XboxMediaCenter 666 CVS T3CH build with MC360 X360 Reproduction Skin
>> It's 06/06/06 6.66pm British Summer Time (or about)...
T3CH released a new CVS compile of XboxMediaCenter(info). This 06/06/06 CVS build is the first with (a beta version of) Team Blackbolt's MC360 skin, an X360 reproduction skin for XboxMediaCenter.
This T3CH-compile is a complete snapshot of what is in CVS at the time the build was compiled, with just a few small additions.
XBMC is in a FEATUREFREEZE at the moment. If you want to report bugs, please do it the PROPER way, see here.
Noteworthy, XML and Script changes in this build:
* The date 060606 brings us MC360 BETA version.
* !THIS IS NOT XBMC 2.0.0, XBMC is still pre 2.0.0!
* The change of location for GUI settings is a big change.
You will have to redo all your GUI settings (unless you have them specified in AdvancedSettings.xml)
Also changed is that all tags in AdvancedSettings.xml needs to be lowercase.
* If you wondered what happened to XBoxMediaCenter.xml, More info here and here.
* changed: redid master lock. thanks to smokehead for skin work! (won't work with MC360)
* changed: Settings cleanup (simplified programs + video auto-switching, removed some that are no longer necessary)
* changed: TDATA\0face008\settings.xml moved to UserData\guisettings.xml
* XBoxMediaCenter.xml: All lockcodes (shares) must now be MD5 hashed!
You can find the full changelog of this CVS release since the 2006-05-28 T3CH CVS here.
The full nfo/readme of T3CH is available here.
Keep in mind this is a CVS snapshot of the current development tree. It's not an official (stable) point release. Use only if you know what you are doing.
Here are some screenshots of Team Blackbolt's MC360 skin:

Special Note From Team Blackbolt:

Today is the day, finally the skin is released. Nearly 6 months of every ounce of spare time for nearly 10 people has amounted to this day. The entire team, Los93sol, Donno, Jezz-X, JMarshall, Kotix, Deanparry, Smokehead and of course myself are very proud of everything we have accomplished and happy that its finaly avaliable for everyone. So this is how the release will go, we will release in the following way:
* Download the complete T3CH 06/06/06 with Skin from the MainXbins FTP Server
* Download the Skin Standalone from the Downloads section of blackbolt.x-scene.com.
From this day updates will be available as and when needed via the downloads and also the MC360 button top of the website. Every time T3CH is released, you will get the very latest MC360 packaged along with it.
So for those that don't know what MC360 is I will explain. MC360 or Media Center 360 is a skin UI for Xbox Media Center, a free homebrew media application for the Xbox. You need a modded Xbox to use XBMC and also MC360. MC360 uses the new 2.0 version of the skinning engine in XBMC. The final XBMC 2.0 is still a little while away but that doesnt mean you cant see the benefits of it now eh, by using the latest CVS Builds. To find more information on MC360 click the MC360 icon top center and to find more on XBMC click here.
The skin will be released at 6.66pm BST (British Summer Time) or 7.06 to the none humorous folks! So I will see you guys in IRC and on the forums later this evening to hear your feedback. I hope you enjoy our hardwork, remember you can always donate using the button at the bottom of every page on this site, its a great way to show support and ensure the future of Team Blackbolt skins. Thank you.
