I guess if you haven't already included code to check if shdowc is running you could have the code look for something that establishes that a marker is in place on shadowc, such that it knows the installer has been run before..  (Basically your rename/rename trick would do that if you added the needed directory)..  Or possibly have the installer delete some useless little xbl/msdash file from the shadowc image..  Then have the installer try to delete that file as a test that must pass in order for the rest of the batch process to continue..  If the file has already been deleted, then the process will crash safely..

you guys should remember that nkpatcher has live blocking. if you try to cold boot and nkpatcher runs, it will give you an error when you try to sign onto live and you wouldn't even be able to get banned if you tried!

and you need a way to get the gamesave onto your unmod xbox.. ie mem card or action replay.. .etc..

Thats all I needed.

Any word on the SC version?  I have used waffletools before but it didn't backup the eeprom correctly on a 1.6 or a 1.1 xbox.  Does the BWI correctly backup the eeprom?  Thanks.

[triggernum5]

Blackwar uses eeprom magic to back up the eeprom..  This is a very reliable app.. The CBackup also functions without a hitch..  As for when SC is going to show up, its been a while hasn't it..  If you are in a rush, other installers will do the same thing for you..  You could always convert to Blackwar after the fact..

ok, I have been contacted about some issues with the MA version of this installer, and some tips on what to do to help releave you of some of the problems untill a proper release is out.

here is a link to the post....

Y' know like on v1.0 - v1.6 and what about PAL - NTSC??

The installer is great because of the shadowc function, but i had to found out the MA version is still buggy.

I got like a screen with an empty square and an empty status bar, all in the typical xbox look; like what you see when you update the xbox except there was nuttin written

Sounds like pesky fonts..  Just try a different font combination..

if it loaded ltools, then yea, it was. if you wish to attempt this (but to be completely honest with you, I would wait for a fixed version to come out), then you would need to:

completely remove the current exploit (delete the gamesave).
put the C: partition back to stock.

and then you are ready to rock and roll.

as a side-note, if you have any installed games/apps ect, you may need to move em around to get them to work with this exploit. this installer is ment to be used on a freash xbox.

If you have anything on F: before running this xbox, you need to back this stuff up, because when it is first run on a large HD, it formats the F: partition, so you will loose everything. the installer also warns of this.

[BlackWar]

Ok, peeps, I have an updated version out now, you can find it the same way you found the others.

also, being that this is more of a savegame thing, I will no longer be posting updates here, so for up-to-date info on this installer please be sure to check in on the thread that I have going on in the gamesave section.

thank you
