I downloaded Mame-X from newsgroups. In the Read Me file, it says:

"You then should create an gdf format iso (there are xbox iso creation tools floating around find one)" of the rom directory.

I've searched Google and I cannot find anything to do this. I'm not sure I really understand what I'm supposed to do, but hopefully the right tool would do it for me.

Does anyone know where I can find this tool and how to properly apply it?

Thanks for your help.

You dont need to create an xbox iso, you can just burn it as a new data cd in Nero or Primo.

This is the exact wording of the text file:

"You should place you mame roms in the roms folder either in zipped format or in unzipped format (I recommend zipped format). Don't ask where to get roms, I don't know.

You then should create an gdf format iso (there are xbox iso creation tools floating around find one) of the directory I described above. Burn the resulting iso to the media of your choice (from testing DVD-RW works best less read errors and less times you have to reboot or eject to get the xbox to recognize the media). Now the easy part, boot the xbox with the disc in the drive, it is working if you see a list of games. If it doesn't work at this point try rebooting the xbox if it still doesn't work then you must have done something wrong."

Are you saying that I don't need to do this. Just add the Mame roms to the roms directory and burn it to disc as is?
