That's exactly right. In the peer to peer model like this, the kills are decided by the host. Halo 2 was a client-side hit detection model. So while the clients still report back positioning to the server, the client decides if a hit took place and notifies the server of that.
-
the client xboxes have to send and receive updates to and from the xbox acting as a server. There is latency in both directions. The host xbox has no such thing. It doesn't need to wait on updates. It's current version of events is what the player on that xbox sees no matter the latency from the other xboxes. They never have any sort of lag at all while the other players do have some... even if it is small. It doesn't take much latency at all to give a HUGE advantage. That's why the host xbox wins more times than not.

It's called Halo NHE or neutral host edition https://halo1nhe.com/ The host xbox always has host advantage. People have done some videos to prove it. This make the host xbox an NPC and therefore nobody playing is hosting.

If you have a 1.0 or 1.1 you'll be fine.

007 everything or nothing - Can't see in my game list
OGXbox Admin replied to JohnnyHUN's topic in Games
If it has default.xbe 1 folder below the "Games" folder where your other games are located, it will be picked up by the dashboard. -
The X3 bios is for the X3 chip. I think they made a stripped down version that you could run on a 1MB modchip but there isn't really any reason to do it. The Open Xenium is currently in production and it's similar. I don't believe it will run an X3 bios but they have their own alternative.

The xbox functions just fine connected to a switch. System Link functions at Layer 2. Even though it will give 0.0.0.1 and 0.0.0.2 ip's to the devices, this doesn't really matter. Broadcasts go out through a switch just fine.

If you just nulled the hdd key, I don't think that would cause this. There is much more in the eeprom than just the hdd key though. If you nulled the entire eeprom, yeah that's what caused this.
-
This will happen when there is a version mismatch of the game itself. It will also happen when there is a version mismatch of retail / debug bios I've unexpectedly found. Your networking settings inside of your dashboard have no effect on your system link game. System link uses its own networking and ignores anything else. Did you happen to clone eeproms? If both devices have the same mac address it will cause problem such as this.
-
That of course isn't what I was saying. Please try to pay attention from now on.

unicorn is a good term because everything you search says it exists except NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY has ever seen one.

Xenia is Xbox 360 and not OGXbox unless that has recently changed.

Solid green light, No video or audio (Possible coma console?)
OGXbox Admin replied to ShadyBlues's topic in Repair
can we see some high res pics of the board? -
with any ide to sata adapter, you HAVE to use the 80 wire cable. If it gives you problems, replace it with a new 80 wire cable. They don't work properly with the 40 wire. It will always do what yours is doing.
-
You are 100% correct. The ide to sata adapters (even if they appear to) don't work correctly with the 40 wire ide cable. You MUST use the 80 wire.

Most 1.6 bioses are not compatible with 1.2. That is most likely the case.
-
It flashes orange for a few reasons. Usually overheating. It could also be (if orange and green) that you don't have an av cable plugged in. Others say it could be a solder splash. What has changed recently? Have you removed the clock cap?
-
If these dashboards are trying to reach out to sites that don't exist anymore for things like RSS feeds, backgrounds, music... they will take FOREVER to load. The first load up of unleashx extracts a zip file contained within the xbe that has the default skin in it and caches several items. So that can cause slowdown. XBMC has been the most well maintained and as such is generally the fastest for me.

Are you certain you got the polarity correct on them? I concur with providing pictures of both sides of the board.
-
There is currently nothing out there that provides that option.

Question on Xbox Controller port to USB Adapter
OGXbox Admin replied to blueskygeek's topic in General Xbox Discussion
USB physical connections don't mean much. Just because it fits doesn't mean it is going to work. There needs to be a driver that tells the Xbox how to use the device plugged into it. In the case of the Xbox, that will not exist. It's not like your pc where people submit their drivers to Windows Update and it just automatically pulls them down when you plug a new device in. That seems to happen so automatically and seamlessly that people have no idea that it is occurring. That's why people think if you just plug something into USB that it's automatically going to work when the physical connection means basically nothing. -
You could probably get the job done with that but 18.00 for all of that means it's got to be pretty low quality. Obviously you will get diminishing returns but jobs are always easier and have a higher chance of success when you have good tools. Just using really nice silver bearing solder will improve your work tremendously. The small things add up to make a big difference.
-
That would be nice. Unfortunately the forum software has no such way to set that. If I modify the skin to put it there, it gets wiped out each time the forum/skin need updates which is every couple of weeks.
-
nothing can be 100% protected from a careless owner. The good news is, the mistake will only cost you around $30.00 to replace and start over.

Your dvd drive is failing. It's not reading the game partition and only reading it as though it's a dvd movie.
