Extra Info:

For anyone who doesn’t have Nero or is having trouble with burning this demo I recommend you give ImgBurn a try, it works as good as Nero and its free. Have a look at the Digiex guide: How to burn files and folders to a CD, DVD or Blueray Disc using ImgBurn.

Could you not get this if you created a Japanese account?

 

[InsaneNutter]

You could do for a short while but Capcom quickly region locked it meaning even with a Japanese account you needed to be using a Japanese 360 to download the demo.

This demo is not region locked

What im confused about is that the demo was divided into 5 rar files and you exctract the 1st one and put it on a disk. so what do you do with the rest of the files. if you exctract the others its the same size. can anyone give me detailed instructions or have the files in one big file. thanks.

 

[Safinn]

If it is in parts get all the parts in the same folder them extract the first one and it will put them all together and give you one file.

In the picture it just seems like there is one file and you just put that on the CD.

 

[InsaneNutter]

If you downloaded the demo from Digiex it will be one big rar file if you get it from the Digiex ftp server or un rar’ed ready to burn if you got the Digiex torrent.

With rar files you only need to extract one of them, the data is split across the multiple files so if you have successfully extracted it you good to go.

Make sure the folder structure on the DVD is like this screenshot and burn it.

I extract the 1st one it gives me the contents folder. do i move the other rar files into that folder or just leave the rars in the same folder? because if i do that it wont fit on to a CD-R which i heard people say they have been doing that to work.

Do you have it available for a Direct Download because i cannot use BT files. It slows down my isp. Its a local provider so they arnt much into torrents

 

[InsaneNutter]

Yes read my first post at the bottom where it says Digiex FTP - Europe, However the copy you have now should be fine.

Once you have extracted the rar’s you don’t need them anymore, don’t burn them. Just burn the content folder as in the guide above.

 

[gwcommander]

Hey thanks for the help i think i had an error extracting this morning. i put it on a CD-R just the 1st extracted file went to the demo and my system froze i may download this when i get home from work and try it. thanks for clearing it up. It makes me wonder how the 5 parts work. if your only extracting and burning the one part how dose it get the data from the others?

 

[InsaneNutter]

In a split rar achieve each file starts with either .rar then the next files are .r00, .r01, .r02 or .part01, .part02, .part03 and so on depending on the version of WinRar used.

When you open the first rar it knows it’s a split achieve and to carry on looking in .part02 and so on until it’s all been extracted.

Don’t worry if you have extracted the folder structure and the re5_demo file you have everything you need to burn.

 

[gwcommander]

hey thanks for the help. Cant wait to get this working tonight.

 

[muckers]

It works! Hooray!

Is there any way to install it to your 360 hard drive once you've burned it to disk? Some things seem to load a little slow (i'm guessing Capcom optimised the demo for loading from the HDD).

 

[InsaneNutter]

No you can’t install the demo, however if you have one of the SATA adaptors to connect the 360’s hard drive to your computer you can open up Partition 3 using Xplorer 360 then just copy the content folder from this download in to that and it will run from your 360’s hard drive.

 

[Trebor]

Thanks InsaneNutter. Why Capcom couldn't release this demo to everyone, I don't know. The game is coming out in the US and Europe 1 week after the Jap release I think. Anyway if it's all in English I can see if the game is any good (I loved RE4) and whether to buy it next year or not

Torrent:

I've added 4 more Seeding Boxes to this, so we are easily pushing out over 200mbit between all the boxes. 3 More Canadian ones and another UK one.

This should be a recorded for the fastest seeding Digiex Torrent


FTP:

The FTP on the other hand its stressing out with tons of downloads, its pushing out over 50mbit now. Still recommend to everyone for the fastest speed to use the torrent.

I burned it to a CD using imgburner and on the xbox 360 it said mixed media disc but when I go to my demos its not there. What did i do wrong?

 

[AntiNaz]

SmoothCheese, The exact same thing happend to me. I am also thinking of writing it to the HDD.

 

[AntiNaz]

How come whenever I try to burn the CD/DVD, it always says mixed media disk. I have gone through three disks already. Any advice?

 

[gwcommander]

OMG it works thank you guys so much. If your having trouble just make sure that when your burning it as a Data Disk that your copying the contents folder and not the resident evil folder. Then check and see if it shows up in your demos.
