hi blunted..
I would just copy the emulators whole folder to:
e:\apps\SNES\ (just for example)
Then reboot your xbox and it should show up automatically in your menu.
If you want it to lookup the e:/emulators directory you will need to edit your evox.ini which is located on your xbox in the c: directory..
FTP into your xbox and get a backup of the evox.ini and then edit the evox.ini with notepad and look for roughly this line (its not exactly perfect either.. just off the top of my head.. havent used evox in many months)
Code:
AutoAddItem "e:\apps";
FInd that line or similar and then copy and paste a new line like this:
i tried what you said and i still am not seeing the emulators under the
"launch emulators" part of the menu.
i changed the evo.ini file and moved the whole folder into e:\apps\SNES\
i am using snes9 i don't know if that means anything.. i did see
xsnes9x which says is for xbox, I do not know these differences.....
kinda confused
thanks blunted

just to make sure:
You do have a default.xbe file dont you and a heap of other files??
Is it still a .iso file??
If the emulators (SNES) is still in .iso format you will need to use a XISO tool extract all the files and folders from inside so you can put it on the xbox hdd..
you should have a folderlooking something like this:
e:\apps\snesx\default.xbe
e:\apps\snesx\font.xpr
e:\apps\snesx\media\
etc etc (just as example)
so wait im confused......what am i to do?!?!?!?!?!?

Hi,
Either go searching the net for hours and look for the SNES XBOX EMULATOR (real one).. or just donate $5 bucks and download everything from the one place.. (here)..
Actually what you really want to download is called the Auto Installer deluxe v2.0.. (http://aid.xbox-hq.com)
Once you download this huge file and burn it to a DVD-R or CDRW you can boot it in your xbox and it will install 60+ dashboards, emulators (snes, n64, ps1 etc etc) and many other xbox apps directly from your xbox joypad..
heres the name of the file you want for you xbox anyway:
xSnes9x
Description: A decent SNES emulator for Xbox.
alright man i think i will keep searching for alternate AID downloads only because i don't think i wanna wait 5 days lol like bit torrent has been telling me for the last 2 hours
i just hope it will speed up
thanks again,

also make sure your download AID2 and not version 1.0. AID1 is heaps older..
yea im downloadin v.2.0
i read somewhere that to increase bitTorrent speeds i must do some port
forwarding on my firewall.... my firewall is zone alarm trial edition
which does not allow me to open ports
any suggestions???
thanks

you could gain much better download speeds just by turning off the firewall all together..
Thats what i would do but i dont really have alot of data on my machine to worry about..
well problem is solved i found a trial edition of zone alarm pro.
and i managed to open all the nessary ports my Dl speed is up to
125 kb/sec YAY!!!
thanks
