So I got my cousin to lend me KOTOR on christmas and I checked compatability, and it says it can play on 360.
Well I put the disc in, and it says its not compatible. Is this a known issue? I searched anfd found nothing on this. Can someone who owns this check for me if they have a 360?
For record its a Platinum hits version, thanks in advance.

>>321588418
Okay, it says I need to update. But I have no internet connection with this thing. Do I seriously need a seperate Wi-fi adapter?
The default Microsoft ones are like 59 bucks
>>321588974
Thats nice and all, but I'm trying to play the console version. And I want to get this to work, because If I don't, No Xbox titles will.
>>321589262
I posted that link because the amount of time and effort it would take for you to troubleshoot KOTOR can be saved by dropping 3 bucks and running it on whatever computer you are posting from.
Hell you can even play it on your phone now
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/star-wars-knights-old-republic/id611436052?mt=8
>>321589584
Yes, and I appreciate that, but I don't run games via PC, and I'm only borrowing the copy. I'd like to get it to work before I resort to PC.
Mainly because I want to use my 360 for Xbox titles period. and if this is an issue, i'd like it adressed first.
Emulation isnt always the answer.
>>321590017
It's not emulation if it was designed for that platform. And yes, you need to download the title update from the Xbox live marketplace to play kotor on 360
>>321590017
>Emulation isnt always the answer.
What emulation nigga? It was released on pc.
>>321590017
It's not emulation, KOTOR exist both on PC and phone.
>>321589584
>>321590356
Well follow this guy's advice and you are good to go. Unfortunately since you have an older model 360 there is no built in WiFi. You will have to get an Ethernet cable and connect it directly to your router and get the update.
Hope you like the game, it's in my top 10.
>>321590356
Where would I go to download it? I'm on the Xbox site, but I can't find what I need to burn to disc.
>>321590624
>>321590379
>>321590017
Same dif. My PC is crap and I'd rather not have slowdowns every step. and my phone isnt anywhere near good enough to run that
>>321590709
Mine works just fine, is your model of 360 the white elite?
>>321590709
You have to go to the Xbox live marketplace to get the update for the game.
Also if you are worried about slowdown on your pc from KOTOR, keep in mind it came out circa 2003. So pretty much any computer made in the last 10 years can run it with little effort
>>321590709
>Same dif. My PC is crap
So fucking what? Game was released in 2003, even tamagotchi could run it.
>>321590904
its the fat original one. I got it in 2008 or something. Barely use it.
>>321590982
How compatibility is achieved[edit]
According to Microsoft, each game needs an emulation profile to run. These profiles can be downloaded via the Xbox Live service or from Xbox.com and burned on CD or DVD recordable media.
>>321591007
You underestimate how crap my PC is dude. I run on Windows ME.
>>321591214
>I run on Windows ME
>>321591094
It would probably be less effort to hook up your Xbox to the internet with a direct connection and downloading the update through the console marketplace.
Op has got to be one of the stupidest fucking niggers I've seen in a while
>>321591214
>this close to 2016

>>321591623

>>321591214
Windows fucking ME? Lol
What in the fuck, man
>>321591643
Windows 8/10 gives me nothing that I don't need. I don't use a PC for Vidya, thats what the consoles are for. I use it for groundbreak coding, and newer OS' just complicate things. All I need is Printshop Cblock and a recyclebin with notepad.
>>321591785
Poverty
>>321590017
so fucking update your console dipshit
>>321591807
Cool Man U sound good wit computers then why u so shit at troubleshooting a console issue a 13 year old could solve?
>>321591807
So was there a point when you looked at computers and went "nah it's just a fad"? And how do you not understand the basics of the console that you own?
>>321591807
Confirmed troll
You should have at least claimed to be running xp, troll
Nobody will believe that someone even remotely computer savvy would still be bumbling around on Me, one of the worst OSs Microsoft ever released
Windows Me was a goddamned abortion
8/10 made me reply again
>>321592015
A. I don't have, use or want Xbox live, and ot do so requires a $50 adapter thingy
B. If I could I would. I'm trying to do it manual but it wont accept the burned disc.
>>321592163
I don't usually need to troubleshoot a console. And I never use discs, I use USBs, so this is mostly a first. I know how to burn a disc, I just dont do it normally.
>>321592429
No. I just don't care for modern programs. I'm comfortable doing comercial work in Printshop. I have no need for Adobe or any of those high end cloud synced programs. too many functions I'll never use. Just a basic wordpad and a code editor is perfect for building things. Its like someone who prefers to do simple mathmatics to get an answer instead of some retarded algebraic expression just to shave off a few minutes.
Same answer, same destination.
>>321592686
Anon... Are you trying to play the PC version in you Xbox?
>>321588418
kotor works like shit on the xbox 360, youd best get an original xbox.
plus, then you'll be able to play the xbox exclusive you can't actually play anywhere else.
that or just get the steam version
>>321592686
>>321592686
That's like walking cross country instead of taking a car or even a plane.
>>321591827
>poverty
if he's so poor to have windows me, he shouldn't play video games in the first place
>i don't use pc for gamimg that's what consoles are for
except pc gaming surpass consoles. especially now that consoles are really just overpriced pc anyway
>>321592686
What the fuck
Windows ME can't even run half the shit you would be coding in the modern day, unless you write shit for old, old, old, old, old ass shit that nobody uses anymore.
Do you work on legacy systems the Gov't uses or some shit? That's how old what you'd be using would be.
>>321592686
I don't think you deserve help.
Not every 360 has backwards compatibility. Does yours have an external or internal hard drive?
>>321593184
No. He's trolling and full of shit. Nobody is THIS much of an idiot, poorfag, and nigger all at once.
>>321592852
No.
I have an XBOX version of the game, The original. A platinum hits version that my cousin let me borrow yesterday along with KOTOR 2 and Rebel strike.
My 360 has literally not been used in 4 years. I own 2 games for it, Dead rising, and AC6. So it hasnt been updated, I still ahve the old dashboard menu
I'm trying to play the OG Xbox game on the 360. But I need an update to do so, and since I do not have live, and to connect to the internet, I require a $50 adapter, I'm trying to burn the update patch to disc, and install it manually.
>>321592994
Taking it slow isnt a crime. I don't have to do things the fast way like everyone else do I? I'm more comfortable in older programs Just how it is. They had me working with Adobe photoshop CS2 at my old job and I couldnt stand it, and Now I understand they're at CS5? No thanks.
>>321593108
Not poor. Matter of preference. Printshop and codeblock are too old to run on your new age OS's. I gain nothing by upgrading, and I lsoe everything I'm comfortable with. I have tons of Win ME and 98 programs I like and use.
>>321593418
At no point did I say it was a crime. All I'm saying is that you're a retard.
>>321591827
It was released in 2003 so windows me was probably the target system anyway
>>321593582
To each their own then.
>>321593306
It has an external, the silver thing on the end is the HDD right? I dont have any external hard drives like, 1tb external hooked up or anything.
>>321593418
>Printshop and codeblock are too old to run on your new age OS's.
>Latest update for both is december 2015
>own an XBox
>havent played anything in 4 years, only own 2 games
>>321593605
Windows Me end of support was in 2003.... XP came out in 2001
Me had a life of less than a year. That's how bad it was
>>321593951
I think Windows 98 is superior in every way to Windows ME. ME was a failure, no applications ever targeted it.
>>321593346
Oy..
I'm not a retard guy, I just don't update my PC, why is that hard to understand? I have a Wii-U and a PS4. I use and love modern day consoles.
I just have no reason to spend $500 on some new end PC i'll never use. YOu guys play games on your rigs, and thats cool, but I have no desire for that. I like my computer the way it is, I use those programs daily. With a new windows 10 model, i'll lose all of that luxury, and be forced into your touch screen app generation, and i just want none of that.
I have no desire to play games on PC. I just don't. And even if someone bought me a new age PC Id probably just junk it. I'm just not interested.
>>321593810
OG printshop. Not whatever the newest one is. Highest I'll go is 3. I don't like it as much, but I can stomach it.
>>321594191
If you're so bad with this shit how are you even on 4chan?
>>321594191
What the fuck are you even doing here? You're the very definition of casual, you're everything wrong with the current state of the industry and you're behaving like an 80 year old who can't keep up with the times.
I work on COBOL, Delphi and C programs, some of which are just text based. I still work on Delphi 7, but I manage my C programs with VS 2015 and Eclipse for COBOL.
There's literally no reason to work like that, unless you're proud of delivering SHIT.
>>321594768
I'm a /g/ user first and foremost. I rarely come to /v/. but i figured you guys would be more helpful in this matter, didnt expect this scrutiny.
I'm not the only one either. lots of people prefer older OS's. I'm savvy with newer ones, my daughter has a windows 8 model, I jsut don't like it myself, nor do I want one. MY PC is my personal computer, why should I need to deck it out with things I find useless to me?
>>321594885
I applaud you for doing so then, and I'm sure you do fine work. but I just can't bring myself to use anything outside my comfort zone. it's worked for 34 years, so why change it?
>>321594191
There were several other OSes between Me and the "touchscreen" shit with 8. PCs are not that expensive.
Seriously you picked Windows ME as the OS for your bullshit troll story. Nobody but the dumbest of fuckfaces would have picked that OS to stick with, for this long, 12 years past its end of support, with the tiny gap between its release and XPs
Tldr sharpie in pooper and tits or gtfo, you stupid fucking faggot
>>321595346
I dont understand your logic. whats so bad about ME? Please explain this to me.
>Its compatible with my Windows 98 programs
>Offers some Windows ME based programs PSD3, CTT+, JAGT, CCER etc.
>Simple and efficient
I guess XP isnt too bad no, but i don't see the perks to going beyond it. I've had this thing for years, so its special to me.
>>321595583
adding:
Its my understanding most Systems dont support backwards compatability to further programs.
Will XP still run my 98 AND ME programs? The PS4 doesnt play PS3 games, and thats only one generation down. I'm fify on anything newer because of that corporate mentality.
Microsoft just moved ahead and threw out everything that made it good. like they did with the new Xbox one. How can I be sure its not the same?
If i sound jaded, well.. i am. I don't like change.
>>321595583
>what's so bad about using an ancient product that was worse in nearly every aspect than the products before and after it
>>321595190
>I'm a /g/ user first and foremost
>Windows ME
I just don't see it.
>>321595841
Prove to me what is better then. I'm not angry, i'm curious. If the programs i'm comfortable with aren't offered, then I don't see a reason, and I don't want to upgrade to "The next best thing". in the form of some other program that isnt what I'm used to.
>>321595190
/v/ is about discussing video games, not troubleshooting your problems. Someone on yahoo answers probably has had a similar problem to what you're experiencing. You might just have to do virtual OS stuff for your coding if you upgrade and switch to PC.
>>321595819
How are you a fucking developer and simultaneously this wrong about application compatibility
Answer the earlier question. What in gods name are you developing for that can be built in Me. Even the oldest cots based dod systems are on embedded xp.
>>321590017
Kill yourself.
>>321596090
This
Get the fuck outta here with your Windows Me fucking shitshow
>>321596090
Apologies, it wasnt troubleshooting as much as asking wht a game doesnt work for a system. The PC stuff was only ebcause people started inquiring about it.
>>321596162
Spreadsheets, I make spreadhseets and tables for websites to use,
>>321596291
You do that on a system who doesn't support an HTML5 browser?
>>321596291
No... No you don't
You don't do shit with web development on a system that hasn't had security updates in 12 fucking years.
"Spreadsheets "
With codeblock? And what else? Microsoft fucking works?
Ngga pls
>This guy is particular with his OS system
>Doesn't have a WORK computer and a Day-to-day computer
>>321596409
Netscape doesnt use HTML5
>>321596431
I hand draw them in Printshop
>>321596609
Why would you hand draw spreadsheets when HTML1 already had a table system? Shit, bootstrap can even make them look decent.
You need no software to do that, just Notepad.
>>321596609
I'm pretty sure Printshop is what I used to make thank you cards when I was a child.
>>321596852
because its more fun. its simple to use, good set of colors, and I can make the tables any shape I want.
>>321596923
And you can make tables with just the square tool and the text tool. It makes more then jsut cards.
Op is a fantastic troll
12/10 would kek again tbcfh, familia
>>321597043
You could do that with fucking MSPaint.
>>321597191
MSpaint as far as I know, doesnt have rulers or guide lines and only has 8 colors to choose.
With printshop I can copy a box I made, paste it as many times needed, and line them up each one by one to form a perfect chart.
>>321597191
Not to mention what's the fucking point of a spreadsheet without calculations, and what use does it serve in a webpage to begin with, especially without any actual data. What's he tryin to do, crunch numbers manually then draw the results in a bmp?
Op uses codeblock to fuck his own ass
Op, I have already given you your troubleshoot answers. Hook up your 360 to the internet through a direct connection and download the update through the consoles marketplace. At this point, you are just arguing about why you have made your choice in OS.
Don't
Go play the game, at this point you are just flaming
>>321597327
Now that's just factually incorrect.
>>321588418
As >>321592874 says the 360 has issues. I tried replaying on 360 and there is a lot of audio issues (constant stuttering or just doesn't play some sounds/dialogue) and stuttering video.
I'd recommend just waiting to either play on xbox or PC (3 bucks on steam right now) so you aren't constantly frustrated by technical issues
What a strange thread
>>321597409
I think there's online tools better than what OP's using.
>>321597701
Alright fine.. Since this wont seem to work, i'll try PC... but im telling you, i dont think it'll work with ME.
Solution
You're welcome OP
>>321598196
adding:
Can i get a refund if it doesnt and if so how? it seems wasteful to spend 3 dollars on something that likely wont work
>>321598297
You won't be able to install steam on Me
>>321598297
I know for a fact that this game works on ME because I had ME when I played this game.
Steam on the other hand...
holy shit this thread is golden.
thank you whoever you are you magnificent bastard of an op

is it only steam? i thought it was on pc?
>>321598671

I have a windows ME OS, not a tower. it takes USB.
>>321599394
Kek
>>321599394
No tower?
False alarm guys. No tower. Everyone back inside
>>321599394
ME only takes USB 1.0 tho.
>>321599737
No worries he also has a Zip drive
>>321599698
No, I mean I have a modern tower. my old one didnt survive 10 years. well, sorta modern.. its an HP pavillion my friend got me for about $200 2 years ago. I just loaded it with ME and deleted whateevr was on it.
>>321599737
I know. i dont need much space.
>>321599864
You installed an OS onto a computer when the hardware in the computer is only two years old and therefore would have no drivers available either in the OS or from the manufacturer?
Neat trick
>>321599864
USB versions are for speed.
>>321599976
its not hard if you know what you're doing.
>>321600075
Did you code the drivers to make newer hardware work on a 12 year old OS in paint shop too, you fucking faggot?
>>321600210
Print shop, not paint shop.
And no, I run it through an emulator.
>>321600371
You run what through an emulator?
Now he's just throwing words from other threads into here
>>321600445
I'm jiggy with it
Well this thread sees like the right place if any to post my issue:
Im playing Kotor 2 with the restored content mod and it keeps crashing after the turret section on Peragus. How do I fix it?
>>321600692
Apparently, print shop
Ok who gives a fuck about this ME using fuck. You are all being trolled I swear to god.
ANYWAY, The earlier KOTOR/KOTOR II thread got me wanting to play the game again but it appears to be a buggy freezing fucking mess under Win7. Is there any current set of instructions to get the thing to be more fucking stable? I randomly lock up just running around the Endar Spire. Sometimes immediately, sometimes after random combat, sometimes checking objects for loot.
>>321590017
>Emulation isnt always the answer.
>Is literally asking how to emulate on a 360
10/10
>>321600813
Running it in compatibility mode usually fixed most of my issues, also turning off steam overlay
>>321600917
Not even running the steam version. Just running an old retail copy patched to 1.03. Already in XP 2 compatibility and running as admin. Some suggest disabling HW Mouse but that makes the mouse inaccurate as fuck. Others suggest disabling Framebuffer effects, but that kills some of the few graphical effects the game has. I must admit I haven't tried fucking with core affinity as of yet.
>>321601271
mmmm, its been ages since i used non-steam version sadly, though ill be honest the lock up thing happens even then though not nearly as much. You basically either have to switch to a different party member and mover around as them for a brief period. Or save/load, it's frustrating but, old games man.
back to the subject at hand..
the update disc didnt work.. the game sitll wont play. I tried reinstalling the update disc and it says your console is up to date
any ideas why it does this?
Just play it on PC
>>321601715
No.
>>321601504
Connect your 360 directly to your modem or router, and download it straight from the console Xbox marketplace.
And update your fucking Xbox. And your os. You know what? Just to be safe, replace everything electronic in your house.
>>321601852
Cant. Router is in another room across the house, so manual is out.
I downloaded the update and burned it to disc, and put it in, it dopwnloaded the update, so why wont it work?
the house is from 1930s, its been updated when they put in electric lighting and gas pumps a while back. its fine
>>321601504
Is that a fucking tube TV?
>>321602106
Trinitron CRT
>>321602006
Then move your tv and Xbox to the router.

Woe is I.
>>321602641
Get /fit/. Seriously though, use a smaller tv that's in storage, or an hdmi cable and a computer monitor to hook up to the Xbox. Besides physically moving it to the router I don't know what other options you have seeing as how your burned disc update didn't work. Well besides updating your shit to be at least from this decade.
Guys, this isnt working.
I've got the old boxed game. What mods are necessary?
I've heard the restored content mod is good. But, should I install it after the official update?

>>321603552
Use your monitor with the 360. Move those into the room with the router.
Then take your tv and let it rest. It had a hard life.
>>321604693
So I hooked up the monitor via ethernet. its still giving me errors.
I just dont think its going to work.
