I made a script for XBMC to fix these games. It’s part of my XBMC4Gamers side project.
( XBMC4Kids is it’s old name )

thanks a lot for your reply , I went slightly through the thread you mentioned, it looks fantastic, reminds me of Aurora of xbox360 ...

but I just wanna understand and sorry if its so dump question, but this will be my default dashboard then ? leave unleash ? how can I switch the default one then ? and do you mean that now when I run any of the emulators I mentioned (fce or retroarch etc) the display wont go crazy again??
thanks alot

You only need the script, so you can install it as a application and just run the script to auto patch your games or manually patch what ever app/game you want.

ok now i tried to figure out how to use dvd2box to patch but i couldn't, where exactly do i have to put the contents of (480p game loader) folder? in xbox folder of dvd2box itself or where?

another thing is that the emu runs fine from dvd2box when i run it from its file browser!!

:shock: :?

There is a scripts folder inside the 480p game loader folder, so you would place that in your XBMC installation and overwrite the old scripts folder.

Then you run the script from the programs > scripts tab on the home screen.

I had the same issue on my 1.6 Xboxes, i just pressed Down and A, a few times and it was fixed. If not you can use a different launcher like Ava Launch also make sure the emulators are the latest versions.
