Title: Making A Newly Uploaded Game Appear (and Work) From The Games Menu
Post by: Xombe on January 30, 2007, 12:37:00 AM
Just need to make some edits...

Depends on how you're creating your backups.  Tell us how and we can tell you how to arrange your menu config.

You will need to make the appropriate folders under the Games directory on the F drive.

Just FTP your Evox.ini file to the PC. Edit it with notepad or another text editor. With FlashFXP you can right click on the file and select edit without copying it to the PC first.

Make sure you have backed up your files to the PC. FTP the C and E drives to the PC.

If you want, I can post my entire evox.ini file. You just select all, copy and paste it into notepad and save as evox.ini. Rename your old one on the Xbox to evox.old and FTP the new one over. Play with it to see if you like the structure.

You may have to change a few things, like the name of your MS Dash. Mine is C:\msdash.xbe and yours may be c:\xboxdash.xbe. Different mods name it differently.

Read the pinned topics at the top of the Evox section. There are some good tutorials on getting you familiar with the evox.ini file.

There are just some games that won't run from the HD. The only thing I can say is try cleaning the disk and try it again.
