JohnnyHUN Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 I mean i know what are the official dashboards, but these modded dashboards are kinda weird for me. I’ve got some og xbox, some of them has a dashboard that is compact just as the official one, but other dashboards are like wtf, when I go to their settings they throw me to the original ms dashboard settings, so I am very limited to set anything lol, while the other custom dash settings let me set many other things. Also, is the dashboard responsible for playing games? I mean do they find on the hdd and initialise them, or its just a skin? And why is it so complicated to change a dashboard skin? I have no idea what type of dashboards I am using, but lets say I have an unleashedx, can I change it to evox, or I could only choose from the unleashx skins (if there is more) ? And if I accidentaly format my current hard drive when I want to upgrade to a bigger hard drive, will the bootup stuff be wiped too, but its stored in somewhere else that doesnt affect hdd? Sorry for the noobie questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 "What is a dashboard ?" In simple terms it's a GUI ( Graphical User Interface ) It searches the HDD in known locations like E, F, G games folder or apps folder for the names of the games and apps to save you having to search though the HDD files to find the game/app you want to open. I would suggest you have a look at the xbmc4gamers dash board. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Format the hard drive on accident that is, not not upgrading to a bigger hard drive. Quote will the bootup stuff be wiped too, Yes. The dashboard / bootup stuff will be wiped if you format the hard drive by accident. It is installed on the hard drive - stock MS dashboard and any replacement dashboard(s). Multiple dashboards can be installed but only one of the is them is the default dashboard that will start when you boot a modded console. Quote but its stored in somewhere else that doesnt affect hdd? No, only on the hard drive. Don't format it by accident! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
