They are dumped from a modded xbox.
I dont get it.
I DO get it, that XDVD files are being dumped through some mod software on the console. But are they being dumped to a PC? I got this ISO right here, and i got no clue what to do with it.
A) WinRar cannot open the archive (as written before in this thread)
B) Cannot be read by windows (Daemon tools). Now here is the tricky question. If xbox dvd files are being transfered to a PC, and then made an ISO of ON A PC, shouldt the result be a windows readable DVD iso?
I think im lost when it comes to using Cxbx or Xeon. Since they run on Windows platform, request .xbe files. But im assuming that default.xbe is inside that ISO? Well, thats nice, since it cannot be read or opened or whatever.
Can someone sort me out here?
Thanks.

Hi
I'm one of the biggest newbies you will meet in emulating, though ive had a brainwave and i want to know if its possible to do this:
Why doesnt someone create or even modify a PC DVD drive so it can read Xbox files and convert them into a format that the computer will read? I'm sure it cant be THAT hard to create a DVD Drive like that. We then wont need emulating software, we can just let the hardware do it. If theres a flaw in the idea, let me know.![]()
Yes there is a working emulator, sadly it only runs one game , Halo.
I know this topic is old (including the post you just replied to), but Xeon won't even play halo past the first level. Cxbx has much more functionality.
Most Xbox games can't be read by your computer. It doesnt matter if you have a DVD-ROM or DVD-RW or what, it more then likely wont work. Why? Because computers like .exe files while Xboxes want .xbe files. They work in the same way. default.xbe is what causes an Xbox game/CD to boot and is the main set of instructions for the game/CD. default.xbe basically tells the Xbox what to do, when to do it and what other files on the disc to use. Unfortunately, Xbox emulators dont read these files and neither do computers. So you need an ISO file.

Xbox DVDs are formatted differently than a standard DVD. The PC doesn't care about the whole .xbe /.exe thing. An Xbox DVD is read backwards (outside to inside) to prevent a standard PC drive from reading it.
