Retrieving data from the device?

omegagames · 07-16-2008, 07:58 AM

So is there any known way yet to get data off of the zune that's created in a game? For example, if I made a paint program, could I find any way to take my masterpieces off of the device and onto my pc (where I would inevitably print them, hang them in a gallery, and become rich and/or famous)?

Also side question, where's a good place for free sound effects? I just need the basic "bloop", "click", and fanfare type sounds.

No possibility to access the data from PC yet.

Where does XNA games studios put the game files on the zune. If you have your zune so you can access it as a hardrive, the files don't exist... They arn't even hidden. Where could they be?

That's what I figured. I was hoping there might be a way to move at least some filetypes (like pictures or songs) to the main zune memory, making them accessible from the pc.

Or even hacking up some way to do it... but if there's no access to the Zune's storage area for games, this is a very improbable feat indeed.

Thanks for the link!
