General Information
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
X360FExT (XBOX / XBOX360 File Extraction Tool) is a simple tool designed to
help users that wish to open XBOX and XBOX360 images to extract specific files
or all files.
Back in May 05 we noticed that due to someone hacking the server which our
website / forums were held on (free hosting) some of our 'Internal only' tools
managed to find their way onto the 'Internet'. The tools were not 'Internal'
because they were special in anyway, they were just never finsihed off!
So, after having a whip round, we came up with some cash for some proper web
hosting, Tzone (ADR's web master) re-designed our website to include forums in
preparation for some new ADR Tools.
This week we have already released XBEAT-Lite Public (XBE Analyser Tool) today
we follow that with the Public version of our original XBOX File Extraction
Tool, originally written over 3 years ago by our old Coder MacTheFork. It was
originally coded so that I 'Mookie' could extract 'Default.xbe' files from
various XBOX images for BETA Mod Fixing.
Enigma (ADR's new Coder) has gone through our old source code, tidied it up,
fixed a few problems and added support for PI's *.360 images. Thanks to PI
for supplying Fifa_06_PAL_XBOX360 image for testing.
The new application has been tested on a P3 500MhZ, 384 MB RAM, WINXP.
It took 9 mins 43 seconds to extract a 5.78 Gig image using our tool as opposed
to 10 mins 34 seconds extracting the same image using the PI xtract360.exe
*** NOTE ***
to the people that took our private tools (when our free hosting server was
hacked) :
XBEAT 3.9.2 BETA (Internal) - please delete that tool and replace it with XBEAT
Lite! XBEAT 3.9.2 BETA contains the wrong information for region codes, as well
as wrong DEBUG mode checks and various other problems we had not addressed at
that time, our last Internal build of that tool was 3.9.6 so u can imagine a
few bug fixes have been done since that version was leaked!
XBOX iSO File Extractor 1.0 (Internal) - please delete that tool and replace it
with X360FExT v1.0. The old XBOX iSO File Extractor was written over 3 years
ago and was never bug fixed!
Please be aware that any tool made by ADR-UK intended for public release would
be accompanied with a nfo and adrcheck.exe to make sure people have not been
changing our tools and files! If they don't contain those within the zip file,
then you could be downloading any sort of fake or infected file!

Features
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Opens valid XBOX / XBOX360 Images :
*.iso
*.gi
*.360
2) Allows you to extract a single file or ALL files from within IMAGE.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please extract all files contained within this zip to your hard drive and run
the 'adrcheck.exe'. If all files pass verification, then run the X360FExT
program.
1) File - Open Image
2) Select your 'Files of type' :
*.iso (default)
*.gi
*.360
3) 'File Name' :
Browse to the image, and OPEN.
4) Use the 'explorer' to expand the folder and you will see a list of all files
contained within the image.
5) Highlight a file and select the EXTRACT button to save to a location on your
HDD.
OR
If you wish to extact all the files within the image, select EXTRACT ALL button
to save to a location on your HDD.
That's all there is to it!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Feedback
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you spot any problems with extraction, please post on the ADR Forums in the
appropriate section, telling us what image file you tested it on (filenames)
so that we can look into any issues. There's that many different tools out
there all claiming to build valid XDFS images, we're bound to hit a few snags!
