Using Driveimageutils with EvoX m8+ to play xisos from hdd

I hope this topic is not in the wrong section.

So I have driveimageutils installed along with various things that I followed in this reddit post where KaosEngineer had opte4d his help with someone else. Link below:

I have my dashloader configured in what I would assume working order. I looked at the dumped log file and appears to be working with the patch for running an xiso. I ftp'd a xiso that I made with quix and put it in my F:\Games folder along with the attach.xbe file renamed to default.xbe. Note that i have the iso and deafult.xbe in their own folder.

Now when I load everything up and go to my games folder in the dashboard, it says attach virtual disc or something of that like. So I click on it and it goes to black screen and stays there. Not sure if there is something configured wrong with driveimageutils install or if I have an incompatible bios, though evidence seemed to point that wasn't the case.

In any case, I'm pretty stumped and haven't found any threads dealing with the same problem. Though I should mention that I built the xiso from a redump on archive.org, so I am not sure if that is what the problem could be.

Did you read this? It didn’t work for me at first try but if you get the patcher to load your dash it should work.

So I gave that a good read, seems pretty similar in process.

I decided I should try to convert a game into an xiso that I know runs of the hdd fine. The game I chose to test with is Shadow the Hedgehog. So after mulleting a redump of shadow the hedgehog and using quix to create an xiso, I ftp'd that over in the similar fashion. Went to my games folder and clicked on the game and it booted fine as an xiso.

So I think the conclusion is that there is something wrong with the redump I was using for the other game I first tested (which was Burnout Revenge). If that's the case, I think I may be stuck as to how to get that game working correctly other than maybe burning a disc and using dvd2xbox or something similar. Though I can't really burn discs reliably right now as I have no disc burner.

 

I am open to any suggestions as to get Burnout working or perhaps I need to find another source, though I tried other places with supposed hdd ready game copies and they also failed to work/load.

I also did have some troubles with burnout. Currently moving to another place so my Xbox is in storage and can’t check how I solved it. I believe vimm has a working xiso for burnout, maybe try that.

I'm going to give vimm's a try. I completely forgot about that source. It seems that the more popular/bigger games seem to be the ones having the most trouble getting to work as I had tried most of the call of duty games as well as a couple of others.
