SS_Dave Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 I have also found out that xbmc4gamers will not use the full 128meg ram and apparently that will get fixed soon with yet another update!

While testing my XBMC I created some memory leak by accident and Xbox crashed once 128MB of RAM was occupied. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is couple of lines in Application.cpp which checks how much physical memory is available. Edited June 20, 2023 by antonic901 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When using cerbios on a version 1.1 when I check the info page is reports 97meg free and the same Xbox with Stella I get 33meg free With the Stella chip With Cerbios Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Okay, so NO bios truly supports 128mb? Or no software? Then how do the chihiro games run? I've been so emotionally bitch slapped, I can't even fall asleep... This cannot be true...

Dempsey_86 Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 cerbios does support 128mb ram and also use it. Things like the chihiro games and the half life 128mb game would not run. But all retail games can't use 128mb ram, these must be patched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerbios and patched Ind 5003 both support 128meg ram most games don't support the extra ram unless you patch each game, chihiro will use all available ram.

Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. Okay so now that I'm not freak-out mode, lol, I am aware that Cerbios and patched ind are supposed to support 128MB. But I do know that stock game XBEs will not use it when patched, since they do not use the XDK environment overhead that it was designed for unless they are run in an XDK debug environment and coded to make use of it. But things like Linux, emulators, etc, if they're not already patched I think they CAN be, correct? This would benefit emulators like the N64 which does have some problems and sometimes loads slowly because it has the basically cache the ROM to the HDD since big roms won't fit in memory. Even if a retail game is patched, anything other than the beta version or alpha is not going to make use of 128MB, and even if it were patched, it would only be to make room for the development environment, not for more game code... At least as far as I know. Do I have that right, Dave? @Dempsey_86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Johnny 5's face. This kind of scares the shit out of me... But I can't stop. So Halo automatically uses 128 at 720? I've used Halo 720 exclusively on 64MB... Does it have to detect it first? If so, what is the point if it already does it on 64 megs? I think I've only had Halo 720 crash once from the frame buffer running out. Other than that, it's been a smooth experience on 64mb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My $7 aladdin can do 128MB. Just saying haha. I'm sure Dustin will deliver and make Stellar Stellar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtomcat Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 I mean technically it’s not the Aladdin. It’s the kernel. The Aladdin only loads the custom bios . But I definitely understand the sentiment 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been so emotionally bitch slapped, I can't even fall asleep... This cannot be true... I think they support 128mb and the figures that Dave posted are the REMAINING memory available. Well the 97mb on the Cerbios screenshot is anyway. Obviously with Stellar its yet another thing that is broken or not yet activated in the OS.
