i can come up with it. If anyone would like to help let me know.

Is ACL processing really necessary though? When I ftp a game to my xbox there isn't any acl processing going on and the games work fine.

it is only neccessary on games where it is neccessary. For example, The Hulk Ultimate Destruction requires a patch to be played from the harddisk. how will you accomplish such patching through Python?

Its also needed for people with really old modchips and bios that need the media flags patched
