Well, the fonts in the Evox MI DO have a jump net! So perhaps these are yet a new version?

wow this is great stuff, much thanx to the anonymous creator

but has anybody successfully loaded evox with it?

no one has gotten it workin yet, it patches the dash board just fine, but everytime anyone tries to use evox threw the dash, it just goes right back to the dash, hopefully the creator will fix this error

Athough these fonts are deobfuscated and the key HAS changed, they still contain the "xbeboot-only" protection.

I can get xbeboot to load named as "evox.xbe" from the root of C: and "default.xbe" from E:Debian without modification.
The xbe can be signed with both habibi and audio.
The original mechinstaller fonts have a different key AND the xbeboot-only protection.

These fonts use the habibi/audio key and contain weak "xbeboot-only" protection.
Now, if u take whatever xbe u want to load from the fonts and hex-edit it, it WILL work!
goto offset 180h
fill in the bytes from 180 to 19F with this:

Basicaly, u want the title to read "TUX!L.i.n.u.x..."

So are you saying the internal name of the xbe needs to be "TUX!L.i.n.u.x..." and if so would xbeRenamer do it just as well

By the way if you kill your fonts can you still boot games direct. I was wanting to try it out but I dont want to wreck my softmod box unless I can use mechassault to fix it again

Jezz_X · « **Reply #24 on:** October 31, 2003, 03:55:00 AM »

Looking at the fonts I'd say it only looks for the Tux! bit but Its an uneducated untried guess

Jezz_X · « **Reply #25 on:** October 31, 2003, 04:00:00 AM »

XBE remaner wont work because it only changes the bit after TUX! and not the TUX! bit

So, does this mean it can load any XBE? Like Phoenix Loader or a non-Evox dash?

It would seem so but I'm not testing it for another 8 hours at least
