Here is me burning an XGD3 game (Warhammer 40k: Space Marine) on windows 7 using ImgBurn. Errors are normal but you might just get a fright when they happen. Here's the video showing all the errors you will encounter... Thanks to C4E for the 0800 v3 firmware that allowed me to back-up Space Marine and for the LT+ 2.0 firmware so that we can all play back-ups. Also thanks for LT-MAX because without it we wouldn't be able to play these games on burned media. I burned this disk on my laptop, took it out and put it into the 360, deleted my installed version of the 360 HDD (from playing my original copy) and re-installed it no problem. We spent all nite playing it all and have had no problems at all :)

  • why would you need a .dvd file if your setting it to calculate optimal... do you even know what its for....

  • @eraldorh Well Yeah, of course I know what the .dvd file is for. Do you? The .dvd file OVERWRITES the calculate optimal setting. The reason that you should set it to calculate optimal is because if you don't you receive another error telling you that a .dvd file is about to overwrite your manual layerbreak settings. I suppose that without an iHAS burner you could omit the .dvd file altogether but I like to tell ppl to use it just to help minimize the errors that appear on screen :)

  • I did everything as mentioned using verbatims for mw3. My first attempt didn't have an error at 97% it burned the entire disc. Why is that? I had to truncate it also before the burn.

  • @nuggetflazer if you click truncate ImgBurn works out how much data to cut off the end. It then turns the new value (of 7.9GB instead of 8.15GB) into percentage, the percentage you see on screen is the percentage of the data that is being burned and as 7.9GB fits onto the disk it goes all the way to 100%. I have a newer video of how to do this with the new version of ImgBurn (the one that prompts about Truncate).

  • is it okay if i dont have the ihas burner because i download xbox 360 games before with my laptop and they all worked fine but now they got an update and there saying i need a ihas burner to download xgd3 games, so should i download it without a ihas burner or should i have to download it with the ihas burner PLZ REPLY BACK

  • it is not asked for anything, it just writes, and I hope it will work

  • You get the I/O error do to bad DVD+R DL media. You need to use Verbatim DVD+R DL disks. You will NEVER get errors with these DVD's. The Verbatim DVD's are pricey but are worth every penny. And iXtreme's web site may have the answer for ripping XGD3 games if you haven't stumble a video on it already. Here's the link just in case you and other YouTubers are having issues with these new Xbox 360 games. Google search for iXtreme Burner Max Official Tutorial from Team Xecutor. Follow the info.

  • and layer-break setting

  • are you using ihas burner or regular burner? as i recall each has different layer-break point

  • hey can you update (patch) xgd3 games? i have skyrim, and i updated when the disc told me to. but i was wonderin if i could patch it to 1.3 or whatever the newest skyrim update is but i don't want any weird silent anti-piracy update along with it.
