FreeStyle 2.0 Current Status and Release Information Posted by XanTium | April 20 10:37 EST | News Category: Xbox360

From Helldoc's Blog: [QUOTE] You guys keep asking about an eta : we have no ETA and probably wont have. Working on FSD is a hobby for all the team, so we never know much time we can put on it. Current Status : * Its pretty hard to give an overall status... Media player is still not in there (JQE is working on this, but still not committed the code) * Recent games list still need to be totally redone. Some skin work need to be done to have a dynamic number of tabs. We still need to experiment and try to figure out how to get stock dash recently played list. If we cant do easily we'll probably just add a last time played datetime to each game and use this. * Favorites : Still need to be 100% rewritten. * Game type switching : Still need to be 100% rewritten * Copy DVD : Still need to adapt FSD 1.XX code and properly clean. Currently not working. * File Manager : Working but we want to change the way it behave (should be back to drive list instead of having to use shoulder button to switch drive) * Nand flasher : working great * About : Still need some work but will be quick. * Game List : Games are listed but not sorted. Everything still need to be plugged in (boxart, game description, preview). I think game renaming feature broke in some previous rev, will need to fix it. * Built-In Indexer : Need to add screenshots and preview movie with proper settings. * HTTP : Still having some freeze issue and need to tweakt it a bit, otherwise its working great. Need to add priorites to the download queue. * XeX extraction : Working great. * Skin Edit Mode : Working great. * Skin customisation : Working great. * RSS Reader : Still need some work. * Internal XML Reader : We're looking to change it to a SAX implementation, still need to be done. * Autoupdater : First tests are working great but still need some intensive testing. * Multilanguage : No work has been done on this yet. Theres still lots of "Surprise" we have to experiment with and see what can be done than may imply changes in previous listed stuff.

Just had my machine xbrebooted the other day.

I'm mega happy about this The scene's really coming to life now. Feels like the PSP back in the day.

Thankyou very much to a certain dude from Wishaw here who did all the dirty work to allow me homebrew awesomeness

Great work guys, keep it up! Saw the vid on the FSD blog, great music choice Dash itself looks fantastic, really professionally done, lots of options to play with.

WOW this seems like an incredible update!

Very ambitious to bring all these new features in one update

Looking fantastic, cant wait for the release

[brandogg]

What a monumental improvement, it's like a whole new dashboard. Great work guys.

[clouduz]

wow 2.0 seems like a great release...love the skinning feature

[BrooksyX]

This really is looking great so far. Me, like everyone else is just dying for the newest release! 1.2 just seems so lame compared to all these screens and details that have been posted.

[nafeasonto]

This is going to be so nice!!!!!!

[xBang360x]

Very Nice Thanks for your work on this...

Seems you guys are trying to do too much at once...Figured main features would be priority then all the other goodies would come later...

Media player is still not in there -Dont really need now-How ever a very nice feature

RSS Reader -nice but not really needed right away

Internal XML Reader -Not needed right away.

.......

A solid stable dash with main features Temps ,Favorites,Name changing etc all stable would be nice .Then start the little things...


This is just "MY OPINION" And does not mean shit as all I have done to give back is preview .Wmv's..

I just think the project is getting to big too fast and when that happens people start to get tired of working on it and or lose interest..


Hope this dash does turn out to be the main alt.dash ....

Thanks again for putting your own time in on this project....

http://www.teamfsd.com/ | http://www.teamfsd.com/svnlog/ | FreestyleDash 1.20 : http://www.sendspace.com/file/cak89w | 2.0 ETA next Decebuary

Cant wait for next Decebuary!! My favorite month next to Neverary.
jokes. The dash is looking good. We should have some nice skins to hold every one over until 2.0's release.
MaesterRowen is kicking major but on his NXE upgrade. Cant call it a port because NXE sucks in comparison.
Helldoc is doing a great job of keeping everyone updated more then once a week. If you're interested in the dash it's not a bad idea to bookmark the links.

Awesome can't wait

First of all, the dashboard video on the website looks awesome team fsd, great job!! i think autoupdater, builtin indexer and flash tool are some of the features i'll value the most.

HellDoc was talking about in his blog, regarding autoupdater:

My goal is to have 2 "update channels" 1 for svn and one for final.

this would be a great plus. we could increase the number of people testing out fsd and reporting bugs. maybe have them both installed? or one in hdd, other in usb flash?

Great work guys!

btw, what exactly is the media player function?
Does it use the natives Dash mediaplayer with its limitations or is it a homebrew coded player (like a mplayer port) that will support many different codecs and containers?
