There has been another dynamic patch added that gives a pretty great boot speed increase (4-5 seconds faster). On a falcon jtag it measured 8 seconds to bootanim in minimal mode, and 9.5 seconds in full mode. We have added a library (RGLoader.xex) that runs after the kernel has been initialized and patches xam and other things. We will be adding more features to this later, but copy the RGLoader.ini to the root of your hard drive to check out some new features. -USB Fat32 drives show up in xbox neighborhood and you can launch games/xex from them. (this means you can flash the image on, boot into minimal, and load the hdd files off a flash drive and copy them to the hard drive) -Xbox Live DNS blocking -Configurable default dashboard MAKE SURE YOU UPDATE YOUR HDD FILESYSTEM FOLDER! ---------------------------- WARNING: There is a problem with some slims not running in minimal mode (NAND only mode). This means it is critical for you to have a hdd and your files setup correctly. You will get E79 if you have this problem. ---------------------------- Compatibility: Motherboard -Xenon Jtag -Zephyr Jtag/RGH1/RGH2 -Falcon Jtag/RGH1/RGH2 -Jasper Jtag/RGH1/RGH2 -Trinity RGH (minimal mode may not work) NAND -16MB -64MB ================Flexible Systemroot Patches===================== (hard drive free installs!) We have added a new feature to replace the E90 error that gets thrown when the hard drive is missing or files have been misnamed. If any errors occur during its attempt to remap systemroot to the hard drive (wrong folder name, hdd unplugged, etc..) it will boot into minimal NAND only mode where the devkit launcher dashboard will still boot. This means that a hard drive is not neccesary to run RGLoader! This also means that you can just flash the image on and use minimal mode to copy and setup the hard drive files for the full installation using xbox neighborhood. It is not recommended to use the minimal mode, but it does work. ================================================================ =====================JTAG BETA RELEASE========================== We are now beta testing xenon and hdmi jtags! When building a jtag image, it is best to supply an already jtagged NAND. This way any customizations to your SMC will be kept and also if your crc does not match it will not matter. (this will not be neccesary in final release) NOTE: When an already patched SMC is supplied, the builder will say (unable to patch). Just ignore this. XELL HAS BEEN ADDED TO JTAG IMAGES! :) ================================================================ =====================DUMMY KV Generation======================== To protect you from getting your keyvaults banned, we have added an option to options.ini for creating a temporary dummy KV. This sometimes introduces a lag when going to the dashboard and some xex caused by the xbox live connection timeout. If this annoys you, just disable it in options.ini and we will get it fixed soon. ================================================================ RGH2 Support has been added! Big thanks to Team-Xecuter for their research and work. Dynamic patches have been added! Use options.ini to configure extra patches like NOFCRT or NOMU. Big thanks to team-xecuter & xconsoles for donating a xenon jtag! Would not have been possible without this. This builder still does not support big block jaspers. I know this sucks for a lot of jtags, so we will try to get this out ASAP. ---Things to come--- Jtag patch compiling at build Big block support. hvxbootOS much more... ________________________________________ ________/ / \ \_____________________ / - | RGLoader Runtime Patcher | - \ Features ----------------- Adds extra patches for xam or any other exe/dll in memory. Gives more runtime access and control on patches. Loads rgloader.ini from the hard drive root and also flash drive root. Block_Live_Dns = Blocks xbox live DNS so you can't "phone home" Map_USB_Mass = Makes all usb devices show up in xbox neighborhood Default_Dashboard = Sets the default dashboard Usage ----------------- Configure and place rgloader.ini onto the root of your hard drive (Partition 1), or usb thumb drive. Reboot. _____________________ _________________/ / \ \_____________________ / - | USAGE | - \ AS OF 0v99 YOU NEED TO PROVIDE THE FILESYSTEM FILES -- Download a filesystem package and extract it into the same folder as this builder (merging filesystems and loaders) Slims require fcrt.bin to play retail DVDs. ----------------------------------------------------- You will need .NET Framework 4 installed. May work with Mono. Create a folder 'Filesystems' (don't forget the 's') on the xbox hard drive. (This is where you will store the devkit system files since they won't all fit on a 16MB retail NAND.) Copy the devkit files to a folder '14699-dev' (or 14719-dev for ver.14719) inside of 'Filesystems' on the HDD. ie: hdd:/Filesystems/14699-dev Put your nand next to the builder and name it "nand.bin". Open the RGBuild Launcher and type in your CPU_Key and select your build options. Click "RGBuilder" button to start the process. Output will be next to this file named: Image._____.bin ----------- Prototype NAND Image Editor ----------- Click "RGLoader" button in the launcher, or run rgbuild.exe /ui to open the rgbuild UI, which is a prototype NAND image editor similar to 360 flash tool. The GUI is still very beta, but should be very functional now. Please reports bugs to #rgloader! _______ ________________ _______ // \_______\ /_______/ \\ \_____________________|- Known Bugs -|________________________/ -Occasionally slims/trinitys will freeze or reboot on the first boot attempt after a reflash.

We hold no claim to researching everything used in rgloader. It's thanks to the work of the amazing people below that we got anywhere: tmbinc, almost every 360 tool owes you for your initial work. although we may be -FAR- away from your intended goals, we'd still like to thank you for your amazing work and the example you set for a good reverse engineerer. The 360 Flash Tool team, thanks for your amazing tool which has helped many people, many times over. My only gripe is that it's not open, maybe one day. GliGli, Tiros, and co., I'm sure anybody with a glitched console should know the work you all put in. I hope recent releases won't deter you from continuing to contribute to the scene with your work. Tuxuser, Cancerous, sk1080, and Juvenal for their work on open source, legal homebrew. Big thanks to cOz for tips and hints and for the work he has contributed to the scene. jsjar for graphics and dash skin. m0j0j0_j0 for RGLauncher skin and icons. Thanks to Tortuga Cove for providing news updates and hosting services. GliGli, Tiros, cOz, and co.
