No changelog for 5.84, but here's 5.83

19th March  2006 - GameEx 5.83

 

* There's now the facility to view Favourites (we spell it like that in England) by System/Emulator.

* After exiting from a random game you will be left on the game information page for the game, so you can see what it is, and add it to favourites.

* DVD's module now caches the list of DVD's the first time it's loaded during a session.

* Fixes audio level output not showing for the track when it's showing in the list.

* There's a new additional WAV sound file GameEx uses - launch.wav. * This is played whenever a game is launched. 

* This release should fix being able to not exit attract mode if you press coin in or press a joystick button. If it's still not working for you please report on the forums.

TheSpecialist has done it and made a video as proof.

Months of hard work have come to an end. The 360 FW security details were posted a few days ago already, so why not make it official    It's been done.

 

Respect to all the people on this board who made it possible with their brilliant contributions:

 

Anita999, Geremia, Nayr, Bluecop, Interestedhacker, MacDennis, Phantasm, Marvin, Tiros, SpenzerX, Team Modfreakz, Fuzzylogic, Takires, loser, jasper, SMO, Groepaz, Zobyone, Jumba, Amadeus, Tser, DjHuevo, oz_paulb, DaveX, darkfly, evestu, Robinsod, Dark_Neo, Gael360, Seventhson, probutus.

 

Just for fun, here's a little video: http://rapidshare.de/files/15810304/360hack.mpg.html. And no, the team decided not to release a hacked FW. The security details are proof itself. The team advocates hacking, not piracy.
