Track & Field (XBLA) #163

The Xbox 360 will close in late July, there's still a few games on the shop to extract ROMs from. Releases by Backbone usually have a folder named "classic" containing a file named [name of game].rom from which you can extract the individual files required for the ROM. This also works with trial versions, by the way. Most XBLA titles can be copied to a USB drive and then copied to a PC using wxPirs, no hardware or software mods required.

I've found a set of instructions to extract the ROM from the XBLA version of Track & Field on a Japanese blog, using the above method and bcut.exe. Create a new batch file with these instructions:

bcut TrackAndField.rom a01_e01.bin 0 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom a02_e02.bin 0x2000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom a03_k03.bin 0x4000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom a04_e04.bin 0x6000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom a05_e05.bin 0x8000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c2_d13.bin 0xA000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c11_d06.bin 0x12000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c12_d07.bin 0x14000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c13_d08.bin 0x16000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c14_d09.bin 0x18000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom h16_e12.bin 0xC000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom h15_e11.bin 0xE000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom h14_e10.bin 0x10000 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom c9_d15.bin 0x1A220 0x2000 bcut TrackAndField.rom 361b16.f1 0x1A000 0x20 bcut TrackAndField.rom 361b17.b16 0x1A020 0x100 bcut TrackAndField.rom 361b18.e15 0x1A120 0x100

Then paste the batch file to the same folder as TrackAndField.rom and bcut.exe, then execute the batch file. However, the instructions seem to be missing an offset for c9_d15.bin. I'm not sure what to look for inside of the file, does anyone have a heads-up on what the missing offset could be?

Thank you very much, I've updated the commands!
