    Ok this is driving me nuts everywhere I go on the net doesn't give you direct info as to where to download these hacked saves, I've tried everywhere including www.xbox-scene.com but I just keep getting lead around in circles. I've been to the xbins channel but I can't get voice to get a list of the servers so that option is out.

    Any ideas as to where to download these saves as I need them for softmodding the xbox,

    Cheers

    use this http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/xbins.php"]tutorial[/URL]
    it's a bit awkward but it works.
    Also read this and decide whether you want krayzie's Ndure installer or krayzie's UXE installer as Ndure does not work without dashboard version 5960.

    Never mind after I posted this post I managed to gain access to the xbinx ftp and fine the gamesaves I was after, cheers anyways.

    Now all I need to do is get my hands on an original copy of either Splinter Cell or 007: Agent Under Fire :P

    Try the used/preowned racks in your local game shop.

    Gonna see if I can rent one out first. If not try second hand or second hand in game, cheers lads.

    i got a copy of the original mech assault if you wanna borrow it. had to buy it in the end coz xtravision doesnt have any old games for rent. thay sell em off pretty quickly.

    it works great for softmodding.

    Hey thanks for all the help guys but seems the Xbox doesn't wanna recognise any flash disk that I put into the modified cable. So, looks like I'll be getting a chip. Unless Niall you have a proper memory card for the Xbox with the Mech Assault hack and the game that I could borrow? Would save me a fair amount of money :P

    You can pick one up on ebay for under a tenner

    Just to be sure, you have tried to format it using the MS Dashboard on the xbox? It wont be able to read the savegame from a windows formatted USB drive as Xbox mem-cards use a different filesystem called FATX. I think you can transfer the savegame to the USB thingy using this: http://www.xbox-saves.com/
    Forgive me if you know this already, I'm just making sure!

    Yeah I'm well aware of that :P I even went to great lenghts to actually delete the partition on the flash disks (I borrowed a friend's) as Windows doesn't let you do it. Any flash media I try, pen drives, USB flash card readers hell even my portable hard drive in DCIM mode still wouldn't recognise it, the dash itself just kept saying 'Memory Card is Damaged' and it's not being formatted to FatX. I even tried it in someone's modified Xbox and the same thing happened. Any chance I could get one of you guys to format the stick for me on your box?

    I'm not in dublin so I cant help but you could just buy an action replay for xbox for about €20 from Game. That's what I have and it works perfectly. Besides, the problem lies with the USB device not the xbox...unless your cable is dodgy?

    Recently I tried using a 64MB USB pendrive with a botched together (with tape) cable that I made for attaching a USB keyboard and the MSdash formatted it no problems.

    psp works fine for using as a memory card (just back up the game saves first) and found the cable instructions here: http://pinouts.ru/data/USB_pinout.shtml for usb wires and http://www.fury-tech.com/Modding/Xbox-Controller-PC-Conversion-Mod for xbox wires although they are the same colour so it's easy.

    I have the cable already a guy on boards made it for me but the dash still refuses to format it. Even tried it on a mate's hard modded Xbox and neither his MS dash or any of the other modded dashs would format the keys.

    keys must be gay, i used a twin mos one from komplet ages ago, worked perfectly, even works with my 360 for media(which it should do anyway)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,242 ✭✭✭MrVestek


    Errrm.... keys must be gay?! By the way that's not the only thing I tried. I tried a media card reader, my portable 20gb hdd and two other mate's usb pen drives.
