Some games are small others aren't, some have basic copy protection some don't. If you follow the first part of my H3 Modding Tutorial, just use your own game instead of Halo 3. http://www.ibotmodz.net/forum/index.php?/topic/4806-the-complete-halo-3-modding-tutorial-part-1-of-5/
Do you just pop in a game to your computer, open up wxRipper and start the process? For me I always had to put in a DVD larger than 8.5 gigs, then hotswap the video game of my choice in so I could copy it. next time, you can use the Help Desk
I hate COD games. So I'm not ready for those games. I've never experienced games outside the realm of Gears and Halo. I probably won't play alot of xbox until ODST and Gears 3.
About 4 hours before I was leaving for my trip, update 3.0.2 for IPB came out. Being paranoid about security flaws I started the upgrade to 3.0.2. Then all hell broke loose. The shoutbox didn't work, search didn't work, and AJAX quick reply was messing up. After awhile here is the story. I downloaded 3.0.2 and began re-doing the file edits that make (Group Format, PM on Topic Moderation and other mods) without checking if I did the edits right. I then started the upload to iBotModz, and began the upgrade. At first there was no noticeable problem, except for the shoutbox. I thought it was my file edits, so I panic-ed and re-uploaded a fresh build of 3.0.2. That didn't fix the problem, so I re-began to do the file edits to get those mods working again. Then I learned there were 3 major flaws in 3.0.2 so I downloaded another fresh package and started again, then ANYTHING that was 3rd party and used AJAX failed. This was because the secure hash sent in AJAX requests were omitted in 3.0.1 or below (probably due to a time constraint to release IPB 3.) So then when they had time with 3.0.2 they verified the secure hash. The problem being, none of those apps knew that. So they didn't send the secure hash thus giving "nopermission" on (AJAX reply, Emoticon pop up, and Shoutbox). The main shoutbox guy (Terabyte) was asleep in Italy, so Brandon D stepped up and released a patch which I uploaded from a 56k internet connection on the road about 15 hours after the release of 3.0.2. I then sent in a ticket via email to IPB to fix the Emoticon pop up. I then disabled quick reply, since a patch has not yet been made. As for 'Twam, he fixed all the ACP problems that didn't require FTP. Kudos to him Now were at this current time. I fixed all those random bugs, and working to get quick reply updated. I was going to give out my pre-ordered copy of Halo 3: ODST for the problems, but whoever gets it might be from England so I'll work on something to just order a fresh copy for them due to NTSC and PAL. Sorry for the problems. Peaches
All reported errors fixed. Sorry for being gone, I wanted to do the update before I left so I wouldn't leave security vulnerabilities open. Little did I know the upgrade would halt half my add-ons.
I started the upgrade before I left my house. Upgrade failed and I took my vacation, a place where only my iPhone gets 1 bar. Currently, I'm with my iPhone and laptop next to a house stealing Internet. The time I had I uploaded the fixes. When I get back Sunday I'll fix the stuff like (blank langs, quick reply. Etc). Sorry bout this, I'll have to start a drawing for Halo 3: ODST as my apology.
The picture looks the same, don't know about the fine print though. All of mine are the same size, and I wouldn't even know what to google to try and find a bigger one.
