Title: Error 21 When Launching Evox
Post by: stanneh on October 09, 2003, 07:10:00 AM
just quickly scanned through your prob there it wont matter what memory card your using dude everyone uses AR to do this my guess is your exploit gamesave has a evoxdash.xbe thats not signed with the -habibi signature.

my advice is to download a better gamesave.

thanx a lot for your help stanneh smile.gif

for now i'm just trying to launch EvoX with this exploit, and after that i would like to install PBL and EvoX on E: by myself, step by step (i prefer because it's better to understand what i do and how the hack works...)

unfortunately i don't have a ftp adress where you can upload your savegame, but i give you my mail so if the file is less than 5Mo it will pass without problem : [email protected]

do you have only the savegame with Evox please ? i'm interested because perhaps savegames i found on the net were only for NTSC xbox... so i want to try yours ! i ask myself a question too : you said the name of EvoX in your save is evoxdash.xbe, but that's for the exploit when you boot PBL before calling Evox... in simple savegames to launch EvoX, its name is default.xbe, correct ?

hi there and first of all sorry for my english i'm french smile.gif

i've read a lot on the error 21 problem here in the forums, and have the same : when trying to launch EvoX with a 007 or Mechassault savegame i always get the black screen of death...
i have Xbox 1.3 (kernel 5101, dashboard 4920) and Action Replay to put the savegame on my xbox DD.

what do you think i should do ? buy a MS memory card to use with AR, try to sign default.xbe with habibi, delete all games saves on my DD before putting 007/MA save, or try to include Phoenix Bios Loader with EvoX in the save ? and also i'm in europe, so do the exploit work with PAL Xbox ?

thanx in advance for your help !

I got the Error 21 using an interactive memcard, bought a Ms memcard and the 007 savegame from Gouki tutorial worked the 1st time I tried it.
Evox came up and I could ftp in to the Xbox.

But trying to integrate the Phoenix bios in the savegame is a total failure....

sadly i don't know how to help the original poster, but in response to this quote, just run evo-x the way you are now, and get a copy of the complete signed phoenix bios loader, and follow the installation instruction's and install it by ftp'ing it to your xbox through evo-x.

1) your using an AR memory card - i ended up having 2 swapped and even then the memory cards turned out to be faulty.
2) bought a thrustmaster cheap as chips memory card and everything now works fine.

3) to transfer the save to the xbox hdd.
3.1)firstly save the required gamesave onto the memory card with the AR software.
3.2) Start the Xbox without any sort of cd in the tray.
3.3) go to memory on xbox dash
3.4) choose your memory card (takes acouple of seconds to read info.
3.5) go dow to the games save ie 007 or mechassault and then press Right to highlight the smaller of the 2 icons.
3.6) press A, highlight COPY, Press A it should now change to the xbox hdd Press A again and it will copy the game save on to your xbox hdd.

hope the above is a good explanation for transferring the gamesave from memcard to hdd.

ok dragor  tongue.gif i know how to transfer a savegame to the xbox HD  biggrin.gif
but nice explanation by the way  laugh.gif
so your advice is that my AR card is faulty... well i think i've tried everything possible with this exploit and always the same result  mad.gif so tomorrow i will buy a MS memory card to be sure...
but if the AR memory card is buggy, why after tranfer seems the savegame OK on the xbox HD ??

i have a thrustmaster world cup edition fair play its a beast i quickly softmoded a mates xbox with it and he gave it to me then lol its great but AR is good becouse you can transfer the save game via pc

i know of a good couple of peaple who have used the AR with no problem sounds like they might be right it could be faulty.

it's surprising because the savegame seems ok on the Xbox HD with AR...

Anyone have luck with a "Hip Gear" memery card? Or even heard of it ?

logoliv,

Please post your results with the MS mem card.  I have tried two xbox systems and keep getting that stupid error 21 after I load the saved game from the HD with AUF.

I'm now suspecting it is my mem card (bought from ebay; generic mem card) but still not sure.

Anyway, I'm curious if this will work for you.

some questions about things i want to try :
was your PC connected to the Xbox when you launched the hack ?
did you change network config before in the MS dashboard ?
how did you put the savegame on the HD ? with AR ?

My PC was not connected and I have not changed the network config. I used a modded controller/usb cable to transfer the gamesave with AR.

thaught i might let yall know that the gamesave i use everyday didnt work for him either so there is something fucked AR wise or something pretty misterious going on.

i made some tests with stanneh's savegame and gouki's MA save, and i've noted a very strange thing indeed : when i put the saves on the xbox HD, run the hack (with error 21 of course lol) and retransfer the saves on my PC with AR, the files default.xbe and evox.ini don't have the same CRC (cyclic redundance code) in winrar 3.2 ! all the other files remain untouched
it means that these 2 files have been modified by the xbox...

what do you think ?

Post by: stanneh on October 10, 2003, 10:04:00 AM
i think maybe MS payed Action Replay a lot of money or promissed them the equivalent to corrupt.xbe files?

Post by: logoliv on October 10, 2003, 11:46:00 AM
smile.gif AR isn't faulty for that ! in fact there are 2 possibilities : MS modified the recent kernels to make the hack unoperative, or the old EvoX version with the gamesaves on the net aren't compatible with the new xboxes (v1.3 and after)
Title: Error 21 When Launching Evox
Post by: stanneh on October 10, 2003, 12:22:00 PM
the gamesave you had off me has the latest evoxdashboard.

Or a 3rd option is that the savegame get corrupted while transfering it to the xbox (or from the pc to memcard). I have read this in the forum earlier that retransferring the savegame many times eventually resolve the 21 error. (did not help me)

What happens if you transfer the savegame to the AR memcard and then transfer it back to the PC ?

There is anoter way you can do this take you MS memory card then....put that in you AR doking station.After that is done your PC well pop up with a notice that says new hardware dected.install the hardware.Then put the file on that memory card instead of the AR card.Then you just save it to your hardrive then bam load it up with your xbox and your done.

Hope this helps
