Disk Swapper v1.1 DashLaunch Plugin
Posted by XanTium | April 9 16:53 EST | News Category: Xbox360

(IMG:http://www.burstnet.com/cgi-bin/ads/ad9520b.cgi/ns/v=2.1S/sz=300x250A/

c0z released a new version of his Disk Swapper plugin for DashLaunch. This new version is now also comptable with the 12625 dashboard, which is useful since the 12625-rebooter came out for homebrew 360s:

Quote

Multidisk game switcher
This plugin is not hard coded to require any specific version of dash (fixed in this release) or for any specific game.

What it does:
If you have games with more than one disk installed on your machine, this plugin takes care of switching from one disk to the other (once you set up the multi.ini file, the plugin, and dash launch of course) ingame.

v1.1
- fixes export table lookup to be versionless

You're missing the other Magnacarta 2 (the PAL and NTSC releases have different IDs) along with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Ultimate Sith Edition and Mass Effect 2 (which has an issue with v1.1).

I imagine it would take someone with a devkit very little time to knock up a quick program to scan through the HDD/ USB and create a multi.ini for all the games.

At the moment i'm having to resort to using a batch file on a Samba'd drive, and even then it only works for GODs.

Cheers tk_saturn, PAL MagnaCarta II is in there already

I just went to www.abgx360.net and did a search for disc as it also has the game IDs. When ISO2GOD creates it's files, you can just use a batch file to count the 44KB files, and when there's 2 or more the earlier file always seems to be disc 1. You can use SFK to get the game names from the 44KB file.

It's surprising just how few multi disc games there are.

http://360.kingla.com is a great resource too. I do use ISO2GOD, but you kinda lost me with the batch file/44KB files, and I have no idea what SFK is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Will this plugin allow you to go back and forth between discs?

Example: Castlevania LoS map loading may involve reading from disc 1 or 2 depending on the area you choose to play.

Will it work asking for disc 2 from disc one only? or will it also swap back to disc 1 when running disc 2 if asked?

Thanks.

question..

disk2 = Hdd:\Games\Star Ocean The Last Hope\Disc 2\
disk3 = Hdd:\Games\Star Ocean The Last Hope\Disc 3\

Shouldnt it be the exact directory?

Can anyone double-check my work here?

I have ripped all three discs of L.A. Noire and converted them all using ISO2GOD. Uploaded them to the internal hard drive of my JTAG so that all three CON descriptors are in the same folder with corresponding data files in subfolders.

My multi.ini now looks like this:

; L.A. Noire
[5454086C]
disk1 = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\5454086C\00007000\D29C417A095AAB673BF5
disk2 = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\5454086C\00007000\31166B60CF4D89293E1F
disk3 = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\5454086C\00007000\0EC6A58DDE77D05848D9

I believe this should work without creating a default.xex, since that seems only to be necessary for extracted game folders. Is that correct?

I'm getting around to playing the other games to test them, but with ME2 I have a savefile right before you need to swap back to disc 1, and it's not doing anything.

CODE

[Plugins]
plugin1 = Usb:\swap.xex
plugin2 =
plugin3 =
plugin4 =
plugin5 =

I have swap.xex and multi.ini on the root of my usb stick.

When i run the dashlauch installer it just does not seem to see swap.xex and I check in flash and i don't see swap.xex in there.

So first off am i correct that when this is properly installed i should be able to browse flash and see swap.xex?

Any idea's where i am going wrong? It must be something really simple.
