GrimGriefer 1 Posted June 28, 2015 Hello everyone, In the past on Xbox Console A I would ftp all of the title updates and folders inside the Data->Title Updates->Random Number folder in Freestyle dash to a USB drive and then go to Xbox Console B and ftp the same files and folders into the random number folder of its own. Then simply do a rescan and it would add in all of the latest title updates for the games. When I try to do the same in Aurora it never picks up that there is a lot of title updates already in the random number folder. Telling Aurora to force a title update rescan doesn't do anything either. Is there a way around this so I don't have to redownload all of the title updates on Console B again? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks you do realize that the TU's in FSD, are not the actual locations they go right?? TU's go into "hdd:/content/(titleID)/000B0000/" if you pull all of those instead, i bet Aurora will read them ;-) use 360 content manager to SMB the drive in FSD, and pull all TU's.. then swap to Aurora and FTP them back.. and aurora will show them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrimGriefer 1 Posted June 29, 2015 you do realize that the TU's in FSD, are not the actual locations they go right??

The good thing about it was (assuming the folder locations are consitant) it was easy to just move all of the TU's between consoles and Freestyle would auto add them in at the next scan. Today I took my archive of TU's that I had from aurora and used a bulk renamer to rename each folder inside the GameID folder to 000B0000 and then FTP'd that to the Content\0000000000000000. Once I rebooted Aurora and rescanned for title updates it found them all and added them into the cache without any issue. I thought all was good until I went to play a game and then returned to Aurora again. For some reason all of the scanned in games in the list had disappeared and whenever I tried to rescan the folder location for them it would fail. I deleted Aurora and restored a fresh copy of 5b and tried the same again and ended up with the same result. Not sure if its a bug or I am expecting to much from this release.

You need each TU to be located like so: Hdd1:\Content\000...00\TitleId\000B0000\ TitleId is different for each title... If that's how you had them, send me your databases and a log of you trying to start it up after the problem occurs and i'll look into it and see what's going on as time permits it...

If that's how you had them, send me your databases and a log of you trying to start it up after the problem occurs and i'll look into it and see what's going on as time permits it... Turns out I was the problem. I hadn't noticed that the hard disk was full so this was obviously preventing the database to complete and causing all of the games in the list to disappear. Sorry for the confusion. So the best way I found of migrating was to copy the title updates from console A onto my computer and clear up all of the empty folders from TU changes with Treesize Free Edition and follow that with the Bulk Renaming Utility to rename all folders with a minimum character length of 9 characters to be 000B0000. Then FTP the GameID folders into the 0000000000000000 folder on console B and instruct Aurora to do a TU scan followed by a TU clean so I am not duplicating TU's for games I don't play that often but like to still keep on the disk. Finally I connect to HDD1 via SMB through Freestyle and delete all of the 000B0000 folders in the 0000000000000000 folder to start fresh with the reboot of Aurora. I realise some of those steps are way OTT but it works for my piece of mind. One request I would make if possible, when a game has a new TU become available I usually download it and delete the old TU. This removes the TU from the cached data in Aurora but not the original containing folder inside the GameID folder. Is deleting the folder aswell something that could be added to a future Aurora release so that we don't end up with lots of empty folders? Thanks as always.

Probably, might want to put a thread about it in the suggestions/requests section, that way the request won't get lost by everything else Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
