I used myx... to setup my menu.xml and when i try to load it up in MXM i dont get anything besides apps and the system menu. I did the "auto dir" thing with the apps folder and manually put everything else together, checked it in dreamweaver and internet explorer..no probs, but it wont load in MXM... any ideas???

B.T.W. here is the xml

Are the "/" supposed to be "\"? Or did you just replace those because you saw the forum remove them?

If you double the backslashes like so: -> "\\" they become "\" in the Xbox-Scene Forums.

i did switch the \ & // around tryin to bypass the forum... I decided to move the directory of where my menu.xml was to the "c" partition. That works, but now when i load up MXM i have multiple instances of all the items in my menu, The first set of menus dont work, and the second set does...any ideas?

Your menu.xml file should be in the same directory that MXM is run from.

AS for duplicates, that's very odd. MXM specifically wipes out duplicates, unless you tell it otherwise.

Did you check the configuration menu options relating to menus? ( "Y" gamepad )
