XBLA Dev PIRS

Hi,

I might just be stupid because I remember doing this easily back in the day, but what is the method to convert a LIVE XBLA package into Dev PIRS? Ive tried everything, signed using multiple programs, found it runs as a trial when extracted etc.
Help much appreciated

Thanks!

 

Im stumped to, ive been trying to run dead rising 2 case zero, but when extracted results in a demo, i remember being able to sign it back to full game while its unpacked but im not sure anymore :/

 

bump, we both need help here lol, hopefully some one knows.

 

Theres an "unlock" tool as part of the sdk for enabling full versions of arcade stuff, its been a number of years since ive used it so you will have to check the sdk docs for more info on that.
If i remember right, i used to use Lefluffie tool to resign using a dev KV.

It has been a while although i doubt MS deviated too much from this over time.

Search for "Arcade License Tool" in the sdk docs for usage

 

Thanks!

 

four bytes after the license on the container you just set the flag 01.

then use a tool to resign the container, profit.

 

Thanks guys!

Wheres the license mate?



Is it literally just four bytes starting from 00?

Also what method is used to resign it bud, between verify, fix, and wether to rehash or not? I take it you use a decrypted KV?

Sorry been a while for me too haha

Thanks again

 

if you scroll down you should see

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF00000000

to make it licensed you add this flag

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF00000001

 

Cheers, just checked, and its already unlocked.

Thanks, it'll come in handy though for further reference

 

How would you unlock an xbla game if its unpacked? I dont really wanna have to keep repacking the game everytime i make an edit xD there must be a flag in the xex?

edit: i litteraly dont know how to convert an extracted xbla game back into an XBLA package..

 

You should be able to use the Xbox Live Authoring Submission Tool, which is part of the SDK:

 

Thanks mate, but tried that, can make a package that runs on the dev, as a trial, if I try to unlock it in say xm360, 360 content manager or even just editing it in hex how ddxcb said, it wont boot and gives me a '1392' error. When the package is opened in 360 content manager, it shows as LIVE and unlocked, it also says the install path is XeDK/... but Ive changed my machine name since then, I changed machine name before installing from XBL Authoring Submission Tool, though I doubt thats a factor due to it working fine as a trial. Any ideas? :s

Cheers

 

Or use Le Fluffie.

 

Ive tried that, using a dev kv and trying multiple methods hashed and unhashed, dev pirs and dev live, to no avail. Could you go into detail how to do it via le fluffie?

 

Thanks for the tip on the SDK!!

edit: Deep3r, how would you do it if its a demo to a retail game thats been unpacked?

 

I used some combination of DevResigner and Yaris for most things. I never did figure out the exact combination hah, but it worked.

 

I don't think you can convert a demo game to a full retail, that's seperate to XBLA unlocks. The actual content is different and or missing.

I've got the package dev signed, never used yaris swap, I'll take a look into it though, cheers mate.

 

FOUND THE ANSWER!

The newer recoveries must have some sort of protection, because I just booted up Peggle 2 on 20353 and its a full game.
