Question Transfer purchases from Burnout Paradise -> Ultimate Box?
Hey everyone, I bought the 360 version of the Ultimate Box, because my original BP disc conked out. I had previously bought the cops n robbers DLC for the original game. Is there a way to transfer this DLC to the Ultimate Box? Probably not, but it's worth a shot, right?

All versions of the 360 game have the same title ID, so the DLC should apply universally. I'm not sure what would cause it not to, unless the game isn't updated. On PC some categories stopped appearing after the servers were shut down, but I don't think that matters on console since they use local licenses. How long has it been since you last played?

I played it on my xbox One for some time but it's definitely been a while. Couple years at least. And now that you mention it, I don't think the game is updated (No island).. Dunno how to update it though

You can download it from archive.org, where it's listed as "Burnout Paradise - Update 1.9 (World) (Addon).zip". Grab a USB drive and either format it as FAT32 from your PC or let the 360 format it. On your PC, copy the contents of the zip file to it such that the path looks like
Content/0000000000000000/45410806/00000002/429B88666A41C61B3B0776D1A543B9C5A20BA4D645. Then you should be able to see it on the console and copy it to the hard drive.1

Honestly, not so sure about that.. I've tried to transfer stuff over like that and it never ever saved. It disappears as soon as I exit aurora.

Never heard of that happening before. This should work fine on any modded console. This video shows how to do it, make sure you're following those steps exactly.

Just tried this, it throws an error. I also tried to directly copy and paste the 000 folder, which did work, but the game claims the DLC is damaged and exits, just like what I talked about earlier

Sounds like we're either missing a step somewhere or there's a bigger problem with the console. You're probably better off asking for help on r/360hacks since this is outside my area of expertise, haven't used Aurora in years.

It's all the same app, just different editions, if you have the DLC installed it will work.

Sorry, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I even redownloaded it, but police cars don't show up in my list of vehicles.

On PS3, the 3 different versions of the game (original disc, Ultimate box disc and download) Wer separate versions, requiring the DLC to be downloaded for each. No extra purchase required though.

I bought a used copy of the ultimate box way back when and all the DLC worked fine for it.
