  1. It does install the emulators in the right place ready for use. But they requires at least 1 rom/game to show on the carousel. 
     

    no point have an entry with zero games and it doesn’t load and I get questions why have it there is it does noting blah blah 😂 can’t win either way. 
     

    emustarion is as simple as putting roms in a folder and if the emulator is installed (20 by default) you scan in the system (it will tell you if there is no emulator) and wait. Now select your rom and enjoy. 

  2. Here are mine, save and my 3 custom builds from donkeys ago. 
     

    Each mod has its own save included next to the files.

    Would love to get a copy of that to try out. I'm currently uploading the version is have, which seems to be titled PES 5.4.2 going by the xbe.  I guess people will need to pm me for it tho as i cant link it here.

    I patched the iso myself years ago, cant remember what the patch was called. I have always made sure to keep the option file that goes with it too. I have it burned on a disc :) Using it with the patched iso gave correct names, teams, balls, stadiums, boots, real chants, different music. Playing the game without the option file results in either the team names being out or the players but the other stuff is the same. 

     

    EDIT: If you want it then shoot me a pm.

    Yeah I also have the FIFA commentary 😂 it was never finished, I swapped the French audio I think with it, so English is normal commentary and different language was the FIFA one. 
     

    mine will come with my save also. It’s a pity as the sites that had all the mods pesgaming and the pesforums all moved away from PES5 after 6 was released 😭 and is Xbox folk never got PES6. 
     

    yeah I still have my version of PES5 🙌 with the save.

  4.

On new menu to look like PES6 since we never got it 😂 same with ingame graphics like play on icon etc…
     

    Can’t remember if the boot packs I helped make all those years ago are in it. Would need to install it and check.

  5. You can add a custom launch option to the black button menu. It’s in the skins settings menu. 

    The reason you can’t add a xbe as a source is XBMC doesn’t allow it when in Programs menu. All sources are treated as folders on the root folder. 
     

    What you’re saying above is when using a custom built menu, you can have custom buttons that launch xbes, not this is only on the main menu of XBMC or sub menus of sources. (Not counting context menus)

  6. The menu is only combining a couple files. So when you press (A) the script builds myprograms.xml out of the gamelist.xml for that system and loads the menu. 
     

    it’s all down to the drive speed, age and where files are on the hdd platter. 
     

    Normally E is the fastest as the building of the xml takes longer depending on where it is on the hdd platter. 
     

    I mean a 47kb file should be a second or 2, I have over 1500 roms lists loading in 4-7 seconds. But am using a 2.5” sata drive.

  7. Run Emustation from E and have the emulators, media and roms folder on a larger partition. 
     

    don’t run it from F and defo not G as the seek times are horrendous the more you fill those partitions.

    Just tested TOCA 3 and the profile loads fine, but the Xbox halts on a black screen when selecting World Tour mode.
    I don't understand why the Xbox community never adopted on the fly patching, like Swiss on the Gamecube for example. BTW is dvd2xbox the only tool that correclty patches all games?

    Yes, other tools just do the short fatx checks, region & media flag patch the xbes. 


    DVD2Xbox does the long fatx patch and can also do a lot more custom patches for games that require specific modifications.

    I tested the following games:

    extract-xiso applied only one patch to TOCA 1 and none to the others, but still all 3 games loaded fine and let me create a profile. I don't know if the protection kicks in later or what.

    Toca 1 is fine, Toca 2 has long file names but not sure if it effects the game. Toca 3 will black screen after loading the profile. (Never gets to the menu) 

  10. You need to patch the xbes, some games have a xbe offset check (Toca 3 is one) that looks for the xbe at a specific position on the disc. If you remake the XISO from extracted files it will crash at the main menu so you need to patch it still. 
     

    DVD2Xbox makes a 1.1 copy of the disc (split if larger than 4GB) basically a redump image, so the xbe offset and any other xbe checks games have are intact when done this way. Only downside is they are 7GB each. 
     

    Media, FatX and region patches are fine when making XISO, as the long file name protections are separate from those and that’s the main reason for XISO loading.

    Hi @Rocky5. I just downloaded xbmc4gamers for the 1st time and am trying it out. Downloaded the pre-built zip from github and set it up. That part worked fine. I then tried to run the updater to get up to v3.0.0 and the update process failed. It's now stuck in safe mode, waiting for a FTP connection.

    Log shows libcurl.dll failed to load, then a 0-byte zip file was downloaded to XBMC4Gamers/updater/Update Files/. The updater app appears on screen and tries to work, but fails quickly and shows a warning message about autoexec.py failing. I deleted the xbmc4gamers folder and re-uploaded a fresh copy via FTP and the same outcome occurred the 2nd time too.

    Not sure why my update zip is 0 bytes though. Perhaps to avoid this being something that breaks the current installation, 'updater/System/Scripts/autoexec.py' could be updated to check for corrupt zips before proceeding.
    "if os.path.isfile(zip_file)" becomes "if (os.path.isfile(zip_file) && os.path.getsize(zip_file) > 0)"
    (or whatever the python syntax is)

    13_11_20 20.04.24.log 7.25 kB · 0 downloads xbmc (updater).log 7.25 kB · 0 downloads

    🤔 the prebuilt version on github is v1.3.001 you shouldn’t need to update anything after.

    Rocky,

      Appreciate the reply!  Not sure I understand completely but here is my interpretation:  Is the takeaway that I can't put a zero nulled key hard drive in an xbox that has been  nulled with 1s or is there more to it then that, as in:

    For all XBoxes that have been modded and nulled but still have the original stock hard drive installed, I can just install 1.1.8 and rerun the null option to rewrite it to all 1's.  I can then use Chimp to clone the disk to a larger hard drive and replace the stock.  I can then fill the larger hard drive with everything I want and then clone that as many times as I want and can add it to any other XBOX that has had a HD key nulled with 1.1.8.

    For the one XBOX I have that I already upgraded to a larger hard drive from that Xboxes stock HD and nulled to zero, it won't work to simply try to install 1.1.8 and rerun null.  I'd have to find the original drive,  have to rerun Chimp and copy the data over again?  If that's not correct, I'm not sure what you mean

    Thanks for taking the time to answer my question, and thanks for everything you've done for this community!

    For new Xbox correct. 
     

    For Xbox already nulled. No, you can just update the softmod and run the nuller again and it will update the key. But any original drives you had for that Xbox (locked to all zeros) will need to be unlocked and relocked to the new all 1s key.

    Chimp 261812 can do this if you attach your original drive (locked to all zeros) to the Xbox that’s been all 1ed as the slave drive, add the old nulled eeprom.bin to the Y partition and run chimp. Select slave drive options and pick unlock > Y:\eeprom.bin when done, lock the slave drive to the motherboard and done. 

  13. V1.1.8 will un null the key when you run the option again. I changed it to use all 1s as this is fine for insignia. 
     

    note, any drives that are locked to a nulled key won’t work anymore on that Xbox, so if you have backup drives (original drive for example) you will need to use chimps slave drive options to unlock and relock to the new all 1s key. (Or if you can do it via PC do it that way)

    If the latter isn’t so, the. You’re fine to just run it and not care.

    From URLDownloder version onwards
     

    1.0.19

    1) Added external hdd-key.txt parsing so folk with corrupt eeproms can sign DLC

    ( hdd-key.txt goes in Q:\system\ just plain txt key is used. )

     

     

     

     

     

    XBMC doesn’t like some eeprom hdd key values and breaks 🤷‍♂️ It doesn’t read it properly so I added the above. Just copy your hdd key into that file and it will be used instead.

    when are u going to add more themes? i really like the batman one but i have 2 different modded xboxs and i'd like to have different themes on them.

    There are currently 3 themes. If you want to make any you can. I have tried to make it as simple as I could to do. 
     

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1882rgEk4ZazrrC8Hl78c3Cb4jK0iBooB/view?usp=drivesdk

     

    Just replace textures and edit xml files to your liking. Then run the build theme.bat and it will do its thing. (Don’t change the name of the template files, they get renamed by the bat during the build process)
