Why Wont Evolutionx V1.8.2812 Launch Games
« on: November 21, 2002, 06:31:00 AM »

Hi there guys,

just wondering if its just me are is any else having the same problem as me. When i go to Launch menu > Games I cant start the game in the DVD-ROM. the older versions all allowed me to selected the auto-items. but that was a bug that has been fixed in this version according to the bug fix list. I have tried allsorts.

Item "DVD-ROM Game","d:\default.xbe"
AutoAddItem "d:\"

these are the most obvious i have tried.

Its a pain to start the xbox insert a dvd then switch off and switch back on

any ideas guys  :blink:

OOPs sorry i 4got to mention i dont want it to autoload the game as soon as I insert the disc. I want to b able to insert the disc, then go to Launch Menu > Games and run the game from there.

Cheers  :beer:

can't you do this by using boXplorer? browse the DVD and
open "default.xbe". then again, it's easier to just reset evox
and let the xbox load up the game

I guess u cant fix this little problem, well i guess i'll have to wait for the next version to come out. hopefully it will fix this problem.

Till then i will have to keep reseting the xbox to when i insert a game  :(

If you do a Reboot and a DVD is in the drive it will load the DVD, even if the AutoStartGame is set to NO.
