LOL!!!!

I know someone that would love to do this !



Great Idea Btw

[ravencry]

haha i just saw it on the main page.

What would you call that? doggie style?  

[xecuter2]

although a totally obvious solution and quite funny i can't help but notice a sort of - xodus rocks and xecuter sucks attitude

we're not saying xodus/matrix sucks - its a nice peice of hardware albeit a little overpriced, its just that they havent actually done anything in regard to cracking anything - thats just the point we'd like to make

heres to X2 : the REAL next gen mod

first mod to work on new console AND old version console at the same time
first mod to provide lpt programming / cd programming / 4 x different kernel switching ALL while the mod is installed and without ever needing to open it up again
fully compatible with xbox live - including the new problems discovered

wanna solder or not solder - you choose - we dont care

all at $45 - wow - sucks huh ?



[edited due to accusation of lack of compassion ]

heheh on a serious note - same fix can of course be applied when fitting xecuter2 - just in case you were wondering

thanks for listening

kind of ironic but xecuter2 is ripping off matrix pogos?

                                    thats like saying we're ripping off XYZ installer cus we use torx drivers to open up the console - pogo pins are a standard component whos cost far outweighs the requirement.

the pogos are by demand - in our eyes they suck and are the lamest shit we've ever had to deal with  -  we've always thought soldering was part of the fun and the accomplishment - its not like its hard is it ?

pogos are optional - in fact we hope we dont have to make any of the adapters at all

QUOTE (xecuter2 @ Oct 22 2002, 12:06 PM) we suggest wait a week or so as xecuter2 will be available to you guys. A week or two and there will be pre-release pix, or an actual release of something? A friend is looking to get an xbox, but I'm not happy with current mods since there's no more bioxx. The specs of the new x-ecutors seem quite nice, however.

                                    we'll hook you up with some pics when it looks nice

right now its a butchered mess hehe

Hey sweet it is the xecutor team... Ok quick question for you guys as I have the orig Xecutor mod.....I do love it yes I do, but I am getting worried about the whole live thing and I read that someone has successfully flashed their Executor (the orig) is this possible and if so could you spread some light?


Edit: Do you really want me to flood this board every day with how great my Xecutor really is? I didn't think so

i dont own any of these mods yet . but! although i dont want to and wont order an xodus because i dont trust that company eb2000. i do think  the makers of the xecuter are totally jealous of the makers of the xodus because they failed to see that you can make the chip without soldering it onto the board , i dont care if the chip is there design the point is there pissed off because they have lost out a lot really. i know for a fact now people are going to say to me that i dont know what im talking about and that xecuter are so great .maybe they are but i didnt see anyone at all in these past few months says how great they are only when someone brings a new chip out then people stick up for them . personally i dont give a crap who brings it out as long as i can get it delivered when they say they will then i dont care. and i bet if the xecuter came up with the idea of a no solder chip in the first place they would have charge 59 and not 45 are we really suppose to believe they will only sell it for 45 or whatever the price is just because they feel sorry for us by charging 59. they are selling it for 45 because there is more competition fuck it anyway i dont want to yap on any more

well of course it was known - many talked about it within the scene but thought too lame and too expensive no one would buy into it

we didnt envisage there being THAT many techies who couldnt solder (don't take that to heart)

I think it boils down to the fact that the ones that cant solder or who cant make their own from numbnutts designs are just in it for the piracy aspect and not the accomplishment / homebrew development etc.

you say we're jealous ?

dude we do this for free - our work is for fun - its the china guys that make the money and shit we dont care

if we were jealous trust me we would be releasing v2 kernel and make it NOT work on xodus - that would be so easy to do, but we're not like that.

thanks for replying

Well lets hope the Xecutor2 is a little more flashable than the Xecutor1.  New buyers deserve that.

the specs speak for themselves

[RedSlug]

Basically it's the Xbox live problem that worries me.

Don't get me wrong though, I do love my X-ecutor1!

no one has flashed their xecuter

it contains a crc encryption so impossible to flash as it is - we never thought it necessary at the time as it had all the features you need and still does (unless you have the crc tool and wanna desolder / flash manually - if anyone wants that you can request by email no problem)

if you cant remove the mod yousrelf (and to be fair if your'e using a matrix its highly likley that you're not too good at soldering or donet want to solder) simpley cut the power wires and install an updateable version and use a kernel that allows boot to an alternative dashboard

i'd just like to make this point to others who make silly commenst like im screwed cus i brought this mod 3 months ago and now there are better ones out boo fucking hoo (sorry for the crudeness - but thats how we fell on those commnets)

thats life people - a better dvd player always comes out, so does a better car or a tv or computer - thats life. we dont see people moaning when a faster hard drive appears when they just paid their hard earned money on a sweet 7200rpm baby. If they want that 10k sweetness they just go out and buy it - i dont read any bitching or whining there - but jees when its mods - you really should see some of the mails we get when we announce improvements over an older version - like... fuck you xecuter why didn you tell us aboiut these new features 2 months ago. same reply as always send us a fucking crystal ball and we'll make sure you're updated next time.

but lets look at mods - most of you are in it for the piracy - so your mod cost 1 game and you probably have 150 - so dont complain about having to get another when a new model appears. and yes a better one will be out in 5 months time and a better one after that. If your attitude is to always wait for the next version you will NEVER own a mod. SO just get one - use it - if it does everything you need fine. If you discover you need more - get another. If you cant afford to pay $30 - $40 for the latest mod then you have no business owning a console where the games cost $50. - our 2 cents

aGeMo just posted what I was going to in a much clearer way   Basically it's the Xbox live problem that worries me. Don't get me wrong though, I do love my X-ecutor1!

                                    yes this issue is of note and of course only affects those who use evox dash - but thankfully theres a fix - we have implemented a check for evoxdash.xbe also in the new v2 kernel

thanks for your support !

xecuter2 I think it's great about what you guys are doing. I myself own an Xecutor1 but am considering buying an xodus just for the ability of flashing another bios. Sure don't want to shell out the extra cash or the extra time of installing the xodus over my xecutor or removing my existing xecutor but I have the need for the ybox bios. It's a pain having to switch my dash back and forth from evox to the ms dash everytime I want to use xbox live. Now what would really make me happy is if you did release this flash addon for xecuter1 which the xecuter team said they were working on. Was this just scraped for the next xecuter version leaving us existing xecuter customers out in the cold? Just need to know if this fabled device will ever be offered or should I just buy another modchip.

tell you what - we'll take a look at the add on again this week to see if its worth it ok

if its cheap / easy to do then sure - we'll even release it for free

but you are correct the new project took over - sorry

i'd just like to add  you werent left in the cold - v1 had all the features - no one could forsee this particular issue - in fact its so new it wasnt even implemeneted within our new v2 kernel until today

we cant please everyone but we try

I agree you guys are great at what you do, but people like myself are just scared they f*** the Xbox and end up with nothing, the no-solder solution is the best idea for most.   I need a no-solder solution and want to go with you guys, Ive been in contact with Bald Bouncer and he certainly sings your praises but, Matrix is there right now. Can you give everyone and idea when these new chips will be available so that we dont have to deal with such a shit company as Easybuy. BTW Keep up the good work, dont let the others wind you up, it seems like some want to start some kind of conflict between Executer/Matrix People

                                    yes point taken - i suppose when you look at your own abilities (e.g soldering) you just automatically expect everyone to have the same skills - or even some skills

trust me though if youve ever soldered - xbox is the easiest EVER console to solder a mod too - you really must try it - you'll feel a great accomplishement

"it contains a crc encryption so impossible to flash (unless you have the crc tool and wanna desolder / flash manually - if anyone wants that you can request by email no problem)" So passing the design for a flashing tool to your chinese friends was, um, a little white lie? Don't take what we say to heart.  We DO appreciate what you do honest   -- "boo fucking hoo"

                                    no we did they just never did anything with it

thanks for paying attention also
