for those of you who know me from efnet / console-spot / oldschool hacking days, i decided to just pop in and give you guys a little background on team-xecuter since it seems a lot of you don't know their background, and are questioning the legitimacy of this upcoming mod.. i never really left, just retired and im more of a lurker now and have a family with no time to really devote to testing...

alot of people don't know this but team-xecuter originate all the way back to the original playstation one.. heres a little history

Playstation One - 8 Wire Hardware Mod, which they also ended up giving away the flash for the atmel chips for free...
Playstation 2 - 44 Wire Neo Mod
Xbox - Enigmah, Xecuter, Xecuter 2, Xecuter 3, Various LCD and Cosmetic Mods
Xbox 360, (C4Eva Firmware Flash for Drives, C4Eva was a Team-Xecuter Member, or they at least sponsored him, Cool Runner, Demon, RGH Attacks, also Controller Mods for Autofire and stuff)

So saying they have never released anything that wasn't hardware related is incorrect, the drive flash was free for the 360, until hardware was needed to continue flashing it due to updates in hardware by microsoft.. Also its kind of crazy to doubt anything they show off.. Whether it be a hardware mod or a software mod, they will have something out pretty soon here in the next couple of months. If you don't want to use their software or their mods, then dont' pretty simple as that, if you are afraid to solder but want the mod, im sure all the old installers will be right back in business.. but knowing team-x, they try to provide solderless solutions, which may be a simple clip you screw in and bend some spider legs to the correct points.. either way, im excited, can't wait.. k3 if you read this, hit me up I lost your number, i know you heard the bad news about lee, would like to chat ya up.

Happy Hackin!
Thanks for this intriguing Background Information of Team Xecutor.

These guys helped built the modding scene trust me. They are well known to modders
I'm not discrediting the team working on it. I'm as hyped as everyone else but a guy registering today telling you of honey rivers and what not just rubs me the wrong way.

As an Xbox 360 Jtag owner I can say that if they make something similar for the Switch it is going to be the best thing ever. These guys knows what they're doing.

I actually appreciate him coming here. Maybe he can keep us updated with the development. Bro, no one is forcing you to buy anything. If you got rub the wrong way you can avoid coming to this thread then.

Hope it goes more like xbox original with full hardware access and XBMC.

Custom Dashboards like Avalaunch, Evolution X, Freestyle dash would be awesome.. we have really only seen it on Microsoft devices so far, hopefully Team X's can take the switch in that direction with cfw's, or point more devs in the direction to create their own cfw's.. With them being in this, it will also bring a lot more devs to the table.. No other scene was greater than the original xbox (except maybe PSP) in my opinion

The problem with temp is the target audience is quite young, immature and naive for quite a lot (except the long term experienced members) and don't know anything else other than a NDS and upwards. I have been around for long time to know TX are not some wannabe team and have used their products from the start years ago. I'm glad these are looking into the Switch hardware and will gladly use whatever they release.

Im pretty sure c4eva didn't have anything to do with xecuter in the beginning. Most of the DVD drive firmware work was done on the original Xbox and not released until after the 360 launched as it wasn't required. Him and Xecuter teamed up later.

I'm stretching my memory now but wasn't the Enigmah-x basically 'borrowed code' ? Don't get me wrong everything they've done since then has been good and works as intended(and I could be wrong there).

But there have also been projects they've announced that have never seen the light of day.

I could go into a lot more scene detail around the FW flashing/RGH and the group wars.

For me having seen they're projects over the last 20 years I think we are all good to update away, I held off on Odyssey, now that'll hopefully get me through to a release.

I'd wager money it will be HW based. You're talking about a business that spends a LOT of money on R & D for these things. It ain't coming for free.


I own TX products for OG XBOX and 360, never let me down. wasnt aware of any "group wars" regarding the RGH.... Know anywhere i can read about it??

I’m confused about why I’m even seeing this thread right now. I wasn’t doing a search, and unless I’m still sleeping... the last post was 9 months ago. :unsure:

But here is where the confusion lies: more than one person from the Gateway team is now part of Xecutor and doing the Switch stuff. So what’s the history there? Did people break off from team Xecutor to do Gateway? Why? If not, then Xecutor is NOT the same team of people from the 90’s.

SX OS is undeniably coded by the Gateway folk. The same people who just gave up on the 3DS and left them hanging. No more updates, and no support for the latest firmware. Not even a release of the source code so we can update it ourselves (and they will obviously not be making anymore money on that product... so why not?)

I use SX OS myself, but as for all the naysayers and doubters... It is 100% JUSTIFIED. I just wish they wouldn’t be such vocal, obnoxious little twits...
