MenuX
- Complex
Walkthrough
FINAL!:
2 - 11
Games
ISOS on
1 DVD-R\RW
01. Unrar
the ISOs
of the
games
to include
on the
compilation.
02. Open
xISO Maker
V0.7.1\2
L and
click
the 'Read
XISO'
button
(the yellow
folder
next to
your CD/DVDROM
device).
Locate
an *.ISO
you unrarred
in step
01 and
click
"Open".
Click
the 'Extract
All' button
(CD with
the red
arrow
pointing
diagonally
up) and
locate
a place
to extract
the ISO
to.
03. Download
Microsoft.Hacked.MenuX.XBOX-COMPLEX
(If you
have MenuX_Prepared-[I]ce[x].rar
you can
skip steps
02 - 14).
04. Make
a folder
on your
Desktop
and call
it anything
you like.
05. Extract
cpxmenux.rar
to the
folder
you created
on your
Desktop.
06. Go
into that
folder
and open
"config.txt"...
It reads:
TITLE=Xbox
Media
Player
INFO=divx/vcd/network
GFX=media.png
DIR=xbmedia
Make
it look
like this:
TITLE=
INFO=
GFX=
DIR=
...say
you have
3 games,
you would
do this
3 times
like this:
TITLE=
INFO=
GFX=
DIR=
TITLE=
INFO=
GFX=
DIR=
TITLE=
INFO=
GFX=
DIR=
07. Save
"config.txt".
08. Delete
the following
files:
- "xbmedia"
dir and
"backdir.xbe"
in the
"ISO"
dir
- "menu.xdi"
in the
"MenuX"
dir
- "media.png"
in the
"sshot"
dir
OPTIONAL
(because
they're
ugly):
- "screen.png"
and "wait.png"
in the
"media"
dir. Don't
delete
unless
you have
replacements
(included
in my
MenuX_Prepared-[I]ce[x].rar).
09. If
desired,
you can
change
the ambient
music
that plays
at the
game selection
screen.
In iso\MenuX\media
is an
ambient.wma.....
you can
delete
that and
put any
song you
like in
there
make sure
you convert
it properly
to ambient.WMA
using
All To
WMA Converter,
Advanced
WMA Workshop...go
to www.litexmedia.com
to download
a converter.
Make sure
you rename
the song
you are
using
to ambient.wma.
NOTE:
if you
have MenuX_Prepared-[I]ce[x].rar
you won't
have to
delete
ambient.wma,
already
deleted
for ya.
10. Get
small
*.JPGs
of the
games
you are
burning
(Gifs
DONT WORK!
ONLY JPGs!).
www.ign.com\www.xbox.com
has lots
of images
for your
pleasure.
11. Save
them to
your hard
drive,
only 1
picture
for each
game.
12. Open
Adobe
Photoshop
6\7 and
open the
*.JPGs.
13. Save
them as
*.PNG.
14. Now
copy all
of the
extracted
ISOs of
your games
to "ISO"
dir. Each
ISO must
be in
its own
seperate
directory
in the
ISO folder.
15. Rename
the game
directories
(folders
with contents
of game
files)
to something
simple.
i.e.,
Instead
of "NCAA
Football
2003",
rename
it to
"ncaa03".
16. Rename
the .PNGs
files
you made
to the
same name
as the
game dirs.
i.e.,
if your
game dir
is named
"oddworld",
name the
.png for
that game
"oddworld.png"
17. Now
open "config.txt".
18. Fill
in the
enrty
information
for your
games:
TITLE=Arctic
Thunder
<--
This is
what is
shown
on the
game selection
screen.
INFO=Midway
<-----
COMPANY
GFX=at.png
<-----
Pictures
you saved
from net
changed
to *.PNG
in Adobe
Photoshop
6\7.
DIR=arctic
<-----
THE NAME
OF DIR
WHERE
THE GAME
FILES
ARE LOCATED.
TITLE=
INFO=
GFX=

DO THE
SAME THING
FOR THE
OTHER
2. I stuffed
11 Games
on 1 DVD-R
and all
work 100%.
So don't
be scared
to put
only a
few games
on, fill
up the
whole
disk!
Your final
folder
should
look like
this:
---->(In
ISO DIR)---->arctic(Dir)
eg.-->MenuX
(Dir)
eg.-->mx2002(Dir)
eg.-->ncaa03(Dir)
default.xbe(File)
ReDir.xbe(File)
---->(In
MenuX
DIR)-->media(Dir)
-->sshot(Dir)
In sshot
dir should
be your
*.PNG
Files.
In media
dir should
be ambient.wma,
and of
course
the other
stuff..don't
worry
it's all
there
=)
19. Open
"MenuX-xdi.bat"
(In Main
Dir).
Press
any key
to continue.
Go to
iso\MenuX.
It should
have made
a "menu.xdi".
20. You
are now
ready
to burn.
For RecordNowMax:
Put a
Blank
DVD-R\RW
in DVD-RW
Burner
Drive.
Open RecordNowMax
Select
"DATA".
For "Volume
Label"
put whatever
you like.
Click
"Add
Files
And Folders".
Locate
"ISO"
dir.
Open ISO
Dir.
Add Everything
that is
in the
"ISO"
dir.
Click
"Options".
For File
System
Type,
choose
"UDF
- Up to
128 in
filename
length,
any char.,
plus 8+3
tree (Bridge)".
Click
"OK".
Burn on
1X.
Choose
you DVD-RW
Burner
Drive.
Click
Red Circled
Button.
DONE!
For PrimoDVD
2.0:
Put a
Blank
DVD-R\RW
in DVD-RW
Burner
Drive.
Open PrimoDVD
2.0.
Click
"Go
To Full
Application".
Go to
File-->New
Job-->Data
Disk.
For Volume
Label
put whatever
you like.
Click
the Yellow
Folder
to Add

Add MenuX
(Dir)
and your
game dirs.

all at
once.
Click
the White

Add "default.xbe","ReDir.xbe"
and "menu.xdi".
Burn on
1X.
Select
your DVD-RW
Burner
Drive.
Click
Red Circled
Button.
DONE!
Note--->
I prefer
RecordNowMax
for burning
this.
I recommend
this for
all XBOX
stuff
burnt.
Easier
to use
then PrimoDVD
2.0, and
RecordNowMax
is newer
better
technology.
If you
still
