once you start a new game, or load a save file, you are good to go. I have only had a few problems so far. One was it wasn't working after i set TSR to debug. I forgot to reboot after I did tht. SO I rebooted after it didn't work. After the reboot it was fine. Another time the TSR was set correctly, and so was my IP. It just wouldn't do anything. So I rebooted the Xbox and it was fine again.

I noticed other little things. Like if i didn't hit the disconnect button while playing, the game would suffer major slow down. So just exiting the program, or disconnecting from the main menu, is not good. It annoyed me many times. Trying to re-connect after exiting doesn't work for me. If I wanted to edit something else, I have to reboot the Xbox.

Another thing is using this with a trainer with infinite items on. I had given my self maximum number of items, then it got to a point in the game where I had to buy something from the shop keeper. I had already disconnected from the editor. So I had to reboot my Xbox. In the end of chapter 12 something similar happened. After defeating a boss, I had to pick up a Lives of a thousand whatever for a door to open. Again I had disconnected already, so i had to reboot and fight th boss again.

So my advice for those of you who get the editor working and use a trainer is; never give yourself the maximum number of items, and stay connected with the editor until you are done playing.

I still don't know why some people can't get it to work. maybe it is a firewall problem or a router blocking it from working. I don't if that is correct though because I don't know if the editor is connecting through FTP or telnet. If FTP, and you FTP with other apps, then its not the problem. If the editor uses telnet like I think it does, then something could be blocking it. I am not real good with networking though.

When I use the editor this is what i do:
- Turn the TSR to "debug" in evox. (i turn this to "normal" othertimes because it interferes with Avalaunch's networking)
- Start NG from my HDD.
- Load a game or start a new one.
- Open the editor and set the IP
- Hit connect.
- Hit "read"
- Then start adding or subtracting items in the list. Like if I had an empty spot, I'd put something new in it, set the number I want of the item, hit "update". If all my spots are filled, i go to a spot that has an item I don't care about. I set the number to 0 and hit update. then use that spot and pick something from the drop down box, set the number, hit update.
- When all done, i hit "write". Then check my in-game inventory.

I hope that helps anyone who may be just doing something little incorrectly. My steps can be changed a little, it is all up to you.

I like this program and all, but after a little while instead of a green light at the bottom of the program I get a red light. It also tends to lag the game a little bit if you load the game after you have turned the box off. Anyone lese having problems like these? If not could someone post some possible solutions to this? I also get a message that says "dump asked", anyone know what this means? Thanx for the help.

splinter just about sums it up on how to work this editor. i'm trying to get ninja gaiden's 1,2 & 3 to work after approaching the first game machine @han's bar. the three games come up and it ask you for new game or continue. i select new game and hit start and it just reboots the xbox and the screen goes black. i am using evox dash 3935 and tried turning off igr and other things in the settings but nothing seems to work. i'm thinking it could be cause i used dvd2xbox 0.5.7 to rename the game title from caps NINJA GAIDEN to Ninja Gaiden.

i keep getting this message every time I try to load it: "connect: WSocketResolvePronto: Cannot convert protocol 'tcp', Error #11004"

why is this occuring?


Sounds like a windows networking problem, not the editor. Go check your network settings and make sure you have TCP/IP installed. Make sure everything else looks right. I only know the basics of networking. What windows version do you use and what is your network like? Maybe some one else can help if you give that info.

I put all 3 into my inventory, then went to the bar. I only tried NG 1, but it worked for me.  Maybe try another slot for them to be in. If that fails, take them all out, give yourself 50 scarabs, go to trade them to the shop keeper, and you get all the prizes, including NG 1. Go see if that works for you. Then add NG 2 and 3 back in and try them. I don't know why this happened for you, but sometimes just changing the way you enter data into a program can make all the difference.




it was the title editor all along. reloaded the original game and xbe title and replayed the game from scratch. got to the game machine again and tried out ng 1,2,&3. all worked

I've got this app long time ago, but i've notice some problems also.
This app works fine with EVOX 3921, from this version an on it will cause problems, for what i could verify is that the adresses changes (offset), that's why moust of the time the games slows down or the apps returns Unknow, and everytime you hit reload, more unknow shows up.

I'm using EVOX 3935 and have this TSR problems when it's turned on, games slowes down when you start to do some search or editing. Also, with TSR on Ninja Gaiden becomes a JAP version with warning and everithing in Japanese, if TSR turned OFF games become ENG again (COOL laugh.gif )

Maybe because I have a 1.0 JAP Xbox version.

So, that's It, use EVOX 3921 to apply modifications in Ninja Gaiden.

if you do everything right with this program, the bosses are no problem at all. with all that unlimited ninpo, and your strongest weapon and projectile weapon, you cannot be stopped.i recommend when you hack your first gamesave, copy the game saves to up to 10 of the game save spots. just be sure to get rid of item(life of a thousand gods), ninpo(art of firewheels) or any other object that is given to you once you beat a boss or complete a stage in which you have to pick up that item. once you max out of these two items, remove them. and save the game. for example if you max out on art of firewheels before going down the elevator to the hayabusa village, it will not let you move anywhere. if this happens, just connect to your xbox in debug mode and connect with ng editor and set it as a empty slot and continue.the program does tend to crash a lot so get used to it. edit what you have to, save and then write. i'll probably come up with a list of items you should have and not have in order to complete this game without a hitch.

now that the hurricane pack vol 1 is available for ninja gaiden...will there be a update to the ninja gaiden editor to be compatible with the xbox live update?

edit

hey..i downloaded the ninja gaiden update. so far..this is what i've found. the game can be saved to your xbox. the game can be resumed as normal and played. however, if you enable tsr mode in evox before attempting to enter the nmt saved game, you will get a gamertag cannot be found error. hence you cannot edit the new nmt saved game. i've played through pretty much the beginning of the game, and a few spots the white ninja's are replaced by spider ninja's.  you get two weapons earlier in the game. the nunchaku's you now get at the beginning of the game. in the room where you cut open the canvas to enter the room with the ground boobytrap, you get a new weapon called lunar. a staff like weapon. a weapon said to obtain the power of the moon and is made from a willow tree. don't freak out of you can't find the fangs of the samurai in the caves below. that's been moved to another room where the talisman of rebirth used to be. you also get a new improved counterattack system and camera system. the camera can be changed by clicking in the right joypad.

closing the editor or disconnecting your lan cable to your xbox will cause the game to drastically drop frame rates or slow down. this is normal. just reboot in disabled tsr mode and all should be back to normal. as for your black out problem, you might be missing a file or be running in a mode in which it is looking for a file. ie subtitles or jap movies that you've probably deleted to save space.
