    Default Custom Game CD

    If i had say 2 or 3 games which were about 800 megs and I want to put them on one dvd, how would I make a menu so when the game starts i have an option to choose which game i want to play?

    its easy - there are various apps that can do this - I used to use Game selector but that was ages ago I think a more recent one is called menuX - you drop your games into a folder each (must be extracted files) and the burn them and the app onto a disc. I did a few of these back when DVDR's were hard to get.

    Some games just wouldnt work this way but 90% were fine

    cheers

    just use evox as the menu, its more compatable than the other menu progs, just make sure you turn off IGR as it causes alot of games to crash.

    its a good idea to have the enigmah ntsc/pal software on the disk too incase u hase to swap it.

    just have the ini file like this:

    [Menu]

    Section "Root"
    {
    Item "Batman Dark Tomorrow","d:\batman\default.xbe"
    Item "Black Stone: Magic & Steel","d:\blackstone\default.xbe"
    Item "Indiana Jones & The Emperors Tomb","d:\indy\default.xbe"
    Item "Videomode Selector","d:\vMode\default.xbe"
    }

    you can leave the rest of the ini as it is if you like

    no ninjaman, u can use evox as a frontend for games, i have used menux and while it is nice ive had quite alot of problems with new titles not working.

    i use evox for all my multigames and i never have a prob

    IGR is in game reset, make sure it is set to off in the evo.ini

    enigmah video select is a util to change your xbox output from pal to ntsc and vice versa, its usefull because not all games work in the both videomodes
