Hi all.
I have a question about the patcher. I never use Live and i have no intention of doing it, so i wont be banned.
However the console is still under warranty and if i need to send it back will M$ be able to detect the use of the patcher and consequently void the warranty?

Many thanks

I've tried using this program and converting Splinter Cell Conviction to Wave 2.
I'm running on iXtreme 1.4 and have the latest firmware which supports USB memory cards,
but everytime i try to play the game it freezes on the intro video and says disc unreadable, i'm using Verb. discs burnt at 2x...

i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, i can play recent games such as Metro 2033, BioShock2, Bad Company 2, AvP.

the waves data package is fine.

When i try the 360WavesPatcher_v.1.1_Install file i get the following error message

Echec de l'ouverture du fichier
c:\users\myusername\AppData\Local\Temp\WD_B4DF.tmp\Install.zip
L'installation est abandonee.

There WD_ part changes every time i try to do it

If anyone can point in my the right direction it would be great

im running win 7 ultimate 32bit
I keep getting the same error, Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

Maybe its a windows 7 thing?

Okay, the guide on the first page is not very clear as to how to properly install this software. It took me a while to figure it out yesterday, and I thought I'd share how to do it properly.

First of all, after you download the program, don't double click on it. Rather, right click on it and us a program like WinRar to unzip the program. When you do so, you get a folder with some files in it and also about 4 other .zip archives. Now unzip those 4 zip archives. You should then have one main folder, with a few files and then 4 subfolders also with some unzipped files.

What you have to do is drag ALL of the files from within the subfolders into the main folder so ALL of the files are in one folder together.

Then simply double click on the main program called 360wavepatcher and you'll be good to go. After it opens, click on the small UK flag at the bottom left to get the program in English.

There you go. Now someone needs to send me a prize for letting you all know how to properly install this damn thing ;-)

Glad to help. I'm actually dismayed that the OP wasn't more clear in this original post also that nobody else bothered to help people out in the previous 18 pages of this entire thread!

Yeah, the OP did edit it, but it's still not clear, IMO. He should have mentioned that ALL the files need to be in the same directory for the program to work properly.

Not sure why the files weren't just zipped in one directory to begin with!

You posted that you were having a problem on 15 May 2010 @ 18:21, i edited the first post on 21 Apr 2010 @ 13:05, that just tells me and everyone else you didn't read the post properly maybe thats why no one replied.

Actually the file used to install normally by simply double clicking it, and if you go through the thread you'll see people helping each other.
The reason the help stopped was because of the same repetitive questions over and over again.

I edited the post and posted the best way to install as soon as i heard people were having problems installing.

The way i've described it is perfectly easy to follow and there is only the select few that can't understand it.

Quote:
EDIT: For anyone having problems installing simply extract all the files to a folder then you see another packed file called __WDINST inside that file there is a folder called mes projets inside that you will find a waves patcher.exe just move it to where all of your other files are and it should run fine when you double click the 360wavespatcher.exe
It says right there to move it where the other files are, so thats the directory isn't it?

When you patch the game you remove the update. It's checking for the update, doesn't find it, and resets itself.

Did you install the latest Dashboard version?
I´m using PPF-o-Matic to patch the games and they only asked for the update once, i dl it and install trough a usb-pen, and every game works perfectly.

Yes God is punishing you. Quite appropriate seeing as though the game in question is Dante's Inferno. Poetic justice at work.

If your running old firmware and you don't patch then you wont be able to play the game.

The waves are partitions where dash/game updates are stored

I have tried using the abgx method sicman posted, as well as the program converter. I tried with Red Dead Redemption and Army of Two, 40th day. No matter what method I use, converting to wave 3, I just get the xbox symbol and the disc is read as a DVD.

Any ideas sicdude? If there is any info I should provide let me know. I do not know my firmware, but I know it plays Wave 3 games and When I tried COD MW2 back in december, it worked just fine.

I have done Red Dead and Army of Two using both the ABGX method and the wave patcher method. I even converted Army of Two to a Wave 2 game and it still only shows up as a DVD in the 360. The Wave files have downloaded within the program without a problem, and when i used the ABGX method I only used the PFI and Video files provided in the pack.

Once any of these games were inserted, they only show up as DVDs. I have put an original of Red Dead into the XBOX and updated the dashboard accordingly. Still, no dice. Wasted 6 DVDs so far, any help would be appreciated. Am I just not going to be able to do this?

Again i´m using PPF-o-Matic to patch the ISO. All of them work 100%.
Obviously doing this will get you banned as soon you connect to Live, but if that is not an issue give a try with it.

Yes. Your xbox will cease to exist and be sucked into a black hole.

Safe travels,
