Are you wanting to disable FSD being the default dashboard?

What dashboard are you using?

Upgrade to the digital word and enjoy HD.

If your going to use SD just use the xbox dashboard to load your games.

Is your RGH COD set to retail or dev.

Get your retail, install to HDD (use nxe2god to convert it to GoD) then try that.

Greetings, this is my map progress so far. What I'm about to show is not everything in my map, just a few things I've put together.

Before we start, I play survival, I don't play nor have I ever loaded creative, I think creative is too boring. Survival is more rewarding.

Game Mods have been used.

If the images are not loading, my server could be down. Check back later.

So here we are...

When you enter my world, you HAVE to pass "The Rules" hallway.

You must then "Agree" or "Disagree", your choosing.

Disagree may not be a pretty picture.

Agree will be a pretty picture, nice cosy room, cake, open fire.

The Spawn Area

Anybody see the bad dog?

My Minecraft Farming Facilities.

Before Pressing the Harvest Leaver

After...

Pumpkins and Melons Farming

Choose which you want to harvest...

A block will rise for 1 second to lift Pumpkins or Melons and break them, Steams remain to grow more.

Mushroom Farming (I built this under the Wheat farm)...

Lets open the shutters...

Can't see, no problem, we'll turn on some lights....

Sugar Cane Farm...

Press the Harvest Button

Press the Collect Button (Piston will rise to lift sugar canes)

The farm breaks off the top 2 sugar canes and leaves the bottom, this is so the sugar cane grows again... usualy get 50-60 sugar canes out of about 68 (Not bad).

Chicken Farming for Eggs

(something is wrong, chickens are suppose to be on the top water flows but can't see, I can hear them tho)

When chicken pops egg, it falls down the water flow to the collection point. Sugar canes and flowers are for display purposes only (make the place look nice)

Future Farming Facility

Some of the pistons/redstone in the farming facility (These are the lights for the mushroom breeding room)

Farm Facilities at night time

Area 51, I mean Area Dave... Secret Research Facility

This is where I do testing. Out of sight, out of mind.

Just a green wall with a random button, nothing to see?

or is there...

Now we have a crafting table, press the button again and it hides. All controlled by redstone.

Lift Prototype for Hotel Dave

More hidden facilities...

MINECRAFT HEROBRINE... IS REAL

Caged Hens...

Dave's Ship

Before Ice Age...

After Ice Age

Can't have a boat without its treasure... Diamonds and Gold...

View from the top

Just got to...

Bridge Dave

Before Ice Age...

After Ice Age...

Bonfire..

Before you get all, I'm racist, my dutch friend killed me in my world when I was idle for like 20 hours LOL... this was my revenge

(just over 2500 wooden planks would you believe, i filled the inside and it looks small on this picture...)

Tesco...

Blacksmith

Enchantment and Brewing Store...

Trainstation, used to take up more room but I compacted it down to make room for the tesco store...

Euro tunnel, I mean, Euro Dave...

DO NOT LITTER ON MY WORLD.. WASTE MANAGEMENT IS PROVIDED

Railway to the Secure Location (Achievement Facility)

Hotel Dave...

This is still a massive work in progress (6th Jan 2013)

Scaffolding, Sand Held together by ladders and torches, torches and ladders held together by sand... Break the bottom block and it all falls. the Half Blocks you see will break up the sand when it lands.

break the bottom block...

Result, easy clean up

Hotel Dave at night time (this is still a massive work in progress...)

The Nether, my portal network, easy transportation across the upper world

Spawn Area (Anyone see the naughty dog)

More redstone work (this is at the start when you press agree/disagree)

My daughter Chloe

You guys are welcome to check out my world, my GT: Irish Dave

Please send me a pre-message when you add me, stating x360a.

Thank you

In my map, i decided to make a secure location. An achievement facility under a mountain in my map, only 1 way in, 1 way out. I don't care for them but some do and I was bored

The facility has all 20 minecraft achievements and is achievement 21 ready (Kill a Skeleton from 50m),

Using this facility will get you all 20 achievements in 5 minutes

(if wolf breeding is still not allowed you'll need to go out and find wolves)

So this is what I made...

You have to travel by rail to get here, the track is just over 500m long

Entrance to the Secure Location for Achievements, the stone door will automatically open when you approach it via minecart.

Achievements 1 to 15. Some you should have, each sign and chest is straight forward, what you need and what to do.

Achievements 15-20

Activate the Nether, when pigs fly, kill a monster, kill a cow to harvest leather, tame 5 wolves.

When Pigs Fly Achievement. Force it into the hole, the pig will die, but you'll live and there is ladders to climb back out.

Got lucky with this one, the spot I picked to build this secure location, I found a mob spawner nearby. Its now part of the Secure Location.

The mob spawner (Zombie)

Here is my spawn area.

You're welcome to send me a message on XBOX Live to join my game, get what achievements you need and have a look around. I have made some great stuff.

Holding RB when your controller syncs up to the console on boot will bypass your default(F3) and boot into your regular MS Dashboard

I didn't know that, thanks

Learning something new everyday

Hi, thx to answer irishdave

yeap by NXE i meant METRO off course. On FSD everything 's roll games loading, etc..except KINECT's movement recognition !

where I feel surprise is that nobody tried KINECT on FSD3 ?

Most like myself disconnect kinect unless we're going to use it to play kinect games LOL. Kinect just slows the console down.

Fair play to you for trying

It is a new feature added to FSD and of course, new means bugs, maybe it'll be fixed in the next FSD update

Never had it myself, when I first installed, and I've 100s of DLC. We'll see if any admins come along and say. Just weird.

They should add a DLC section, nice to keep track of all your DLC

DLC shouldn't be loading, in any section. Not that I know off anyway.

if you have homebrew stuff, you should really keep it in a homebrew folder away from the "content" folder.

Ie. HDD1/My Stuff/Homebrew

and have the scan settings scan for homebrew games in there instead of content.

Sounds like your F3 skin was not an F3 skin. I tried this too a while back, I was able to load xexmenu and delete the skin then F3 detected it was gone and reverted to the default.

Try the method jbp210 gave you, if you don't have xexmenu to load under the X command in your launch.ini file get back and tell me and I'll try assist you further.

When F3 boot screen shows, quickly press the dashboard button and goto the system video player to quickly exit to to the NXE/metro dashboard before the crash happens, then load xexmenu from the games library and delete the skin. Thats if the X Command doesn't work for you. Good Luck

Sounds like a bug my friend.

Tho, what is it your doing wrong.

On NXE its fine, well METRO dash I should say.

But what happens on FSD. When you goto the game, and load it.. whats happening?

my username has no numbers in it.

Some people should just stay away from FSD. This is big boy stuff.

Your lucky you sorted it, the cheek from you I wouldn't have bothered my a_se wasting time trying to help.

All support on this site is from users free time, the ones who made FSD is of their free time too, we who be on this site day to day to help people are not like customer support where we have to help you... we can say no

Next time you need help, you should consider how you ask your questions if you want a response.

Does it even come to mind that some parts of the site may be under maintenance or just not functioning properly for a few moments?

LMFAO

To join a game, your connection needs to be at LEAST 2048kbps (2mbit) downstream, upstream should be at LEAST 256kbs (0.25mb), to host a game of about 8 players, you'd need at least 10,240kbps downsteam (10mbit) and a good 1024kbps upsteam (1mb).

Now, if you're in the UK or Ireland, you should know that the telephone regulators have capped dial up speeds from 56kbps to 26kbps (26kbps up and 26kbps down)

Default Skin?

Should be ok, yeah you need to change the ini file, so it knows where to find FSD.

You can just copy it over and leave the backup on the HDD/Intmu incase it doesn't work out.

I think you'll need to move the whole FSD folder to where you want all that stored.

TU's are pretty standard, HDD1/Cache

maybe you and F3 are just not meant to be...

Have you tried a different coverflow maybe, change it to nxe classic?

Link your console to jqe360.com

Download the cover you prefer from this website by clicking download (downloads to your xbox)

http://covers.jqe360...pe=XBLA&page=28

no if I play from f3 freezes if I play from official dashboard it works fine

Sorry, I've no idea. An admin should be around later to check this, lets see what they say. I've never experience this and can't guess any further what it could be.

What are you doing when it freezes?

Any ideas mate.

So without the USB HD plugged in

Games on your internal hard drive load fine from Official Dash, but freeze/crash on F3?

Your not doing anything differently?

What FSD are you using

FSD2.2 or F3?

This is starting to sound like a hardware problem.

Have you tried loading a game from the official dashboard to see if that works?

Have you tried reinstallind FSD?

I have the same router with fw 1.34 and I had to forward the ports to the Xbox IP. The problem was that the Xbox can change IP addresses so you will have to go into settings(setup>network settings) and add your 360's MAC and what IP you want to designate as static to the "add DHCP reservation" list. Once you have properly forwarded the ports, both UDP and TCP, it should pass the tests.

Good post.

Thats what I have on my router too, completely forgot to mention that LOL

USB Hard Drives are useless, why people use them is beyond me. The USB Board inside them always die out.

Could be a sign that your hard drive is becoming faulty, your hard drive will be fine if you removed it and put it inside a PC or directly inside a xbox, however do you get the same problem when you plug it into your PC. Does the PC give you any issues/errors.

Try a different usb on the xbox, (only use the back ones for this)

Does FSD work fine without the Hard Drive connected.

Need a bit more info

Have you FSD installed on a USB, Internal Memory, Hard Drive

How many games have you on it, have you 100s of games trying to download covers?

What size is your hard drive and/or what your running FSD off?
