    I have rip FF13 for jtag/rg so i have now 3 folders, i copied it to xbox namely

    hdd\games\ff13disk1
    hdd\games\ff13disk2
    hdd\games\ff13disk3

    I have read about disc swapping, it needs the swap.exe and the MULTI.ini.
    Just to test how swap.exe works i didnt install it yet and i have no multi.ini in my xbox, i played the game and notice that i'm already in disc 2 because when i save the game it says that datasave01 disc 2.

    I didnt do anything, take note I DONT HAVE multi,ini so is it already really automatic with my xbox?

    I have FSD 2.2 1072 dash 155740

    p.s. i run the game starting at disc 3 folder

    Oh i see :D i thought it was just a bug or im just lucky :D, i just recently ripped it and research about multi disc games and the info about is that you need the diskswapper tool + editing the multi.ini.

    so cool fsd knows how to swap it automatically +THANKS to you mate

    p.s. maybe you need that tool on older fsd :D

    disc swapper plugin was only needed for FSD 2.1 or lower ,,FSD2.2 and 3.0 have it built in,,as long as folders are set correctly as yours are they should alwys work fine ;)

    Hi guys,

    I'm noob for xbox and I need some help please,

    I have xbox slim with 250 GB disc space. How can I play 2 disc games, like Max payne 3. I downloaded 2 iso files, converted both iso files with iso2god and then copy both files to xbox hard drive. I can play 1st half of the game without problem
    (1 st file), but when I tried to play 2nd half of the game which is on the second file then I got message that I must put second DVD in DVD player. What must I do to avoid this and play game from beginning to the end. I have JTAG on my xbox, xbox DVD unit isn't cracked. Is there any instructional video or anything that could resolve my nob question?

    I guess I have to update my FSD, how can I do that,

    Please help,

    Regards

    Bostjan

    Just make sure you have each disc within it's own directory. Install a more current version of FSD, like 2.2.r725 or r1072. You can also install FS3 if you'd like. If you currently have FSD installed, you can upgrade directly via the app as long as your console is connected to the net. If not, download the installer files and install a clean copy manually. Then reset your game paths, etc, and rerun your database scan. As long as each disc is within it's own folder, and your FSDPlugin is loading, the disc will swap automatically.

    Gelboy i was planning to ask this question but im a bit shy LOL but since you brought the topic up what do i use to hide them because when you go to may xbox game menu all of the three disc shows up as 3 games =))

    i went to file manager didnt see any HIDE option there.
    I went to the games menu i dont have HIDE option also all i got is screenshots achievements view saves rename etc etc.

    If you are using FSD\FS3, select your specific game cover, press Y, and select "Move Game". When the next pop-up option window comes up, select "No Section". You'll get a warning message stating that the cover cannot be resurrected. Just press A to confirm. If you EVER want the duplicate game cover back, just access the web GUI for FSD\FS3, and you can resurrect the game cover back into the games menu.

    No, that option is also within FSD 2.2. See below screenshot. I am running FSD 2.2.r725 on my SLIM RGH and it is an option. Try switching to a different skin (if not on the default) and see if it helps.

    Disable in dashlaunch , that is for if you are not using FSD /FSD plugins

    Mass Effect 3 / Disc 1
    / Disc 2
    / Disc 3

    game folder with each disc in it's own folder inside of it should work fine ;)

    doesn't seem to want to work like that for me I've had to put them like Mass Effect 3 Disk 1, Mass Effect 3 Disk 2.
    only thing is I see two Mass Effect 3 boxes in my fsd game menu but it is swapping without even saying please enter disc 1 or 2 it just loads and does it. I tried that way you said first but when I do it like that and press play on the game it says pops up saying it can't play the game try re downloading it lol

    Are you saying that you have three different folders called Mass Effect 3 Disk 1/ *Disk1 contents here*, Mass Effect 3 Disk 2 *Disc2 contents here* /Mass Effect 3 Disc 3 /*Game contents here* and it works?

    Hello, googling about my problem I found out this thread.

    So, I was playing Mass Effect 3 and in the middle of Citadel DLC I got unredable disc error.
    Now I tried to name folders Mass Effect 3 Disc 1/2,Mass Effect 3 Disk 1/2, Mass Effect 3 DVD 1/2 and even to make Mass Effect 3 folder and in it create a DVD1 and DVD2 folder. Nothing helped, I get that error every time.

    How do I fix this? Please help.
