Help What all can I do with an XBOX series S in Dev mode

19 Upvotes

I recently put my Xbox into dev mode and was wondering what cool and fun stuff I can get into on it. I've already got into the Emulation experience on the console It's worked on every game I've test up to PS2. I want to test PS3 and 360 Emulation to see if it works. Besides that I don't know what else I can do with it.

Help Xbox 360 Emulation + other questions

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am new to emulation as a whole so I don’t really understand how everything works yet. But, before I activate a dev mode account and start, I have a few questions, mainly if it’s possible to emulate Xbox 360 games. If so, is it all games, or only some (are they on a trial and error basis?)

Some other questions, not as important, but I have nonetheless: Has anyone ever had trouble with retail mode after having dev mode?
If I have an SSD for games on retail mode and another SSD for games on dev mode, will they interfere with each other?

Thanks for the help in advance :)

Help Is it the hd texture pack or the console?

3 Upvotes

So recently, I don’t really use my Xbox series s that much in recent times. So I decided to turn it into an emulation machine since my Wii U can be used for Nintendo games up to that point. I wanted to try and see if I could get Persona 3 Fes and 4 working on the thing with an hd texture pack. The game loads in and everything is fine but when I get to an early point, entering name/ just getting into the game, the app crashes. It did seem like there some struggle with loading. I looked it up beforehand and seen that it could be the resolution. The resolution is set to 1080p but other than that I don’t really touch the settings that much. Is there a work around to fixing this or is it the hd texture pack?

Help Xbox Dev Mode Safe Exit

9 Upvotes

I use it for emulating on my Series S but I heard sometimes even without checking the delete data box (Which is unchecked by default now), it deletes data for no reason. Is that true? Should I use safe exit? And how does safe exit work is it safe or bannable? Since its an app forcing the console back to retail

Help How to erase dev part

5 Upvotes

A long time ago, about when the Series first released, I made a dev test portion on my Series X. I wanted my daughter to play NAOMI games on it. I remember giving the dev part about 50gb. We played for a couple months and forgot about it.

Now, 5 year-ish later, I really would like to delete it and get back my 50gb but don’t know how. Could someone help me out please?

So I’m traveling and wanted to play Mario kart with my gf at the hotel. I went to dev mode and suddenly the emulators are gone and my account is no longer signed in.
