bump bump..

I'm having the same problem.

I downloaded the binary, transferred the folder to my Xbox, executed the MAMEoX.xbe which created a few new folders.

Now when i run default.xbe it doesn't do anything besides bringing me back to the EvoX dash.

Can anyone please give me some advice?

This is what i've ste in the MAMEoX.ini file from the TDATA folder:
I've changed every reference to d:\ with e:\EMU\MAMEoX\

Still something wrong?

This is what i've ste in the MAMEoX.ini file from the TDATA folder:
I've changed every reference to d:\ with e:\EMU\MAMEoX\

There is no need to change any of the references to "d:". "D:" is a realtive path and is defined as the directory from which the "default.xbe" was launched.

For example, I noticed you changed the ROM path to "e:\EMU\MAMEoX\roms". There is no need to do that.

Since I assume that the default.xbe file is located here:
e:\EMU\MAMEoX\default.xbe

Then this:
e:\EMU\MAMEoX\roms

Is equal to this:
d:\roms

Because the default.xbe file was launched from "e:\EMU\MAMEoX\". You only need to change the "d:" if you are placing the ROMS somewhere outside the MAMEoX install directory. This goes for all other references to D: too.

So just get a fresh copy of the emulator and don't change any of the "d:" references. Also, go delete the MAMEoX save out of the Memory manager in the MS Dash (standard XBox dashboard) before starting the new copy of the emulator just to make sure the old save doesn't mess up the new install.

Ah, thanks, i thought i needed to change the paths.

But I still don't have a solution to my problem

Can't read the installation info on the emu's homepage either, because the site appears to be down at the moment.

Maybe someone can direct me to some kind of tutorial on how to correctly install it?

[Thraxen]

Have you tried launching the emulator from another dashboard (XBMC, UnleashX, Avalaunch)? Perhpas the issue is related to EvoX specifically.

Also, can you provide us with a bit more information... what type of mod and what BIOS are you using? Which version of MAMEoX is this?

How did you upload the program?

I had problems using the Xenium Samba server.
This was bugging me for days.

Do you have any apps that do work?
How did you get them onto the XB?
