[ukvac] OT: Xbox mame
I know this has been covered before but I cant seem to find it in the
archive for some reason? Anyway - I finally got an XBox. How do I get
mame for it and onto it? Does it need to be modded? I was reading
that you need to have the oficial SDK to compile it, or are there
binaries floating around?

Any help would be appreciated as I know some of you guys have done
this already.

Ta!

Take the advice on the page of going to #xbins on efnet. If the page hasn't
been updated since 28th October 2003 then that's a hell of a lot of updates
that will have been missed...

As for the modding, i beleive it IS possible to get stuff on there without
modding it now, but rather you than me and good luck and all that! I think
there's a MUCH higher chance of rendering the xbox useless is you do it
without a mod chip.

Also, you're going to want to rip out the 10GB hard disk and put something
usefull in there like a 120GB one anyway if you want to do much with your
emulators. Mame with all the roms will take up all of that disk alone.

:O)

Just be very careful about replacing the hard drive with a new one. Not all
are lockable, meaning that you can't get on live (if you want to that is).

One of my mates has this problem.

Re: [ukvac] OT: Xbox mame
Again thanks for the advice - appreciated.

How tricky is the mod installation, and as there seem to be a lareg amount of chiops outthere, which are recommended (preferably the easiest!). Or is theer a modding service I could use thats relaible?


I probably only want the "smaller" roms in the box for now at least so I'll do the HD upgrade at a later date I think.
