Hi Guys, I only recently started using my xbox again after about 3 years (we had a baby) and I feel like I am brand new to everything.....
I flashed my old benq drive with iXtreme 1.4 (as far as I can remember) and I have some burned games that are working fine (GTA4, battlefield bad company, COD3).
Yesterday I burned Dead Island riptide and the walking dead isolation but when I put the disks in I get 'play DVD'..... The dead island is wave 2 (iMars non wave 3 layer break release). Im using the same verbatim DL disks as before, same burner, same sw.....
After a bit of research I was bombarded with wave 3/4, activate.iso, wave patching, iXtreme 1.6 etc etc. Im not sure what to do....
I read if I upgrade to iXtreme 1.6 my old games wont work, activate.iso will work with 1.4 but I read elsewhere it wont. I read about wave patching the games too, I have a fairly old dashboard and read that if I upgrade the newer one will flash my drive to stock..... Im very confused.....
The console is banned so Im not worried about online play, I just want to get the games working so any advice is much appreciated. If I can get away without reflashing the drive Id be very happy.
Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.
