Awesome video. To the point, doesn't skip anything because people "assume" you know the basics, and at a good pace to easily follow along with. This made it super easy to get xiso files to play in xemu, definitely gets a thumbs up from me.
No man for the first part you just have to drag and drop the iso on the exe. No renaming nada. I have done it and it works perfectly in cxbx every time. Second part yes for the xiso.
You earned a sub and a like. I was up all night trying to do this and decided to take a break as the shell would not work correctly. Your tutorial has it working straight away.
Hi Jov, absolute lifesaver of a Vid. I've been faffing about with DD commands with no luck, this worked perfectly. I now know my PC isn't beefy enough to emulate XBOX.
for anyone having issues with the second part with you shift click make sure to shift right click on the files you want to convert do shift click on the folder then click on power shell and follow the rest of the video it worked for me
Jov, I spent a frustratingly long hour and half desperately trying to get this to work, and then I found your video. 10 minutes later I'm now happily playing Sims 2 for xbox. Thank you so much!
i try to run it but i said that the file with ".exe" does not exist ? i think i should be ".c" but it opens my visual studio code... so doesnt works actually i still trying
sorry me bad!!! i download another realease in .c at the gir hub repository i go back check the realeases select the correct one and everything goes well! i was very easy and fast
Ah, thank you so much for detailed instructions. This video was 'perfect.' It was exactly what I was looking for and by the end of it I was able to get a game running on XEMU. Yes!!
For anybody running into the "no such file or directory" issue when doing the first step in powershell you can just drag the file onto the "extract-iso" exe file and it will work!
Solved Many are confused. so here is me explaining FOR xemu you need xiso which you can only get from XBE . So first convert ISO to XBE and then XBE to XISO FOR XBE simply drag iso to extract.iso.release (no command needed) after that FOR XISO use 2nd command (There are 2 commands in the video discription above) AND done !!!!!!
If you're trying to create an XISO by following the steps in the video and it still isn't working, make sure your game isn't double foldered, for example you have a folder named "Halo Combat Evolved" or whatever game, you click into that folder and instead of seeing the XBE and game file folders, you see another folder named "Halo Combat Evolved". If that's the case then you need to move the second folder that actually has the XBE and game files out of that main folder and then run your powershell/terminal command.
I've followed this guide about a dozen times and when I execute the script in powershell, nothing happens. Just gives me the folder prompt. Have run in both powershell and powershell admin. What am I doing wrong?
Exactly what I needed, Thank you for a great detailed video! If you have a filename with spaces, just put quotes around the whole filename. Ex file name.iso "file name.iso"
Incredible explanation, thank you so mucho bro for explaining it so well and all, i had that problem running games that werent xiso, now i can play my games correctly, sub+like, tnx
When is do .\extract-xiso.exe -x ‘.\ iso ‘ it says open error: no such file or directory. I made sure I put everything in right and it still doesn’t work. Any idea on how to fix this?
I was having the same problem, but then i enable the option to show the file name extensions and worked fine. If you don't know how to enable it, just click "view" in the windows file explorer, you will see this option right away. I hope that was helpful for ya! :)

Just wanted to quickly comment here, you dont need to use powershell to extract the xiso, you can just drag and drop the ISO onto the extractor exe file.
So I tried running .\extract-xiso.exe -x '.\filename.iso’ in Powershell but it keeps saying "No such file or directory" (I'm trying to do it from a straight .iso file, not an iso Archive, how do I make one?) I thought it's because I forgot to add ".iso" at the end of the name but same issue after adding that, any tips? Been at this for 3 hours and so frustrated, please help!
Hey, for the first step, someone on here shared that the iso can be dragged into the extract-xiso program and it will begin to extract the iso. Hopefully this helps.
@@jovsgaminglounge is it supposed to extract through power shell or command prompt? I drag my gaylo2.iso disc image into the extractor exe icon and it opens command prompt instead of power shell and creates a folder.
From a Steam Deck user: Thank you! Some files dont come this way, and this video has been very helpful for converting the files in the necessary format.
When I try to extract the iso with powershell, it doesn't recognize it and says there is nothing there, but the directory is correct. I thought I might just have a scuffed game so I downloaded Jet Set Radio since it's the game you used as a sample and it still didn't recognize it.
I think I know why. Your file that you got on your computer. when renaming your game (iso file), take out the "dot iso." Just give it the name of game, no spaces. It'll automatically read it as an iso. While in powershell, you going to put the name of your game and then put dot iso. It should work. I had that same issue. I hope it works for you.
This is confusing for me. None of my downloaded games are an .iso. They were .7z files. I unpacked them and was left with some folders and files. I'm trying to use XEMU.
i coudnt compresses it back after extracting the file it gives me error in the power shell saying that filesystem: bin.zipread error: Value too large faild ! what should i do please help i was trying to extract forza horizen 1
I tried this with my Red Dead Redemption iso-file, but I don't get a default.xbe-file. I do get a default.xex-file among several other files. Running extrat-xiso with the c parameter stops with an error (generating avl tree from filesystem: rdr2_layer0.rpfread error: value too large failed!) How do I convert the xex-file into a xiso-file?
@Jov's Gaming Lounge hol up so to make the xiso file for xemu you compress the already modified xbe file? or run the command line on the original iso file? please respond when u can. all your videos ive seen were very clear and concise but i am confused atm
you first extract the redump iso. its going to give you a folder with an xbe file in it. you then run the command to compress it (the folder) and with will be an iso that will be compatible with xemu.
@@jovsgaminglounge thank you boss man, i went and found an updated video you had made, i forgot i had even sent this, but i do hae a question, like i dont have the greatest pc, but ive emu pcsx2 and dolphin both on games that werent exactly lightwork but im getting considerable frame rate loss like a consistent 73% of natural once i get past menus. is there something i need to do to better optimize my comp, or xemu for performance? is box emulation alot more taxing than pcsx2/dolphin, or do i need to check if something has goone awry in my setup? sorry, i know your not tech support, but if you know about system tax differences between the various system emulators during this era thought it might . thanks for all the help, realliy pleased i came across your channel and thanks for your prompt reply, even tho i failed to check it after i followed up on your other
@@sarmstrong7014 i have ran these emulators on low tier pcs. the best thing to do is throw upscaling out the window if you are doing so. play at native. use dx 11 where possible. xemu uses opengl. check the games compatibility to see if it runs proper on the emulator on xemu.app/#compatibility. as far as other optimizations im not too sure. hope this helps.
im so confused (not by your video). Is downloading games for the emulator not an option anymore? I assumed that was done to play through emulators/ the point of getting one. How are games acquired?
