Repository for Hex Edited XBEs

Anyone happen to have widescreen fixes for the Grand Theft Auto games on Xbox? They technically run in widescreen on Xbox but they're pan 'n scan. They use the 4:3 image and zoom it in to fill out the screen. Just wondering if there's a better alternative out there. I wouldn't even need 720p (though from what I understand GTA III and Vice City are capable of it), proper widescreen in these games would be more than enough for me. The only result modifying the .xbes through ogxhd got me was the same pan 'n scan method, the only difference being that the games will now display widescreen when the xbox is set to display 4:3 in the bios. Kind of neat that it works but it's still the same pan 'n scan crap, so it's useless.

great work guys what games are missing 480p fixes. i know that pal sports games like club football need fixes and they need ntsc mode enabled but i hear it's a difficult fix. are there any other games.

Kung Fu Chaos is another game. It can be patched so the menus will be 480p, but once in-game, it’s an unplayable scrambled mess.

Will these work on RGH 360 or only original Xbox? 

I'm really not so worried about making the games be in higher definition but it just bothers me that they're not widescreen on my rgh. It seems these don't help that from what I tried.

Here's a HDD/480p pack I found on the EmuXtras board from user Headphone. I'll keep posting more/newer archives as I find them.  Enjoy!

EDIT: Please follow the board link below for discussion of these files. You should back up your original XBE for each game in case something doesn't work. I am not responsible for breaking your games. Do this at your own risk.

Hi, does this 480p pack also do widescreen patches as well? If not do you have a download link to edited widescreen xbe patches as well? Thanks

Hey guys I recently purchased a PAL exclusive game (LMA Manager 2006) and realized it does not support NTSE video. I was thinking that if one was to change the hex value (on the LMA manger 2006 xbe) regarding the PAL video mode and swapped it out with an NTSE hex value that would solve my problem but the thing is I can not find the hex value referencing the PAL video mode. I was wondering if one of ye knew where such hex value was positioned.

Hey dudes!

I recently upgraded to 128mb and installed a bunch of 720p patches from the OneDrive link above. The mod was done well, but for some reason none of the patched games are loading properly. Many will give me a "unable to read disk" error. I backed up my .xbe files, but wondering if I'm doing this wrong. 

1. I replaced the default.xbe files with the DefaultXHD.XBE file and Avalaunch couldn't find the patched games, so I: 

2. Renamed all the DefaultXHD.XBE files to default.XBE

3. Now the games show up in my Games menu, but when I try to launch I get the error or weird display issues where the game is playable, but only in the top left of the screen and the rest is black. 

Has anyone encountered this? Is there an issue that I'm missing?

Thanks much!

Anyone happen to know where I can find patched versions of PGR2 and Forza Motorsport's XBE files? These two games have non-transferrable saves that are locked to the HDD key and I know that this can be patched out.
