In Homebrew you can change it to a Games on Demand file and run it from hard drive. I don't see any other reason for it though unless you can play a game off a DVD5 but I wouldn't think there would be that much garbage on 95% of discs. I would still be using a DVD9 so there would be no point in adding the extra step.

Post by: sensi420 on February 04, 2010, 10:42:00 AM
Its not for a iso loader . But this is good if u use ISO2GOD. Since ISO2GOD doesnt "scrub" all the junk files. The combination of both apps will save u hdd space.

Post by: Tatsh on February 04, 2010, 10:56:00 AM
Good deal, but we're worse off than Wii users when it comes to burning as any ISOs generated with this scrubbed data will still need a DVD9 (not referring to JTAG users). Since it breaks stealth, of course it's unsafe on Live. Still, a much needed tool. Maybe some time we'll have a way to rebuild ISOs (like Wii has) and not break stealth.

load the ISO with "Xbox image Browser" and click "File" and then "Create Layout" there you go.
Now load this file into x360Scrub and then the iso and let it do its work

Sounds like a great app!

Quick question though, would the scrubbed iso files be significantly smaller than if the iso was extracted using Xbox image browser then ftp the contents and load straight with xexmenu?

Thanks in advance.

Someone should make a list that shows how much each game will save. For some it might be worth it but I'm guessing for most it won't matter

Tried it on Arcade unplugged vol. 1, Left 4 Dead 2 and Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution; Arcade went from 7.395MB to 3.827MB (saved 3568MB), Left 4 Dead 2 from 7.654MB to 5.422MB (saved 2343MB) and last Civilization from 7651MB to 6834MB (saved 817MB) so in total the program saved me 7228MB on my HDD. That's the size of an unscrubbed image!  jester.gif


Notes:
Developers please add .000 support! smile.gif (Although I simply renamed it to .iso and had no problems with it)
Also wave 5/6 games are being detected as Wave 4

Just load your image in xbox image browser, it'll tell you the size of the game.

Of if we already use "xbox image browser" to extract to our drives, will this save any additional space?  If so, is there a way to use this program on the extracted folders instead of the ISO?

Nope mate, don't bother. As example, Left 4 Dead 2: Normal ISO: 7.654MB, Scrubbed ISO: 5.422MB, Extracted ISO: 4.657MB
I don't really see the use in this program anymore, imo :/

I like the idea of being able to convert this stuff on my desktop, but not if it is unreliable, buggy or not as effective. of course i realize that all software needs to start at a 0.1 version, so maybe this list will give us a baseline to meet

Great Goal on the tool... some stuff needs improving.

It seems like the scrubbing is only for the game data. Video partitions aren't removed.


The only game I used this for is Ninja Blade, that wouldn't work when rebuilding the iso with Crear_IsoGood or SDK.

I like the layout implementation, this helps the files stay in the place they should be when the toc tries to access them.


I'll have to wait for future releases that will improve the scrubbing system and that don't corrupt some game data.


Cheers.

So, will this let those of us who can't homebrew our 360s burn scrubbed games to a single layer DVD (if they fit after scrubbing)? Not as useful as saving space on the HDD (with homebrew) but would save on burning more expensive DL discs.

I don't think it's possible unless you have a samsung drive flashed with xtreme 5.3 that does support single layer dvds.

Give it a shot, if you have this drive installed, if not.... oh well.

Things may improve, and you always have to keep in mind, this is homebrew, no warranties, and bugs are always expected, and from my point of view, they're welcome.

Originals are not always safe nor bug-free, but you can expect patches in no time.

So if I use this program on game .ISO's that ask to update my console with the jtag killing update, will it allow me to remove the game update requierment and play the game without upgrading my console to the jtag killing update?

My console does not have the jtag hack.. It is a stock console with the dvd hack so I can play my backups.

Is your console homebrewed?..

Mine is not.  the nxe update back in august of 2009 ( I think it was ) took away the ability to homebrew the console using the jtag port

Does no one read anymore? He said that his xbox is jtagged, that means that it is "homebrewed." Once you update you can't jtag it, but if you jtag and then update your fine.
