The game is in the database, but abgx360 cannot autofix wave 4 games when the PFI info is missing, because it does not recognise the wave 4 partition. The next version of abgx360 should have full support to do that.

It will only do that if the PFI is there and in his case it's not. The scene release autofixes fine, but his rip is missing all of the stealth files and you can see in his log that when it downloads the PFI from the database, it doesn't recognise it as it doesn't support wave 4, so it aborts the autofix: -

Im not on live, so I intend to only play this offline. I've read a lot of hysterical comments about how the xbox wont read it because it is a wave 4, and some firmware needed updating but this was on mininova so most of those complaints can be attributed to the author's own ineptitude in burning as opposed to the iso itself. To be sure though Im checking with the experts on here. If I run it through ABGX (to get the .dvd file) will that be enough to then go ahead and imgburn it like a normal game? (the last one I did was ODST which worked perfectly and think that was a wave 4). Just want to make sure as I am down to my last DL

So, I get the same thing when I rip my retail copy of Episodes For Liberty City. Is there a way to get the files needed to p[atch it so it verifies like the scene release?
