KaleSlayer 2 Posted July 3, 2015 I have a Jtag that has been having some rather unique and strange issues that have been driving me nuts lately. There are 3 simple things that I'm trying to do with my Jtag that don't seem to work.1. Use a custom boot animation. For some reason I followed a tutorial video completely and my custom boot animation still won't work. The console boots but has no animation whatsoever and boots straight into Freestyle Dash.2. Setup LiNK. Now I know this one is a little harder because every router is different. I've done port forwarding in the past with my old router and ISP. However now I can seem to figure out how to connect to the correct TCP and UDP ports to establish a LiNK connection.3. Press the guide button and have custom guide settings. This may be the most confusing of all my issues. When I press the guide button it shows the original Xbox 360 dashboard. When it should be showing the Freestyle Dash guide settings that include temperature, file manager and system link. I had the custom settings there before and then they decided to disappear one day. Not sure what I did to make them go away but it would be nice to bring them back because they are extremely useful and necessary for LiNK and other Jtag operations. Please note that I did end up completely re-installing Freestyle Dash and this worked for a time but then the same issue happened and the settings disappeared again. Also the guide settings that show up currently that every Xbox 360 has such as Xbox home, open tray, system settings, my games, etc. are non functioning meaning that when I press the guide button and then press system settings literally nothing happens it just closes the guide. I know this is all a lot to ask but help would be very much appreciated. I've spent countless hours watching videos and roaming forums to find my solutions but I just can't seem to figure out the answers to these questions on my own. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

felida 1654 Posted July 3, 2015 How exactly do you enable the freestyle plugin? press start, go to plugin, tick the always load at boot, or the big button that says "LOAD".. it'll say "UNLOAD" if it is loaded already ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KaleSlayer 2 Posted July 3, 2015 Is this in Freestyle Dash that I do this? press start, go to plugin, tick the always load at boot, or the big button that says "LOAD".. it'll say "UNLOAD" if it is loaded already ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
felida 1654 Posted July 3, 2015 Is this in Freestyle Dash that I do this? nah, that's in Aurora.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

felida 1654 Posted July 3, 2015 Ah it's loaded so basically FSD is just stupid and screwed then? i wouldn't say all that.. just no support anymore, as Aurora is the new standard.. some would say 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
