Does it show up in your gamer tag like FSD 2.0 does? I like freestyle 2.0, but the fact that it now shows up in your gamer tag is like painting a big scarlet "A" on yourself for the whole world to see. Can't have that.

This could be a nice alternative for a lot of people.

It was in the SVN logs that they've changed FSD 2.0 from a Game app to a System app, so it'll no longer appear in your game history. However, all homebrew apps are still logged within your gamertag, whether or not they actually appear in your game history.

This dash looks promising. I quite like the design.

Doesn't seem to scan my GODs correctly. And hopefully they fix it so you can download all box art at the same time instead of one game at a time. Other then that, looks good, and I don't have the ftp problems I do with freestyle.

[Aldanga]

I've noticed the problems with GOD containers as well. Not sure what the issue is, but Emerald is still looking good for what it is.

I'd like to see multiple alternative dashes happen like back in the Xbox1 days. It'd make things really sweet. If I can ever get the hang of this SDK, it'd be a lot of fun to start digging into it.

I'm going to have to check this dash out, it looks a lot less cluttered than fsd only the full games work then? Not XBLA?

I think any homebrew app will show up in ur profile since the titleID is recorded  it's just as bad as having achv show up. They can still detect it just as easily, I can't believe you people didn't even notice that. It's just how the xbox 360 works.

Apparently you didn't read all 5 posts in this thread before you replied. That has already been addressed.

It doesnt matter if it gets logged since homebrew saves/stats don't get recorded to your xbox live profile. If you recover they will disapeer. But if you have a homebrew on your games list it might raise a red flag since your trying to update something to xbl from your profile that shouldn't be there.

All that has been addressed is that with FSD 2.x it has been set to system title instead of game title.  

Saying this has already been addressed, leads to more misinformation.. Nothing has been changed that makes it any less likely that MS can detect.

No Icon will appear now, but the info is all still there in the profile that MS can see.

Which if you don't understand, means Microsoft can still tell your profile has been on a JTAGGED console!

MS will eventually zero those accounts.  Then the whiners who think they can have it both ways, will really be crying..

You dont know that for sure, homebrew saves/info doesnt get uploaded to live. If you unlock achieves on snes360 and try to update to xbl, youl be the only one to see it. It'll disapeer from your profile if you recover. MS cant tell if your profile has been on a jtag BUT they can tell if your profile has been on another 360, so if your constanly updating to xbl with games that have never been played online from your jtag, your making it obvious to MS.

The first definition of address is "to speak to." This all has been spoken to. Did you not read the thread either? I already said this in the 3rd post of the thread.

[kettenschutz]

could you all stop this flaming please ?!
the thread is about Emerald, isnt it ? ...

Whatever, Emerald looks fine :-)
But at least its only an old FSD with other graphics
if the author could create more tools and compatibility this can grow to a nice one

(<< is dreaming of a final of Ingenioux )

I wasn't intending to flame. If it came across that way I apologize. Crimpshrine was being a bit of a prick without (seemingly) reading the thread beforehand and I was attempting to inform him that everything he mentioned had already been addressed.

kettenschutz, have you used this? I'd like to know if others are having the same GOD issues that GohanX and I have had.

This looks nice, and can't wait to try it. Also, by the way, I was the one who kinda hijacked the FSD 2.0 thread about the game appearing in the achevement list, but I was wrong. Mattie and others showed this to me, and I was able to verify by myself by extracting files from my profile: ALL HOMEBREW shows in your profile in a way that Microsoft can easily see it. I'm no longer going to share my live profile with my JTAG...

Moving on, in response to these GOD container questions, I have one of my on about GOD containers. I understand that having GOD containers will allow you to see and launch games from the NXE, correct? While I know I can use quicklaunch (or something like that) to make GOD shortcuts linked to where a game is, but that method leads to double posts of games within FSD I believe. Is there a way around this, OR a way to mass convert games to GOD?
