Xfire Profile Patcher

iconXPP makes patching Xfire with custom profiles a lot easier and faster! It patches the Xfire file “xfire_games.ini” with your custom game profiles so you can use unsupported and or modified profiles with Xfire. For those of you that prefers playing non-steam versions of games, there are a lot of ready-made profiles for games that already have been edited so you can play the game without Steam and with Xfire! It can also be set up to patch Xfire at computer start-up so you never need to keep track of when Xfire releases game definition updates and re-patch manually.
One of the main features is the built-in fetching of pre-made game profiles from a central DB, so you can easily get started when you have installed it and directly add some profiles for your favorite games you want patched.

It’s coded in VB.NET and uses the 4.0 .NET Framework.

Features:

  • Easy to use and does not take up any big resources
  • Game Manager for adding/removing games you want patched
  • 50 games+ non-steam game profiles out of box
  • Silent patch with -nogui parameter
  • Checks if Xfire is already patched
  • Adding games manually is possible
  • SharpDate auto updater
  • Takes a backup on the original file before patching
  • Easy customization of game profiles
  • Contribute with a game profile to the DB with the click of a button
  • Import/Export game profiles for easy backup

      wait….wait. nope this wont work for me, I downloaded this: 4.0 .NET Framework not compatible with win 7 x64. xfire can still detect non steam games anyways. they just have to be in, C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\. then set xfire to detect games at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam. and it works fine.

    can u add counter strike source

    • October 24, 2010 at 23:19

      Yeah of course, the reason I havn’t added it is that I don’t got the game, so I don’t know how you launch it. Xfire wants to know a way to launch it, maybe you can provide me with some information? Just right-click your shortcut to the game and select properties and then copy the whole ‘target’ field and write here 🙂 And I am “getting” the game atm so if you don’t reply back I will add it anyway tomorrow.

    • October 25, 2010 at 22:33

      As you didn’t reply (oh i’m suprised -.-) I got the game myself and now I have added it to the db. And to everyone that reads this, please write here if you get a problem with launching/detecting a game and I will help you. I also added CIV5 for your information.

    Hi sorry that i didn’t reply i forgot where i posted :/.
    Now the program doesn’t work i says ” Failed to check for updates: Unable to connect to updateserver! “

  6. November 7, 2010 at 17:48

    Well that’s just the updater that can’t connect, it doesn’t make the whole program unusable. Just click okay and start using the program. Either my update server was down atm or your computer’s firewall blocked my program. I will try to release final 2.0 version tonight that comes with improvements to the autoupdater. But you will need to download it here at the website because the autoupdater in beta 1 doesn’t work as expected.

    Can you include that in your next build?

  12. January 1, 2011 at 16:55

    Actually since version 2.0 it checks against a database to fetch the latest gameprofiles, so I don’t need to release a new version to add a new game 🙂

    I added the game now to the db so just click Manage Games and it should show up in the list of pre-defined gameprofiles! (Depending on your settings about updating gameprofiles)
    Thx for using my software.

    Oh Yea…, and happy new year 😀

    Love your work!

    • November 22, 2011 at 20:18

      Thank you 🙂
      I took the freedom to add another game too, so these games got added (a total of 5 profiles):

      Call of Duty MW3 MP & SP
      The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
      Saint’s Row The Third (DX9 and DX11)

      Enjoy!

    Hi there…

    I have to act the stupid one, but how do you use your software?? (I give everyone permission to roll their eyes at me, lol) but once I go into manage games, and leave it for a while to scan, it comes up with an error message saying “Error: Unable to update game profiles! Please check your internet connection and firewall! etc… I have allowed your program through my firewall with no problems and yes I have checked the internet connection…

    Any help on this will be greatly appreciated 🙂

    Kind regards
    Brian

    • January 28, 2012 at 11:50

      that is not a stupid question my friend! 🙂
      The current version has wrong url when connecting to fetch the gameprofiles (the url got changed some days ago). It is written here on the blog 😉
      Anyways, I am working on a new version with a lot of cleanups and better code + fix for the invalid url. I have come long with it, it is not much left to be done. Today I will release the new version of MKV Chapterizer with a small new feature and some fixes, then tomorrow I will go back to coding the last bit on XGP.
      But you know what, instead of keeping everyone waiting I’ll release a beta today too, without installer (just replace the old exe with the new). The beta works well, there are just some small bugs 🙂
      All of that should be done within about 10 hours or so, so check back!

    Haha, well thank you Cyb3rH4X :). I appreciate the kind reply and the great work that you do… I will be keeping my eyes and ears pealed to see what comes up. Good luck with finishing the XGP and sorting out all the bugs :).

    Thanks again for all your hard work 🙂

    Awesome, I just downloaded the beta version, and it works like a charm :D. Great work!!!

    • January 29, 2012 at 00:00

      Thank you! 😀
      Yeah as soon as I have released the next version of mkv chapterizer tonight I will go back to xgp and code on that until it is done. I have some ideas for better patching, but also some kind of game profile submit system, so everyone can contribute to the db 🙂

  18. Brian
    January 29, 2012 at 10:01

    Great stuff :). Ah, that sounds like a good idea, then everyone can add their own personal touch to it, and everyone can benefit :D. Looking forward to it 😉 …

    I don’t know if you’re still doing work on XPP, but I downloaded it tonight and attempted to patch for Skyrim, after I patched – Skyrim won’t run. I start Skyrim, and the Bethesda logo begins to display and then Skyrim quits.

    I don’t know if Xfire has updated their system since you last updated XPP, but it doesn’t seem to work anymore.

    After I restored the original file, the game loaded fine [Xfire still doesn’t detect it].

    • August 7, 2012 at 22:30

      Well, to be honest, I haven’t worked on it for a while due to another project taking all my time.
      But Xfire hasn’t changed so it should work. All XPP does is changing the way Xfire detects the game (and launch the game). So try to run Skyrim via the skyrim exe, and not via Xfire. Then it should start at least 🙂

      I’m not sure when or if I will pick up the development. A lot of stuff going on IRL. If I had all the time in the world, I would, definitely.

    Well, the way my desktop is customized, my start bar is hidden and I need to hit a keystroke command to unhide it [sreenshot – http://tinyurl.com/bou6fm5 taken a few months ago]. I was running skyrim from the exe file, and it was crashing. I’ll give it another shot, if it doesn’t work [and you don’t work on the XPP again], oh well.

  21. May 1, 2013 at 17:26

    just as soon as i start XFire Profile Patcher it pops out a window that say:SharpDate has stopped working
    can u help me with this? please
