Built in XEX patching would be the shizzle, then the DVD to HDD/USB will be perfect. I love how much development has come this year, next year is going to be even better. Thanks to all of you who are programming your arses off, debugging, not sleeping during the night because there's too many new hacks to work on, all you guys, cheers.

Probably won't happen since all BC games are tailored individually for them to work in the 360.

What I would like to see someone hack the BC part and allow us to play other games since MS has clearly abandoned BC.  Last update was Nov 2007.

It's an XBR issue not your console. 80% of my games are unplayable (from either my external USB drive, DVD drive or official Microsoft HDD). Most will play fine for the first level or 5-20min but then randomly freeze. It's to be expected though. It's still very early days and I'm sure there's tons of bugs to be fixed before we see a stable hacked dash. Can't really complain, it's a good taste of what's to come   . Just be patient and wait for an update or buy a Cygnos and install Freeboot.

Looking forward to trying this new version of XeXLoader  

so what your basicly telling me here is that ive been repairing my xbox when it was not needed at all,i used an xbox that i got from a friend that was on rrod with a hackable kernel,i gave him one of my own.

so i repaired the rrod and immediatly after that i did the jtag hack.
i put up some small games to test and they worked great;i then started to put on big games and thats when it all started...

i can play for a short period of time and then the games start to hang (especially in left4dead 2,ninja blade,batman arkham asylum and bioshock)

ive been adding fans and doing random RROD repairs for almost 2 weeks now,for nothing?

why arent we informed or what topics did i miss before i made an ass out of myself and dedicated many many hours of my time to fixing something that can't be fixed?

i just thought i had a hard#ss cold solderjoint on my hands...

well my wife is going to be thrilled as i'm going to bed early today...

so if i order a cygnos then i'm good?

I can't say for certain about your particular 360 but I'd say yeah it's XBR causing your troubles. The reason I say it's XBR is due to a process of elimination (in my case anyway). I bought a brand new 60gb pro just to use for XBRebooot and it has exactly the same issues you describe. Arcade games launched directly from the dash and official HDD freeze, so I know its not XEXLoader. When flashing back to the stock nand.bin dump there are no issues playing games, so I know its not dodgy hardware. This only leaves XBR as the cause for glitchy/freezing games (that's not a complaint, I fully expect it at this early stage).

A Freeboot and Cygnos setup is said to be a lot more stable and not have these issues. Although I can't confirm this since I don't own a Cygnos and haven't tested Freeboot.

For now if you want to go the single NAND and XBR route then you just have to wait and hope the issues are fixed in future releases.

wel i just ordered 2 cygnos chips and going to collect them monday so we will see.
going to buy my 4th 360 and put this one back to the orriginal dash,i found a brand new  16mb jasper.

thank you for posting here and thus letting me know,i was nearly off to buy just a new 360 and just flash te onboard nand again
boy i would have been frustrated

kind regards,

Again, I don't think so. The emulator seems to be generic. This is why I think it is:
1. Look at the download size of the final BC pack. It's small! And the size of the installed files is even smaller... and that download is for ALL supported original games.
2. If you have a hddhackr hdd and you install the final BC pack, it won't work. It'll install, yes, but the games won't start. You have to copy the compatibility dirs from an original hdd to make it work.

So my guess is that the downloads per game or of the whole package is necessary to make the original games' tricks and hacks the programmers used compatible with the emulator on per game basis. M$ will of course only allow games checked for full compatibilty to run on the 360, so no customer can complain. I think every game would run to a certain degree if the emulator was hacked to blindly start original games. So if homebrew is coded clean, the chances might be good that it runs...

Yet some game on the BC list have issues.

I hope someone hacks the BC game database so you can try to play any original xbox game.

What I should have said was that the BC pack has setting for each game so they will mostly work.  Since each game reacts differently with the emulator that is why each game on the BC list has special per game setting.  At least that is what I have been told.

The biggest thing you guys can do to help speed things along is donate to the FreeXex teams paypal account.

They aren't exactly pushing for donations but they do need them. They don't even have a single devkit within the team so debugging is an absolute nightmare for them. A single devkit would speed things up significantly...

Their paypal account is [email protected] as shown in one of their videos. I put through $100 today and I know a few others in IRC have donated as well, someone put through 200Euros last night  

So if you're sitting there thinking how you could help then either donate $ or donate your devkit to them

I guess that the problem isnt the Free60 - XBReboot on that console.  3rls really let you angry.

I'v have some consoles with 3rls and i worked sometime on a few boards .But no good results, a lots of 360 come back to work , dashboard runs fine , but when u really want to play a real game you get ( freezing image , e74 , 3rls and stuff ) Try a good made Clamp mod and a few ajustments and maybe u can play more without freezing or having artefacts.  


Worked for me on about 8 consoles that i have But of Course allways 1 or 2  get 3rls sometimes

[RATT09]

With XexLoader, will i be able to run original xbox games of my hdd that comply with the BC list?

and you are who? you got fooled kiddo..  you really think they don't have a single devkit? lol

you're silly for thinking that
