Title: Were Is Bfm Support?
Post by: bucko on August 04, 2005, 01:07:00 PM: QUOTE
Flash Unconstrained Core Kernel Initialization Technology, allowing you to load bioses directly from HDD, without flashing them to a bank

Does it really take them more than a year to implement this? I would like this to test out new bioses, load more dashboards and try out differen't ani settings.

However they haven't delivored on there promise, or am I wrong perhaps there working on it since I remember that one of the Xodus guys made Phoenix Bios Loader? Why is it so hard to implement this? Why do I always have BFM support still in Beta testing on my Xenium OS? Is it still in beta testing after a year or have you just given up?

Sorry to sound harsh but it gets me annoyed cause you got me all excited a year ago with this and I'm still waiting on further news, about time for an OS update anyway.

Thanks TeamXodus I'm sure you will continue to do well, before you say yes I do have an Xenium Blue obviously lol. I must stress this is not a hate/flame post its just something I want to make TeamXodus aware of.

IMO, xodus needs to do what xecuter does and not announce anything until its almost shipping, or already shipping. Skryer is vaporware, bfm is vaporware, etc, but they did bring us changing leds! Woohoo! Ya, xodus' marketing is a joke, I have no complaints with the products they actually MAKE and SELL, but their marketing is hilarious.

The only thing my chips do is boot dash etc and have 'nice leds'. I decided Id rather pay a third or a quarter of the price and have the same features, well usable ones.

Fancy LED's with a new OS that makes them more difficult to configure just doesnt sell to me.

But on the other hand thanks for crippling your chips so much xodus because you made me learn to solder If they had been all they could have been I might not be able to solder and paying a lot more for chippies.

Post by: metaldevil on August 05, 2005, 07:25:00 AM: They do spin a lot of B.S. don't they? What's the name of their mythical LCD screen? Still no update on that. As for XOSv3, I wouldn't count on them to deliver that until after the New Year. I'm willing to bet that they, right along with us, will be completely absorbed with anything 360-related. I think it's completely understandable if they postpone it further. We'll see.

As far as that flash unconstrained blah blah blah is concerned, I find it hard to believe that it wasn't intentional. Van Halen did something similar with their 1991 album For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge: FUCK.

Post by: cackles on August 05, 2005, 12:33:00 PM: whats this post about again? i got carried away looking at metaldevil and appleguru sigs ... but anyways ... i hope all these 'would be' features are going to be implememnted on the 360 versions of the chips ... might make me buy them.

as for the sodlerless adapter ... i dunno how people CANT get them to work, ive fitted them in everything from 1.0 with filled holes (and never emptied them) to 1.4's with no hitch at all ...
