BTW Think This Thread can be pinned? or at least till someone makes a patcher tool

I AGREE

PLEASE PIN IT UNTIL XBTOOL IS UPDATED

WE LOVE YOU NGHTSHD

SAVE US!

BE A HERO... AGAIN

yes i know the text is huge

man I knew I should have gotten a chip.  I would just hex edit it, but I am using the TSOP and if I mess up so much as one digit I could be screwed.  I sure hope that NghtShd decides to upgrade Xbtool.  I am not one to complain though because I am not exactly helping...just wondering if you have any suggestions for someone using TSOP other than to double check everything.

Try the
XBtool Color Bios Preset Maker

http://dwl.xbox-scen..._Maker_1.0b.rar

You can change the color and see the results, remember to change from the RGB codes to BGR

My Color Preset is X: 0016E5, XGLOW: E0EEFF, Lip: 0200A8, Lip Spot: 001265
Nothing special

Still USE AT OWN RISK

• Multiple boot partition (eg. F:\evoxdash.xbe E:\evoxdash.xbe C:\evoxdash.xbe)
  
• LED color changing (just red would do for me )

Well done to everybody who's been working on this so far.  Now, there's just a couple more tweaks I'd like to be able to implement.  If anybody can help with these 2 requests, that would be great   Multiple boot partition (eg. F:evoxdash.xbe E:evoxdash.xbe C:evoxdash.xbe) LED color changing (just red would do for me )

Nghtshade already posted on those 2 topics.  He was inserting his own code into the end of the bios. That was what gave XBTOOL the ability to change the boot partitions and LED color.

Mostlikely inorder for us to be able to change them we would have to get updated code for 4980 and inject it into the bios before repacking.

just cranked out a blue and red 4980 (both 06 and 67) with no ani, no tm, and no splash (left the x on the screen) and all 4 worked great!  thanks for the hacking skorchir!

   i cant seem to find the TM Hex offset , i try the one that s writen there but Ultra Edit32 doesnt find it

[...ReLLiK]

I use UltraEdit and it found that Trademark offset just fine. Just use Ctrl-G to use Goto Location and enter 0x00060968 and it will take you right to the 18 you need to change to 20!

hey couldnt someone just make some ppf patches for people ? would make it less complicated i guess for newbs

yes i was considering something like this but then i was able to find that NghtShd posted his source on his web site. only problem is its an old version 1.0.5    but anyway i started installing VS.NET and am going to look into this code and see if i can whip something up but dont wait on me or expect anything coming. i am merly going to play around and if i can come up with something you will find out. i dont plan on doing a whole lot since 4981 is going to be released and all offsets are going to be relocated again so that will need some tracking down. but dont expect anything   i am a very busy and tired person   and caught up with lots of school work.

Hey take your time man. If XBtool isn't gonna be updated ever again, I'm sure we can all wait for you do release whatever you release

I'm personally sticking with 4979 until _someone_ releases an Xbtool type app for 4980/4981. I would mess with hex editing but I have ax xecuter 2.3 Lite, and no programmer. So if the bios goes bad I'm kinda screwed. Not really worth the risk.

So yea. Take your time.

It really isn't that complicated. I did mine in about 5-10 minutes and flashed it to a different bank on my x2.1lite and it worked fine... then I just flashed my bank back to normal tested it and then flashed my 4980 back to my main bank... all is well in xboxland! Just use Flash 1.2 on your xbox... as you can flash individual banks! Mine has the colors changed, the no anim and no trademark changed! It is super easy with UltraEdit (The best text viewer able to read tons of formats).
