ogxbox4life Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UBf0iuQA1g Grab XDSL 7.0 here: https://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=566&sid=219102806e3e01a7ce84724c64a77321 Once inside XDSL go to "mydsl" and then inside "System" install Wine. Now go into the systems panel and go to sound, click yes to deactivate whatever is running, this will make sound work, it seems it doesn't work by default. open firefox and download https://archive.org/details/GrimFandangoDemo go into the file manager, rename .exe to zip and unpack, right click on grim demo exe and pick run with wine. Simple as pie, most games will not run using this wine method cause the wine in Xdsl is ancient and there doesn't seem to be any 3d acceleration in wine (maybe somebody can port the latest wine to xdsl?) so grim runs i think in some sort of 3d software mode, but it's full speed. You will need to solder usb ports to your fourth joystick port to use a keyboard/mouse to play grim fandango (thats what I did aeon ago) or buy a joystick2keyboardmouse adapter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neighbor Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) wow, never heard of this game. Are there any other games that can be launched by this method? Edited February 8, 2019 by neighbor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogxbox4life Posted February 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Not that I know of, https://archive.org/details/classicpcgames has demos of all the games from 1998/2001 that could work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neighbor Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) nice, need to try that, and fill a sheet with information about games which run on wine through XDSL.. Would try the Halo demo, maybe the custom edition will run too, that would be awesome. Edited February 8, 2019 by neighbor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ogxbox4life Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Cool i'll have to check out if wine in gentoox is better than in x-dsl, thanks for the tip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neighbor Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 never tried Gentoox need to make a test. A system with upgraded CPU and RAM should make it shine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogxbox4life Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Unlike x-dsl which you can have in a folder on your hdd with all your other stuff and boot it seems Gentoox might need the whole hdd space to work so i'll have to wait with trying it. https://sourceforge.net/projects/xbox-linux/files/Gentoox/Home/ http://tinymicros.com/wiki/Gentoo_Linux_On_An_XBox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the gui is zoomed, it's a Stardust Shallax Gentoox Home redistributable. Any ideas? upd: can not find such fix like XDSL has built it, to fix the zoomed image.
