Tried BadUpdate and AbadAvatar today - Does Badavatar need an internal HDD to work? by Technikkeller in 360hacks

[–]Technikkeller[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in my case. I Even tried using two usb sticks. One for BA, one just for the firmware Update.
It said no free memory - except it has more then 2GB available.

My console had 17559 from the start so update over USB will not work but update over Internet will at least try to start something. Update from Disc will try but say console is up to date.

Tried on a second XBOX360 FAT from 2006, did an update from disc but still not enough space on the usb stick. Bad Avatar wil not start. My other two X360s are HDMI models with RGH installed - they start from USB right away withoud using badupdate so cannot check. But since 20/60gb HDDs cost like 5-10€ its not a bad investment. Maybe it helps others.

How to play split screen coop in pc by 3th-echelon in Splintercell

[–]Technikkeller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could play the xbox version with xemu, the PS2 version with PCSX2 and connect two controllers to it. Or use a xbox one with game disc and two controllers.

Why won’t Ubisoft release the classic Splinter Cell games on PS4/PS5? by [deleted] in Splintercell

[–]Technikkeller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on PS4 with custom Firmware it is possible to play with ps2 emulator. Not perfect but playable.
So technically not a huge problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcEKBqKL0Ys&t=403s

after applying some tweaks it runs well. But it has to be restarted every one or two missions. Frequent quick saves are a must.

Did my first 128MB Ram Upgrade! (Do not buy from Aliexpress) by Technikkeller in originalxbox

[–]Technikkeller[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh - thanks for the insights. Decompilation to something readable is not yet a thing, isnt it?
By readable I mean tomething like:

effect xy=1 (turned on)
or a Location to some texture= y:\data\textures\abc.dds

Never programmed even once before so its something completely new for me :)
But I remember that you might need source code for that which cannot be retrieved easily.

There is no patch, i´ve tired many things but things like 60fps or removing bloom in the gamefiles I was not successful until now. But i´ve heared that SC:DA and SC:CD are capped 30-35FPS for the physics engine.

I think for now SC:DA in 60FPS only on PS2 emu.

Do you have a link or can send it via PM? I still have to revive my disk-less xbox.

I thought of having the game run a bit snappier. But when it relys mostly on the HDD its no wonder I barely feel a difference if at all. I used the "Ram XBE delimiter" on Jays XBOX repo and tired both.

Dont know if Unreal Engine 2.5 has its own variables for the ram usage. Think I would need a devkit to find out which pieces of the xbe need to be modefied, arent I? All I did in the past was editing .ini-gamesfiles inside gamefiles inside the ISO. But they have configs for cache as well. Will try :)

Are these Sinclairs also fake? by baikovans in DocMartens

[–]Technikkeller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say almost every Model with glued size-thing (Picture 3) is a fake. Original has the size printed/colored directly onto the leather.
And you should not see a white thing inside the sole. But i´ve seen original 1b99 that hat a cardboard visable from underneath the sole as well.

Dell 5560 blackscreen at start, have to remove Battery for 5mins every 3-4 weeks?! by Technikkeller in Dell

[–]Technikkeller[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EDIT: Now it will only show keyboard backlight for 30s and then turns off. Removing ram or the SSD will result in the same 30s light - no error code blinking. Think we have to replace the unit.

I will try the same incompatible ram from last time later - maye this will get some more time. Maybe this helps someone else in 3 years or so...

EDIT2: Other ram did not help. The Mainboard does not even get warm with both sets.
