Patching Guide For WAVE4 Game to WAVE3

links fixed

 

So, I did the patching for Assassin's Creed II about 4 times by now, all I've been trying to do is check the ISO without patching it now, so I was wondering, what exactly are the steps to do this for? I have not selected anything else after closing and reopening it, but it still patches it again everytime. Thanks for the help.

you can either use the app linked above to patch the game, or you can use the abgx method and check what wave it is in the app in the link.

 

So if anybody's stuck with the CLI here are the commands to do the exact same thing. Tested and works fine. They're in a linux bash script now, but the command itself should be pretty obvious:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

## Settings ##

## Change these to match the location of your patch files

video=~/downloads/w4tw3/video.iso
pfi=~/downloads/w4tw3/pfi.bin

## Check for each .iso in current folder

for game in *.iso ; do

##                  ##
##    Menu system   ## 
##                  ##

figlet Wave Patcher

    ;;
esac

Region should be changed if not in Europe.

 

I cant see how you would get banned for playing a patched game offline (disconnected, unpluged) and then you sign in with a genuine game and get banned. Please respond with a answer i really wanna play assassins creed 2

 

is this method supposed to make it so you don't need an activate disk?

because i tried it with tekken 6 and in the end i still had to use an activate disk.

lite-on 1.61

 

1.61 reads all waves to date so you shouldn't need activate.iso, and yes when you patch a game to a lower wave it removes the need for activate.iso

 

hmmm i must have had 1.60 then because i needed an activate disk.

but no more annoyances, the new ixtreme 1.7 owns. works with everything i've tried so far without an activate disk.

 

No such thing as iXtreme 1.7

 

I have a question sickdude. I followed all the steps you gave with the pack regarding the settings changing in abgx and what not. Now, my question is, I have firmware 1.5 and i need to change Bioshock 2 which is wave 4 to Wave 2. Do i need to take additional steps to your tutorial to convert it to wave 2? Because as you know, wave 3 is not playable on 1.5. This is why i ask. I tried converting Dantes Inferno to wave 2 with 360 game patcher with no success, just in case you want to refer me to that program, im not interested in it since it did not work for me.

Please let me know what steps i need to take to make this wave 2 using abgx.

 

Hey guys,

I also have the issue of applying the latest system update to my xbox 360. I got banned back on halloween of 2009, and when doing some research on updating without Xbox live, a lot of sites say I need a " 'default.xex'"file. However, the update form the official xbox site doesn't give you any .xex file after unzipping.

I tried burning the contents of the system update folder to disc and get a "mixed media disc" message. I am trying to play bioshock 2, and while all my older burned games work (last one was Fifa 10) I'm having problems with Bioshock 2, which just gives me the xbox 360 logo and shows up as a DVD.

I use vebatim disks, but I'm just trying to figure out if the issue has to do with the game itself, or if because my 360 probably didn't get the latest update. How can I check if my 360 has the latest official firmware?

Any help would be appreciated!
