I'll keep it going as long as it's possibe, besides, doing this is giving me good practice at Actionscript, been a while since I did it last.Frexwix said:

I'm sure there will always be a need for a MAC version though.
The post was aimed at ThaCrip. Sorry for being unclear. Nice to know that the app is running for some time though. =)Klutsh said:

I may end-up losing the Web-based version, but I'll be keeping the PC MAC version.
What's this mean, well Linux users should be able to use 'WINE' to run it. (Not Tested)

I've been using X2ool and decided to try this out......so much better. color presets were one of my biggest wants.
Awesome job Klutsh!!!!
Awesome job Klutsh!!!!
Please dont get rid of the web version. I use it at client's houses, very useful. I like this tool a lot. As for more features, i cant think of anymore. This is pretty much all you need. Great job!!!
yes... "flubber preview" will be about the only thing i can think of that would be a nice addition to the program... along with LBA48 adjustment like x2tool has.Klutsh said:
but on a side note... compareing your "x2 config maker" to "x2tool" ... main reason i like your program better is the "presets" (on colors)
... yours looks better to... although x2tool is basic and nice and fast (cpu etc wise)... so in that sence i would say x2tool has the advanatage... but when is all said and done if i had to choose one, i would most likely choose yours cause of the color presets. those saved me time of screwing around trying to get the colors right since u had the "light blue" which is exactly the way i had my previous X2.4981 bios setup.... if u want in the future u can probably add more color presets although i think u got the bulk of the good stuff covered already keep up the good work

theres a chance i might have found a bug with your X2 config maker program... it conserns the connectivity part.
basically to sum it up... after i setup my configuration settings etc on it and i type in my xbox's ip address (which is 192.168.1.3) i click on "SAVE TO XBOX" then it says "TRANSFERRED" then i used FlashFXP to ftp into the xbox and i checked my E:\ partition but there is NO x2config.ini file there... so im assuming it did not transfer.
im using X2.5028 bios and AVALAUNCH v0.49.3 when i tested this.
UPDATE: i just tested it with EVOX and it works perfect... so there is a issue with your program and avalaunch... please fix this ASAP ... thanks

I've seen other FTP bugs like this on the Xbox, not sure who's problem it really is. This post over in the Craxtion message boards suggests XBMC and Avalaunch have changed up FTP server commands and are at fault. I know this issue has been about in Ava since at least December, don't know if they have any intent of correcting it if it is indeed their problem.
Unless Klutsh has a way to work around it in his program, save the file to your PC and then manually FTP it over. Or wait for the X2CL XBE to be released.

thanks for the update... but one thing is missing from this new look u made... the presets are gone! ... but i aprreciate the "liteness" of the program though
im not complaining ... but it sure would be nice if u could get those presets back into this new v2.5 ... then it would be perfect... nice and lite program with the presets... then it will be superior to just about all other apps like this out there... any chance u can add in the LBA48 switching options? ... if u can do that it will be FLAWLESS.
thanks for listening

I second these suggestions along with the flubber preview but what happened to the FTP feature? I use it alot when modding others' consoles.ThaCrip said:thanks for the update... but one thing is missing from this new look u made... the presets are gone!

Other than that, thanks for the kickass app, no other app of this kind touches it,

The LBA48 switching option is not a part of the x2config.ini, which is the only file Klutsh's program works with. Changing LBA48 is a hex mod in the bios itself. I don't know if it is possible for this to be controlled outside of the bios, my guess would be that it isn't. IIRC, the bios loads into memory at boot and then starts accessing the hardware. To change this based on an external file I think the process would need to be something like this-ThaCrip said:
* load bios
* read config file
* check if bios and config LBA48 settings match, if OK execute dash/DVD/etc. ELSE
* hex mod new bios in memory
* FLASH (!!!) new bios back onto chip
* reboot to initialize new bios
Knowing that a "stuck in the middle" flash routine was there would scare the bejebus out of me. (until I upgrade to an X3 with the nice backup bios!) Unless there is another way I don't see this as being a risk the general population would be willing to take, or something that the team would want to even code.

The LBA48 patching is being worked on, It's fairly easy, I just need to figure out how to make the required MFC-DLL.
The main reason I've left it this long though is that yo only ever really patch the LBA option once and then flash it to your chip.
The FTP was removed on a temporary basis as 5030 now looks on E:\ & F:\ for the ini file, I'll be adding it back as soon as it test's ok using either path.
I'm also adding a checking routine to make sure things have worked ok.
It was a rather nasty hack before.
Flubber Preview is also taking time as I'm in 2 minds as to how to do it, I can either take a screen grab on overlay colour onto it, or try to recreate a singe frame of the Flubber secquence in a vector based format.
Big_Whoopin: The LBA48 options are nolonger in the config file.

The vector based alternative would probably be the most accurate, huh?Klutsh said:
Btw, great job on the config-prog-thingy!
