Title: What Exactly Do I Need?
Post by: joseph_hac on December 13, 2003, 12:28:00 PM
Hello,
I was wondering what exactly was needed to take screenshots and movie clips?
Do I need the full XDK and SDK, or just the debug BIOS?
Would TATX BIOS allow me to take screen shots?
I am taking advanced data structures w/ C++ next semester after winter break, but until then, I don't think I'll be able to spit out any productive apps for the box anywayz. So right now I just want to get some cool movies on the web!

you need the PC aspect of the XDK and the debug BIOS...

So it's no need to install Visual Studio.NET on my PC and xdk launcher on my XBOX if i only want to take screenshots? I only have to flash or bfm a TATX Debug bios and install XDK on my PC?Coz i see in a tutorial they use the TATX "AnyDash" plugin to run EVOX after the debug bios runs, and looks like there's nothing to do with the xdk launcher and you don't need to run it... thx.

havent messed with any of that, but im pretty sure the easiest way to do it would be to install VS.NET+XDK on yor PC, run the debug BIOS on your xbox then take a screenshot..
but thatd only be for debug games remember

lol.. yes, you can. Some games (like halo) wont load because of the lack of ram, but I do believe there is a way around that.

i am currently running with the complex 4627 bios, and im also trying out the tatx debug one too. i was wondering if anyone could tell me what the difference between the two are. and secondly, i can get in-game screenshots in only a few select games, not all. is this normal?
