Modded Xbox thread


Recommended Posts

i read those articles you posted mike, pretty interesting. there was also one at the register (the first article linked to it). it's funny that vcrs, copy machines, etc. are all legal in the US, because they also have legal uses, but that becuase of the stupid POS that is the dmca, napster, modchips, etc. are all illegal now, even though there are justifiable legal uses for them as well. oh well.

I'm modding my own xbox, without a modchip! What im doing is hotswapping the hd to put the 007 save with evox installer (no mega x key, to expensive). Put it on the HD, putting it back in the xbox, executing it, and flashing the bios. Now thats 1337! i also have some cool programs for it and have linux mandrake 9 too! im thinking about putting in a 30gb hard drive too! so long for now.

Don't you have to solder something on the tsop though, before you're able to flash it?

i was using smart, i'll try flash next time. after searching xbox scene, i noticed a lot of people have this problem. no one really knows why, but apparently changing ftp program, settings, and fiddling usually fix it.

cerbero, how are you getting on with OS X and your Xbox? Can't say I've ever used any tools so the only equivelant I'll need to find is a decent FTP app, what do you use?

its software the xbox can run, donno the name of it (dont have a xbox ATM.) but, try searching like xbox-scene.com, or looking on efnet in #xbinx on their FTP... www.system-mods.com looks to be ok to buy chips from, although when i do get xbox (verry soon) ill be waiting for the X-B.I.T chip.

It's working fine. I extract ISOs with a command line application called extract-xiso. Using ccxstream to share media for XBMP. There is also XBMS for that purpuse, but I like the XBMSP protocol more than XNS, so I'm sticking with ccxstream :)

The FTP apps I use are ncFTP (cli) and Transmit.

For BIOS stuff, though (editing and beefing new ones up in size to be able to use them on the X2 Lite) I've got a PC in the other room. That could all be done through Virtual PC too, so no problem there even if I didn't have access to a PC.

Anubis187: Yeah doesn't matter what chip you have. You just start an application on the Xbox and rip the games.
