Yet another discovery by yours truly - Page 2

The thing was it was only a one day ban..... but not it is perm....

Anyways that is really great news about those screenshots. It was so obvious you could just rename the files but yet noone noticed. Perhaps they will work with movies from other games aswell?

Hehe I posted the other movies. Finding nemo.

Sounds similar to when ppl renamed quake3.exe to quack3.exe to get it to run w/o optimizations. Sometimes the simplest things are the ones most overlooked

. I would test it too if I had a decent comp as well as some xbox games. So you have tested 2 games so far with this method?

**caustik** · August 16th, 2003

its nifty to see these other xmvs running under cxbx. nice find.

Well no I have about 7 or 8 games. star wars knights of the old republic did not work. lakemasters did and finding nemo. The others either dont have any videos files to play with (Usually all in one huge file) or they are in bik which you can easily dl the radtools and watch. And caustik I was going to post the logs on XDKTracker. I got the kernel to log but for some reason the gui log wont do anything (0 bytes) and ideas?

>>but razorblade who you talking about?

Flagship. He was being an A-Hole. Great shots though. Keep em coming is possible.

Well i still dint get those logs... (to all those newbs im the guy that wrote the tracker) as soon as i get them i'll forward then to caustik, or he can just download them himself.

kcar181 · August 16th, 2003

I didn't send them. For some reason one isnt er logging.

pro-logic · August 16th, 2003

not to try and make you feel stupid or anything but have a look if your loging both logs in the same folder... i did log some stuff while testing the tracker and then i was searching the whole comp for each log... (but thats just me and i'm a little stupid)
oh and btw too all members when you download it and log in it will give you some sort of write error... don't worry about it thats just me playing around with the login feature... all other things SHOULD work, if they don't then post me ASAP and i'll restore everything.

kcar181 · August 16th, 2003

Yes I get 2 logs in the same folder. One is 1.7mb and one is 0 bytes. Should I post it anyway?

pro-logic · August 16th, 2003

duno, you might get 0 in one of them because it crashes before it registers anything
that *could* be a possiblility

kcar181 · August 16th, 2003

ok well i uploaded it. And I just installed a geforce4 ti4800SE last night. The log should be different with that right? So when I get it want me to upload another log?

**Chrono Archangel** · August 16th, 2003

cant anyone else try getting some other movies qorking like that?

pro-logic · August 17th, 2003

yeh, thats a good point the different graphics card point... i should put that in my program

kcar181 · August 17th, 2003

Hehe well it should be here in 3-4days.....I can't wait ^^ gf2 to 4 hope it's a huge difference

Edit: Ok since I don't have any other games. And you want more screens I'll post a few more turoks. Here they are.

kcar181 · August 18th, 2003

Is anyone else capable of doing this? Or am I the only one? I'll try to get more games for screenies. Let me know if you want them if not I wont waste my time

Brick_top · August 19th, 2003
