A command line utility created by in to allow the creation, modification, and extraction of XISOs. Currently being maintained and modernized by the XboxDev organization.
Notice: 64-bit builds can work but have been known to create faulty images. Until this is fixed, use 32b builds.
-
Create XISOs from a directory.
-
Extract XISO content to a directory.
-
Multi-Platform and Open-Source.
The extract-xiso utility can run in multiple modes: create, list, rewrite, and extract.
Create an XISO from a directiory.
# Create halo-2.iso in the current directory containing the files within ./halo-2.iso
./extract-xiso -c ./halo-2
# Create halo-ce.iso in the /home/me/games directory containing files in the ./halo-ce directory
./extract-xiso -c ./halo-ce /home/me/games/halo-ce.iso
List the file contents within an XISO file.
# Get file contents of a XISO
./extract-xiso -l ./halo-ce.iso
# List file contents of multiple XISOs
./extract-xiso -l ./halo-2.iso ./halo-ce.iso
Rewrites filesystem structure of an XISO.
# Rewrites XISO
./extract-xiso -r ./halo-ce.iso
# Can be batched
./extract-xiso -r ./halo-ce.iso ./halo-2.iso
Extract XISO contents to a directory.
# Default mode when no arguments given, extracts to ./halo-ce/
./extract-xiso ./halo-ce.iso
# Can be given a target directory
./extract-xiso ./halo-2.iso -d /home/games/halo-2/
extract-xiso has a few optional arguments that can be provided in different modes:
-d <directory> In extract mode, expand xiso in <directory>.
In rewrite mode, rewrite xiso in <directory>.
-D In rewrite mode, delete old xiso after processing.
-h Print this help text and exit.
-m In create or rewrite mode, disable automatic .xbe
media enable patching (not recommended).
-q Run quiet (suppress all non-error output).
-Q Run silent (suppress all output).
-s Skip $SystemUpdate folder.
-v Print version information and exit.
- cmake
- make
- gcc
After requirements are installed with your distribution's package manager (or homebrew for macOS), open terminal and change directory to the project root. Then run the following build commands:
# Clone Repo
git clone https://github.com/XboxDev/extract-xiso.git
# cd into directory
cd extract-xiso
# Create working directory
mkdir build
cd build
# Build project
cmake ..
make
The compiled binary should now be in the extract-xiso/build directory as extract-xiso.
