i just CANNOT believe u have to resign to the 'other dashboards' section of the XS !!

This is the BEST MS dash avaible as of RIGHT NOW, and probably the future !
its got EVERY hack/modification knows to MS dash'ing !

now thats its english, i just cannot see why EVERY1 is not using this dash !

i have been folloiwng UIX(XDN) and after its 'latest' release i was;nt really pleased with the progress (?) there making
althou there making steps forward on the scene of MS hacking
they dont seem to enclude all the old stuff that they done !!
now if both teams got togethre WOW that would be awsome
althou, we said that about XDN/BSX and all its done is slowed the end result down ? due to too many people being invovled ? well maybe ?

thing the ONLY 2 things that i can see as a feture adding .. (if it needs any !! )
is searching two folder at a time ?? and DVD scanning (for default.xbe's)

i am just AMAZED with this dash i really am
and the more i play around with the settings, the more i just love it !!
keep up the great work peeps

Mick ..

PS, any1 know of a decent icons.xip file floating around (with all emu's, apps icons?)

Finally, after much time and the very helpful help of gasclown, I have made my own custom 3D orb for my dash, as well as adding an extra 3D text item below the menu. My only problem now is that I can't stop trying new 3D meshes.

Dash2gam Rules!

Kanaberra, I love this dash. You all did a good job on it. Your site has helped me do a lot of cool things with my Thclite dashboard and this one is even better. I do have some questions for you.

1) If I load a game or an application from Dash2Gam and then hit the igr, the dash reboots and goes to the original xbox dash instead of going back to Dash2gam. How can I fix that? I have IND-Bios and it works fine with it (besides this)

2) I have added another tab on the main menu, so I have 5 instead of four. I basically want to be able to click on it and it launches my original xboxdash.xbe which is on the C: drive. What code do I need to add to the configmenu to get this to work?

3) I have a network set up at home shared with my xbox and 3 other computers. The network router give each computer its own IP address and if I happen to unplug one of the computers it assigns the IP address to another computer that is currently using the internet. On Dash2Gam, you have to type in the IP address. When I turn on my xbox on for example it had the IP address of 192.169.2.101 when I first configured it. Now if another computer is on the network and the router has given it that IP address, and 192.169.2.102 is now free, why won't Dash2Gam automatically change to this address. Other dashboards (Unleashx, Evox, Avalaunch, etc) automatically select this address. How do I fix this problem?

4) I have been using THClite for awhile now and I love it. In fact I have spent months coding it and doing my own skins, and it works just like I like it. The only thing that it is missing is the ftp capabilities that Dash2Gam has and that's the only reason why I want to switch to it Dash2Gam. It basically looks the same but can do a whole lot more. My question is, can I use my xip's or the code from THClite and make it work in Dash2gam?

5) Is there anyway to speed up the scroll in the games menu? It seems to do a short pause every time I move down my list.

Also, I have been building a bunch of icons from a lot of newer games that I would like to share with everyone else. I think that I have over 100 of them now. I wanted to know how do I get them to you so you can put them on your website. Thanks again!

Hi there

I want to play DVD movies with my remote control not joypad. What are my options? XBMC isn't very good at playing DVD's with menus :-( The DVD X2 does't work with my remote :-(

Is the internal DVD player in Dash2gam working with remore control or not?

Yours

Jerry

Very nice!

Perhaps this may sound silly, but are you guys using an english version of Dash2Gam? All the Dash2Gam distributions I have tried seem to be completely French.

Sigwood · « **Reply #14 on:** March 20, 2005, 07:30:00 PM »

Dash2gam is French, but includes english help files. Once you change some of the text in the dash, it does not look French anymore. Personally, I like the French aspect of Dash2gam.
