Xbox 360 Software Development Q's
« on: December 21, 2009, 12:10:00 PM »

Hey there, now that I have my xbox 360 JTag/XBR hacked, I would like to contribute some software back to the scene.
My question is, can I use libXenon to create applications that will run from the NXE? Or do I need to use the 360 SDK package to do this. For legal reasons I would prefer to use the legal SDK, but if I can't launch apps from the dashboard using it, then it isn't much good to me!

Thanks in advance

If you wanna code things that run under the real Xbox kernel and from NXE, you'll need the official Microsoft SDK, which would make it illegal, but more accessible.

If you wanna make it legal, you code it with libxenon and run it from Xell, which would work, but is not what most people are looking for right now.

Both of them use C++ as the development language.
