Hacking Hardware "PeerPressure" (Xbox 360) softmod discussion

[SylverReZ]

A new Xbox 360 softmod called "PeerPressure" is currently in beta testing, and will released on October 9th. I recommend checking out Grimdoomer's video that goes into detail as to how it works. It revolves around a ROP chain when the southbridge retrieves the security sector from the HDD.

Poor winchester owners, no RGH for years and now no coldboot softmod. At least they still have badavatar.

Hopefully whatever the modification that lets you replace dvd drive with hdd can be ported across to rgh & jtag consoles when it comes out.

No DashLaunch plugin support fucking sucks, this whole softmod was the reason I bought a trinity to use this + ReLive to have essentially a blades console, now this?

Man, now I don't even fuckin want this softmod. I'll stick with BadAvatar 1.3.

That, and it steers away those who just want the most features out of their Xbox 360. I would honestly keep with ABadAvatar if I was you, and wait until there's an update that resolves those problems, but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Immediately lost my interest when he said he would disallow Xbox Live stealth plugins. Very passive-aggressively.

I don't cheat. I have to make unlicensed copies because my 360 purchases on my Microsoft account do not work properly, and my disc drive is broken. A stealth server is the only way I can play these games online. I also prefer playing them with a Dualshock 4.

I really do not like that Grim dismissed any valid use case for using a stealth service, as if he's my personal Xbox cop and it makes cheating any more difficult. A reverse engineer of all people should know how stupid this is.

I'll keep using BadUpdate 1.2 to NOT cheat. Thanks.

Hopefully others will adapt from his work to allow using that against his will.

Trinity is incredibly easy to RGH3. Learn to solder or find an already modded console.

Same I'll probably stay on 1.3 but if it's open source it will be probably have a patch support from a fork

Looking forward to the release! Too bad that we won't be able to make use of SSDs (yet), but I wonder what did he mean about replacing disc drive with secondary HDD which could be SSD? Will we lose the disc drive in favor of HDD? Custom 3d-printed mounting bracket?

 

[Vetus_Mundi]

I'm not worried about online multiplayer, (never used it) though no dashlaunch plugin support is sad.

I have one (Falcon v3) out of two consoles (the other being the E model) that I can softmod if I wish. And if he releases the source, extra features like dl plugin support will be added.

 

[johsam]

Aw poop. I was looking forward to this softmod for my corona. I have to stick with abadavatar or just give it a go and try RGH'ing the thing.

And well, that just happened. Recently, it has been brought to my attention that a leaked build of "PeerPressure" has been circulating around Xbox modding servers that re-allows DashLaunch and stealth servers (such as XBGuard). I'm not sure if I would be allowed to re-upload it here because it's originally a private build, and that it could break GBAtemp's rules, but you'll be able to find it on Discord.

 

[bonkmaykr]

Gah. Using Discord to distribute software is cancer. Nope.

Hopefully he won't cancel it because of this.

Hopefully he won't cancel it because of this.

Hopefully if he does someone else uses AI to recreate it. Someone less petty than him.

It's not like he can report it to Microsoft to get it patched. All he can do besides nothing is to cope and seethe.

It probably would. Temp unfortunately tends to side with less respectable people like Grim.

Is it possible that anyone could share the version with dashlaunch to me?

Sayonara, ABadAvatar! Hello, PeerPressure!

Personally, as someone who does like to actively engage with the some of the Xbox 360-related Discord communities, I find the discourse about no DashLaunch support to be becoming extremely nonsensical with users like this.

This guy literally went in multiple other servers just to vent his hatred for Ryan. For what its worth, after he literally got banned & clowned on by multiple other users, he did apologize about his behavior afterward.

It's very disrespectful that this guy would start a huge drama fest over a complete nothingburger. Ryan has worked hard on making this exploit happen, and for somebody to leak it out in the wild, this shows zero respect towards the developer.

Is it possible that anyone could share the version with dashlaunch to me?

Just wait until it comes out. How patient are you? It's just a week away.
