XM360 v0.6 *update v0.6b* Posted by XanTium | January 30 16:48 EST | News Category: Xbox360

Team XeDev released a new version of XM360: This includes all of the features of XBLA Unlocker previously released by dstruktiv. The additional "Collection Management" is contributed by node21. What's new/fixed (since v0.4): * Added support for all screen resolutions * Added button to return to dash.  This might take a bit of time since this is when it writes the report file to the USB stick.  This also means that if you exit via the center X on the controller, the report won't get written (unless you had clicked on Scan, which exits the Collection Manager and also causes it to write the report) * Added titles that you have, and that are excluded to new sections of the report.  The Have titles include their full path.  This can help you figure out why NXE can't see them, but XM360 can. * Massive rewrite to support DLC (so, expect some bugs) * Supoort for viewing your installed DLC, and unlocking it * layout isn't great, but it works well enough for now * the button to unlock DLC *only* affects the DLC currently listed.  So, if you want to unlock it all, make sure you have selected the [All] category * the xbla_report.txt is written any time you exit the Collection Manager, so expect it to be a little slow.  I'll probably add a button for the next release. * Include "hdd:\\360dashit\\Content\\0000000000000000" as a source of XBLA files * When sorting by ratings, higher number of raters counts for more.  Also, highest ratings are at the top now, not the bottom * 0.6b fixes launching correct titles from within Collection Manager Official Site: http://xedev.xbins.org Download: n/a (built with XDK)

It will list it, but it won't tell you what's missing...that's the next release.

If map packs are DLC, then the answer is yes.

i've noticed the dlc that i haven't run through yaris swap ie stuff like forza and left 4 dead dlc we have to use dlc patcher but this app im guessing is using yaris as a base hense it will still report the dlc locked so unlocking it within the app might cause problems im to scared to even try it when i know the dlc is working :-) just thought i'd put that idea forward to you otherwise ace work as always

No, xm360 no longer uses the basic "yaris swap".  It has knowledge of the entire block of licenses.

If your DLC is showing up as "locked" in xm360, it just means that if you choose to "unlock", xm360 *will* be changing something.  That something might not actually have any effect, but it is very unlikely to break anything.  ( as it turns out, there is a slight bug in how it determines if it is "unlocked" or not, but unlocking it if it was wrong won't do any harm...explanation follows, I've already fixed it for the next release)

Once and for all, the algorithm for determining if your content is "unlocked" is as follows:

All 16 license slots must have either all zeros or all FFs in the first 8 bytes.
All 16 license slots that have all FFs must not have 4 zeros after them.

That is the correct algorithm.  The bug in 0.6b does this:

All 16 license slots must have either all zeros or all FFs in the first 8 bytes.
All 16 license slots that have all FFs must have the value 0x00000001 after them.

The reason this isn't harmful is that the *UNLOCK* code does the following:

All 16 license slots must have either all zeros or all FFs in the first 8 bytes.
All 16 license slots that have all FFs must NOT have 4 zeros after them.  If they do, the value 0x00000001 is written.  Otherwise, the existing value is left there.

So, if you have some DLC that has:

FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 01 01

xm360 0.6b will say that it is locked (which is the bug).  If you unlock it, it won't do anything.

Anyway, the short story is that it is safe to "unlock" with xm360, as the algorithm is sound.

I guess you consider map packs not to be DLC because I do.

I have not found anything to allow me to use my WaW Map Packs on my JTAG yet.

Next time smartass, dont say anything unless youve tried it.

All I get is a black screen, when I try to start it

It's comments like this that make me wonder why I bother spending so much time away from my family to write software for free, for other people's use.

Look, xm360 doesn't know anything about map packs, it doesn't know anything about rockband songs, it doesn't know anything about arcade games, it doesn't know anything about anything.  It searches the hard drive for files, and those files have a "content Type" embedded in them.  If "map packs" look like *ALL OTHER* DLC then they will work.  if they don't, I don't know what to tell you...except for this... please forget that xm360 exists, and find some other software to use.  I'll sleep better at night knowing that all of my hard work isn't being enjoyed by *you*.

You two obviously COMPLETELY miss the point of my post.  I was not criticizing XM360 in any way shape or form.  I actually think its one of the most useful apps I use.

I simply asked a simple "can it do this question" and got a smart ass response that was WRONG.

If map packs are DLC, then it can unlock them.  Well, Map Packs ARE DLC, but XM360 can not unlock them so my post was made directly to, and only to, the post that was incorrect and rude.

Im not hating on the product or work, but I was hating on only ONE specific post:
"If map packs are DLC, then the answer is yes."

They are, but it doesnt.  Simple.
