Topic: Unofficial Ssv2 Abgx Update (Read 365 times)

Mcegan · « **on:** May 21, 2010, 11:05:00 AM »

I made this a few weeks ago for a very computer illiterate friend who didn't understand how to manually patch ssv2 files. It's basically what everyone wants: ABGX will now prioritize SSv2 over v1 and will patch it for you if one exists, exactly the same as the normal patch routine. I've also included the checks for waves 5/6, just like the Aeth mod has.

I'm pretty sure this isn't bug free...I've found some problems with it when trying to patch a SSv2 that has the same CRC as the v1 on the iso. These situations are however very rare; I've only ever seen it on 2 games, so I haven't really bothered fixing it. If there is enough interest/feedback however I might try to iron out the kinks for everyone. Anyway I hope this will be useful to some people.

To install:
--If it exists, copy the original abgx.exe somewhere just in case.
--Unrar the file...inside are 2 folders named Mcegan and Aeth. Mine is Mcegan, and the other is Aeths mod.
--Drop my exe into the base abgx directory aka C:\Program Files\abgx360\
--Run as normal
--For safety, check again with either the original exe or Aeth. I'm pretty sure it would be fine to use mine full time, but you can never be too careful when dealing with the ban hammer.

hey i would just like to know which are the 2 games that have the CRC problem with SSV2?

SkH · « **Reply #5 on:** May 23, 2010, 01:23:00 AM »

This is nice, but please, fix the bugs.
There's a lot of games that share the same SSv1 CRC as the SSv2 CRC.

I dont know if anyone else is having a problem but it keeps freezing while downloading the Xex.ini. It says " ABGX360.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close". Anyone know what the deal is?

Great work, great mod. This should be 100% flawless though.
So please fix all bugs.

Thanks for the tool though, It'll be fantastic if the bugs could be ironed out

Thanks mate! Don't stop working on it!

Winchy · « **Reply #11 on:** May 23, 2010, 06:50:00 AM »

Thanks for this.
I have an issue I wonder if you could help with..
I'm currently at university and using their network for internet access.

The network blocks updates etc through port 80. We use a proxy server for internet. Is there any way I could edit the program to allow me to connect to the online db?
Long shot, but appreciate the fix.

Awesome! Now all we need is a wave(video partition update) update that can be implemented quickly. Keep up the good work Scene!

OggyUK · « **Reply #13 on:** May 23, 2010, 08:20:00 AM »

The AETH mod does that.

I wonder why you're having issues with your app

True, but would be nice to have both

Also, is the AETH for mac too?
