Well, from your computer via ftp to the xbox, find your emulator in the root directory, i.e. F://APPS/Emulators/Surreal64/Roms. There are other places it may be depending on where you placed the emulator on your xbox, but that is the most general area. once you get there from your computer, you can view the files of rom that you have and ftp more roms as you see fit. alos, if you do place roms in that folder and the roms do not load when you start the emulator, then try clicking on the lower right hand icon to refresh your list. If that doesn't work, then try erasing your ae64 folder as I mentioned from the previous first posting. Doing so resets the emulator settings, but make sure all your paths are correct in your .ini files. Good luck. Gryph

Alright, ive read through this whole thread and tried to get it to help me fix my problem but it hasnt really been able to help because I seem to be a couple steps behind everyone. I bought this Xbox off someone and it is modded and came with all the Emulators on it. So, I dont have the emulators on my computer or anything like that. I seem to have the same problem most people are having: my Roms wont load when I open Surreal64. I tried refreshing and stuff but that didnt work. My directory is broken down as: F:/Emu/Surrel 64/Roms. Im not too good at this stuff but ive come to the conclussion I cant open the .ini files on the Xbox itsself, so I have to open it on my computer? I tried doing what the person a couple posts above suggested and deleting the folder a64fea57 from my E/TDATA folder but it wouldnt let me delete it. Can anyone help me from here? Do I need to have the rom on my computer to edit the file? Im extremely confused and not very good at this technical stuff. Keep in mind that I got the Xbox with everything already on it so im even more lost because of this. Any help would be really appreciated.

You can only open your .ini files on your computer. Once you make the adjustments, you just simply copy and paste the file back into the folder it came from and say yes to replacing existing file. Anyways, I've never had any problems deleting the mentioned fea64 folder from the location. You have to access this folder from you computer through an FTP.

that's not necessarily true. unleashx has a built in text editor that you can edit from there.

So how exactly do I use this FTP program to access the files? Like I said.. when I got the Xbox everything was already equipped so I dont really know how to do any of this stuff. Do I have to copy the program to a disc and put on the Xbox, or what? Sorry if I sound like a newbie here but that is exactly what I am haha.

Sorry, I guess I'm not up to date as far as the new software and stuff. But from my experiences I've had to open the .ini files from the computer. Anyways, to FTP to the xbox, you need to make sure you know the username i.e (xbox) and the password to the xbox which usually default is xbox. So to make things short it would be something along the lines of ftp://xbox:xbox@(ip address that the xbox gives you). That's just an example, you can do this through the internet browser or you can set this up through you network connections. Whatever you do, keep an original copy of whatever you're editing some place safe incase you mess up.

I don't ever remember there being an .xbe file attatched to run surreal64. As far as I know, you need to open up that .rar file and extract them before you run the emulator on the xbox. As for finding a place to download the files, we are not allowed to say where. Keep looking, and you'll find it out there somewhere. Good luck, Gryph.

For extracting the file u can use WinRAR it will open the folder and look for the XBE. file inside..u can FTP the emulators to E:\Emulators\
or burn a DVD+R and add them from the disk to your xbox for the disk options all's u need is Nero and a blanck DVD+R or DVD-R

I've never tried burning the roms to a disc before, but I think you should try to FTP your roms to the surreal64 roms folder so they can be read. I don't know if your xbox is modded or not, but from the way it sounds, you have. Anyways, I've posted in the thread how to install your surreal64 emulator and fix it so that it works properly. As for burning the roms, I don't think the .ini file recognizes your dvd rom drive as the default or recognized path for your roms to start when you load up the emulator. If you want to do it that way, I think you would have to edit your .ini file and your ultrahle.ini file to make it work. Remember, from what I saw, there should be 2 .ini files in your surreal64 path. There's one in your F:/Apps/surreal64/ folder and there should also be one in your E:/tdata or udata folder under fea64 something. Anyways, they should both look the same, so if you modify one, you have to replace the other one as well, simply copy and paste to both.

I'm guessing the software you used to mod your xbox did not come with the emulator software. I don't know where you got the surreal64 emu from, but you need to get one that works. If all goes well, you should get a blue screen dashboard with a toadstool guy. If that shows up it's somewhat working. Follow my other previous postings to find out how to make it work right.

If you can't get it to work can always download Auto.Installer.Deluxe.v3.10.Xbox-Hq from a torrent site. It'll install Surreal and pretty much whatever else you want to your Xbox for you..

I have a disk that loads and works the same as surreal 64 but only on my xbox it does not show the roms. On another xbox it just played the roms off the disk. Is there a way to set my xbox so that i could just play the roms off the disk and if so could someone explan how to do so.

Beats me... Maybe you have to edit your ini file so that it reads the D: drive.

I've never been able to, but I'm sure there's a software update or program that would allow you to do that. But if you can't edit it otherwise, I'd stick with FTP.

Good! I've never used burned discs for playing roms since it's all in my roms folder, the path directory for my ini files are the same. I don't know why, but it is. At least you got the problem figured out.
