    Default Help needed with new games and AP 2.5

    I've just updated by 360 to the new firmwares from Raps Sticky, i've downloaded Dance Central and patched using ABGX using the settings needed to auto fix the ISO (used a video from Youtube)

    When i try and play the game or any new AP 2.5 at the dash it just says "Play Game" and doesn't show the name of the disc, when i try and load the game it shows a dirty disc error

    The console info is ::

    Hitachi 46 flashed with LTPlus-46-1.1.bin using Jungle Flasher....

    Is there anything i should be doing that i am missing?

    mine's did the same when patched and flashed with LT+ 1.1, can you reflash back to LT+.

    I have a 79 flashed with LT+1.1 and NFS:HP works fine with it, even online.
    Maybe dodgy media/burn or a laser on the way out, as I've read AP2.5 games are laser intensive.

    even when i stick the game in it just doesnt show a game title just "play game" i cant press "Y" to install etc.....

    is it worth flashing bacxk to the LT+ instead of 1.1 then?

    It's worth a try. Mine did this until I flashed back. Nothing to lose with giving it a shot.

    Well I guess the direction you take on this depends on if your console is banned.
    As the Hitachi 46 doesnt cater for AP25 checks, I guess the only reason for updating to the new LT+ firmware on the drive would be for the ability to use on xbox live. That said, I didn't think Dance Central was an AP25 game ???
    I would be tempted to return the drive to stock, and then back to Ixtreme 1.51.
    The only other thing I can think of is it might be the new dash picking up on a previous spoofing issue. Are you sure your machine has always had an Hitachi 46 in it ?

    agree with the above as you say "any ap2.5" at mo theres only 2 or 3 if u count fable 3 and dance central isnt one of them either the hitachi is being spoofed or the "patching" your doing is damaging the iso if the machine had the hitachi as an org drive just burn the iso as usual-no patching any any version of firmware from 1.51 on should play it

    OK, so sorry its not down to the new Ap25 games

    i have patched with the LT+1.1 and the ixtreme 1.5.1 and still, games like dance central etc wont play, but if i throw in my old copy of forza 2 or colin Mcrae dirt they load fine.

    All the new games show is play game, no picture of the game etc, i get the video/quick thing about how to play with kinect then dirty disc errors....

    any ideas?

    I'm going with shit media here.....and your old disks that work were likely on better media.

    Have a try at copying one of your old working disks onto your current blanks and see the new copy works.
    Then clean the lens on your drive (properly, not with a disc), and check/adjust your dvd pot following the tweaking guides.
    And use Verbatim disks burnt at 4x (which gives comparable burn quality to the old 2.4x verb blanks).

    This is really doing my tits in....

    I burnt off Kinect Sports as below ::

    Checked & fixed with ABGX - just show "play game" but doesn't show any game info, when you press Y nothing happens
    Just the RAW ISO untouched - same as above
    remove wave 8/9 and changed for wave 3 - same as above

    now ive done this on Verb 8X and Aone plus discs all burnt at 2.4x on my MAC using OSx360 and imgburn on my laptop

    WTF is going on, i have tried firmware 1.51 and LT+1.1 (cant use LT+ as that didnt support the 46 Hitachi)

    any one got any ideas, the only one i have at the moment is to buy another drive, and use that instead (id need someone to do that tho lol)

    anyone got anything, im at my wits end

    P.S i updated the xbox off live (VERY lastest dash etc)

    would seem the drive was on its way out... as its now died...

    Whats teh best thing to do now boys? either get a laser (bit dodgy of) or get a whole new drive and spoof it?

    I dont mind doing teh spoofing etc, but whats the best drive (most reliable and plays the AP25 best) and what else would i need to buy ti actually flash it etc

    sorry for all the n00b questions lol
