im having difficulties trying to get my screenshots to save in the right directory. I cant find any options anywhere inside the emulator or in the files. I take "title shot" or "preview shot" and they both end up in the screenshots directory, but It should go into the title/preview directory right? or do i have to manually move the files with file manager?

also should I have both mame .72 and fbanext, havent tried many games yet, but most of the games ive tried seem to work on fbanext or both. just wondering since they are both mame emulators right?

So ive had alot of trouble with all mame emulators on every system i put them on, easiest way is to find a source with roms included, so ive had fba working for a while but most games dont show up when added, screenshot/title/preview errors, so im using a fresh copy with roms and all of a sudden everything working right, even my neo roms showed up, still havent tried the cdz part but oh well. this emulator came with turbografx roms but theyre not showing up. hit n miss sometimes, more fiddeling to do.

but wow fbanext360 is so cool with the video preview (seen options in other emulators too) so that helps ppl like me who grew up in the late 90s and most of the arcade games were new or you had to go to a laundry mat to play the old shit haha

heres an update about the custom xbox game called wrestling legends, quoted from the developers blog. there are also tons of previews on the blog now.

hopefully the game gets released soon, its going to be so cool.

Great, my simple task cannot be solved in this excellent Aurora, but anyway it's a way better. Thank you.

okay so if your going to complain just use fsd. its possible to have both on your xbox at the same time, i just broswe over to fsd start it up and boom. now that i think of it i think i did have a problem connecting to ftp in aurora and had to use fsd to copy something.

anyways i did a quick google search for your problem and this was the first thing that popped up.

http://www.realmodscene.com/index.php?/topic/5234-connectx-and-aurora-how-to/

overall though, aurora is way better than fsd, im sure youll love it once you get it set up and customized. dont get me wrong fsd was great but aruroa is an upgrade not a competitor

Games are in god format. 

To copy them using ftp I need:

1. Turn on PC.

2. Copy files from router to PC.

3. Copy files from PC to Xbox via ftp.

Why I cannot simply copy files from router to Xbox directly using explorer? I could do it in Fsd without problems. I don't want to use PC at all!

makes sense. you should be able to view the "router hd" with the ftp program right. trust me I know the headaches but in the end its worth it. I spend hours doing little things every once in a while to make the 360 better. always updates etc

but if your actually installing the games from your network im not sure what you mean. what kind of games? if its 360, they need to be extracted first, or in god format and then you can simply move the game to your 360 using ftp, xbox 360 content manager or one of the other programs. I just use 360mpgui, extract the game directly onto my external hdd or usb then copy to internal or external hdd. or i use godspeed to transfer files using ftp. that program might make god format. havent messed with it much. i dont see any options for playing games stored on your "router hd", and not sure if it would play fast enough to stream like that.

That ftp server allows to connect to Xbox, not from Xbox, feel the difference.

I don't need to play games on shares, I want to copy (install) them from shares to Xbox.

oh wait your games are on another 360 hd? so you just want to copy from hd to hd, then use an ftp program...

godspeed or 360 content manager on pc, but you want to do this from the xbox360 right, i see now

in settings, under modules, u can find ftp server, im sure its possible to play games stored on your home network, not quite sure how though.

sometimes when im in file browser I see only 2 directories, usually when inserting a usb or something, it says xbox360 and network, but i dont know how to get there, its just a fluke when it happens

which games are your favorite to play? I like the kart racing games with pickups, looking for more.  I Like:

n64 - mario kart

psx - ctr crash team racing (not working on my 360)

xbox1 - crash nitro kart

I think I used to play one on the ps2 and it was sooo fun, cant remember if it was ctr or maybe a lego game

Hes bringing a good point, why the purple-white blender background was made anyways? 

Agreeed, I would like to change mine as well. This emulator has really turned out to be awesome finally.

Is there anyway to make this emu (the elf) show up in my cover flow in aurora

ive tested many of them on fsd3...

ADAM360
ATARI800XL
ATARI7800X
PCE... and more working

pretty nice hobby time waste ive never played them i just hadfun to test them

SAme here most systems before nintendo I never played until emulators. Id say maybe 10% of the xbox1 emus ive tried have worked. Ive really got into the arcade games since u can pop in coins instead of restarting. the kids love it. and once I have all my covers/artwork installed it makes it easy for them to find the games they want. Although they mostly play the 360 or psx

Just remeber to download this file guys

It's a fix for crash team racing that was broken on 2.1.0 version.

So I tried to use this xex today with 2.1.1 and it didnt load, so I guess it doesnt work.

Fbanext on 360 only plays mame.. dont confuse the different versions.. there are other emu to play your roms.. like gavin suggested, use the retroarch cores on this site.. use my config as well.. and you'll be playing those old roms easily..

Yeah I use retroarch for odds and ends. I bet that is what happened maybe I read it played smsroms but it was for pc or xbox1 version or something.

Any chance retroarch will support watara supervision anytime? I assume there needs to be an emulator first before it can be added to retroarch

Where do I find your config files? and what does it set up?

what is the correct folder structure for roms? I have a bunch of mame games in the folder and showing in the emulator, however the smsrom i added doesnt show up. i have the file unzipped, ill try rezipping it. my understanding is that fbanext plays sega master system and other roms as well. do they need to be in a dif folder or just the standard rom folder. inside that folder is neocdz so i made a folder callsed smsroms but that didnt work either

(update) I got this emulator to work to somehow, not sure but i did get a newer version as well. read somewhere that fsd works better for some emulators but it boots from aurora as well.

SuperVisionX - Watara Supervision Emulator for XBox v4 (i got the madmab edition)

on the downside my favorite game doesnt work, "crystball", i got one of these for christmas (one on right) and had that game.  i read somewhere that game doesnt work on alot of the emulators for some reason. it boots and even loads/plays music fine, but when i fire the first ball it freezes but music continues. good enough for some nosaligia i guess

Ive also attached the emulator in case anyone wants to try it, im sure you can find a good rom set somewhere.

supervisionx_v4.rar

UPDATE  so i have been messing with alot of classic original xbox games on my rgh and decided to try a few of the old emulators, if u need help finding files i can help.

ive also noticed certain versions, builds or premade download packages dont work, hit or miss until u find the right combo of emu/version/skin.

ressurectionxtras makes it easy to show game covers, title shots, carts, movies and more. can even view commercials faqs maps etc while playing. after some proper configs and skins i have my emus showing an awesome cover flow with triple screens (movie, art/cart, screen/title). finding the extras is easy with google search, downloading takes time, compiling into directories is work but in the end the outcome is perfection. what can be better than viewing all of that stuff while browsing for a game, esp if you havent played most of the games before.

WORKING

***do not use hq4x on any emus, well most of the time if i try it, freeze, havent tried them all but alot***

MednafenX-NES - NES Emulator for XBox v15                ------          flawless with media support (recommended for sure)

NeoGensPlusGX v1b06 - multicore sega emulator, gg, sms, gen, cd etc  --- flawless with media support (recommended for sure) (so many multi system duplicates so renamed everything with prefixes so that gg cover doesnt preview for gen or sms game etc.) sega cd seems to be lacking music sound in most games, could be my game formats, swear sonic cd had music then delted cue didnt have music just fx, got a new iso vs bin sound again, then zipped because broswing was a pain. lost music sound again. unzipped to folder still no sound. idk.

Supervision v4 - working with media support (recommended for sure)  [crystaball (1 of the only games i had) doesnt work, but i dont think it works on pc emu either. plays music so nostalgia.]

Snes9xbox core 1.51 - latest version but use 151.xbe. ---- snes emulator -----------   working with media support (recommended for sure)

xboyadvance v10 - works, gbc,gb,gba all working, no movie previews

xboyadvance v24b6 -   gba roms work fine, increase frame rate to play perfect. gb/gbc do not load and cause white screen/freeze. media works for everything. (worth having for the media part and the gba part)

mednafenx-pce v6bsomething - pce/pce cd emu   ----   works perfectly with media support (recommended for sure)

mednafenx-lynx--latest v --        atari lynx emu ----      works perfectly with media support (recommended for sure)

Starts but not working

xboyadvance v24 - gba/gb/gbc/sgb emulator - madmab edition, emulator starts and media support works, but freezes(white screen) when gb/gbc roms are loaded, gba roms work fine, speed up frame rate.

surreal64 - 64emulator - emulator starts but freezes when loading roms. tried several times, several settings, sometimes seems close neever loads. or crashes or freezes.

pcsx- ps1 emu -- starts but crashes when loading roms, tried once, no setting changes.

atarixlbox - atari 800, 2600, 5200, xl emu --- starts loads rom, returns to directory after 3 seconds, no controller function?

not working (versions i have tried)

Xnes           -------------           fatal crash (loop) had to restart manually

nestopiaX      ------------- fatal crash to aurora dash

FCEUltraX - NES/Famicom Emulator for XBox v17     ______________  works

wondering what else works as far as homebrew goes, most 360 emulators are pretty great so the originals are not too exciting to some but cover flow is good for the kids and alot of the madmab emulators work on 360 if not all of them. http://www.emuxtras.net/

You'd need to edit the XBE

found this link, used a hex editor to change title id and used red dead revolver profile, no luck yet.

You need a workbench disc/image which contains the GUI System of the Amiga Computer. The Kickstart is only the OS data that is stored in the Rom of a Amiga Computer. Good old days.  

makes sense. work on this more later. my first pc was windows 95 so before my time.

can this thread get moved to request section

here is a quick video of the emulator running on my rgh360 and my game library. 2nd half is gameplay of jet moto.

havent figured out how to fix the scaling yet, not sure if its in the emulator or my tv/xbox

I have several games with multiple *.bin files.  Is there a better way to manage these so I am not scrolling down the menu forever.  Thanks!

WHat I do is mount the .cue file with daemon tools or whatever, and then use IMGBurn (use imgburn not others) create img from disc and it should create a single bin and cue file. Theres a good tutorial on the net somewhere if you google it. I did it to several in my library. some games had multiple bins and only showed once in the cover flow but others showed each bin file, so I went ahead and combined all of them and added covers.

I tried CTR just now on 2.1.1 version and it freezes during opening intro. will this work for the new version or any ideas for this game?

also we should start a compatabilty thread where we could post reports of our pplaythroughs or bugs.

You'd have to use my Asset Editor, which you also posted in

I got editor working and I figured out, I could probably use the import function also too because I found an easy way to find title ids, "in subtitle, during aurora cover flow". but asset editor is easy and legit, sometimes it takes 2 tries to get assets other than that it works perfect.

You are missing the SQLite.dll file. You can google it, and download it, then place it next to the app. Then the Sqlite stuff will work.

thanks, keep that in mind if it happens again. i tried a few hrs later and all of a sudden it downloaded my database and i was able to edit my covers.

i have the emulator running, with kickstart 1.3 or 3.0 but not sure what to do from there, any one know anything about this emulator? my main goal is to get a web browser running which seems impossible but...

i read somewhere in this thread about POSSIBLY using a different games profile to try to get a game to work, by changing title id.

How could I try this? I want to try to get the warriors to work. it freezes at the 1st menu.

edit: I copied the contents from the compatablity folders of gta vice city and chaged the name to match title id of warriors game, then i deleted the existing warriors folders inside compatabilty and repaced with renamed vice city but it still froze at same place. maybe try one more swap but not looking good.

In general, there's nothing you can do to fix these games, possibly use the profile of a different game (change the Title ID)
