You can download the full tutorial for offline use -> here <- (7zip file!).
What you need:
1) A FLASHED/MODDED 360 CONSOLE!
Get this first! If you don't have one, why bother reading further?
2) A DVD Burner which is capable of burning DVD+R DL (Double Layer) Discs!
If you don't have one of your own, talk to some friends!
3) DVD+R DL Discs (8.5GB - DVD9)!
Yes 8.5GB DVD discs DOES exist! And I recommend Verbatim and Traxdata/Ritek, Traxdata/Ritek discs are cheaper, but have never had any bad experience with them.
4) A full 360 game ISO file!
5) Download, Install & Run ImgBurn -> DOWNLOAD <- Choose one of the mirrors!
6) Follow the tutorial!
Click the button [Write image file to disc]
Click [Tools] -> [Settings...]
Click the tab [Write] -> Select "User Specified" under Options.
In the field next to "Sectors in L0:" write: 1913760
Click [ OK ]
Find the little button with the open book and click it..
Here you must choose the REAL brand of your DVD burner! Google is your friend!
In the dropdown list of "Change For:" choose anything with "DVD+R DL" in it.
And in the "New Setting:" dropdown list choose "DVD-ROM" and click [ Change ].
I have a "PHILIPS SDVD8821", but the chip is "Nu Tech".
Just click [ OK ] in the two windows.
Ok! Everything is now set!
Start from here on everytime you are going to burn a 360 game with ImgBurn!
Browse to the game you want to burn and select the ".dvd" file.
The file isn't needed because we have set the LayerBreak manually, but if you have it, use it.
Else select the game Disc Image itself.
If you want to use a ".dvd" file you can download it ->
here (7zip file!)
1) If you have multiple drives in your computer, choose the right one!
2) Check that it says "(LB: 1 913 760)" in the "Sectors:" information.
3) Burning with 2.4x is to recommend, slow burning is the best choice.
Though some people has experienced better results with a littlebit faster burning
with the Verbatim discs!
4) Click the burn button and wait!
Yes I have a 4.7GB (DVD5) disc in my burner (out of 8.5s while writing this tutorial).
