BJ is looking at a new unrar source I showed him a link to, as the .rar format gets updated often and previous versions of the unrar code cannot unrar the newer version, it will be a hard sell to get him to implement that but I hope it can be done, but he is adding and has added zip and unzip support... SO if all else fails, zip it, zip it good... laugh.gif

EDIT: Forgot to mention, welcome aboard and buckle your seat belt, the ride is fast and exciting...

Yup enjoy the ride. It'll be a new addiction tweaking the dash to best represent you.

My recommended steps:

1. Make an MXM folder in your apps directory and upload just the default.xbe file
2. Launch the default.xbe file through evox
3. Be amazed at how it autoconfigs itself
4. Make an mxm skins folder and upload/test some really dope skins.
5. Look at all the things you dont like, like the double entries of demo games
6. Create and upload your mxm.xml to suite your needs
7. Create and your menu.xml to suite your needs
8. Download some cool preview videos and upload them to your games/apps folders and rename them as mxm_ss.wmv so that mxm can automatically pick them up for you
9. Play with mxm, tweak all the things that you want, and have fun.
10. Install as default dash using your latest mxm.xml and menu.xml

Of course this will all be simplified even more when the UI is set in place in the next release.
