Ah, my dumbass just stumbled across the excellent list of 720p patches, so maybe this could be an option...?

Hey all, only bringing this up as a new topic since a quick search here didn't find any results. I happened upon this game at a retro shop near me, and something about seeing a Sega game I'd never heard of for the Xbox compelled me to snatch it up. I wasn't the biggest Xbox fan growing up, and only recently got into the scene, so please don't make fun of me for my ignorance (or do lol). Anyways, I tried to boot the game up on my Halo Edition system (I believe revision 1.6b), and... got a bunch of gibberish all over my screen. I can take pictures if anyone is super curious, but the various "Alternate Display Modes" lists I've found for the OG Xbox list Gun Valkyrie as one of the only two games for the console that cannot be played in progressive modes, specifically on this revision and despite the games themselves supporting it (the other seems to be Panzer Dragoon Orta). I've been pretty curious about this for some months now, but, like I said, I'm pretty new to the Xbox ecosystem, and it's pretty crazy this even happens on the 360 I guess? If anyone can shed some light on why, or what changed in the 1.6 revision that would break these two specific games in these specific modes, I would be grateful! I'm very intrigued!
I have a softmodded system, so if there's a way to bypass or workaround the issue, I'm all for trying. I'm content using the RetroTink 5X for now on 480i with this game, and would like to pick up Panzer Dragoon someday as well, so if there's nothing to do about it, that's acceptable too. Like I said, mostly curious! Thank you.

Seriously though, thank you for the install disc, very solid work here!

Oh man, I never thought I'd stumble across all these in one spot! You're a lifesaver!

Man, these are BEAUTIFUL. Thank you so much to everyone who made/found them. Exactly what I was looking for!

I made one of these about a month ago for my Xbox, and then threw another one together for my PS2. Thanks for the tutorial, they both work great!

Gun Valkyrie on a 1.6b Revision, No 480p?

This is very interesting, guys, thank you! I'm sorry I didn't see the responses right away when I first posted since you guys answered it so quick! These 480p loaders are definitely worth looking into!
Are there others too? As far as I saw on the pages of "List of Xbox Games with Alternate Display Modes" around online, PDO and GV were the only two... Did this happen with a lot of other Sega games? Anybody know why just Sega (something about those Xcaliber and Xyclops chips I assume)?
Either way guys, thank you for the informative answers! I knew I came to the right place!
EDIT: Nevermind, I actually watched Rocky5's video that Kaos posted above and he flat out says "these are all the games". That would have helped before I posted...
