OpenXDK

The Free, Legal, Open Source XBox Development Kit...

 

Empty Code

 

This code isn't going to be much to look at..hehe..in fact its what you would call a minimal requirement :)  But once you get here, you could in fact write all custom routines etc to access the xbox memory and things.  As you will be able to generate a working xbe!  Yup folks, an xbe is an xbox executable, and using our OpenXDK and our code...we'll be making xbox code run on our xbox.

 

Download Code (main.cpp)

 

// Program Entry Point

void XBoxStartup()

{

    // Our code goes here

    return;

}// End

 

 

 

/*

// Or

#include <openxdk.h>

 

void XBoxStartup()

{

    HalReturnToFirmware(ReturnFirmwareFatal);

    return;

}// End

*/

 

 

// You could use 'XBoxCRTStartup' as your entry point instead of XBoxStartup

// but you need the <openxdk.h> header file for this, as its just a function

// in the openxdk librarys...which once it starts calls the function XBoxStarup

 


Now its upto you, but when my xbox returns from the code, it just resets.  I found that when I called 'HalReturnToFirmware(..)' my xbox made me go....hemmagbuukkjeekkk!!.... as it jumped to the xbox warning screen - which was a load of strange characters warning that the xbox needs servicing....heheh... But I just drank some coffee and switched my xbox off and on....and I was ready to go again.

 

A small note here - developers who use the debug bios will not be able to run some of the openxdk samples...as the graphics o/p is only compatible with retail xbox's.
