Getting The Files On The Hard Drive
« on: July 04, 2003, 03:53:00 AM »

The mech assult 007 loader will be the best way I think. we need a loader on the save game cartridge as well as ernie and bert. the loader will copy the two font files accross and next boot load the default.xbe from DVD. The default.dvd could then do what ever you want.

Yeah, but that requires either a friend with a hacked MSX-box or a mega-x key.

Is there any other way to get the files on the HD without opening the box and doing a HD-swap?

Its not that complicated. Easiest way is using 007 to boot EvoX, and then just FTPing them over.

Of course you still need the evox file on your memcard, but its only one file. surely you can get someone to supply you with this.

Ah, I see what you mean...

No, you can't do that. You won't be able to copy the files to the right place on the HDD, for one thing.

Would there be a way to exploit the System Link feature in multiple games such as Halo?

In a sense, XBconnect exploits this to run system link games over the internet, but what about transferring files over?  We would need one serious coder to take a look at this.

If you cant get pirated games to boot with an xbox and an internet connection then what is the big deal?
If you're going to go through all this trouble of opening your xbox, buying mega x key, buying a memory card, ect., whats the point? just buy a freggin modchip.

Well there's gonna have to be a solution other than gaining a copy of 007 and having a memory card, because cost wise .. you may as well go get a mod-chip to boot.

Can you launch a CDRW with an xbe binary ?

If so, then could you put the standard dash (font exploited and changed to boot a file manager) on a cdrw ... boot the cdrw and would that be possibe to get files on there?

Or you could use an already known backdoor in the phanstasy star network code like the gamecube scene is doing. The backdoor is apparently also present in the xbox/ps2 versions.

Just trying to break the chain here guys - everyone just keeps saying "just get a memcard with the files on", but to do that you need a modded xbox or a mega x key.

Although a Phantasy Star exploit would require a PC and ethernet connection...

Quick question: Can I put the hdd from an unmodded Xbox in my modded one, boot EvoX from a disc on the modded one and put the files on the unmodded Xbox' hdd that way, and then put the hdd back in the unmodded Xbox, or will that totally mess up the clean hdd and not allow me to use the unmodded box after that?

EDIT: I guess that can't be done, because as I understand it, I have to have the Xbox which the hdd belongs to modded for me to be able to get the locking code to be able to first unlock it to put it in my other xbox, and to re-lock it before putting it back into the unmodded box.
Could anyone clear this up? I've never had the need to un/re-lock a drive before since I'm still using my original one.
Thanks.
