I have a new old stock rev 1.6, bought when Microsoft stopped the production (Far Cry pack). I have a soft modded rev 1.6 that is almost new, only powered 20 or 30 times. This is a King Kong pack bought at the same time as the previous one. Here in France they were sold for 50€.

In my living room I still have my 1st Xbox (cannot remember the rev) with a Xecuter modchip, I removed the capacitor and did some bridge due to brocken traces around the motherboard (Before doing this the Xbox would power it on on its own and I was not able to power it off via the power button).

Thank you.:)

It is unopened and it will stay like this sorry...

The king Kong pack has got a Philips, my 1st XBOX has got a Samsung that can read CDR.

You do not have to open it,my Friend.:)

About the Samsung Drive, I need to open it each year because the drive belt broke and I never found a replacement one. I tried to buy some from Internet but I always received some kind of elastic that are dry in less than 6 months.

By any chance, do you know a good shop to find a real drive belt ?

For Example:

Personal I have always used it from replacement Drives from broken XBoxes.Or the whole Drive.
A few Years ago I modded 2 LG-8164 Drives with the
TalisMoon Adapter

unfortunately,this is no longer available...
So I have always a working Drive for modded XBoxes if needed.
For Retail XBoxes I have still some working Philips Drives "in Stock".:)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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.
