The hacked emulator is great.


For those who claim that this is a step backwards, I agree if you want to use homebrew, but in my case, I want to play games that are not in the compatibility list and guess what? Lot's of them work!!

Example:

Prince of Persia The Two Thores = Works Perfectly, but videos may look a bit choppy, but not bad.
Area 51 = Graphical glitches realted to Meshes and textures. All you see is black on everything and few green lines. Playable, but not really if you can't see crap right?
Splinter Cell (the first one) = Works Perfectly.
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory = Works Perfectly.
Need for Speed Most Wanted = Works Perfectly.
Fight Night Rount 3 = Freezes when Loading the fight after choosing fighters and ring.


These were tested without any modification to the xbe like Title ID or such. Splinter Cell, Area 51 and Need for Speed Most wanted are original discs and the others are backups made with C-XboxTool burnt to DVD-R.


Can't wait to test more games out!!!

We should start a compatibility Thread for non-official xbox 1 games running on hacked emulator.

Update, and sorry for the double post. I cannot edit my posts after 5 minutes of posting... is this normal?

Prince of Persia The Two Thores = Works Perfectly. Videos were playing choppy due to game running from disc with an obselete GDF layout, works great if you burn the ISO created with "CrearIsoGood". It will also work flawlessly from GOD format.
Need for Speed Most Wanted = Errors out after the third race in campaing. (you race the asian with the mercedes benz mclaren).

Seems odd that you need to be connected to live to play anything other than a few formats. seems weird that "that" part of the console is still on lock, but everything else is workin. emulators, playing games from hdd, etc.. even from a emulated xbmc

so maybe i'm just not understanding or something....but how do i use this? or is this just for the original xbox? i've got 360 on the brain as i'm trying to get xbox 1 games working without the long process of xbefix/god2xb1 etc etc

Just rename your compatibility folder on your hddx partition, extract the compatibility folder from xb1_5829_nov_2007-hacked.rar to that partition.

Create an xbox1 folder on hdd1: at the root of the drive

Install at least Freestyle Dash R171 rev

Create Xbox 1 game dirs under hdd1:\xbox\ with extracted contents in them, then they show up under the xbox1 tab in Freestyle, so far I have tested a few Xbox 1 games that seem to work fine.

I did that and they show in the xbox list in freestyle but can't launch them from there have to manualy launch the .xbe file,do these have to be god files to launch from freestyle?

Soul Calibur 2
Tony Hawk 3
Prince of persia warrior within (Not supported)
Crash Bandicoot Twinsanity

These wont boot for me, even though they are supported (Except Prince of Persia)

Any ideas?
All others work fine.

Got Crash Twinsanity working after i used the fusion titleupdate (TU_3VVS1UI_201QS00000000.0000000G1DH80), none of the others though.

I have no idea, why take the time and space to make a god when the extracted content from an Xbox 1 ISO shows up in the menu and launches?

There are preferences my friend, some to which make us diferent.

Example: I prefer to make GOD containers so that I can launch from NXE as well. I also happen to have most of my games in GOD format as well... I don't see why I should extract every single one of them just to play them from a homebrew dash when I can play them directly from NXE.

Why? Well, I Like FreeStyle's Screenshot, video preview support, boxart etc. I also like NXE's Guidebutton QuickLaunch function.


I might make sense to some, none to others, but I like have options instead of being bonded to a single one.

You can use quickboot to make it nxe accessible. You can make it scan the whole usb drive and make shortcuts automatically Just another possibility

Lets compare 360 ISO's in GOD format vs extracted.

If you extract them you have the capability to extract them into a directory structure that is readable by a human without any applications to interpret the seemingly random numbers that make up each games directory name.  You can use quickboot to create shortcuts to each of the directories so each game is launchable from within NXE if you choose not to use a different dash.

If you use GOD's the management is very cumbersome with anything other then NXE, and you cannot easlily modifiy or patch a file within the GOD, so if you did want to do that you would have to extract the original, patch, rebuild GOD, Delete current GOD or overwrite, then upload the ENTIRE GOD package again.  Seems very lengthy..   With extracted version you just modify the files you want to change and overwrite the existing files.  And it's still launchable from the quickboot shortcuts on the 360 in NXE.

I have no idea if quickboot links can be made for xbox 1 titles, but if they can, I don't really see what benefit there is to using GOD containers.  Maybe you can point something out that is really a benefit that I am missing..

And..

It looks as if NXE dash will quickly become inferior to Freestyle with all the development going on.  My guess is within 3 months most will just boot to freestyle and even have a patch that when the 360 button is pushed going back to dash will send you back to Freestyle and we will have some other method to get to NXE if needed.  Latest builds for Freestyle it looks like Trancy even added native flashing/patching of the Nand.

1.- I have compared sizes and the way I rebuild my ISOs without padding and other stuff I do, they are the same size, maybe GOD is 1 or 2 megs bigger, but I'm not gonna die over that.

2.- I have no need to patch or mod any of my games, so GOD is good for me since I will play games only. I don't mind using the HEX TitleID, it's not out of this world and you shouldn't fear it.

3- Yes, FreeStyle is the bomb!!! I love it and I use it, but my personal choice of using GODs have nothing to do with comparing Dashes.

4.- I have 2 JTAG xboxes, 1 is mine and I hack it to hell, and the other one is in my living room for my lil' brothers and sisters that want to play games of course, and I don't trust them using Homebrew stuff like dashes... they are used to NXE so I'll leave them using NXE and we should have to troubleshoot every now and than.

5th and last: GOD games transfer way faster over network and USB HDD.... why? Have you done the comparison? Games like "Silent Hill: Homecoming" take ages to transfer it's 6 gigs when you use extracted game data. This is due to it having soo many small KB files and transfering massive smaller files take longer than transfering less bigger files. GODs will contain 1 44KB file and inside the .data folder, chunks of 160MB (I think) files and will transfer very fast.


Enough said, and once again, I'm not dissin' FreeStyle, I love it and use it.

Well it's also good if there isnt a native port of an emulator, like I love NES games.. MednafenX NES runs great from a GOD container. if i get a native port it will probably be replaced.. until then I'll emulate an emulator so i can emulate while i emulate.
