It's done. :)

I have removed raincoat and replaced it with Resctoox for both, Sharp and Winbond TSOP's. Now you can flash bot Winbond and Sharp TSOP's right away from the UnleashX installer with a decent amount of bios files you can choose of (If someone is still missing a bios, let me now and I will add it).

And btw. if you like to change the bios of your Winbond (or Sharp) again you can do that now from your dashboard, after the first flash from DVD. You just have to place your bios in "C:\Bios\"  and launch Resctoox from E:\Apps\Resctoox.  Or if you already have a bios in "C:\Bios\" but no Resctoox installed, you can launch it from the installer (Launch pure Resctoox) and you can flash your bios also right a way.

So thanks again for the bug report. :) Below the folder links for the downloads.

PS. Let me know what you think. (Here or PM, what ever you prefere.)

********************************************************************************
Version 1.0.4.


Fixed: The menu 3.7.2. Launch Micro EvoX to lock undlock and backup the eeprom.
Fixed: some typos I found. And yeah, I think there are planty more of them but they are features!
Fixed: The Winbond Flasher. (Huge thanks to: eightbit for reporting this!) I kicked raincoat + EvoX combination. Now you can flash strait from UX with Resctoox.
Changed: Sharp from raincoat to Resctoox for the same reason (bug) as Winbond above.
Added: A second option for the "3.5. Back to Factory" option. One for F and one for FG users.

I will say that this installer is FANTASTIC! The flashing works find now on the Winbond chip. Just make sure that you have a hard drive set up first ;) I had a brainfart and was setting up a brand new 500GB drive but tried to TSOP flash before setting it up. Duh...it needs to copy the files to a set up drive of course ;)

 

Anyhow, this is the only disc anybody would ever need in my opinion. All copies of Hexen and other stuff I have are getting tossed. This is certainly the most comprehensive installer disc for the xbox I have ever seen.

Bravo, really, on a job WELL done!

Hmmm.... I will think about an option for a basic bios which can be flashed straid from the DVD to prevent this (Basicly the option is already there, you just need to start Resctooxbut i need to put the right bios in place for that job). I think an EvoX m8+ mutli bios would be nice for that. I will put that on the to do list.

About the rest, you make me blush (Can i say that as a man? Sounds stupid dosn't it?) How ever, you get the point. ;) Like I already wrote, I try to lissen to ppl. and try do to what they want or to add what they need or wish for and what I think is useful or at least a nice to have. We will see how this all turns out. But thanks for this nice words. :)

Hey, credit deserved where credit is due. I tested each install option in each category to see if I can find any other issues. Nope. This is rock solid. Finally a great one DVD solution that covers everything one could want/need to get their original soft or hardmodded xbox to speed.

I know how much work can be involved with these things. I go by the handle "zektor" elsewhere (GBATemp and others) and I wrote a few tools to do things on the Wii (a safe firmware upgrader at the time), released things for the Gizmondo (a custom launcher, games) and a bunch of other stuff here and there over the years. It is really a labor of love and I don't think a lot of people appreciate that. Most just download stuff and use it without the thought of the work involved that someone put in for free so that everyone can benefit.

Just wanted to say that I do appreciate it ;)

 

EDIT: Actually I found ZSnexbox fails install. Everything else looks good so far.

There are 7 SNES emulators on the DVD so which one you mean (They have numbers to make things easyer) In case it's it's " 6.2.4.13. ZsnexBox v3.7" (which eightbit has already reportet above your post) that will be fixed in the next build.

If you want to install it, boot you dashboard and put the DVD in your drive. Then search the emulator folder for it and copy the file to your PC, extract it and FTP it back to your XBox to the "EmuS" folder.

**************************** OGXBox Installer 2021 ***************************
********************************************************************************

Version 1.0.5.

Fixed: ZSnexbox which failed to install. Now it will installs just fine. (Again, thanks to: eightbit for reporting this.)
      
Fixed & Changed: Launch problem with "Xblast" from the live apps menu. (Again, thanks to Dave who has reportet this.)
             Changed: The path to load the XBlast config in the xbe to "D:\". But if you guys edit something it will still save in
                            "C:\XBlast\XBlast.cfg". (Sadly no DVD burner in the XBox. ;) ) How ever, I think that has the most use.
                 
Added/Changed: I outsourced the hole Flash process for Winbond and Sharp TSOP's to speed up the boot process a little more.
               You may ask: "Why?". There are not that much ppl with Sharps (at all) and Winbonds are
               also not the most common ones.And because, you flash with Resotoox it needs some lines of code to work.
               All these lines slow down the main boot process. And to prevent that we end up like HeXEn, I decided make a own config 
               for both Winbond/Sharp and launch it as a different "app".
               So all users benefit from that little change. We all get slightly faster loading times and Winbond/Sharp users 
               get also more bioses to choose from. And be honest, even you have a Winbond/Sharp you didn't flash the
               TSOP each time you boot this DVD. So we have a nice Win²/Win here. I realy like how that turned out. But see you self.

this installer is really good, thanks for making this!  The only 'issue' that i've found is network is set to static '0.1'..can you make it DHCP?

This is the new installer Heimdall use. :D *Just kidding - I think.*

About the DHCP. I can change that in the next build to DHCP. And tomorrow I can post a DHCP version of the 1.0.5 PBL version of this installer. I would say, check back tomorrow at the same time like today (Here is almost 8 pm). Bit lazy right now so yea, tomorrow. ;)

********************************* OGXBox Installer 2021 ********************************
*******************************************************************************************

Version 1.0.6.

Added : An simple option to switch the dashboard in the installer
              "7.2. Switch Default Dashboard".
              You will need a CEE Bios to make use of it. And before you flash the CEE
              bios make sure you have already set your default dasboard! This is only
              needed onece when you switch the Bios. After that you can switch as many times you like.
              A Shortcut will be placed on "C:\" as "evoxdash.xbe" which loads your prefred dashboard
              from E:\Dash\DashName\DashName.xbe.
              If you like you can crate your shortcuts and place them in the shortuts folder.
              And it's needs to be added to the config but thats C&P (and name change). So everyone
              can to this. To create shortcuts simply use Xbe Shortcut Maker.
       
Added : A mini EvoX as some sort of mini bootloader. So when you boot up your
             XBox a slim EvoX will launch and it will give you the option to
             choose which dashboard you like to start. Needs a CEE bios as well!
             Just a funny so needless gimmik. ;)
       
Added : More words of warnings in the bios section of this installer.

Added  : An option to restore you C backup to c (3.11).

Added : The XBMC Origins skin and XBMC Origins Skin Mod.
        
Changed : For all versions, I changed Static IP to DHCP.
                  In case someone want an Static IP version and can't do it on his own, let me know
                  and i provide you one.

Fixed : A row in the dashboard info which was twice there. So just aesthetics.

Fixed : I forgot to copy the Chimp2618 LinuxBoot.cfg from E:\Apps\Chimp2618 to e:\(root) which is
            now fixed. Sorry for that. (Stupid n00b mistake)        

Update : Updated the UnleashX config.ini of the UnleashX dashboard which get's
               installed by default. New is:
               - DHCP instead of Static IP.
               - Now it's possible to switch your default dashboard in UleashX without
               the need to launch the Installer DVD (Make sure you use a CEE bios and
               that you have the dashboard you want to switch to is already installed).
               You will find the option in "Dashboard and Skins" Again, CEE only.

Update : Updated the EvoX.ini of the EvolutionX dashboard which will be installed
               as default. Since it's still a nice fast dashboard which I use from time
               to time as well, I though it's nice to update the ini.
               All basic apps are hardcoded like in unleash (but you have the option to scan
               for unlisted apps). I also changed some things which didn't work because
               EvoX is just to limeted in his functions.
         
Update : Updates for some of the emulators:
              XBMC-Emustation
              Xboyadvance
              Vice64X
              Atari7800x
              Neogenesis
              NeoPopX
         
Added : Some new Emulators:
              Z26x Emulator.
              Winuaex Lite
              NestopiaX
              AdamX
              Blissx
              Bluemsxbox
              MekaX
              Wonderswanx
       
Finaly I have have made a new "OGXBox Installer 2021 UX Light" version.
This will come, as PBL and as nonPBL. If you don't need any gimmik, the nonPBL light
version is the way to go (I still prefere the PBL one but hey, who cares.).
There are no emulators (Only XBMC Emustation is stille on there.).
All alternative apps has been removed so there will be just the most used (recommended)
ones still left.

Retail 2 Debug and xDSL has been removed in these light versions.

I also have removed all old and beta dashboards. Now there are only EvoX, UX, XBMC and X4G
which all gets installed in one run. And I made slightly changes to to apps install which
means all (left over) apps will be installed in onece when setting up a new HDD.
That makes the install process a bit longer before XBP starts but you will save that time
later.

And there is also an "Pro" version I have made, mainly to see how much I can strip down eveything without
losing any functionality. So there are only 455 lines of code left in this version.
TruHeXEn 2020 has 2988 lines of code and the default OGXBox installer has 1534 lines.

This version will do 100% the same as the others. But it will also frag your XBox in no time if you don't
know what you do because, this version has no warnings, no explanations no nothing. So you need to know what things do.
In case you press somewhere wrong because you didn't understand what "XXX" does you're screwed.
And you would blame me (which I don't want) because of the leak of knowledge (No offence).
So this is for Pro's only and it's only for testing purposes (Even it works great!)
So if you understand that, drop me an PM and I provide you a download link right away at your OWN RISK!

Hey guys,

sadly I have made an real big mistake. I have forgotten to delete 2 files which causes an error 21 when launching the MS Dashboard.

The fix for that is very simple:

  1. Launch your file explorer.
  2. Navigate to C:\fonts
  3. Delete " bert.xtf " and " ernie.xtf ".
  4. Reboot.
  5. Launch the MS Dashboard.

Huge thanks goes to eightbit who has reportet this. So till the nex version comes up (with real big changes which need some time) you know how to fix my fault. I'm realy sorry for that! * Shame on me. *

Yeah, it took wile and many burned test disc are gone down the drain but it's done - Finaly.

Now only 2 versions are left. You can choose between a Static and DHCP because, some prefere the one over the other so make your pick which you like more.

I have cut out the emulators and put them on a standalone installer. I also have made a "Game DLC; Game Update, Game Wide Fix, Game HDD Fixes DVD". Basicly it was just for me but hey, why not share it it right? And I'm working a new build for that which includes Game Saves as well but that will take a wile because of the mass of save games (1000 + - X). I thought, it is nice to have all those on one DVD (Fixes, updates ect.). Not eveyone needs or want them so load the extras in case you like to have them.

And I talked about a manual which is dropped. I Now use the build in texteditor of unleash to provide all infos needed (Way better as infoboxes and you can provide way more infos in that, make sure you check them out - if needed).

The 1fichier links are hotlinks which meens no waiting time ect (Happy XMas), just click and load. For the Mega links you have the usual 5gb in 6H quota. The two extras disc are normal links.

So what's left to say? Right, Happy XMas and a Happy new year (hopefully without that covid shit). Stay healthy guys.

I tried this on a Winbond TSOP, flashed the EVOX no DVD Bios as all of them are NO Dvd bioses. Xbox freezes a at Blue boot logo and flashes red error 7. If I unhook the the DVD IDE cable it boots fine. Can not cold boot a Disc either. So I had to FTP regular Bios and use xblast to flash via dashboard. So is it possible to include a regular EVOX bios in the future revisions?

And thank you so much sweetdarkdestiny and the Beta Testers, for all your hardwork you put in this Installer!!

I have testet all evox bioses. No cold boot bug here. And what app you has used to flash your Winbond (2.3. Flash Winbond or Sharp TSOP (Resctoox)) ? Do you have an SATA Hdd with 80 wire cable? WD Blue HDD? And it would be nice to now what dash you use and which bios you has flashed since they are all different even they are all EvoX m8

Btw. Error 7 meens HDD took to long to become ready.

This is how the bios files are configured : https://imgur.com/a/fdYDQq8 The only difference is the boot order of the dashboards and ofc. sometimes the size.

I used  2.3. Flash Winbond or Sharp TSOP, I tested it on the 2TB origins Hard drive which uses XBMC. Yes I have a SATA Hard Drive and 80 Wire Cable WD Green HD. It boots fine as long as the IDE cable is unhooked from the DVD Drive, as soon I connect the IDE Cable to DVD Drive it Freezes  on X logo and flashes Red.

Origins..... For that you need a CEE bios as far as I know (I will test it later, I have the Origins Image on one HDD. And the bios files are made for this installer and it's configs.

So you would need to flash " 2.1.2. Flash EvoX m8+ F+G CEE noDVD (256kb). " As far as I know it will boot "C:\evoxdash.xbe" so that bios should work for you. I will take a look a bit later and report back. And ofc. I will add a full stock Bios to Resctoox even it also boots "C:\evoxdash.xbe" like the CEE (2.1.2). If you have flashed the EEC XBMC bios it searches in the wrong place since it's made to search for "E:\XBMC\Default.xbe" for the XBMC from this installer.

I will quick hook up the Origins HDD to my pc to take a look and, like I wrote, will test it later the day. ;)

A quick look showed me that you need the CEE (2.1.2) Bios. Origins will boot "C:\evoxdash.xbe".

And on E of the Origins image is a "evoxdash.xbe" as well which would boot with a EEC but that xbe is a Unleash dashboard and there is also a "items.xml" present which can causes problems in my experience (Stock at boot logo, as you described).

How ever, the CEE (2.1.2) should boot the Origins image. I will try that later the day to confirm that and post the results here.

And Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year for you too.

Because I'm damn nosy I have tested it. And can confirm that the CEE bios boot origins without problems.

Screen : https://imgur.com/a/RTSt2Cj

Edit: And a cold boot of the installer works as well.

Edit 2: I will make a note in the info file that the "Origins image" needs a CEE.
