Guide: How to Burn 360 Games on Mac (no parallels or bootcamp required)

please write more...

 

i'm trying to backup Need for Speed Most Wanted but wheni try to copy the iso to my mac, the progress bar completes up to about i guess 90 percent, then it shuts off.

 

some possible problems

nfs is scratched

your drive cant read it properly

or the xbox 360 hacker program has a bug, i myself havnt used it to copy games yet so i cant say. dagowatt should try to look into it

pal or ntsc

 

its ntsc. my drive reads it but it just shuts down 3/4 of the way copying the game. the program hacks and burns fine. already got one game from it but i'd like to backup my games.

If X360 ISO Hack utility is crashing while read your disk, it is maybe an OSX bug. :-( I try rip bad disk with OSX built in ripper from Terminal ( dd ), but got the same result :-(

 

X360 ISO Hacker Utility v2f released:

i have version 2 but it still crashes. oh well. its still a sick program. good job fellow hackers

Did you try to copy Original DVD? You Can Not copy Original Game DVD!

first try with iso hacker v2f failed.

help pls.

i have a iso copy of a game i wish to burn. - check
i tried burning once using toast and the disc came up in my Xbox360 much like a DVD disc would saying "pleas insert this disc into an xbox360 console"
download X360 Hacker v2 and hacked and burnt the disc. same results.
took the raw ISO file (unhacked, backup copy) re-hacked it and tried burning it in toast. still..... same results.

is there a step im missing? i don't want to try too much more cause DL DVDs are not exactly the cheapest thing to replace.

 

maybe you are using a game from a different region code. I dont want to know on x360 iso hacker. i have it and may try it again but i have a coaster on my first try so i downloaded iburn360 and it hacked and burned both of my games no problems.

 

no it's a region free game (or at least labeled as) and i dont think i'd even get that type of screen even if it wasnt?

i'm tempting to try iburn360 and im tempted to throw it on my brother's PC and burn it off of there, but i dont need to keep burning useless discs

 

iburn is a mac app. I just switched to mac and had a lot of success using img burn on pc. my pc burner stopped burning DL disks so i came here looking for a way to burn on my imac. iburn worked for me first try and x360 iso hacker did not work first try. i am not saying its not any good just didnt work for me. i never could get toaster to work and i think its because of not being able to set the layer breaks. try iburn if it doesnt work then head over to pc if thats what you want to do. i would make sure you are using quality media also.

 

darkside6: Your ISO is not iXterem compatible, not patched well or your XBox has old FW!
Try check the file with DVDMulleter on XP.

 

unfortunately ive wasted 2 dvds on your program and on on the iburn360,
iburn360 crashed and your program seemed to copy fine, but at the very end brought up a error saying it failed to copy, and can not be verified :-( is this a bug? im using a macbook (black) with build in DVD+R+ DL writer

 

If the error is end of the verifying, I think it is not a big problem, because there are the 0s. Try to rip disk with Copy options, if it read without error and get a 7,838,760,960 Byte sized ISO, everything is OK.
Try it on XBox too.
If you get the same error try to use another DL media or burner.

I use this method more than 3 months without problem.

 

is there a way to rip the disk from the mac without using an external disk drive?

 

thanks dagowatt, from what you're saying its more a problem with my ISO (not hard to believe it was a dl) then my mac. my 360 is a new one we got for xmas and already installed dashboard updates (not sure if that included firmware as well).

maybe i'll just borrow someone's copy of A.C. and rip my own copy and go from there.
