How to unlock the With Great Honor achievement

  • Removed Gamer

    Please note that this isn't a guide on how to earn the achievement but how to possibly fix it if you have already unlocked for it to not sync up to Xbox.com and correctly stick on your gamertag.

    This should apply to following well known glitched achievements, I imagine it'd work for others as well if you've been unfortunate:

    Mix It Up!

    Five Of Your Best
    DiRT 2 (GFWL)Five Of Your BestThe Five Of Your Best achievement in DiRT 2 (GFWL) worth 72 pointsWin 5 Pro Tour races over Games for Windows - LIVE.


    The fix consists of rebuilding your Games for Windows Live profile and is simple to do.

    What you'll need to do is go to the relevant folder in Windows for where this data is stored.

    For Windows 7 / Vista it'll look like this:
    C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft

    For XP it'll look like this:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Application Data\Local\Microsoft

    You should see two folders in here named "GFWLive" and "XLive". All you need to do is rename them, do not delete them.

    A safe way of renaming them, as well as reminding yourself where they are if you need to restore them as backups is to rename them as such:

    "OLD_GFWLive"
    "OLD_XLive"

    Simply put "OLD_" at the start of the name.

    When you boot up the game, you'll need to manually sign in with your gamertag, what'll happen at this point is a complete download of your tag and its associated data as if you're redeeming it from scratch.

    This will also create new "GFWLive" and "XLive" folders.

    Once it has downloaded, you can try simply winning a race in single player. Once that's finished, the achievement should pop but this time should sync up to Xbox.com and therefore your gamertag!

    Confirm this by waiting a couple of minutes then checking online.

    Once confirmed you can do pretty much whatever you want with the backup folders, they're safe to delete at this point as you'll have fresh and more likely fully functional copies of the profile in the newly created folders.

    Erathia96I have the same problem as jamro did. Corrupt save file. Tried everything again and again, but no luck. Any other great ideas to get this to sync with xbox com ?

    ZENMASTR6555Seems like a no brainer that the file location in Windows 8 is the same as Windows 7, but when i try renaming the files, it still automatically signs me in. Any tips for what i'm doing wrong?

    Race without touching cars online (Pro Tour or Jam Session). Your icon next to your name should become green in the lobby. I think it's a cumulative counter, you won't gain it the first race you do without touching anyone, you have to drive cleanly multiple races, and you can still hit sometimes a car, as long as you don't do it too much or on purpose.
    Remember to use your brake when you're about to ram into someone :)
    I won it in a Jam Session, Domination.

    If like me, the 3 broken achievements were the last you need but would not update on xbox.com. This is what worked for me.

    In your Dirt 2 savegame folder the only file you should need to replace is - PGRRLTKJNZ
    Copy your old savegame folder to a safe location and delete the folder in the directory, then boot the game to create a fresh copy of the file.
    Now go back into your new savegame folder and copy the new version of the PGRRLTKJNZ file, delete the new folder, place your old savegame folder back in the directory and replace the file (PGRRLTKJNZ).

    Next make sure you have already completed the requirements for the remaining broken achievements you need in game.

    Now delete your GfWL profile from your system (If your not sure how follow the method described by Lolatron above)

    Now with your fresh profile, play any single player race and the achievement should pop again and sync. to xbox.com

    I previously tried every other possible combination to get the achievements to stick but after numerous attempts of deleting savegames and profiles and countless races, this was the process that stuck for me, and it updated on xbox.com straight away.

    I can only hope this will help anyone else that is waiting for a permanent fix.
