read this then d/l the file from the link at the bottom

New retail games that need patching
>> HSDEMONZ (Xbox-Scene Forum Head-Moderator) warned me that several new games need patching before you can run them from HD (or backup them).

[QUOTE]
Well... a number of new games being released lately have changed the placement of their MEDIA descriptor in the DEFAULT.XBE files of the game! Current Titles affected so far:
All-Star Baseball 2003
World Series Baseball 2004
High Heat Baseball 2004
Rayman3

... all need to be patched. Owners of these games will need to PATCH these games.. so that they can be properly backed up! This is the same mess that ENIGMAH BETA and XTENDER users faced in the beginning. Now ALL Modchip users will need to apply some sort of patch to make these titles WORK! (that is.. until a new BIOS is release.. that fixes this in memory!)

Until then.. we have the fine research conducted by XEERO of XBOX-SCENE. He did the detective work.. and was the first to post details of why these 4 games needed patches!

He learned that you need to change a string in the original DEFAULT.XBE (the mediaflag moved to a new location , that's why current bioses don't patch it in memory).

From:
00 74 4B E8 CA FD FF FF 85 C0 7D 06 33 C0 50 50 EB 44 F6 05

To
00 74 4B E8 CA FD FF FF 85 C0 EB 06 33 C0 50 50 EB 44 F6 05

and the above 4 games would function properly as a backup from disc or hd!

Hope this helps

How do I go about patching the game and which patch do i download. I am not sure which mod chip i have but am using evolution x as my dashboard. Does the file need patching before extracting to your PC or can it be done prior to premastering to ISO image format. Please help with a step by step guide. Thanks!

you can patch before or after you make it an iso but it takes longer when in iso format.. d/l the patcher i put in the link above its the best ive found so far.

I thought Xecuter2 was another type of mod chip. Maybe I assumed wrong. OK! Tell me , where do I download this bios. I think I can flash from there.
Kinggee, works a treat. No problems now. Thanks!
