My question is once you disable the chip using the software control how the heck do you reenable it because surely you can't boot the required software with the default ms bios loaded.

 Plus why do you need the programmer now *hint hint* I mean that's if you bought it seperatly

I would not say this is catch up to X2, more exceed it, with a programmable controller, software controllable DIP switch and D0 and A15 software control!!!!  This chip is going to Rock!!!

window dressing - to control d0 and a15 is done with ease anyway. So to say its exceeding X2 is wrong - its basically copied what it does now (nitroxx also) and ported over the same d0 timing functions as before - nothing really new (except this stealth but it remains to be seen if thats worth more than a fancy description - I hope it is, always good to see new work)

you freak that its gonna rock etc etc - well why when its features youve had access to for 4 months already ? (im not bashing hehe just trying to see where your excitment is coming from)

like I said before there is much cooking right now - that is NOTHING like ANY mod available - there will be a bios option that is hardware based also - ill say no more than that

then you can get excited

Hey ubergeek is this new bios mod gonna be 256kb, 512, or 1meg. I really want it 2 be 256kb as i have only the matrix i now there is now the chameleon as is this whole thread but I cant afford to go and pay another $50 australian for a chip and get it sent over. so think about all the poor 256k users when developing it, possibly a base model for us? thanks keep up the great work.

They have a 'base model' for you 256k users... "4976.02" is only 256k.

Do **NOT** expect the whiz-bang features of the next 'big' release to fit in 256k. You were all warned months ago.

hey ubergeek, lets say you release another product like x3 (just assume) will it be able to work with the current wires adapter like all we will have to do is take out either of the x2 and just plug in the new mod?

yes and no

it will use the same wires as before - however we've discovered some new suff using more of the LPCpins

it'll be little effort anyway to swap - but yes we will be encorporating an adpter to be "backwards compatible"

davidhes:

I an assure you the next big release will be based on 512k. However with X2 lite / Pro / NITROXX and now Chameleon you ave many options available to you (if you want the added features of course)

thats whats great about his scene LOTS of choice

Would hate to have seen that before the edits   .

Seriously though good job all round, looking forward to seeing what the future brings.

Well mainly my excitement comes with getting these features in general, I've been reading a lot doing my research and I purchased the matrix in combo with cameleon, just waiting for it all to arrive.  

The stealth mode, I believe is going to sit on a layer hidden to the system which allows for the D0 disableenable software control.  

Ubergeek, you've already said too much.  Sounds like this mod may extend functionality beyond just a mod, perhaps turning the xbox in to a full blown ATX motherboard or built in remote control?  

[XB0X_Mod]

not seen you around here much

Yes, The chemeleon I think will be an excellant leep for new ideas and inovations, i totally agree with you on the dig part, but to be honest the chemeleon does offer a few more options such as stealth, expansion ports, A15. etc

A15 on x2? I am not sure cause i dont have x2 pro... but still I think it is an excellant modchip.
I think alot of people will get the x-ecuter 2 pro still maybe because they think the x2 pro is more expensive and say its better because of the price, but then again I think if the chemeleon really does punch the bag hard enough the chemeleon could open alot of new scene experiances and new doors to future mod's, what i do like on the nitroxx is that damn digital output brilliant! (purely needed for minidisc or mp3 ) stuff like that is just HANDY

[Zerach]

I think the X2 Pro with the pogo pin adapter is slightly more expensive than matrix and cameleon combo.

@Ubergeek "it will use the same wires as before - however we've discovered some new suff using more of the LPCpins " sorry about this i know its too early to ask but could you just explain a little more like what exactly do you mean using more lpc and for what or should i not worry about future compatibililty even if i got my mod installed by someone else.

I think we all try to make the mods as intercompatible as possible (well i know we do - but im sure matrix and nitroxx would have the same attitude).

Its good all three of us are trying to improve - the best thing about our next project iss that there are features not even thought of yet plus anything we havent thought of and produced by another team - will simply be added

Personally im hoping for a new xbox with a ccompletely different system required to hack - its getting boring now hehe
