Xecuter3 News and Updated Feature List
Date: Tuesday, May 25 @ 00:00:00 UTC
Topic: Xbox Bios


We are happy to present a revised feature list of X3 - the most feature packed BIOS and mod hardware ever designed for the Xbox. As you can see we have now added full I/O support for LCD as well as expanding the i2c bus to support LCD modules that require only 4 wires - we will also do some kind of bundle deal where the LCD would cost only an extra $10 to $20. The mod is designed to give you a hassle free install (we provide everything you require - no need to solder extra wires for extra functions such as LCD support or any switches you may want to use) Not only is X3 powerful - it’s also a lot of fun to use. Those who like toying with their bios will love X3 Config Live.

The first round of beta versions were shipped today to our core developers. Once we have finalized any changes X3 will ship to our public beta list which we have carefully selected over the last couple of weeks.
There is so much more we are going to add to the bios in future - as we have always done for you in the past, not to mention the expansive windows based software that is also being developed to make your mod experience even better. Currently we are finishing the addition of v1.6 support to our BIOS which would of course be of some use to those who want to play games / run unsigned code. We have worked so hard on the quality of X3 in the last few months - we sincerely hope that you enjoy our efforts.
