xbox space problem

hi i need help i have ran out of room on my f drive for installing games on but i have plenty on g but when i install them on there they do not show in my games file in my starter menu. I bought it like this and i dont want to formatt it or i will loose all game and films is there any way i could combine it with my f games or write it in the starter menu i'm new to this so any help in simpler terms the better would be appreciated cheers

 

hmmm... tough one i think you should be able to go in and just tell it to read from the g drive. i don't know any way to "combine the two drives. sorry i couldn't be more help.

 

What dashboard are you using

 

Easy, just go to the system settings and look MISC, then for FILE EXPLORER. Select the g: drive, then the folder with the default.xbe in it and highlight that file then hit A. I have UnleashX dash and there is no way to link the F: drive games to show up in the games directory. Only way to play is manually go into the location of the games and launch it's XBE file. Hope this helps

Thats not right, unleash x shows up any apps or games on any drive.
you need to put your games into a folder called game on the specific drive that you want to show up e.g.

f:\game\halo or whatever

If this isn't working on your xbox then their maybe something wrong with the [bold]config.xml[/bold]file that comes with the unleash dashboard thats on your harddrive.

FTP into your harddrive and check for the following lines are their

</Settings>
<Menu>
<Item Action="LaunchDVD" >Launch DVD</Item>
<List Text="Games" Sort="On" Auto="On">
<Path>E:\Games</Path>
<Path>F:\Games</Path>
<Path>G:\Games</Path>
<Path>E:\HDDLoader</Path>
<Path>F:\HDDLoader</Path>

And under the preferences section:
the following line should be like this

<EnableDriveF>True</EnableDriveF>

its a lot easier to have them appear in the menu than to use the method that your using

 

Yes sharky is right you just need to change your config.xml file and enter the information that he stated above.....but that is on UnleashX which were assuming you have....EvoX would be the same idea but i believe there is an .ini file that would have to be altered.....

hi thanx to everyone for there help i added the g file to the settings via my laptop works spot on now thanx again

 

Hi, I'm having the same problem. I've FTP a game to the 'G' drive and I can see it there from the PC but when I reboot xbox I can't see it on there. I'm using Slayers Evo-X and I must warn you I'm a complete n00b with this

 

hi mate what i hag to do was network my xbox to my computer then edit a file called evox.ini and where it said games it also says what drives to use i just copid what it said about the f drive but put g instead hope this will be useful to you

 

yes you have to edit the ini file and tell it to look in G for your games....

 

Many Thanks.... I've done it !!!! Once again thanks for you're help. Just one quick question....what's my 'E' Drive for and if i can use it for additional games, do i just add additional txt to the .ini file too ?

 

usually thats the drive people have games on but if there is extra space on there then ofcourse u can put games on it.....
