This version of snes9x add's sound and wireless controller support! Thanks to snes9x-gx and tmbinc for releasing his version of the source. The program looks for a static filename - SNES9X.SMC Only currently running on the xenon xell hack. Support for other chipsets are in the works! Official Site: n/a (anonomous) Download: here News-Source: xbins.org |
Full Version: Snes9x Gx Xenon Beta

Wow, the start of more good things to come I hope 
QUOTE FROM tmbinc
libxenon now got support for making a cpu thread run a function. It's a bit rudimentary, but especially for emulators and games this approach should be "good enough".
Also I've added support to switch cpu frequency. That means that we can use all 6 threads at 3.2ghz now. The code is rather complex, and might not work perfectly, but results have been pretty nice here (finally no frame drops in snes9x, even with sound).
Simply call "xenon_make_it_faster(XENON_SPEED_FULL);" and it will switch to full speed.
Excellent!

fantastic progress. Now, there is sound. I could play all my favorite Super nintendo games now. I can't wait.
Nice work. 
Looking forward to seeing a youtube clip with audio.

Just needs more support for usb sticks now, All 11 of them in my house dont work and they are all different brands and sizes ranging from 128mb - 8 gb.
Awsome. Not so awsome I updated the day before the warning was given not to update. Oh well. Maybe in the future they'll work something out for the many people that updated like I did.
Really awsome though about the snes emulator. Can't believe this came about so quick! Like 2 weeks ago it was no sound and no wireless support! Whoever does this is amazing!

Try different formatting, I know my kingston 2G datatraveler when formatted with windows will not show up in normal 360 dash (or for that matter on anything that isn't windows including xbmc, ps2sms, samsung tv usb input etc), but given the right format params under linux there are no problems whatsoever.
tried, xfat/fat16/fat32/ntfs, bootable/nonbootable on all of them. Same error in xell (transfer error)
is anyone else getting a clicking noise when running this?? I know it's all new but damn is it annoying ..
wireless works 360 doesn't indicate a controller attached and controller just blinks like it's not connected but it is and works fine.

Sound! Nice! Thx a lot!
You can see the small sound driver source with this :
git clone git://free60.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/free60/free60

theevilhacker63: yes there is an annoying clicking, however apart from that I find the sound to be perfect.

you can use USB HDD too
thats what i had to resort too this is the start of something good i feel
This is seriously becoming a very interesting topic indeed.
I've resisted all urges so far to do anything to my beloved 360, unlike my xbox 1 which was modded to buggery.
Just want to say many thanks for all the hard work that you guys are putting into free60 and associated apps, and like many others, am waiting with baited breath for that first glimpse of something that resembles xbmc.
kudos +billions

thank god it's just not me with the damn clicking noise.. and yes besides the clicking audio is just fine.
for a second I almost flashed back to a stock dash and kernel just to see if my box was messed up.

The addition of sound and wireless support is great news, I'll be checking this out later . I've been really enjoying messing around with the new 360 hacks. So far I've changed my region code/DVD key and messed around with Linux and the Snes emu. I hope we see a lot more stuff like this in the coming months .

This has been a long time coming and I tend not to post since xbox1 emulation but I will get around to trying this. Very good work to the author. much appreciated .

Man, it is so great to see updates like this every couple days. Big props to the guys who are making homebrew on the 360 finally happen.
My 360 has been offline to prevent the update since I heard about these developments. Like several others, I haven't posted here in years, but this has me paying attention to the "scene" again. I am eagerly awaiting the day I can finally retire my original Xbox as my primary media center and start playing HD h.264 video under XBMC on my 360. Keep up the good work guys!

Wow. Great work !
Not trying to piss anyone off, but this JTAG hack or whatever it is called and what relates to it is probably the only interesting thing I've seen in years. I find myself checking xbox-scene several times a day now, like in the good old days with the original Xbox. Before this hack it was all about: "Microsoft says this and that bullshit, Xbox360 outsells ps3 on X market and so on and so forth".
But NOW... Yippie!!
But NOW... Yippie!!
nice to see this type of development. i wonder if this in in HV mode or not. i am patiently waiting for unsigned xexs' then we can remove those awful ping limiters and use our consoles on XBC or kai . i cant wait to get back on xbc live is fun, but xbc was great for custom and modded game types.

Yeah... common sense would tell you that if there is no hacking news to speak of, they have to fill th efront page with related news right??
So, since this was just discovered a month ago, of course we will be seeing it more often.
Ill tell you what, to find out that htey have full sound and wireless support makes me giddy. This is a start to an awesome homebrew scene with less idiots then Xbox 1 because it will take more know how to pyll this off.
And did I see USB HDD support in there also? is there a limit?
If not, Im going to be one happy f**ker when I can move all emulators from my Xbox 1 to a USB drive
Thanks to all envolved.
The dvd drive firmware was a good start, but I want this more.
The 360, in theory (memory permitting) should be able to get emulation up to ps2/dreamcast if implemented right.
All we need now is full gpu control and possibly nand acsees through other means.
Imagine being able to boot different kernals/dashes with a USB thumb drive like PS3 does with OS's

I used Snes9x GX, i.e. the Wii/Gamecube-Port, as a base. I didn't use much of the GC-specific code, but it gave me a good idea of what functions I have to implement. I don't yet have coded a UI, but it uses the GPU for scaling, USB for input (wired controller only so far), and runs on the bare metal (i.e. no linux, no hypervisor). CPU is still running at quarter speed, but there are no dropped frames.
I haven't updated my 360 or gone online with it since August 10th. Hopefully they will be able to create a package for people that are on kernels under the latest one (besides the two that work now).
I'm so excited for all of this development and can't wait until we have taken the 360 over like we did with the original Xbox.
There are so many Japanese 360 games I want to play on an NTSC-U 360.

I understand what I'm about to write has nothing to do with the thread in question, but I'm extremely interested in trying this out, but I'm totaly clueless on how to get it going on my xenon xbox 360, here is why.
in January 09, I had my 360 hard modded with the infectus chip, along with the daugherboard that helps with the degrading. 2 problems have happend at that time. 1st, I flashed the NAND with i believe 1888, and have the RROD. 2nd, team infectus never bothered to change their newer flashmod programs to work along with the degrader, so I was unable to downgrade my 360. My PC crashed not long after that flash, and I lost my original NAND.
So, I have a xenon 360, that gives a RROD, but it has a working infectus hard modded to it.
So my question is, am I able to still use my xenon 360 with this hack?

If it won't boot, you can't use it. RROD = DEAD, fix it or get another.
Got it working, luckily I had a compatible USB stick (exactly the same as this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/USB-Memory-SD-MMc-ca...d=p3286.c0.m14)
Love it apart from the annoying click click, great work.

If the RRoD was a result of the bad flash then yes - you can reflash the NAND with the xenon-xell.bin file on xbins. You won't ever be able to use it as a retail 360 again but I doubt you're that bothered

I had a feeling I would still be able to use it. Cause I remember the original video of linux botting off of the cygnos chip. Now, do I need to solder resistors to my 360? I've been reading many different posts on this and I'd like to get down exactly what I need. and need to do, to perform this. Many thanks
I just want to ask a hypothetical question about the free60 hack and Xell.
At some point if there is a hacked M$ kernel so you can play games and run homebrew, will you still need to flash the DVD drive or with the hack is flashing the DVD drive not necessary?

You donot need to have a flashed drive to run the hack or to run this homebrew
you all know where this is leading to: after a year or two we can see all the apps/emulators/DASHes and opportunities that we saw on original xbox. i just mean why to hurry when there is plenty of time and i CAN promise that day will come sooner or later, if not, call me idiot or whatever you want.

until then im going to twiddle my thumbs and sit back and enjoy the ride..

For programming, it's recommended to use the 5 x 100Ohm resistors between the parallel port and the JTAG points on the motherboard. To actually run the XeLL exploit, you MUST have the 3 x 330Ohm resistors connected. If you flash the XeLL exploit and don't have the three 330Ohm resistors connected, you'll get E79
That's just awesome! Sadly I already did that Xbox Live update...
Anyway, I'm interested in the source code, where can I find it?

It really doesnt matter what it is, XBOX, PSP, etc... Its always the same.

Programming? Could you please elaborate? It sounds like you are saying that you cannot use a Xell 360 for testing debug apps but only release builds will work on them.

By programming, I think he means "writing to the NAND" (just how if you were to desolder a TSOP and use a programmer to read/write to it)
I have a launch xbox 360 from 2005, it is in brand new condition and not ONE update has ever been done. What can I do to keep it at its virgin level and do these hacks, I read about removing the eFuse under the board? Does this still need to be done to make sure i keep it UNUPDATED?
