just a quick question... i downloaded "john woo's stranglehold"... the nfo says it is prepatched with included security files...

once extracted, i got 2 files
ccclx-sthold.iso
ccclx-sthold.dvd

is this .dvd file necessary? or can i just burn the .iso directly

i also got another file with this game "security_patches.rar"... when i extract that i get 3 files...
DMI.bin
PFI.bin
SS.bin

do i have to do anything with these files? thank in advance

No you dont,

Ulike PS2 games you do not have to patch the ISO to play the game online.

@kman1021

The easiest way to find out if the copy of the game is legit is read the comments of the torrent and see what people have to say bout it.

Thank you very much Josh but my post was wrong the right one looks like this:

Quote:

Hi I am new in this field, but I?ve read lots from the forum. Even so I can?t burn a game (overlord) I downloaded it in .rar format I did unrar and then I had 60-70 files in unrar format and I did unrar again on all-overlord01.rar. Now I have a file .iso which is around 7.5 giga and other file which is .dvd format and has 1 kb. As I read here I burned .dvd file with Imgburn 2.60 but before I setup layer break at 1913760. I have a Pioneer-111d dl burner. The burn it was finished succesfuly as Imgburn said, but when I tried the game in the XBOX units said ?open tray? so didn?t recognized the game. I tried the same procedure again but the same. I used every time only verbatim DVD+R DL 2.4X discs.
Please somebody tell me what I did wrong and maybe could help me what should I do, leaving from the .rar file or from the the .dvd and .iso files.
. My XBOX 360 was modded with xeno 360 and the drive is Hitachi.
Thank you very much for the help

So I burned the .dvd file but it happened what I said in my post.

Again thank you everybody who could help me. Have a nice weekend

though id give you a bit of a hand.

Seems the reason you may (might not be definate reason) be getting this error is the laser inside of the xbox 360 dvd drive moving too far intot he centre of the disk, so actually onto the bit of the disk that doesnt hold any data. This makes your xbox think that there is not actrually a disk in the drive. That may be the reason your getting an error.

Found this page that has a "Rubberband Method" which could help:

Josh, I still have a question. Why the originals work OK and the people who modded my XBOX tested the drive with some backo=ups what they have there and it worked. I called them today but they said can't help me and to try on forums on internet becouse they are not allowed to give infos how to backup.
Thank you again

Originals will never got the open tray error,
i dont know why not its just the way it is.

Try putting your burn games into your PC DVD Drive and see if its recognized as a DVD-ROM,
and see if you can play that video thats always on XBOX 360 game disks in windows media player or sumthing.

Ty again Josh. I tried the burn game into my PC DVD drive (not in my PC DVD burner). On my title drive appears XGD2DVD_NTSC. I checked in properties and said file system UDF and used space is 5.31M (?).
I didn't know how to check if it is recognized as DVD-ROM.
Than I tried to play the video in windows media player and after a few second intro with XBOX it appeared "to play this disc, put it in a XBOX 360 console"

I hope you could help me.TY

I usually check using xbox backup creator,

near the top of the window it'll say what type of disk is in the selected drive and how much memory its got left.

Bump....
Can someone please help me with my situation?

I have already downloaded the ISO and DVD file already for a game
I have dual layer blank DVD media and a DVD burner that burns it
However, when I click on the DVD file in CloneCD it says that it can't locate the ISO file
And when I click on the ISO file it also says it can't locate it
I have both files in the same folder, so I don't understand why it can't find it
Please help

@gamerbou

Are you using one fo the nme chips?
If you are then the game does need patching.

@dorutu

The ISO needs nothing doing to it,
You should still have a dvd file, just burn with that
or set the layerbreak manually to burn using the ISO file itself

@Lahib

Is your xbox modded?
What drive are you using?
What media are you using?

@kman1021

http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/535714#3523225

Read the first post of that thread

@RVD26

If youve downloaded the game im assuming it came in RAR format,
Try unRAR the files again.

Are the ISO and DVD files in a directory?
or have u just put them on your desktop?

JOSh765,

Both the ISO and DVD file are in a folder on my desktop
I have already unrared the files successfully
Do I really need to do it again?

@Lahib

What dvd burner are you using?

@RVD26

Try putting the files in a folder in c drive or something.

And unRARing takes all of a minute you may aswell give it a try.
