Title: Softmod Idea
Post by: Malumvolo on August 07, 2007, 10:03:00 PM
Hey I just thought of this softmod Idea, I bet someones thought of it before, but I havnt seen this Idea anywhere else.

Use Datel's XSata device in combination with the original xbox action replay (or any other way to transfer original xbox games to the 360)

use an original xbox gamesave exploit (such as the one for mechassault) except it would have to be re-coded for the xbox 360 executable and not a .xbe format.

I think it would be possible unless microsoft patched the exploit in the emulation process.

Im sorry to double post, as I am new to this forum and dont see any edit button.

But even if this has been asked before, I want to know if it is even possible.

Quoting myself...

"I think it would be possible unless microsoft patched the exploit in the emulation process."

Have they, because if it has been tried to use this and it wont launch the installer, then thats the end of story (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

A very oversimplification... but..

Wont work.... the flaws were HARDWARE flaws in the original xbox which allowed buffer overruns when writing memory address.

The 360 is complete SOFTWARE emulation.  It is not suspectable to such attack vectors.
