Original Xbox games you still play Hey peeps just wondering how many of you still play your actual original xbox and what games. I've been playing through the original battlefront and some dead or alive 3. In OS X, select the OS 9 image file, press Command + I and lock the file so SheepShaver sees it as a CD. In SheepShaver, click Add, select the file, then press Ctrl + Esc to restart the emulator. Xbox One users can live stream and play their favourite games on Windows 10, but now, reports suggest that Apple Mac users can also do so. Below is a guide to use an Apple Mac running Windows 10.
This is Part 2 of the Xbox Softmod Kittutorial. This tutorial will show you how to customize your original Xbox after you have installed the softmod. Purchase the Original Xbox Softmod Kit to get started on softmodding your Xbox.
How to Transfer/Install Files to Xbox
There are several ways to transfer files such as Emulators, ROMs and homebrew apps to the original Xbox. The easiest being via FTP program (free). An FTP program is easy to use with our tutorial. To network (FTP) into your Xbox you will need a computer or iOS device see (option #5). We show several ways to transfer files to the Xbox starting with the simplest. Transferring files is everything, there's no need to install a homebrew app, once it's transferred it automatically installs as well. *internet is not required to FTP
Option #1 - Wired Xbox, Wired Computer: An Ethernet cable is simply any internet cable. As modern technology advances Wi-Fi (wireless signal) has replaced the need for these cables but they are still used. Setting up an FTP connection is easy, simply connect the Xbox and your computer/device to your the same router. *this is the same connection setup for streaming multimedia to the original Xbox via XBMC
Option #1
This is the most common connection, and it's also what is on the video tutorial. It shows both the computer and original Xbox making a wired connection to the same router, each using an Ethernet cable. In the photo (above & left) aside from the computer and Xbox you see a two boxes, this was an older setup. A more modern setup will have both the modem and router as one unit.
*if your computer is already connected to the modem/router via Wi-Fi than use option #2 below. (Internet is not required to FTP/transfer files)
Option #2 - Wired Xbox, Wireless Computer: A modern Cable or DSL modem does not require a router because they are one in the same. In this case your computer/device can access the modem/router via wireless. Then the only wired connection necessary is the Xbox to the modem/router. (Internet is not required to FTP/transfer files)
Option #2
Option #3 - Direct Connection, Xbox to Computer via Crossover Cable: A crossover cable or system link cable is used to make a direct connection from computer to Xbox. A crossover cable will not work with a modem/router. A crossover cable is NOT an ethernet or internet cable, although they look very similar. A crossover cable can also be used from Xbox to Xbox to transfer files or to play multi-player system-link Xbox games(Internet is not required to FTP/transfer files)

Option #4 - Make a Disc: You may be able to create a disc with the files you want to transfer. The Xbox is capable of ripping files from the disc to the hard drive. Your Xbox may look the same on the outside but it all depends on the type of DVD drive you have inside your Xbox. There are three types of DVD drives each with its share of pros and cons, Philips, Thompson and Samsung. CD-RW is recommended, it is the best recognized throughout all three drives.
Thomson Drive:
Will not read CD-R
Will only read some (generally expensive media) CD-RW
Reads all DVD-R/DVD-RWReads all DVD+R/DVD+RW
Philips Drive:
May or may not read CD-R (my Xbox has a Philips drive and reads a music CD that was burned on CD-R)
Will read some (generally expensive media) CD-RW
Reads all DVD-R/DVD-RW
Does not read DVD+R/DVD+RW
Samsung Drive:
Reads all CD-R and CD-RW
Reads all DVD-R/DVD-RW
Will not read DVD+R/CD+RW
Play Xbox One On Mac
UPDATE:
Option #5 - Wired Xbox, Wireless Apple iOS device (iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad)
This option should be a last resort since it's for the more computer savvy. It does not require a computer but it still requires a router/modem that gives out wireless/Wi-Fi signal. It's similar to option #2. Here's the iOS tutorial.
