Hello,

I just purchased an Xbox 360E 4GB Corona v6 with a Toshiba Nand and was wondering what glitch chip to use. I know I'd need the Postfix adapter v2 and Corona 4GB Nand R/W kit v4. Normally I'd go for CR4 XL, but shipping fees to Canada (from US) are more than the board itself.

Can I go with any of the following glitch chips: CR3 Lite v3 OR DGX Stone v1.1/v1.2 OR X360Run v1.1 OR X360Ace v1/v2? They are readily available from chinese websites like aliexpress. I did read that DGX Stone comes pre-programmed and I believe the same goes for X360Run and X360Ace.

What else would I need? JR-Programmer? Double shielded PRO CPU RST cable for SLIM?

Thank you in advance!

PS: I'm on dash 16547 and have a Lite-On DG-16D5S DVD drive.

Go for the CR3 Lite.
Don't go for cheap copies, ever.

You should be good to go, the double shielded cable is only for when yer 360 has trouble booting.

Thank your both for your prompt help and replies. Is CR3 Lite line not discontinued, where would I buy one other than chinese websites? Can I trust these guys?

From what I understand CR3 Lite would need to be programmed, would I require an additional programmer (like JR-Programmer) and any other QSB's?

Kind regards.

PS: I was under impression that X360 Ace, X360 Run, DGX Stone were evolutions over TX Slim Proto and CR3 Lite. Excuse my ignorance (as I'm new to this), are these cheap copies not going to deliver consistent results? I'm not really looking for the best boot times, 30 to 60 seconds would be fine to me.

No prob~
I'd say go to a trusted TX reseller.
They list it on their website.

Humm, CR3 has switches iirc.
I'm not entirely sure anymore but I think it's a matter of flicking a few DIP switches on the board.

No.
Do NOT get those.
Say no to cheap copies.
It's the same with people that get R4 clones.
Their shite, don't work half of the time and they keep on buying the same bloody R4 clones.
I can't decide for you as it's your money but I wouldn't do it.

Just spend a little more on hardware cause everybody knows you're already getting the games for free.
Quality hardware continues to work and doesn't fuck up.

    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s

  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
