    Great video as usual! Thanks for your service eduacting the community.
    Two important little bits of information. FeudalNate's Content Recovery Tool can not sign Phantasy Star Online DLC, but those can easily be redownloaded through Insignia.
    The Recovery Tool also doesn't run on Xemu, so you'll need to use an installer, Insignia, or sign your content on your PC and FTP it into the xemu instance if for some reason you change your Xemu HDDkey (why would you!?)

    I don't understand why they don't just disable the check for a 0 key.
    If all 1s works fine then the uniqueness of the key obviously doesn't matter to online play so why prevent 0s from working? Either that or if someone gets banned with all 1s, everyone with all 1s gets banned..?

    • @MrMario2011
      @MrMario2011  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's not how the Xbox Live infrastructure worked, and Insignia is a recreation of that. Key is irrelevant for banning. Your EEPROM gets banned, not your HDD key.

      @@MrMario2011 which is what I actually assumed, but then knowing that tons of people on Insignia would be doing this, I still fail to understand why they wouldn't simply bypass such a check.

    You know what's funny? I just ran xcat on all of my xboxes, and though i should probably softmod them all and look into what goes into an hdd upgrade in 2024. I remember back in the day having to hook my 80 gig to my pc and running a command line util. Looking forward to this one

    Great vid, thanks Mario, i do have a question though.
    If my soft-modded console already has a upgraded 1tb HDD can i still do this? Chimp says to never unlock HDD but the NKpatcher will unlock it to Null/Uno the key? (yes im aware i should have nulled prior to upgrade :(
    also which eeprom backup should be the main one i save? after softmod, after Null/Uno, after HDD 1tb upgrade, etc?
    thanks mate!

    Is it considered best practice to standardize my HDD key before upgrading to a new HDD? I have no intention of going on Insignia.

    Nice video. The biggest problem i had with the forza motorsport resigner that i tried everything from the internet to resign my forza save is if you want to resign the save from a zeroed hdd key it will not work. i found a guy on discord who helped me and resigned my save of forza motorsport with some minor problem (i had to go with each car on buy tune or paint than back out withouth modifing anything just to get the saving promt and then the cars are properly displayed in garage)

    Theoretically, if I soft mod a stock Xbox following the tutorial to standardize the HDD then assign the same number to the HDD of my modded Xbox and Lock it,can I will able to transplant the HDD of my modded Xbox into the soft modded one ?
    Thanks 😊

    • @MrMario2011
      @MrMario2011  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Nope, since the softmod resides on the HDD itself. That would only work if the transplanted HDD has a softmod on it.

      i want to change my 500gb ide HDD already prepared with XBMC4GAMERS for a 1Tb sata HDD and prepare a surprise for a friend with a softmodded xbox with my 500gb HDD inside without doing the long process of copying the content again ;)
