Hi I have two questions :

1) Is it possible to load Ind-Bios with Phoenix ? (bfm)

2) Is it possible to make Ind-Bios as debug ? (modify cfg)


Thanks for Responds

1) Yes, if you get the BFM version from the usual place (usually referred to as xbins).

2) Sort of. You can enable the debug manager and take screen shots or debug your xbox apps and also get debug output via Xbox Watson (after the debug manager dll has loaded).

I wouldn't recommend using the IND bios for debug.

why ?

99% of users who use a debug bios do so for the screenshot functionality, which works perfectly.

I'm curious as to why. I used TATX in the past, but I used iND-BIOS exclusively while developing XBpartitioner.

in relation to #2, i take it this is something found in the XDK not a standalone app?

If you mean Xbox Watson, it's a standalone app which comes with the XDK.

No. Xbox Watson is for debugging.

You can do it from the xbox neighborhood or xbcapture.exe.
