Its said on the readme that you obviously need to READ if youre going to flash the drive.

The firmware does not remove the region coding that is stored in the .xex files (.exe of 360) themselves and we cant change the .xex without a proper modchip.

Only if the game with those languages is "the PAL" version.. as in multi3 or multi5.

There can be different revisions of one game within a region, so if you download an SS for a pal game and it doesnt work then that SS could be from a different revision of the same game.

I too will have to see if the PGR3 SS in-cluded with xtreme package is "PAL UK" or PAL europe (germany + rest of eu).. my burn might not work!

Why has to scener said that the Hitatchi hack will be multi-regional then ?

The hitachi hack doesnt exist yet so once it does THEN we will know. But I'm pretty sure that as with the xbox1, the region information is stored in the .xex and the eeprom/kernel whatever and not circumventable with the drive firmware.

That's what I thought, but it's the fact that this piece of information came from To Scener who seems to be pretty involved in all of this.

I guess we'll just have to see though, the wait is seriously starting to piss me off now.
