I hope you guys have a frightful night tonight and get lots of sweet treats. Get your Halloween spirit on by turning on the Pumpkin skin in FATXplorer.

Working on Explorer

October 30, 2010
by Eaton
I have now started work on the actual file explorer and file transfer code. It has been a long time since I have opened it up and I will need to recode most of it to implement new things. I saved this part for the end of the project because it is the most boring part to code and also the largest. I [...]

Download Packages Updated

October 26, 2010
by Eaton
I recently realized I could sign my assemblies without building them. So I took advantage of it and recreated the FATXplorer packages. My assemblies are now signed with my code signing key and a few documents and links have been put in as well. They are also in .zip archives now (and will be from [...]

Start Page!

October 26, 2010
by Eaton
The Start Page replaces the News Feed while incorporating elements of the News Feed into it. It was designed to be a small portal to the experience with a short and sweet welcome message. It will also display any issues that need to be addressed. (ex: Licensing status) Not much more to say about [...]

10/24 Update

October 24, 2010
by Eaton
It’s been a while so here’s a quick rundown on what is up. As I mentioned earlier, I began a quest to learn more about USB devices. There is a lot more that meets the eye and honestly, you need to know about this stuff if you are going to make a USB explorer. None of the information is public so [...]

Licensing Problems Addressed

by Eaton
A lot of people were having problems with the new licensing webpage designed for quick and easy activation code generation for v1.2. It has now been improved: -It will no longer report that you have already generated an activation code. The details you enter are now properly checked before the [...]

Extended USB Research

October 13, 2010
by Eaton
FATXplorer was already the first program to support USB devices, but I decided to take it one step further. I will not reveal many technical details as of now, but I found out what the certificate in the first data file protects and the discovery may lead to custom sized USBs on retail, if not [...]

NEW: Sector Tools

October 11, 2010
by Eaton
I got a feature request a while ago to add this. So I took a few hours to implement it. This little tool will dump the specified sector to a file and even write sectors back. The majority of users probably will not use it, but it will probably come in handy for the more technically literate [...]

10/10 Update

October 10, 2010
by Eaton
Been a while since the last solid update, so here is some new info. FATXplorer’s current build string is 2.0.0.5385 as of now. I have been working on a Security Sector editor. While completely useless for normal retail Xbox 360s, it is something I could not leave out. Most of the minor stuff is [...]

This is a fantastic deal for a program that could easily be sold for $50+. This is a savings of $10, which could be spent on some music [...]
