Disc Burning Guide

Postby gamfrkI » Thu Jan 20, 2011 10:41 pm

  1. Download imgburn
  2. download your game (ps2,gnc,& xbox are in my sig)
  3. burn
    • Wii at 2.4x speed
    • PS2 at 4x speed
    • GCN at 1x speed
    • XBox at 4x speed
  4. DONE

*theses are the maximum speeds and can be set to lower burning speeds*

Multi Game Disc

Gamecube

you will need a blank dvd,some gcn iso,and MultiGame ISO Creator

*this will also work on a softmodded wii*

start up MultiGameISOCreator.exe

Image

choose your region from the drop down menu in the top right

Image

click the Add ISO button and select a game you wish to put on the compilation

Image

Image

make sure your game is compatible with the backup launcher your using here

make sure your games are playable on a multi disc here


after all the games have been added hit the Create MultiGame ISO button

Image

next choose where to save your image

Image

then it displays a progress bar while you wait for your image to be done

Image

burn it and you're done
f your wii is chipped just load the disc as normal you will be created with a CGOS menu where you select your game
if your wii is using the backup loader just launch it like you would any gamecube game and use right and left on the d-pad to change game

tips for making your disc image as efficient as possible

in the bottom left hand corner it tells you how big your final image will be in bytes
use this to make sure you don't make an image too big for the disc it will be going on

checking the shrink box next to each game will remove the dummy data from it when it is placed on the multidisc
make sure your game is compatible with this before doing so (also in the compatibility list)

XBox

download C Xbox Tool

open c xbox

click MenuX Multigame

Image

now what you need to decide on is what XBOX ISOs you want to have on 1 DVD-R disc
there is no limit to how many XBOX ISOs you can have on the disc, the only limit is how much data you can have on 1 disc
so as long as you stay under the limit of 4.3GB you can add as many games as you please

to add games its as simple as draging and dropping your XBOX ISOs one by one into the big window/box

once youve decided on what games you want on your DVD-R its time to join them together as one ISO file
to do so all you have to do is click Create ISO Image at the bottom

you will now be asked what you want to name your file and where you want to save it

Image

cick the folder icon to decide where you want the newly created Multi-ISO to go
save it wherever you want as long as you remember you put it there
as for naming it name it whatever you like
it makes no difference in what it's named

all you have to do now is burn it as you usually would burn an ISO image

Converting PS2 CD Games to DVD (for ESR)

first of all download a game from here extract it etc until you are left with the bin/iso etc
OR
if you are ripping your own game use IMGBURN and select create image file FROM disc the slower you do it the better

Image

Image

download CDmage

open CDmage up

Image

go to File and select open locate you ISO file or .Bin file

right click track 1 and select Data track properties and take note of this info

Image

(you will need this for later on so make sure you take a screenshot or type it into notepad)

select all files and right click then select Extract Files to a new folder on your desktop

Image

Download DVD Scan Lite 3.7 from here

open it and MAKE SURE you select DVD

Image

now just go into the folder which you put all those files into (from that CDmage program) and Select ALL files

if you see this screen just select No do not select folders scan files only than go inside any folder and repeat the procedure

Image

after this is done you should see information like this

Image

time to use/create the Dummy File

a Dummy file is necessary for this conversion to work
the image must be at least 1.4 gigs for it to boot up with ESR hence this is why we must create a dummy file

download dummy data here or make 1 yourself

just remember to uncompress this file (you will get a folder and inside it a file do not extract that file)

if you want to take it the hard way this is how to create a dummy file

go to command prompt

type

fsutil file createnew c:\z.z 1073741824

(c:\ is your harddrive root folder) you may change this directory to where ever you'd like
you probably noticed that 1073741824 is a huge number, that's how many BYTES are in a Gigabyte (aprox)
(I would actually make it to around 1.4 which is 1503238553 )

put this dummy File into the folder which contains your files from the CD you ripped

time to make a CD image (prefferably ISO)

select Create image from files/folders

Image

youll get this screen now

Image

select the folder which all the files are in

remember the information of that cd you wrote down or took a screen shot of

your gonna need it for this part

select an output folder and then select build

now to patch the game

download ESR Patcher

select patch then locate your iso that you made then select open

if successful you should get the follow screen

Image

after that burn and play

To be honest, its recommended to burn every disk at the lowest possible speed to reduce the number of possible errors that could occur.

these are the maximum speed to burn them at (so they work) so anything from the max and lower is ok
