Quitting Out Of A Game Back To Evox

I'm not sure which IGR you're activating as that button-combo can be used for both.  EvoX's IGR will reset the Xbox while X2's IGR will punt you straight to the dash.

just watch yourself, some games won't work right with the IGR option enabled in your evox ini file.

just as a heads up

depends on which IGR you are using.
X2's 4976-02 has a BIOS based IGR that lets you go back to the dash. This is reckoned to be more stable than the one in the Evox dash 3752 (just listing two most current versions) that also reboots the machine vs. putting you back to the dash. Both of them typically use L+R+option+start.

a lot of people keep the X2 IGR enabled and disable the Evox one for compatibility reasons.

i have a xecuter2 mod with latest evox dash - 3752.
what is the X2 IGR and how do you use it as opposed to using the evox IGR?

X2 Bios uses same combo as evolution-x (L+R + B+S)

Disable all IGR entries in evox.ini and the X2 IGR should work OK unless you disabled it.

This is the area that I get confused in. Correct me if I am wrong

There are two sorts of IGR:
Evox IGR
x2 BIOS IGR

Correct me if I am wrong, you need to put the file x2_IGR_disabled in the e: drive to disable it the X2 IGR for 4976.02 . And just disable evox IGR by going to all the IGR settings in evox.

From http://www.x111.com/...opic.php?p=8943

The IGR-function (In-Game-Reset) can be set on/off Evolution-X.
- The first IGR option can be found in the FTP section (of the settings).
- The second IGR option can be found in the RDTools section (of the settings).
- The last and probably most important IGR option can be found in the Misc section (of the settings).


I want max stability, should i turn all the IGR off (Evox and X2 bios)?

Thanks

Please tell me how to get back to the dashboard when I'm already in a game, emulator, application, etc. Thanks in advance.

Look at post above your dumb question.

Does IGR ring a bell?????

Just use latest X2 bios, disable all IGR entry's in evox.ini and press L+R+B+S for IGR.

What is IGR and what is X2 Bios, you're confusing me, my friend fixed my system and im just asking. I have a slight clue about this technical lingo, just explain it a little better, I'm still new to this stuff. Also, answer my question on how I go back to dashboard when im already in a game, emulator, application, etc. Thanks.

I believe these questions have been answered many tiems over in this thread alone, but here you go.

IGR means in-game reset, which basically allows you to hop out of a game or an app and back to the dash board. The way to use it is to hit these four buttons at the same time; (L+R + B+S) (although I beleive you can configure it in Evox.)

Your modchip uses a BIOS to allow loading of evox and backup games. Team Exceuter built the IGR feature in to their latest BIOSes, most notably the X2 4976-02, which is the name of their latest BIOS. THe IGR fetaure is also built into the EvolutionX dashboard ver 1.8.3752 (the latest one).

As stated before, the IGR feature in the evox dash is by some considered to be less stable, and hence many people turn it off (three settings in the evox.ini file) and rely solely on the one in the X2 BIOS.

I hope this clarifies things.

I disabled all the evox igr's and tried to play a backup game off the hard drive.
When I performed the igr button combo the screen just went black.
What is going wrong here?

.

If I had to guess, you have a problem with the IGR...

Which game was it and have you tried it again? Does it happen when you are playing and when at the menu level in the game, etc. I'm sure Ubergeek would like to know.

If you dont know type it in search and you will come up with it. Otherwise FAQs. please dont ask questions like this when it is being discussed.

IGR is In game Reset, it allows you reset to the console/dashboard in a game. X2 bios is the Xecuter 2 BIOS that is probably the most popular

I'm confused, when I use L+R+Start+Back it restarts the game not go to the Dashboard, I feel it has something to do with this extra file you have to put into the E:| drive
Is this correct ??
