Does anyone have an XMugen setup with 1GB swapfile that installs into F:\Emulators\XMugen rather than F:\Games\xmugen ?

[FourTwentySmiles]

I'm new to Xmugen.....so forgive me.  

I have installed a build of Xmugen to my F drive, and now when I try to launch it, it boots straight to a black screen.

Any help would be great.....I'd love to play this thing!!!

[FourTwentySmiles]

i think its Xmugen 4.9 built for F drive install. I read in a very old post that I needed Xdsl for this to run. I done an install of that ( Ive done the linux thing before) and it runs fine, except it doesnt recognize my 3rd party wireless controller. Is the Xdsl really needed? please say its not these days. the thought of a fighting games thats traditional 2D and has ump-teen hundred characters!

[FourTwentySmiles]

Since GentooX and Xdsl are both Linux for Xbox......would I be able to play Xmugen from GentooX like you do from Xdsl?

I put this question here instead of the nix*on xbox forum cause I really want Xmugen running on my Xbox.

And Ive read you dont even need Xdsl or anything to run Xmugen now, but I cant get it working either way. ( with or without Xdsl working)

Im drowning in it right now......help!

[FourTwentySmiles]

OK.......I now have a working copy of Xmugen on my xbox. What I am now wondering is how to add characters.
If I understand correctly...I need to edit the select.def file.  Seeing as how my dev skillz are up to par with the likes of Napoleon Dynamite (and you know he gots skillz).......Im screwed.

Maybe not.......Once I understand what Im lookin at, Ill be ok.

I Hope.

Guess what......Now that Ive spent more than 3 hours editting that damn file....Xmugen wont even load now.  I am now pulling hair out at the roots. Before I added characters it worked fine. Now the piece of crap will start.....askes me what screenpack I want....I choose screenpack... it boots thru Gentoox ( just like before)..., and then it loads a solid white screen while my LED blinks green. WTF is going on here?

PLEASE!!!!!!!! Help me!!!!!!!

[FourTwentySmiles]

What the hell does this mean......."Joystick/dev/input/js1 non present"  mean?

[FourTwentySmiles]

I give up. This thing is the biggest load of CRAP I have EVER seen. I finally get a version that runs.......But you cant select anything except the "Kung Fu Man" Screenpack.....the only charater you can get is Kung Fu Man......and half the time it says some wack crap about the joypad. I spent all night trying and trying to get this infernal thing to work right.....editing this file...editing that file. I added over 600 Freaking characters and almost 50 different stages......I put them in that stupid select.def file, only to find out that THIS THING BARELY WORKS!!!! Deleted it off the HDD.....reinstalled it to the HDD. Doing this....Doing that. I mean, for real.......you gotta work at f*ckin Microsoft to get this damn thing to run or something?  Everything I have EVER tried with my Xbox comes out Peaches-n-Creme.....except the one thing that I would really love to have running on it. My Dash.....GREAT!  All my other Emulators.....7 total....work! Over 170 movies.....Play GREAT. More than 20 complete seasons of Television......All FINE!  WHY?  Why the hell cant I get this stupid thing to work??  Would someone who has know how PLEASE get me going?  PLEASE? Seeing as how I blew my whole night trying to get this thing going......I wont be back on here till around 3-4 pm today ( gotta sleep sometime). Please....no " you dont know what ur doing" or BS like that.....This isnt my first Modded Xbox.......this is only my first Xmugen.

[FourTwentySmiles]

I'm having my own problems with Xmugen......but I think you use Xmugen Renamer.

[FourTwentySmiles]

That vid is not gonna help me.....I have had it running couple times, so Ive seen it boot.

There WAS a link to a vid on how to install to xbox, but with so many versions who knows if that would have helped. I say "would have" cause I watched it....or tried to watch it. The video is blurry all the way through...and the guy speaks with a very strong Indian ( from India, not Native American) accent. You cant see or understand much of anything.

This is just too bad.....I really wanted to experience Mugen and I dont play games from my PC. I thought this would be perfect for me.

Guess I'm just S.O.L. for the moment.

[FourTwentySmiles]

I never have been one to just give up.....so here I am, sweating it out .......AGAIN.

It would be ALOT simpler for others to enjoy if anyone with a working copy of this would upload it somewhere......and then maybe post a link?

P.S. - I started this a week ago with hair to my waist..........I am now bald from pulling it out!

[FourTwentySmiles]

OK.....This is the one I now have on my xbox.
 Here is the link....Xmugen m3troMOD v1

This IS the ONLY version I can get to run properly.
I still cant add characters, and let me tell you......Playing KUNG FU MAN, well, it aint no big thrill.
I still cant add stages, and let me tell you.....You see where this is going?    Right?

What is going on?
I hear about so much success with this thing, but Im startin to wonder how it gets the hype it does.
If it is such a pain in the butt to get going....and a pain to update...and a pain to add characters...or stages and music.

Seems to me like it would be more fun to play, not to have to re-dev.....just to see one guy in a karate suit.

I uploaded the my original 4.9 f drive xmugen make sure you place it in f:games and unleash x dash.
go here to get it. let me know what happens. Again what controllers are you using if you have the dvd ir in one of the ports or any thing besides the controllers i told you about it will crash. Good luck.

Four Twenty what version is your xbox if its v1.6 you might really be S.O.L.

[marveldcbruno]

That should not affect it. The only thing a 1.6 affects it the over scan issu.I had a 1.6 and xmugen work just fine. broken mugen screen p. should help with the over scan issue.

Hey tabasco what screenpack are u looking for.
