The Xbox hard disk is formatted in FATX (File Allocation Table for Xbox) which has a 4GB (4096 Megabyte) maximum file size, and only supports file/folder names up to 42 characters, a maximum of 255 character full path, and a maximum number of 4096 files/folders in a single folder, plus in the root of each partition, the maximum number of files/folders is 256.

The ISO 9660 format has a 2 GB (Gigabyte) maximum file size, which cannot be bypassed. A workaround is to burn discs in the ISO 9660 format.

XDK and Xbox specific software limitations
#Fatx format tool xbox 360 code
The Xbox has four non-standard USB ports but the Xbox SDK does not contain a full USB stack, thus to add support for USB hardware devices, the developer would have to code the entire USB stack from scratch.Xbox hard drive file system (FATX) has many limitations, among them a maximum file name length of 42 characters.Only a single process ( executable program) can run at a time on the Xbox.Everything else must go into the main executable and its (XDK and own-made) libraries.The Xbox does not have an operating system per se, instead it only has a simple BIOS.Also required to compile (and program in) is Microsoft Visual Studio. The Xbox Software Development Kit (SDK) (with libraries) is required to compile video games and applications for the Xbox.Compiling games and applications for the Xbox Because of the constraints on the hardware and environment of the Xbox, all software development for the Xbox (and all video game consoles systems in general) are focused on reserving the limited resources that exist, the main limitation of which is the amount of available RAM.

The Xbox BIOS is based on the NT 5.0 kernel, but does not have all of the resources or capabilities of the Windows 2000 operating system, (for example: neither DirectShow, registry, or DLL are natively supported on the Xbox). Bundled with XDKs is the Xbox 360 SDK used to connect to the console, enable memory editing, file management, and integrate to Visual Studio 2010 for Xbox 360 game development. Xbox 360 XDKs were based on all three generations of the Xbox 360 Design ("Phat" "Slim" "E"), XNA Kits (Were used at some expos and given to game studios), Stress Kits (Used to test the power of the Xbox 360 and various conditions such as undervolting and overvolting and issued to Microsoft developers only), and Demo kits (Used to demo games) Some, but not all, XDKs include a sidecar which was used to emulate the DVD drive and act as a hard drive and on older XDKs with older recoveries, used for PIX Debugging. The XDK allows software creators to create, run and distribute applications on the Xbox platform.

The key will then be reformatted by the system into the FATX format.Īddendum: It's been pointed out to me by several readers who have attempted this that not all USB keys will work. If all has gone well the XBOX will recognize the key as a memory card and state that there is an error. Either way you'll need to go back and repeat Steps 2-4 after restripping the wires. If the former is the case, you've probably toasted your USB key.

If not, you've either wired the cables incorrectly or haven't established a good enough electrical connection with the soldering. If you've joined the wires correctly the USB key should light up be recognized by the system. Plug an empty USB key (preferably a small, cheap one you don't care about) into end of the cable you made. Plug a controller and the cable into two controller ports on the XBOX.
