Hacking X360USB pro V2 - slight issues

[kristianity77]

yep. There were two actually that wouldnt verify for some reason. Not in the database or something (The Darkness 2 and Prince Of Persia Forgotten Sands) but I just sourced them online and everything was fine. The Xk3ys a great bit of kit really. Much more convenient!

8 days to backup 126 Xbox games.

126 games is impressive, I think we have just over 30.

 

[kristianity77]

that was a collection built up from 2005 though. Maybe a game a month or so from release. They soon built up.

What I was going to ask anyone, and I might make a new thread about it, is there any games worldwide that might be region free that never saw a PAL release that are worth trying to get hold of?

 

[DinohScene]

Aye aye.
Yeh, as long as the CRC's match and XGD3 data is there ;]

Ehm.
If a game is region free then every 360 can play it without any problems.
Doesn't matter if it's released in your country or not.

Is that the topology data part? I know quite a few i ripped said that that data was missing, but then it automatically seemed to fix it. I hope. Everything ended green at the end anyway so assumed it was fine

 

[DinohScene]

Yes yes.
And it's found on a few XGD2 games.

If you ran it through ABGX then it'll be automatically patched.
You could run everything through it again (and skip Game CRC check since you already done that) and check if everything is green.

anyone here got the Wifi dongle for the Xk3y? Im already not liking using the remote and wont risk the isomenu etc. Ive got an android phone and tablet and see there is an app for the xk3y. Wondering if its any good as info seems to be a bit scarce as to whether they are decent or not?

 

[DinohScene]

Nope, never used it never seen it.

ISOMenu is safe tho.
It's confirmed to be a hoax by the Xkey admins in order to sell more remotes.

 

[kristianity77]

ISOMenu is safe? Everything I read suggested otherwise. Damn! lol

 

[DinohScene]

Yep.
It's confirmed to be a rumor when the Xkey admins admitted they spread it to increase sales for the remotes.

I can imagine it from their point of view cause they got a product to sell + if ISOmenu fails then the users always have the remote available.

 

[kristianity77]

right well I got an hour to kill im gonna have a mess with this. Think its disabled by default. Will have a go at getting it working and see what its like

 

[DinohScene]

It's pretty neato to use.
Friends of mine where I installed Xkeys in also use it ;]

 

[kristianity77]

Yeah its all up and running. Ill just use this instead then.

Ive noticed on youtube that people using Isomenu were getting box art and stuff displayed for their games, where as Im just getting the normal 360 text list. Is that a difficult thing to sort out?

 

[DinohScene]

I haven´t had DVDmenu working, tried many times but gave up on it ;p

 

[kristianity77]

ISOMenu is a right pain in the arse. Cant figure out what Im doing wrong, but on first bootup, it takes about 3 or 4 tries of pressing Y to eject to get it go start. This is how its going:

Press Y (Open Tray)
Press Y (Close Tray) - Nothing
Press Y again (Open Tray)
And again - (Close Tray) - Nothing
Press Y again - (Open Tray) - Then it will sometimes auto go close tray, reading, mixed media disc.

I cant understand why its not doing it first time.

I even leave the 360 for a minute first after booting to see if that makes a difference but it doesnt. Hmmm

 

[DinohScene]

The Xkey needs to load in all the ISO's
Just be patient and wait a minute or 2 before ejecting the tray.

Mate of mine got the same problem, he has 2TB worth of ISO's on his HDD.

 

[kristianity77]

Your right (as usual!) I just switched it on, left it, and it takes nearly 2 minutes to pop up with the HDD Connected on the remote.

Ah, well at least nothing is broken!

 

[DinohScene]

Gheh ;p
Yeh it just takes a while for a load of ISO's to be detected.
Do you have the ISO's in folders inside the "GAMES" folder or just straight in the "GAMES" folder?

 

[kristianity77]

Well, when I was using the remote I had them in folders in the Games folder to make it quicker to find them. But now im using ISOmenu i just have all the ISOs in the game folder

 

[DinohScene]

You could try and put them all into folders again.
It might speed up detection.
I'm not sure of it tho but it could work.
