Can you advise your xbox's kernel and dash version please?

Just realized your version is MS02307J so that's most likely a patched version and it seems this particular version shows a different behaviour of 'hanging' compared to earlier patches. Only MS02301L is known to be exploitable.

kernel and dash versions are irrelevant to loading gamesave exploits. I wasn't saying the problem lies in corruption. I just said the symptons look a lot like corrupted saves. I also mentioned it could be a patched version. Furthermore I live in Europe and have no acces nor experience in japanese game exploit. I just never heard of a japanese game that was not exploitable.

I'm still learning about softmods and don't claim that I know much. In fact, when I re-read the development threads on Ndure (or earlier ones like UDE,UDE2 or UXE) , I always get headaches on all the different combinations for XBL safety. So any of the developers who figured out all that in those days definitely knows a lot more on any given day.

Anyway it's obvious now yours is a patched Mechassault version so you either get another game - I recommend Splinter Cell (seems thats its exploit mechanism is not publicly known - at least I couldn't find anything and hence less likely of a patched game) or open up your console for xboxhdm+Ndure.

I agree posts like this are rare but here's at least one fella that made it work. http://forums.xbox-s...&...st&p=769285

I don't have time to search any further but I'm sure there are more.

xbox games are usually region locked and are not interchangeable.

so how could he softmod his xbox with out opening it? asian Ma?

Or Splinter cell or agent under fire. some games cary multiple region flags so can be used on different reguions like MA works on both us and pal but not on ntsc-j

[krayzie]

Couldn't help myself so I searched a bit more. Another dude is claiming japanese ma works. http://forums.xbox-s...&...t&p=4025849

I guess you need a really old MA

any "asian" of the 3? no usa games and they have to be from like the first run of copies?

because i was just wondering if i could just send him the 3 correct american games and he could try them on a japanese xbox.

[krayzie]

I don't think any of the 3 work on both us/pal and asia. I guess he needs to find him a jap version but looking at dhalsims posts they are hard to find.

Darkmodem's post looked promising too, especially since it's less than a year old, but similarly no reply to my email through this site- I'd love to ask him since he indicates he has a working J disc.  Sending another email just in case.  I searched the yahoo auction site he mentions, there are no current mech assault game listings, only a demo DVD (demos of mech assault and other games it looks like from the cover) and and a "Perfect Guidebook" to the game.  That's a good site for auctions, it's like Japan's closest thing to ebay here.
