[xANTIKiLlAx]

@si13ntsl4y3r search on google whatever plugin you need and follow it with rapidshare or megaupload. then click thru the links till you find a working one.

Fail , XEX files are based off of windows exe files

[XncsXMods]

@gruntlover2 before you comment learn what your talking about cause it makes you look clueless

[gruntlover2]

@XncsXMods uhhm you learn what you are talking about .XEX tool converts XEX to windows pe (exe) files. If you did some research before you commented you would learn that the layout of a XEX files is almost the same as a windows PE files besides the header and the fact that it has to be signed

[XncsXMods]

@gruntlover2 it doesn't have to be signed he is running a homebrew console "JTAG". That console runs unsigned code.

[xANTIKiLlAx]

@gruntlover2 No shit, it is a microsoft executable fucker. Now when you learn to edit the file as a XEX then you tell me cause it is all encrypted till you convert over to a windows pe as you said. XEX= Xbox360 Executable

[coondogtheman1234]

can this tool be used to decompile a game for extraction of the audio files like the music speech and SFX?

Sadly I don't know PPC...

@recpyro : you have 2 address (entry point and loadaddress) , now when the Xenon Executable is compiled in the SDK the compiler adds the static libarys (Xnet, Xe) etc and it sets them to import from "xboxkrnl.exe and xam.xex" , now the start up in the file is litrally the start up (you see strings saying "PIX Dump ready" "Microsoft C Shader Compiler 2..0.7863.0" etc thats just the debugging content and shaders compiler at start up. you then have the raw game code from the entry point ;)

[xANTIKiLlAx]

@MegaSavexSGx come on Jed u know he wont understand any thing u just said LOL

[recpyro]

why do you change values other than the 82xxxxxx part?

[xANTIKiLlAx]

@recpyro 00Fxxxxxxxxxx

[recpyro]

@xANTIKiLlAx

[xSam8x]

[xANTIKiLlAx]

[NinjaxDGx]

JTAG RIGHT?

[xANTIKiLlAx]

@NinjaxDGx yeh :P

[thatguywithnoname]

@NinjaxDGx Well he's modding the executable so it won't be properly signed. What does a JTAG'd xbox do? Run unsigned executables (Modded or homebrew).
