I know where to find ROMs, but I need to know what emulators work with Xbox, and how to put them and the roms on the Xbox.
I also need to know what I need and the terms.
I don't know where to get a chip and what a ftp thing is...
Help please. :(
First of all you need a modded xbox.
That means it's been either fitted with a mod-chip or soft-modded (ie. a vulnerability has been exploited). That'll enable your xbox to play dvd-rs or original games from any region. I suggest you find an electronics vendor, who supply this service, since that's the easiest solution for anyone new to the world of modchips. The operation takes no more than 30 mins, and isn't costly.
Some people also like to add a bigger HDD once their XB has been chipped, this is not necessary if you just wanna play emulators tho'
Secondly you need to state which systems you're interested in emulating, since the list of XB emulators is long. See for yourself (note! most of these are ports of PC emulators);

So when you're XB is ready to read DVD-Rs, and you have decided which emulators you want to try, feel free to come back here, and we'll help.
BTW: FTP = File Transfer Protocol. In short you connect your XB to your PC and transfer any files you want to.
Do I have to buy a chip? If so, where?
And is there any way of modding without putting some chip in?
There are several online retailers that deals in modchips, just do a google search for "modchip xbox", but then you'll have to install it yourself. Check the yellow pages to see who will do the operation locally for you, and at what price.
Yes you can mod an XB with a so-called soft-mod. It's usually some sort of savegam,e exploit, and can be a somewhat lenghty not to mention tricky process. I'm not direct linking to anything, but again, google is your friend; "xbox softmod"
Hello all...
I have a modded xbox and cant find any reliable sources for system emulators. I have an upgraded HD so I am looking to place everything (SNES, NES, all SEGA, etc) I can find on it! All info would be appreciated...
Ok, a friend of mine is helping me mod my Xbox, softmodding, too. So, he said you need to install some FTP program on your Comp b4 transfering the roms/emulators to your Xbox. Please elabortate.:happy:
Also, thanks for all your help. I am a newb with Xbox modding, though I can do quite well on all of Sony's systems. Imagine that.:dry:
Hello Toecutter II, I'm new on this forum... I have some questions about this subject, maybe you can help me (or someone else):
- Is there a way to play multiplayer GBA on XBox?
- I haven't seen any Saturn emulator, is there any SS emulator?
- Can I play 3D MAME fighting games like Dead or Alive or Tekken 3 on XBox?
Thank you in advance :)
No to all 3.Quote:

hey every one i have a moded xbox with evox an avalaunch dashboards i have several self installed emulators adamx, mameox launcher, neogenesis, pcsxbox, super nintendo entertainment system, surreal 64, xboyadvance, xsnes9x, and z26x. i was woundering how to actully put the roms on im not sure how to do that an i can not get ahold of the person who gave me this xbox so if any one could help me that would be great thanks for your time.......
do you have the unleashx dashboard or xbox media centre or an app called dvd2xbox coz you can burn the roms to cd in the form of a data disc.then you can use unleashx or xbmc file explorer to copy the roms to whichever emulators rom folder that you want.dvd2xbox will also copy the roms to your hdd if you burn them to disc.
I haven't done much reading on the XBox emulators, but are they fully compatiable for it? I recall a year ago reading some articles about it... including ones for the 360 (which required some extensive hacking).
as far as i know it is possible with some emulators but you always need to hack it, wich can oftenly be done by people in your neigborhood but it will cost you around 100$ {don't know for sure}Quote:

What can I do to fix this?
i don't know if its smart to post your IP out here.
Those are internal network IPs. Everyone has them and uses the same number range from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.255. It's impossible to do anything with those IP's as they are unreachable behind the NAT and won't gain you anything. It's completely safe, hell posting your WAN (what people on the internet connect to) isn't going to hurt you much either unless someone is specifically out to get you or you have shit security..
Anyhow
Why don't you just hook your Xbox up to the router? why are you going through your laptop?
You dont need a modchip to mod an original xbox.....you can doit by softmodding it. simple as that I used to mod a lot xbox with modchip in the past but after that I was doing it with soft modding If you need advice on the xbox matter let me know..... I also make an tabbletop arcade with an xbox... check my page**********
I'm interested in what this soft mod is called and/or where to get it. Any and all info would be apreciated. The last thing I modded was a PS1 with a solder chip, and I'm not trying to melt the Xbox board.
if your looking to softmod then you have 2 choices you can either do the hotswap method or you can use the gamesave exploit hack which is much easier.
and getting emus and roms on your xbox is easy if you know how to ftp.
or you can just burn them to cdrw/dvdr and the xbox will read them off the discs or you can burn the discs to the xbox hdd with dvd2xbox.
Hey, I'm completely new to the world of modded systems. I bought a modded xbox from a guy so I could play games from older systems like SNES and N64. Anyway is there any really simple way to take games from your computer and put them on the Xbox? if it helps I have an xbox modded with an Xecuter 3 with Avalaunch. I was told I could burn data DVDs so I did but can't figure out how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please keep in mind I'm not very tech savvy. Thanks a lot.
Could you ask the guy you bought it from?
I could walk you through it, but it's somewhat complicated and requires you to be familiar with the Xbox file browser. It also helps to know what sort of DVD drive is inside your Xbox to narrow the type of DVD media the Xbox can actually read.
But FTP'ing into the Xbox over LAN is a much better way of doing it.
I tried going through a D Link router I have, it's all hooked up correctly but was unable to connect, any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
I was just told that burning a disc was easiest and was unsure of whether to burn data CDs or DVDs so I did DVDs
Just thought of something, would going into my comp network settings and inputting the static IP (only one that shows up even when I enable DCHP) do any good?
if the games you have that you want to put on your xbox are iso files then burn them to dvdr with dvd decryptor then you can either play them off the dvd or burn them to your xbox hdd with the avalaunch dashboard file explorer.
if they are just files then burn them to cdr/cdrw as data discs and just do the same method as above for getting them onto your xbox hdd.
edit/dp you have any other dashes on your xbox like unleashx,xbmc or maybe dvd2xbox.
All the files I'm trying to get on there are N64 games right now. They all say either V64, Z64 or N64 file. But no ISO files.
STOP multiple posting. Edit your previous post if needed.
Burn the files onto a DVD-R (must be DVD-R since we don't know what sort of DVD drive your Xbox has), go into your dash, load up the file browser and copy the files over to F:\games\roms (default read location for surreal64).
it dosent matter about the iso files,the files you have are the correct ones.
just burn them as a data dvd.
I burned them as a data DVD but am unsure how to put them onto the hard drive of my xbox. It doesn't want to read the dvds. I tried dvd2xbox under my applications. Would ISO utilities under the Complex Tools menu work if I converted th files to ISO using Qwix?
You have to use the disk browser application, not dvd2xbox.
Ok, I'm in the file manager with all my drive folders. I'm pretty sure G is the DvD drive but it says Err:3 beside it, there is a disc in the drive with the games I wish to burn. Hopefully I'm on the right track.
On my Xbox the D: drive is CD, but I'm not sure if that's because of my BIOS (Xecuter) or dashboard (Slayer). If it says error, most likely the drive can't read the disk.
Yeah, see my huge problem is I assumed this would be a lot simpler. Just wondering, would a data cd with iso files be read easier? I know when I had a non modded unit that you could burn songs onto the hard drive. Kind of doubt it would be that simple but figured I would ask :)
Burning ISOs themselves would be pointless if they were just of N64 games. Give FTP'ing another go. It's less of a hassle in my opinion.
Alright, a couple more questions for now. There is a light on my xbox that says HD LAN. It shouldn't be red should it? Also are there any good walkthroughs for FTPing? I've read a few but they didn't work for me (Connection always times out)
the reason your dvdr is not reading on your xbox is coz depending on which dvd-drive you have in your xbox it can be picky about media.
i would try a cdrw or cdr maybe try a different brand if you have any lying around.
Do NOT try CD-R type media. The universally acceptable media that works with all three drives are DVD-R. Only Philips and Samsung can use CD-R, but it's sketchy.Quote:

That's the FTP tutorial I used. Remember, you MUST use FlashFXP to FTP in.
The dscs I have are all DVD+R, not sure if that would make a huge difference? Yeah thanks, I'll give that tutorial a try.
The other problem with using CD media is that there has to be enough data on the disk, or the Xbox won't recognize it. A size greater than 100MB is acceptable, but if you burned enough roms to fullfill that, then it seems like your Xbox can't read DVD+R, or at least that brand. DVD-R seems to have the best compatibility in terms of brand.
