If you want to run it from a DVD, I would change the Path.ini to this:
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 1\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 2\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 3\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 4\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 5\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 6\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 7\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\artwork\Shots 8\
E:\SAVES\Zsnexbox\sram\
E:\SAVES\Zsnexbox\save\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\ini\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\rumble\
E:\SAVES\Zsnexbox\cheats\
E:\SAVES\ZsnexBox\garbage\
D:\roms\
You can also replace the "E:\" with "F:\" or "G:\" in the above paths.
Almost all of the directories in the Path.ini must be on the hard drive because this is where cheats, rumbles, previews, ini files, etc... are written. All of the above folders must exist before launching the default.xbe. The reason it failed before is because your ini path was set to the DVD drive. It tried to write the ini to the DVD and failed. This caused the crash.
The "D:\roms\" is the only path that is safe to make relative when running from a DVD.
A minor suggestion. When run from CD/DVD on a fresh or cleaned xbox, you won't be able to have previews/box arts, the settings and favorites, unless you manually transfer them to harddrive first. I also would suggest bring back the feature that zsnexbox creates directories that do not exsit. This would make it much easier to run from DVD. The DVD should be self contain, instead of some other ways to create the directories before load the DVD.
nes6502, thank you for such a great program.
