Simple app — if using RAR, it will extract the ISO from the archive then transfer ISO contents on the fly to the 360, then rename the $SystemUpdate folder. If using ISO it will just extract on the fly and again, rename the $SystemUpdate folder.
** For FSD2 compatibility “360 Game Directory” must contain leading forward slash! /hdd1/games/ not hdd1/games/ **
** Spaces are allowed anywhere besides in the ISO name **

What’s new/fixed (since v2.6):
v3: added batch support. changed bat files to cmd files so they close on their own.
v2.8: fixed space/no space bug, spaces allowed anywhere besides in the ISO file name.
fixed rar batch file !! ALL rips prior to 2.8 using RAR method will still have $SystemUpdate Folder !!
v2.7: applications path may now contain spaces (ex: c:\my folder\RarTo360\”)

Insomnica released a new version of Mousepatcher:

What is Mousepatcher 2.0?
Mousepatcher aims to keep your Xbox 360 safe online by patching the Security Sector data on the ISO with version 2 SS/DMI data, which has been recommended by c4eva.
Mousepatcher 2.0 is a complete rewrite from the original, and now automatically patches the ISO with SSv2 data without you having to traverse the internet to find files for yourself.

No Fuss, No Hassle
With the autopatch function, all you have to do is drag and drop the ISO image into the program.
Then the program will find the required SSv2 files and automatically download and patch them.
You’ll no longer have to track down SSv2 files on the internet beforehand!

Intelligent Patching Controls
But if you have your own SSv2 files, Mousepatcher 2.0 is here to help manually patch.
With it’s safety mechanisms, you can drop the SS or DMI file in a random order and the program will decide which file it is!
