MC360 for XBMC Dashboard Coming Tuesday June 6th 2006

MC360 for XBMC Dashboard Coming Tuesday June 6th 2006
Published by forahobby on Sunday, June 04, 2006

It's now official, Tuesday 6th June 2006, a final release date for MC360, the X360 Reproduction skin for XboxMediaCenter(info) 2.0. The team has finalized a name, going with their original codename, 'Team Blackbolt', so this will be the team's collective name from now on.

DJB from XBOX-HQ who created Auto Installer Deluxe for the xbox homebrew scene has only just recently commented on how he has been waiting for this release for sometime now so he can add it to his most recent update pack.. I myself cant wait either.. This skin looks so professionally done im sure even M$ would have given them kudo's..

If you are after the easiest method to install the new skin and your a newbie go for AID3.. It will include the skin as soon as its available. If you have any probs manually installing the skin once it becomes available free free to use the VIP Services on the Xbox-Hq.Com website as we will do our best to support this new cool skin for Xbox Media Center. Feel free to ask for support in our normal forum areas too.. We always try to reply to each and every member..

MC360's release on Tuesday marks the first public beta for the skin. As some of the close followers to the forum topics will know, its been a long winded process but the team is very excited to offer this first glimpse at their hard work. Myself, (Blackbolt), have spent many hours working away on many things, most of my work was done in the first months of design, but at the moment the main coder, Los93soL has been the hardest working team member, much to the dismay of several forum users who challenged his knowledge of MC360's production a few days ago! Bet they feel silly now. Los93soL has created nearly every one of the 164,442 lines of code in the skin, and we still haven't finished our goal of the ultimate 360 gui reproduction. Then we have Donno, our super scripter who for the first time also created XMLs. Kotix (Orbs Creator) and Smokehead (PDM & PM2 Reloaded) also covered us at the read and then there was JMarshall, helping us with XBMC code as we went. We also had help from Deanparry with catching some bugs. Because its taken over 5 months to bring this skin to the public, I will be creating a Developers Diary sort of thing with quotes from MSN and IRC chats between the developers of the skin and screenshots of bugs we found and other cool things, one funny day was when we first did the Full screen vis and video behind the blades in the home screens, the conversations where much like "omfg, the vis r0x0rzzzz!!!111". So until Tuesday, the team will be hammering away at the skin polishing the edges and making sure everything is ready for Joe public to download and slam into his Xbox and get running, so till then, enjoy the wait! :D





Don't forget:

If your having probs installing anything onto your xbox including the new MC360 skin for XBMC come back to xbox-hq.com and we will help you through the process..
