Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows how to let nkpatcher work for X2CL bios. The reason I want this is because I want to be able to connect my VGA monitor to my xbox. Currently I'm using a home made VGA cable in combination with IND 5001 VGA bios. (See xbox-scene forums how to do this)
This works perfectly..... Well not quite ...
Most games work, some games display in green suddenly and some display constantly in green. (See xbox-scene forums how fix this for some games by hex editing. But this does not work for all games and you must edit the xbe files.)
Now according some people when using nkpatcher (used in the softmod scene) in combination with the 'VGA SOG patch' all games work perfectly in VGA mode. (Without any green problems)
Now I use a xecuter2 modchip with X2CL bios and I really would like to connect my VGA monitor to my xbox while using the X2CL bios.
Now as far as I understand, nkpatcher patches the retail bios and enables most of the features, which X2CL already gives. So I not interessed in those patches. Except for the VGA patch nkpatcher can do which X2CL cant do.
I looked at the source code for nkpatcher and what it basically does is first detecting which retail bios is running and next overwritting certain bytes, which enable the features. Well suppose it is possible to change the code in that it can detect a X2CL bios and overwrite those bytes needed for the VGA patch.
Is there anyone that can tell me if my reasoning makes any sense and if it is possible to enable the VGA patch which nkpatcher does for an xecuter bios?
