Cool app, I was able to add my music to the burnout revenge trax file. I rename the music files on the list to mine but it still show original names when playing :
01 Yellowcard - Lights And Sounds how do I change this to say 01 band - song

Thanks for the support,


Unless someone makes a tool, you'll have use a hex editor, as the names for the tracks in burnout 3/revenge are not contained within xwb's, nor are they in any xsb's.

I found the file where they're all contained a while ago, can't remember the name of the file/extension though, you'll just have to have a scout around -> the file was less than 100kb (I think).

Also, the only way to change names with EkszBox-ABX is by putting a name in the rename files textbox, clicking the list to change individual names is not yet functional.
This doesn't change the names contained within xwb's/xsb's however, just the names of the extracted files.

Greetings, I'm just wondering what's the status on the tutorial?

[teknojuce]

You know the list which pops up in programs (B button click), when you've highlighted a game.
What if there was a play music item on this, which loaded all tracks contained in the audio banks pertaining to a game into a playlist & then played them.

We should be able to do this without too many issues, I think.

(I'm not sure if the XBMC authors want features like this though).

sounds like a great idea would probably have to build a database to where all the audio files are of each game or else have some sort of automatic file search *.xwb,etc or something to that measure.

Sounds good, I have all the specs on the formats which my app supports (20 atm).
If you gave me some info on XBMC coding conventions/practices maybe we could then collaborate on this endevour.

did you get my forum msg if not i can resend it to youre email address ?

Greetings, I'm just wondering what's the status on the tutorial?

Didn't include it as I wanted to keep the compressed filesize to <1MB.
However, I just e-mailed it to xbox scene, so hopefully they will put it in the tutorial section.
I'll put a link to it here, if/when I get one.
If you have any constructive comments regarding the guide/tutorial - I want to hear them.

Thanks again for your on going versions with this app, though I have not had any time at all lately to do any further testing for you.

Sorry to say that my tut was never put up on XS for whatever reason.

Here is a link to someone else's which may help you out for now.

I will include my tut in the next ver as long as I can get the filesize down.

Props.

Some of the new stuff to expect in the next version.


--------------------------------
V1.5 FIXES &/OR UPDATES
--------------------------------
+ Batch load/extract speedup (Up to 80% on small files).
+ Improved error handling & memory allocation.
+ Load file gui glitch fixed.
+ The following extensions are supported (Upper/lower case):
.pak - (OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast) & .dvdxwb/hdxwb - (MechAssault 2)
as pertaining files are standard xwb's.
+ X360 xwb header info is now byteswapped in assembly as opposed to c++ (Twice as fast).
+ Scx could miss very small files at end of archives -> fixed.
+ Alot of code was rewritten, again.
+ Many more optimizations/fixes.
+ Leftover debug map code removed.

I would like to point out that some XBE's are compatible.

Keep up the good work Ekszbox.

Hi, im loving this app. Is there a way i can get Mashed to play my own custom audio, currently its stored in .rws?

Looking forwards to 1.5!

There should not be audio data in any xbe's, headers/audio file signatures are probably all that my app will find & extract.

Support to extract audio from Mashed rws's should happen shortly.

Audio swap support will probably not happen very soon though- due to there being so many very different rws types (I may approach it later on).


Thanks for the interest/support.
