heard from a buddy of mine that with any new games after resident evil 5 i cant make a backup for anymore. the guy isn't a good source for knowledge on this, or really anything else but wanted to makes sure. i just re-flashed my drive about two months ago with 1.50 or 1.51 i cant remember what it was but it was recent.

But I'm was talking about the UFC game coming out to my buddy and he started going on about how Microsoft is launching there new line of games that are suppose to be hack proof and i cant make backups anymore. first thing that pops in my head is i don't believe anyone who says that a company made it HACK/MOD proof, but there may be something to it so why I'm asking anyone who knows.

I dont care if you care about my spelling and or grammar. I also dont care if you dont care that i dont care that you care about my spelling and or grammar.

That's totally bullshit. Your buddy heard something about wave 3 and relied on some smattering he has. You can easily create backups of wave 3 games with XBC. By the way, the new wave was the only reason for iXtreme 1.51.

Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.

there is a new version of XBC on the way anyhow so any problems that are present will be taken care of. but i bleive the new version of XBC is mostly to support 1.6 0800 mode for all drives

If you send me questions on Live about modding or anything related i will block you. Dont be an idiot.

That is false. You can make backup and if you have 1.51 or 1.6 you can play them stealthed. IF you have lower, you have to patch them which is unsafe to play on a box that you use live with, good chance for banning if you do that. You could just use imgburn to make an iso from the disc and then run it through ABGX and burn. Voila! :)

Allows you to boot wave 3 games, like the other members said.


Quote:
As some of you know by now, Microsoft has started including the NXE (Fall '08 Dashboard Update) on new game discs. They added this update into the video partition on the disc, which of course makes the partition larger than it always has been on older games. Previously there were 2 known good sizes for the video partition, they were known as "wave1" and "wave2". One of the security features in all iXtreme firmware from 1.0 to the current version 1.5 is a check on the size of the video partition to make sure it matches either wave1 or wave2. The firmware will not boot any game that does not match wave1 or wave2, this is done to prevent booting bad backups and getting banned on Live. Since these new games have a larger video partition that does not match either wave, they do not boot.

They are calling these new games with the larger video partition "wave3" and our hacked firmware will need to be updated to accept this new size as a good value. c4eva has already started working on this and the new firmware will be released for all drives shortly. This new firmware will be version 1.51 and will simply add support for the new video partition size so that backups of new games will boot. All drives will need to be updated to 1.51 in order to play backups of new games!

you can get it through a torrent, just read comments on the torrent from other people to make sure your not downoading a virus. Just google it if you don't have a torrent site.
