Also, I must add, when I wrnt to dashboard, and 'clicked' on pheonix, I got an error code 14.

Nowhere in the MXM dash does it have Pheonix. If this is replacing the live button in the MSDash then you also have fonts loaded which is no good.

What are you running?

This package is designed for machines WITH NO OTHER EXPLOITS!

I just want to say, GREAT WORK Morden! I have mxm running flawlessly, with new skins, all my old games/apps in place, and I even dropped evox in as an app to run from inside mxm to easily change the IP address of my box.  The game stub works flawlessly. Having custom soundtracks again rocks. (never bothered with the stub in MA v2)
Well Done.

Thanks again Morden

There's nothing else installed on my box. Unless I've discovered some new trick by screwing with copying gamesaves to the hard drive and deleting them, then I've not installed anything else. Here's what I did to get the error 14. I copied the gamesave to the hard drive, booted MA, selected run linux, MXM loaded

So far so good!

I selected 'skin & misc settings'

There is your first mistake, don't mess with the gamesave, just use it to install. Leave it's settings alone.

I go to Dashboards, and press the A button.

Once installed the dashboards menu will no longer appear. Don't use it for the time being.

Anyway, ive got it all running GREAT, I do sometimes 'break'  the thing from too much hacking around, but all I do is simply load in my MA save and "Resotore the DB" file, everything works great after that..

Did have a hair pulling out moment when DVD2XBOX changed my network settings and I had to fumble around in Boxexplorer before I could FTP again, was a lot of fun in the end

A truly great package!

And the menus are pretty simple, if not time consuming, to set up, sure I could use the "auto" feature but sod that! I am a web developer after all! XML is my 3rd language! After HTML that is

I find it all quite simple from here, I mean, using the MENU.xml file is as simple, if not simpler then using XBMPs CONFIG file...

Well done mordon....

I however do find my self wanting to replace MXM with XBMP as my default dash, I seem to use XBMP the most and it seems a pain to press that extra key just to open it I plan on changing the BIOS (I assume thats how) to open XBMP as my default dash and then have MXM as a listing in "My Programs" so I can fix the audio exploit if it goes a little off

I will keep you all posted...

Go back a few pages, others have seen this. It means that verything did not get uninstalled from V2, or the last time you used V3. Back a few pages I gave a list of file/directories to delete. Try that. As I said to UHYVE, The uninstall part is important! After uninstalling V2, make SURE it didn't leave anything behind! Morden.

Ok... since it seems people are having some trouble with this.... READ THIS!

MXM scripts will fail if they are instructed to do something they can't! (Like create a dir that already exists)

If you are getting "'ERROR (line1):(callscript) Actionscript file failed execution" when you try to install, this means that something is interfereing with one of the MXM commands.

You MUST get rid of everything that may interfere with the MXM commands and try again.

Here is a list of what CAN NOT be on your system when you run the install:

e:\MXM
e:\PBL
e:\Morden

If any of these directories exist, delete them and everything in them.

OK. here is the tricky part.....

Go to e:\Tdata\fffe0000music.
If st.or exists, delete st.db and rename st.or to st.db. If ST.or does not exist skip this.
If a directory named 1499ec exists, delete it.

Once you have done this, reboot and try installing again, it will work.


Please take a look at what is in the package as opposed to just installing it, try to grasp how it works. If you look at the installpack script you would see where each of these things come from, and perhaps understand why it is failing.

MKJones,

Before you do that wait a bit. i may have an alternate method to get XBMP as your dash, and not lose any of the functionality provided with my package.... Just give me until tonight to make sure the idea is sound.

Morden.

[Mordenkainen]

Yup......

L+R+START+BACK

btw, If I don't have autostart enabled, how do I launch games from a backup dvd? HDD menus are good, obviously, but how do I launch the dvd drive without changing it to autostart games   everytime?

[gamera]

nope it wont work do i have to enable it?

[gamera]

found the button combo L+R+select+start

[Mordenkainen]

Left + Right + Back + Black is another.


to launch a DVD, just boot up to MXM, put the DVD in, and it should show up on the main MXM menu. It will probably be the last item on the menu.

Morden.

[gamera]

your right it does say back i was thinking sony controller thanks anjilslaire.

[ozzhead]

I got mxm loaded. Went and intalled audio hack. Rebooted with a music cd in and the combo didn't load back to mxm...

BUT i think i know why it aint workin. At i didn't have the updated dashboard so i used PGR2 because i dont own mechassult and it gave me a new dash then the 49420 or wat ever the correct number was and gave me somthin like over 5000...

is that why it aint workin or am i doin somthin wrong?

[VillageIdiot]

If I go put another mechassault save on the hard drive, I downloaded it from codejunkies, will it screw up the exploit?
