Nice

This will help so many people.

Thanks burnerO, somebody had to do it.

one recommendation on the tool.
add in a funciton that shifts the priority of the cdrom boot

move "\Device\CdRom0\default.xbe" in the unpacked bin after the dashboards.

i already did this manualy and it seems to work to my satisfaction.
i'm sure there are others that still want to boot to the dash if there
is a disk in the dvd rom when powering up.

now that people are bugging you to update the tool, you'll probably see why NghtShd got fed up.

Thanks again!

Thank you for putting in the effort!  I wish someone could find a way to make the fan mod work too

[ZaPhOd]

MOST excellent, thank you!  This was the only thing keeping me from changing my BIOS.

I haven't tried the tool (yet), but burnerO is helluva cool, I know from the DC scene.

Nice work on the DC BTW.

People may well start bugging you for features like the ability to change the Front LED colour? beg beg

I don't think that will happen until/if nghtshd releases his most recent sources.  I think that he did most of the work on the fan speed and led change code injection himself, so its understandable that he wants to keep the code to himself.  I would hope that if really does drop the project for good that he would release the source though.

Admittingly, I'm not NghtShd, and can only do what little I can.

I'm not as hardcore as some of you (fan modding), but this works for my purposes as I only remove the animation/trademark, and customize the colors.

As far as the led goes, this green to red tutorial is very simple:

Also, if anyone knows of a site with color presets, I'll start converting/posting a few.

Excellent work Burner0!
I had been holding out on upgrading my bios until I could customize it.  It worked perfectly the first time!

For those not sure what RGB values to put into your 4980.ini, I used XBtool Color BIOS Preset Maker to determine the values.  Just find the color and take the RGB values from the upper left hand corner.

Again, great work! Thanks a lot!

yeah i did the same thing worked great

[Bogus8]

Ok, maybe I missed some info from way back but... the instructions say "unpack 4980 with xbtool" I didn't think xbtool supported 4980, mine doesn't all I want is a BFM 4980 I don't need any customized stuff but I get Kernel extraction error on xbtool version 1.0.12

So did I miss some trick on getting xbtool to work with 4980?

Thanks in advance!

burner0 is the man. He's released some of the GREATEST selfboot tools to the Dreamcast homebrew community EVER. Good to see he is expanding his talent to other areas.
