Freestyle Dash 2.0 R557

I  just fixed some annoying issue in the game list : some items were not displayed properly (ie totally missing)
I dont quite understand what was going it, just redesigned the whole thing 2-3 times and finally got it right.
As for the "font" issue. Seems like its a unicode to multibyte problem.I kindof fixed it but still need a bit of tweaking.
While texting with game title, i added a feature some of you may found useful, this will probably still be in final version :
When in a game list, if you it lb + rb you will be prompted to rename the game!
Things are starting to take shape! just some minor work required are were back to a fully functionnal state!

What I have in mind to do next :
Change the game picture way of rendering, instead of exporting texture to png and sending it to xuiimage, we should just draw it in the render loop.
I want to experiment with a way to buffer large image before drawing them...

Screenshots :













Game list view with box art.








Fight Night Round 3 before being renamed (Extracted XEX title is EA SPORTS FN 3)












Renamed it to Fight Night Round 3













XBLA view.













New debugger look : left colomn is updated file that needs to be deployed to 360. You can right click the view to deploy changes, deploy the xex or deploy the whole skin.  There is now log tabs. Each tab correspond to a run of the software, ie : if it crash and reboot, it will automatically create a new tab.

  4. it seems really great works, but it's a pity that a software started as opensource (thank you again, axc97c!), now is bidded by someone....
    Everyone let feel free to donate to the developers, but i hope noone will have to pay for homebrew software!

  5. Stick and : We are not selling beta nor svn access and are totally not buyable! Anyway, you would be disapointed to have an unstable build! :P

    Huge thx to all donators! You can be sure this money will be used to help FSD development (buying an XDK as soon as I reach enough money).

    Frog : We're not quite ready for translation yet, i'll post info in here when we'll need translators.

    andrea : Software is still opensource, complete source is released with every release, as axc97c did! We are the ones who started the google code svn but current developement process required us to move to a private svn. We rebuilded the whole code, therefore, any interim build is not complete! Ie : r216, the one after latest google code commit, was some kind of Hello World! How pissed would you have been to update your fsd and get an hello world?

  6. Helldoc, i understand and respect your (and of the rest of the team) decision of taking the source in a private svn, i was only disappointed with who offered money to have the access to the code or the beta...

    i used the 1.1 source only to make some minimal customization (my son ask me about a RROD led option :) ), but i realized how difficult is work (almost for me) with the xbox library and architecture! so, thank you again and, as conferm my post wasn't in anyway against your work, i'll make a little donation in a few minutes! (and start waiting for the release!)

  7. Hey maybe this has already been answered but do you guys plan on adding a split screen file browser like there was in XBMC and UnleashX for the xbox 1? It would make moving and manipulating files a lot easier and faster.

    Anyways, Thanks for the awesome work!

  8. Helldoc:
    I spend 100$! Thx for the great app! I hope the team can buy a XDK much faster!

    How much money the team need?

  9. Damn frog that's really generous, I wish I could contribute that kind of cake rather than the usualy $10-$20 so I have to at least thank ya for helping these guys continue to bring us such great code.

  10. This is NXE gone bad ass... I just wish we can use a Beta without the Mplayer port to use this and once MPlayer is ready, update.


    Good work on this!!!
