  1. If that corrector is build correctly pin 3 will be lframe (d0). If you then bridge the "1.6" pads on your Xenium, you do not need any wires at all.

     

    Xenium only pulses the signal during boot to force the LPC, then releases the line once no longer needed. 

     

    Also, of you want to bypass onboard bios on a 1.6 with a non-Xenium, just jump pin 2 and 3. It will pull lframe to ground on the chip itself without extra wires on the motherboard.

    Again, I don't think anyone here really cares (not that there isn't still some consideration to be made, because it is Xodus') about the original XOS binaries being used, we were just discussing it in the context of you using the MakeMHz-patched version on your hardware, but enjoy your "pineapple free" version :P

    We brought special cleaner to get rid of the banner. It is really great to not have Dustin forced on you every time... 😛

    I know you don't know any better so it's fine you think otherwise, but he will release products with other people's closed-source software, and it's not going to make him look bad as we will just have transitioned to the last step of the narcissist's prayer.

    Dustin knows all about that prayer! I saw him try to pull it on Andy in the email where she confronted him. Lmk if you need a copy!

     

    Kinda hilarious you chose that reference of all things lmao.

    Wow, nice find! Also, thanks for all the content you've been putting out lately. The YouTube stuff is great. Please, keep it up!

    Thank you! I sincerely appreciate your support!!

    I have some more stuff coming up, including a video with a different X3 chip that wasn't CIB when I bought it :)

    Do things like DLC and Updates work with CSO files? 

    On a sidenote, CCI's work on Xemu with Cerbios, I expected it would but its nice to confirm it lol 

    No one, other than MakeMHZ, knows what issues CSO may or may not have because it isn't released yet. I have heard there are issues with some Title Updates that cause DLC and Insignia issues using certain ISO loading methods. Until there is any documentation, or product to test, we can only speculate what problems a closed source project like Stellar may have.

     

    Cci on the other, hand is actively being tested with Insignia and DLC by the DLC wizard Harcroft lol. I also have been on Insignia using CCI, but I feel Harcroft is more versed in this topic.

    Back on topic lol..

    I asked MakeMhz if Project Stella would ever support CCI files. 

    unnamed.thumb.jpg.57eb73baa5450cdd0676d0cbf4c2a181.jpg

    So which is best, CCI or CSO? 

    I guess it depends on the metric measured? You can't run CSO on an xbox without extra hardware. CCI will run on my TSOP boxes just fine. There also can't be any real performance comparisons until Stellar launches. Hard to call anything better than the other. I like the free route personally lol.

    Just because CerBios Compressed ISO is a new standard, doesn't make it less a standard.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:CerBios_Compressed_ISO

     

    It is also open source. You can view the source on the github. Not sure how CCI is any different?

    CCI should be made only from full disk dump: DVD5 or DVD9. Is the reason why CCI is better, it retains original dvd5 or dvd9 formatting.

    A trim + scrubbed CCI from a full DD, and a trim + scrubbed CCI from the method I shared have identical SHA-256 sums.

    Once you trim the ISO with Repackinator the video partition is gone, as it it considered a part of the "unnecessary" data. The sector information is maintained for any sector that contains data.

    Assuming you follow the tutorial, an XISO or CCI made this way is identical in every way to a redump. Check the hashes for yourself. 

    Dvd CCI = Redump CCI

    Dvd XISO = Redump XISO

    Dvd ISO =/= Redump ISO (video partition)

  8. I found that if you rip your disc with DVD2Xbox using the ISO ripper mode, the dump can be used with Repackinator. There are a few steps in the middle but it works great!

    Technically, you can create any kind of file you like once it is in a format Repackinator will accept. Just keep in mind that scrubbed CCI is the smallest file we can get that still known to work with title updates, DLC, and Insignia.

    I have made a boot screen for Cerbios . How do I get rid the Cerbios wolf head ? It shows right before the boot screen I made. 

    While I don't think the tool will let you change the image, Team CerBios has stated that they plan to release a tool to customize the CerBios boot logo.

    If I accidentally delete or corrupt the cerbios.ini (e.g. missing or the syntax is wrong), will the bios still boot with some default settings so I can recover?

    If the syntax is wrong, you should fallback to the defaults. I would guess it depends on what you messed up, and how it failed. I'm sure you could break it if you tried hard enough 😉

     

    Cerbios should boot without an ini. You will need to make sure you have a stock dash in C or you will get a dash error.

  11. I was lucky enough to have a private test build shared with me of the latest CerBios. One of the big new upcoming features is Compressed ISO loading! I put a quick video together showcasing the difference between the common file types, size comparison of THUG 2 as all 5 possible file types, and quick CerBios Compressed ISO (CCI) gameplay.

    Keep you eye out in the Xbox-Scene Discord and on Xbins for a public release in the near future that includes full CCI support!

    A pro switch for 300. Good God,man. Does he have any more x3s?

    Lol it is a complete modded system with pro switch for $300. That seems to be the going rate. $450 seems to be the going rate for x3cp modded systems. Afaik he only had the one pro switch unit left.

    Also, cerbios 2.1. NICE. Fixed a lot of stuff and 1.6 support. Now I can use it in my 1.6 halo edition. I'm waiting for that dual hdd support!

     I am eagerly awaiting the dual HDD info. I threw together a Startech adapter splitter and test fit everything in my build I have prepped. Last step is buy the dual 4tb SSD once my xmas bonus comes 😁
