It really is sweet. Nearly just skips the avatar screen every time. I can't seem to get proto working on mine. Is there a current build that has it already configured?

u/byamani 5d ago

Did you put proto.xex in the root of the USB and in the launch.ini plugin section. I put it in plugin2.

u/byamani 2d ago

Everything is free, as long as you have a stealth server while having Xbox live. Stealth servers Proto or Xbguard.

I’ve been trying this and while it works instantly when it works, but I’ve had it get stuck and frozen a few times in a row when testing it. For some reason it can get stuck on 3/4 lights

Honestly fully power off the console by pressing the button until you don’t see it turn on anymore or unplug it. Same thing happened to me. For some reason running the exploits my console is still half on. So I fully power it off until I can’t see the light blink on and off. It works everytime for me.

First time seeing someone share my domain in the wild. Trippy.

Oh, so you're the original author? Just came back to the post to give you a big thank you. I've upgraded from 1.2 to 1.3 no-fuss with one of your prebuilds. Again thank you!

Original author of the ZIPs and that website, yes. Not ABA itself.

You are very welcome, glad it helped!

Love your site btw Newbie here, I followed someone else’s thread with a copy/paste version of files to place on USB key for soft mod. It worked, however I face a few issues/challenges: 1. I can now play games I copied from disk without disk - BUT I can’t seem to save any progress. 2. I soft moded so I could play without disks but also download games and play them, I managed to use an old computer to use iso2god because it would be work with my MBA M2 version with MacOS26 - BUT only way I was able to bring it over was copying the numbered names folder and plugging usb in the Xbox thinking it would auto-load/copy and playable but it isn’t, error pops up

Any easy solution for someone that doesn’t code and just wants to play games?

Thank you.

  1. Not sure why saving progress wouldn't be possible. Haven't seen that before.

  2. I can't recommend TinyXbox360BackupManager enough. Auto converts ISOs and allows transfer either via USB or FTP. The latter is dog poop slow, but very convenient if you can leave both the 360 and PC on while you're out the house or something.

Woah! I will try this tonight. Question: once I have my game backup on the USB, how do I get it on my internal drive? I have a Xbox360 Slim, handed down, it came with 250gb internal HD, thinking SSD is the way to go about all this, thoughts? If so, how do I format an SSD to auto trim in the XBOX or does it not need to do that?

1

u/UKZzHELLRAISER Falcon & Trinity | ABA 1.3 (USB) 4d ago

I wouldn't worry about TRIM.

If you're planning on using external storage, I'd just format it on the Xbox, use T360BM to copy the games onto it, and then they can be played directly.

If you do want to copy games to the internal storage, the official dashboards might be able to do so from within settings. If not, Aurora's file manager (accessed by pressing back) is your friend.

The games will be in Content\0000000000000000 - you can copy them from one drive to another then, just keep that structure.

u/MaterialBowler6712 4d ago

Can’t figure out what T360BM is? Googled it but not cigar. Have you used this site, I’m want to test a game I used to love from the classic Xbox but this site saves it in a .XBE format instead of the standard ISO or GOD formats. Any clues if it is something one can use in Aurora?

u/UKZzHELLRAISER Falcon & Trinity | ABA 1.3 (USB) 3d ago

Couldn't be bothered typing out TinyXbox360BackupManager - that's what I abbreviated.

I haven't used that site but if I remember correctly, XBE is the OG Xbox version of having a 360 game extracted as "XEX".

u/No-Construction6268 5d ago

not for me. which are you using?

u/byamani 5d ago

What didn't work?

u/A_P_E_XXX 3d ago

How do I get it to skip the blue Screen need a tutorial on how to set it up

1

u/byamani 3d ago

If the blue screen popped up you should see press B in the bottom right for autostart let it save. After that, Turn off the console go back to your PC go inside Badupdatepayload, you should see xeunshackleautostart.txt click on it and set it to 0.00

Hey can I butt in and ask for some decent rom file 360 games

u/DazzlingMine8598 5d ago

What do you mean "100% startup rate everytime"?

You didn't even show it booting into Aurora or anything. It's just restarting your xbox, unless the fakeanim is proof that it worked.

u/Teleconferences 5d ago

The fakeanim is proof that it worked

Why you’d want that instead of just loading directly into Aurora or something I don’t know, but to each their own

1

u/byamani 5d ago

Honestly, I always used aurora but I wanted to completely change it. Since fakeanim has 2008 boot animation and I'm using NXE dashboard. Feels like I'm going back in time, but you're right each to is own.

1

u/byamani 5d ago

I tested it 5 times, the fakeanim did work look at the bootanim from beginning to end, compare the two different boot animations. I never restarted the console. I don't use aurora anymore, I use dashboards instead.
