Dash Launch v0.02
Posted by XanTium | March 2 20:04 EST | News Category: Xbox360

Team XeDev released a new version of Dash Launch, which will allow you to boot your Xbox360 directly into homebrew software:

Quote

what it does:
waits for bootanim to finish, then launches a xex or con as defined in ini file (you don't see NXE dash)

v0.02 changes
- added a small delay so XBR users who want to launch a con from launch.xex can
- implemented a simple ini file parser and fileExist
- auto detects LIVE and XEX2 to use the appropriate launch method
- fails to dash reliably now

the ini file:
-it's possible to have two ini files, one on hdd and one on a usb device, the USB ini takes priority over the hdd one, so console behaviour can be changed by adding/removing usb device (** it is NOT recommended to launch USB con/xex from hdd ini **)
-MUST be plain ASCII text, the first character of the file MUST be the start of a path to a xex or con, the last character after the path must be a semicolon ; there are no spaces allowed and everything after the semicolon will be ignored.

Nice, any chance you guys could make it so when you exit back to dashboard with guide button, it loads launch.xex so it doesn't boot back to NXE?

I don't think this is a good idea. How would you ever get back to the dashboard?

Obviously he doesnt want to

theres many ways you still could get back.

Like making another button go back to nxe, or deleting dash launch itself. Edit the ini file?

If you've already patched your nand with the .01 files, you can simply use .02 launcher.xex/launcher.ini to get this working.

For those that had the black screen before, this launcher.xex fixes the problem.

when you press the big X - you can go to the quick launch menu, press over once and there is xexmenu and once more and there is freestyle.
I select one of those, thus when i exit a game, I can exit into my dash of choice.

Listing them is easy enough, launching them on the other hand... why list something you can't launch?

Freestyle can list and launch god installs. Join #freestyledash on efnet.
