    How to Mod my X-Box?

    in XBOX Hacks [/xbox]

    Posted

    Both of the softmods are very similar, just one replaces your default xbox dashboard altogehter, the other you can only get to with MechAssault.  Course the first isnt compatible with XBLive, and the second is.

    I never really thought about going online with XBlive. I like XBconnect instead.

    You don't have to spend that much on a mod chip.  You should consider the Aladdin chip, the cheapest Xbox chip that works on all versions.  Buy from robotpig.com.  They are based in Asia and are the cheapest I've found - $10 for the Aladdin.  Fast shipping, too, considering it's from across the world (took 1 week exactly for my last order).

     

    You do have to solder the Aladdins, but I'd recommend getting a solderable chip even if you were getting an expensive one.  From what I hear, the solderless adapters have a nasty habit of coming loose.  If you've never soldered before, you can practice for a while on old circuit boards.  Just break open an old digital clock or something and go to work.

     

    If you have an older Xbox (v1.0 thru v1.2), you can get a $4 cheapmod chip.  They can also work with new version Xboxes, but one of the solder points is INCREDIBLY difficult, and not recommended unless you have a hell of a lot of soldering practice.

     

    For more info, check out xbox-scene.com.

    I dont know how to solder. I dont have the patience. I like the idea of softmodding my xbox.

    3 options:

    1) Chip it ($30-$50, depending on the chip) - Choose a chip, buy it, open up your box and void the warranty, align the chip, place it on the board, add a screw and you're done.  (XBox modchips these days come with a solderless adaptor that uses the debug bios port ms left behind). Must turn off chip to go on xblive, or you can use xbconnect and not worry.

     

    2) Softmod it (get someone else to do it for you, $$ to them, or get an action replay and mechassault and I can tell you how to do it yourself) - copy savefile from memory card to xbox, run mechassault, select special savefile, ftp into xbox and copy files.  Must disable mod to go on xblive, or you can use xbconnect and not worry.

     

    3) Partial softmod (works on all xboxes) - same mechassault / save hack except with a full bios loader and dash setup.  After this mod is applied, your xbox is still like a normal xbox but to get to your emulators or games you have to put in mechassault and  select the savefile.  If you want on xblive, dont start up the mod dashboard through mechassault.

     

    You can also buy a replacement harddrive ($50+) if you want to have pirated xbox or ps1 games on there, but it is not necessary.

     

    Choose one.

    Do softmods work on all xboxes?

    EDIT: Why do both of the softmods sound like the same? What are the differences?

    You need to change the Test Menu settings to allow 3 players. I haven't tested this myself, so I'm not sure. FBA supports more than to players at least.

    Yes its been tested I've done this to all my multiplayer CPS games. I love it when me and my friends beat these games. For huge fun try King of Dragons on Very Hard only using 5 credits.

    i used to use norton untill i got a trojan that it couldn't find it even being fully updated :)

     

    so i installed mcafee and it found and deleted the trojan unlike norton and ever since i've been using it and its been great but one thing that does annoy me is when wanting to play a pinball table using pinmame+visual pinball, it will keep asking me if i want to allow the script to run for each table i wanna play :-D

     

    btw, any info on this avg?

    well its free and updates are for free. It cleared up all the virus when I got it. I had about 37 viruses on my first Virus scan. l

    Hahaha! I remember once I was playing Excitebike on the N64 at Walmart and these kids are like, "Play the 3D one! This one sucks! Get off!" I wanted to go "shut up you punk bitches! This is the real stuff, omg stfu n00b lol!"

    Kids like those only view 3d games as better ones, (they don't know anything about video games) you should have told 'em off or somethin.

    Yeah I should have. I should have even kicked them in the shin, but I was too busy enjoying a classic. And I love to hear little punks like them complain.

    I cant stand crap like that. I would have whooped all their asses. But sadly I have heart :P
