Does nkpatcher support older kernels and not just the 5xxx ones? Can this be used as a PBL replacement on older Xboxes?

As Rmenhal said the nkpatcher is inferior to a new x2 bios. I think the nkpatcher is good for 5530 kernels and it even fixes problems with some games like crimson skies but I noticed some games will not run and get stuck at the evox loading screen. Maybe this could still be solved with signing but I haven't looked at it enough yet.

Exactly, He meant that crimson skies can be ran from any dash with the nkpatcher, unlike pbl..... Everyone who has the game knows the backup can be ran fine with the older version of evox... nkpatcher doesnt need evox to run it just fine.

im not good at getting stuff out of posts, so..
does this mean that every dashboard and kernel is exploiable now , and can have a different bios ?

To the two posters above:
No it doesn't mean every kernel and dash is exploitable now.

I'm sure you can use it with a gamesave and let it make you run unsigned code from the hd and No it will not fix the reset on eject problem.

i use nkpatcher simply because its so much more quicker than pbl, i enjoy turning on the xbox and seeing it just pop up with evox or whatever instead of hearing my tv make a high pitch whine when pbl garbles up the screen

However, I do still have PBL on my system, and a link to in evox, for 7th partition support and when i need a bios loaded for whatever reason.

p.s.
I have an xbox with a focus encoder
PBL 1.4.1 does not work at all with svideo (ms advanced av pack)
PBL 1.4.1 does work beautifully with standard composite cable
pbl 1.3.5i works with svideo and composite but is garbled and makes my tv hurt

now my friend has a xbox with a conexant encoder (or whatever that company is called) and 1.4.1, 1.3.5i they all work with MonsterCable svideo and MonsterCable Component (480p mode only, he has a crappy EDTV)

hope anyone can get anything from that.

The asm files are just the source files, the ude fonts generally point to E:\default.xbe i beieve.

ok this thing rocks for 5530 and i dont see any drawbacks if you dont care about live. i'm runnin unleashx with this exploit but i can seem to get the original msdash to work. almost positive i hexed MODxboxdash correctly and i'm pointin the unleash config file to it so i dont know what the problem is. everything else works like a charm as far as i can see. btw what is the advantage pbl has over nkpatcher? just the ability to use different bios?

gronne · « **Reply #24 on:** June 23, 2004, 01:31:00 PM »

What's the biggest difference from running this on a 5530 and just running UDE normally on an earlier kernel? Is there any?

. I've got two chipped xboxs and a TSOP'ed xbox, so im no noob. I used a softmod when i didnt have the cash for a chip, and it worked great. Can I get an amen?

) it would be worth a try. That way 5713 and 5838 owners could do a HDD upgrade (< 137Gb) and run unsigned apps and backups from a (big) HDD.
