have been trying to make a disk with n64 games on for my xbox but with no luck got a few emulators and im using doctor64 roms, are the roms incompatible with the emulators or is there some specific way of writing the disk

ive got

ultraxle-v1_0b
surreal64_v1.0
pj-64-x.v0.70
daedalusx0.10

must be the way im writing the disk as the xbox doesnt even recognise it, even when i go tocopy to HD it says the disk size is 0mb

Steve - Are you creating an xISO file first (not a normal ISO) ? And do you have default.xbe in the root of the disc ?

Easy mistake to make Surreal64 is the business

Consider throwing Linux on there, then get on sourceforge or similar and download an N64 emululator.

You could even download a PS2 emulator and convert your Xbox into a PS2 as well. While your at it, grab a Gamecube emulator.

Xbox, Linux desktop, PS2, Gamecube and N64 all in one

I can't remember the names of all the good emulators which run under Linux, but I remember seeing loads last time I was sifting through the SuSE software.

I'm interested in using an N64 emulator to play my N64 games on my chipped X-box. just stucka 160Gig drive in. Have all my music and a few vids on there and combining my N64 would just finish it off!

Where would I get the N64 roms for the games I have. Obviously I own these games or would like the Rom for experimental purposes!

Anyone know any Ftp sites or places to download, everywhere I look seems to push me round in circles having to click loads of banner ads !!

Cheers Guys

Really? I dont think that one exists, plenty of rumours but nothing real, but hey happy to be proved wrong.

PCSX2 is a PS2 emulator for *nix but its very limited in what it can do. 3D stuff doesn't work too well (http://www.pcsx2.net)

Also see nSX2 (Open Source) - http://nsx2.emulation64.com

exactly they are so far off a ps2 emu its a joke, sorry but it wont happen (yet), you can only realistically emulate previous generation consoles, nothing is currently powerful enough to host either an xbox or ps2 emu.

Indeed, I wouldn't expect anything fully functional for a while.

Depending on what drive is in your X-Box, you may also find that you have to use CD-RW rather than CD-R (my Thompson drive won't read most CD-R's). Also saves wasting CD's Sometimes the X-Box can be a bit funny with quick formatted CD-RW's so a full format may also be required.

mine reads all cd's as it has the samsung drive, its easier if you get a game that is 700mb and lower just write to cd

DJ Dunk

Cool, the Samsung is the best drive Sending the small game to HDD via Qwix is better for me

Anyway . . . Just make sure you leave the files in the correct structure, that the default.xbe is in the root of the disc and that you remebered to edit rom path to point at your roms

stevebt

iTrader: (8)

edit the path to the what ? all i done was burn the emulators and n64 games to a cd , care to elaborate

Check for ini files that say something like ROMPATH = D:\ depending on which emus you're going to use.
