[Resources for XBmc4gamers/Kids V1.0]

OK... Just an Update on the URLDownloader which did not work for me + preview.xmv

preview.xmv are the videos. Some people say you have to put this next to the default.xbe, but I don't care about the video.

After some testing it seemed that my loaded version of xbmc4gamers was not the newest one.
So I created the newest one based on 3.5.3 30032 and sources from GitHub.
First I created with:
Build XBMC4Gamers.bat

Then I updated the same with
Build XBMC4Gamers Updater.bat

Now, URLDownloader is working properly and the Artwork Installer from Rocky5 is also being downloaded.
 

Artwork from Rocky5 is great and I don't see the need for psykos anymore.

Anyhow, the both psykos and rocky5s Artworks are great stuff and I can't believe how much work it must have been to collect all these.

don't leave it for later, buy it today. it is a high quality product. he's perfect. I am very grateful that there are such cool people like Ryzee119. thanks again friend, what are you doing these things for retrogamers.

Totally agree to that.
I got added to the order on E*T*S*Y just 2 days ago and looking forward for beeing cordless on an 16 years old XBOX OG.

Just some offtopic,

the OG Xbox was only used during my study between 2006 and 2012, we had a lot of fun, especially with Mario Kart 64 and Fifa07. My roommates loved this box.
In 2006 I softmodded with ltools procedure and placed a 200GB IDE HDD locked to it.
Since I got more and more *.mkv files even XBMC was not used anymore by me or my wife.

My twins are currently getting older and I bought an Xbox360 RGH with 2TB, of course only for Backups
But I realized early, for some stuff (a lot actually) my OG XBox is better, so I decided to do some rework.
The box is now completely reworked:
TSOP with IND 5004.76
2TB SATA incl. SATA Adapter and better IDE cable
Flashed and Modified LG8163b DVD (AllesFresser)
Removed Capacitor
Placed a quiet 70mm fan (80mm seems also to work but the thermal tunnel is broken, so temp is getting higher than before)
New Themal Paste
Ghostware Collections (SNES / N64/ SegaGenesisiMegaDrive)
XBox HDD Ready Collection
OpCoins Premium Elite

In Progress:
Xbox360 Controller for OGBox

Todo:
128MB RAM Upgrade
720p xbe adjustement for "tested" games

Truely, I think I spend many many hours to get back into especially to have lovely hours playing with my kids, but from an financial perspective it was non-sense (but fun)

Yeah! Thanks Mate! 

Worrying that nobody would re-up, I have looked for some alternatives.

Actually there is an Artwork Installer Included in XBMC4Gamers:
1:) Start URL Downloader and Install Artwork Installer
2.) Execute

Found: https://assemblergames.com/threads/release-xbox-artwork-installer.69724/

Unfortunalely it started the "Bubbles" but after 1 hour nothing happened, so maybe it is not working.

But on Rock5's second project "EMUStation" a lot of Artworks are already available for download

https://github.com/Rocky5/XBMC4Gamers#artwork --> https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1a3ZaFTuuu5L7lDbnOjmA5tlHhrwpWFKC

 

Does anybody have an idea what is the difference between Rocky5s Artwork (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1a3ZaFTuuu5L7lDbnOjmA5tlHhrwpWFKC) and the one from Psykos?

EDIT:

I checked both and have seen that the Pictures are deviating.
Psykos has 2D's in it
Rocky5s has more pictures also in 3D.

Next to that in Folder "MEDIA" of Psykos there is a file: preview.xmv (No idea what it does as I have not tested yet)
But Pskyos has delivered the CopyPreview.bat, so without checking for details in Code, I am pretty sure this one would work on the files of Rocky5 already or with a small adjustment in code. (It looks only for *.jpg, Rocky5 does use more *png)

 

I will test and check what looks better.

Hello all !!!

This is a new version of my resources pack for XBMC4Gamers (https://mega.nz/#F!5wUBQZSa!44MF7TL02pTjOsHEdTCrtg 12Gb on Mega). It was based on Wikipedia for list of XBox titles, completed with Modded / Unreleased / Ripped games (1106 games !!!)

It's easy-to-use : download "Resources4XBMC v1.0", extract it and view the full list of HDD ready files then transfer as needed !

This pack contains few covers, banners, icons, cd, fanarts, previews and synopsis (thanks Cian Cunningham for his work) . I think it the most complete pack you can find and it works with all XBMC 3.5.3 or above once Rocky5's custom version (XBMC4Gamers and XBMC4Kids).

What's new in this version :

- Added more covers, fanarts, previews...
- Better quality for covers, fanarts and preview ;
- Add synopsis by Cian Cunninghan ;
- Separates folders for modded, ripped, retail and unreleased games ;
- And many some little things :)

Many thanks to Rocky5 for his programs and Cian Cunningham for his work.

Any issues anyone finds I can fix and update accordingly when I have time.

I hope this enhances your XBMC4Gamers setup.

Hi all,

the MEGA link is down, could someone reupload or share a still active link?
I would love to have the resources

 

Thanks
