gavin_darkglider 1562 Posted March 9, 2015 Because of all the changes, between versions, you have to get themes for the version of FSD you are running, or it will result in a black screen, and not being able to do anything. You can remove FSD, and you wont loose anything, except FSD, covers, and settings. I would suggest switching to Aurora, as you will get better support for it, since it is still being developed. So, if I were you I would install Aurora and scrap FSD all together, Aurora handles large library's better, loading times are faster, and it is all around a better dash.

Swizzy 2084 Posted March 9, 2015 FSD 2.2 and F3 are very different, you cannot use the skins from 2.2 with F3, you can't even use the F3 skins between different revisions, you have to use the correct one for your revision of F3... I don't think the stored structure is quite the same either, so you're best of just setting up a fresh F3 (with the latest version found on the forum, or just go for Aurora instead which is the new dash after F3) and using that instead FSD 2.2 is old, very very old... alot of things have changed since it was released Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoomr2 4 Posted March 9, 2015 Thank you very much both for the answers so my one option is to use aurora (something that i know zero but i will read and learn) only one question aurora do not affect the nand version (it is ok to use it with 16747 i mean) and have the same pros like link and etc like fsd?? Otherwise how can i correct my mistake if you can help me, i delete fsd3 folder and freestyle folder exept data folder inside an do a clean installation?? Replace the files of freestyle folder (2.2) with fsd 3 and run it?? Or what to else to do?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoomr2 4 Posted March 9, 2015 Additional questions, realy sorry for the trouble. If i go over a fresh istalation of f3 (through dvd) i will tick the delete the older files??? This will cause lost of data (exept gamepaths etc that i have to reset them)??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoomr2 4 Posted March 9, 2015 My internal hdd now fsd folder has fsd 3 and freestyle the older version Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gavin_darkglider 1562 Posted March 10, 2015 If you are going to fix the problem, completely remove fsd folders, and then extract a new version of either aurora 0.4b or fsd 3.0b rev 775, which was the final version. copy to a folder on hdd. configure launch.ini default = to point to the xex file, default.xex for FSD, and Aurora.xex for aurora, in the folder you just created. then all you have to do is reconfigure scan paths, re-enter your unity account info, and re download all the covers, and TUs. Unfortunatly, you cant back this up, and you probably dont have the knowledge to manually edit the database, to possibly fix the setup you have. this is the easiest option. Â Also, there is no reason to have the $Systemupdate and $Titleupdate folders on your HDD. that is just a waste of space. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoomr2 4 Posted March 10, 2015 Gavin thank you very much. one last question when you say configure launch.ini you mean from dashlaunch right??? And to go right first delete both files with fsd then do as you say with the new???? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2084 Posted March 10, 2015 Gavin thank you very much. one last question when you say configure launch.ini you mean from dashlaunch right??? And to go right first delete both files with fsd then do as you say with the new???? Step 1. Run XEXMenu Step 2. Delete any FSD folder you have on your harddrive, and delete those $SystemUpdate and $TitleUpdate Step 3. Put Aurora (or F3 rev 775) on your console Step 4. Either boot Dashlaunch installer or manually edit launch.ini to point to Aurora or F3 (depending on which you installed) NOTE: if you use the dashlaunch installer you have to save the settings using the function for that, as it's runtime settings until you save the ini... Step 5. Reboot your console and check that it's still working as expected Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zoomr2 4 Posted March 11, 2015 Ok thank you very much i will search for a list for supported ones. Thanks again for all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2084 Posted March 11, 2015 Ok thank you very much i will search for a list for supported ones. Thanks again for all Basically, go to xboxunity.net, use the filter function and you'll see which games are LiNK enabled, these games have been proven to have System Link by the community and are thus enabled by me and the admins... Basically tho, if you can find "System Link", "LAN" or similar in the menu's, that's what we need to see (along with the TitleID) in order for the game to be activated, however, old games are less likely to have players to play with, and infact... if you do find a old game that does have LiNK, but isn't LiNK enabled, it's most likely not that much fun to play and nobody is going to play with you (unless you have friends that do play it, it's likely rare that you'll find someone to play with) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You probably didn't get XEXMenu installed... download it and write a textfile that contains: default=usb:\path\to\xexmenu This textfile you save as "launch.ini" including the quotes (if you use notepad to write it...)Just change "path\to\xexmenu" to the directory structure of your USB device, the final part is the name of the file that's to be launched (default.xex if you went for the xex version of XEXMenu or C0DE9990 if it's the LIVE version) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
