    How to rip an XBOX 360 ISO and convert it to Games on Demand (GOD) format



    Programs used for this tutorial:


    Xbox Image Browser v1.0 Build 0002
    Create ISO New link due to megaupload getting shut down
    Iso2God v1.33



    Here are some updated programs:


    Iso2God v1.35

    Iso2God v1.36

    Here is a new version of Xbox Image Browser that is compatible with xgd3 games.
    Xbox Image Browser v2.9 Build 0350



    Step 1: Extract Contents of Scene Release ISO using Xbox Image Browser


    To extract the contents of the .ISO, we will use Xbox Image Browser.


    Run Xbox Image Browser.exe and select File-->Open Image File
    [​IMG]

    Select your XBOX 360 .ISO file. For this tutorial, we will use Madden NFL 2010.
    [​IMG]

    Right Click on the name of the .ISO and select extract
    [​IMG]

    Create a new folder to place the extracted files in and click OK.
    [​IMG]

    Once the files are extracted, go to the folder and delete the $SystemUpdate folder.
    [​IMG]




    Step 2: Create a new ISO for ISO2GOD using Create ISO


    To create a new .ISO file to use with ISO2GOD, we will use Create ISO


    Run Crear iso.exe.
    [​IMG]

    Select the folder from Step 1 for the Source Folder and select a location to save
    the new .ISO.
    [​IMG]

    Click Create Iso
    [​IMG]




    Step 3: Convert ISO to Games on Demand format using Iso2God


    Now, we will use Iso2God to convert the .ISO to Games on Demand (GOD) format.

    Run Iso2God.exe and select Add ISO
    [​IMG]

    Select the .ISO from Step 2 as the Image Location and
    create a new folder for the Output Location. The title
    details will automatically be generated by the program.
    [​IMG]

    The .ISO will now be placed in queue. You may add more .ISO files created from Step 2 or convert just one .ISO for now.
    [​IMG]

    Click Convert. The program will now convert all of the .ISO files in your queue.
    [​IMG]

    You now have successfully converted a full game rip to Games on Demand format.

    Now, to play the game, just copy the folder created in step 3 (in this case 454108C6) to the hard drive on your JTAG XBOX 360 at this location:
    Hdd1:\Content\0000000000000000\

    Madden NFL 2010 for example, will be located:
    Hdd1:\Content\0000000000000000\454108C6




    There are several ways to copy the game to the XBOX 360. Personally, I copy the GOD folder created in Step 3 to a usb flash drive, insert it to my xbox
    360 and copy to the XBOX 360 HDD using Freestyle Dash 1.09 that I have installed on my JTAG XBOX 360.

    [​IMG]




    Now, to play the game, just go to Game Library, select Xbox 360 Games and select the game you want to play by hitting the Y Button.

    I have over 80 games on my 500GB internal Hard drive in Games on Demand format. There have been a handful of games that don't work for me. If you can add to this list, please post here and I will update this post.

    Games not compatible
    Asterix at the Olympics
    Banjo-Kazooie Nuts and Bolts
    Hasbro Family Game Night





    F.A.Q.'s
    1. These programs come up as viruses when I run them through my antivirus program.
    This is a false positive. I've never had any problems with any of the programs. Not to mention, they are used by a lot of XBOX 360 users. I've never heard of anyone encountering any problems with them either.

    Thanks for the guide excellent I just have a question:

    I have recently used the USB mass storage feature on NXE and am currently using a external hard drive for all my 360 data, as I hope to exchange my current 20gb model for the new slim version. I wanted to know if there are any programs that allow you to view all the data on the external drive that is formatted to Xbox 360 on the PC and write to it so I could transfer the converted ISOs to it, I've tried Xport 360 and xplorer360, to no avail. I have tried modio, but that only seems to do profiles and game saves, unless I missing something. I should add that my console is not modded. I do not wish to do any hardware modification, but do not mind using software mods, I have searched like a maniac for this info, which is how I found your guide. I would be very grateful if you could help me out with my queries and or any advice you could provide. Thanks alot, I hope my query was detailed enough and not too long winded

    Thanks again

    Hi,

    The convert xbox 360 iso files to games page you have written has great information and I would like to try it but when I downloaded create iso and xbox image browser my counterspy tells me there are trojans in the file. I am wondering if you advise me about this and if there was any other links which I could download these files.


    Thanks again

    ok so i have the new xbox slim 4gb with a usb 8gb microsoft xbox 360 pen drive. i was browsing the dash on my 360 an i noticed the games on demand section. so i started thinking if they sell games that can get d/l direct to console and play without disc then there should be a way to download iso an convert them to work off the drive an not actual disc .an i came across your thread . im trying it now so hopefully it works and if it does then im going to go get a bigger hard drive lol but i will keep you posted on my progress.

    ps. my xbox 360 is: not modded in any way at all.
    has 4gb internal hdd, 8gb usb pen drive.
    updated dash

    I was wondering if it is possible to install the .god content to the Xbox 360 S console hard drive using a sata-to-usb connection and Xplore 360 without the JTAG modifications.

    hi nice work
    well i have not installed any games like this but the thing is i input 7.29 GB games in Xbox Image Browser.exe it shows them as 2.5 or 3.6 GB or some thing like that so i wanted to ask is this normal well could be as iso files do contain empty spaces but it seemed a bit odd so i just wanted to be sure of it
    thanks

    Hi there! Congratulations and thanks for your guide! I was wondering if this works on any profile and if it's dangerous for ban and other stuff. I saw something similar on xbox360iso in which you had to use a different profile. What about on this?

    iso to god says it has a trogen. I'm sure its just cause the way the program Is designed to run. I do have an issue with the program though. when I run it on my windows 7 64bit machine my pc freezes up and I have to hold my power button till it powers down. Is there a way around that or a similar program that will work with this operating system?

    Thank you for the great guide. I was wondering if this is stealth patched and if it is safe to play on xbox live?

    Thanks

    pls advice how to solve this issue

    You MUST have a JTAG'd box to do this. There is NO software only option!
