[Raptor]

More news about the upcoming iXtreme LT+ and AP2.5 from C4Eva via IRC-transcripts on #FW@EFnet:

[c4eva] testing backups on live!
[******] +c4eva: you had any hiccups along the way?
[c4eva] ******: not really
[*********] Morning c4eva, there's a title update for Black Ops, is this the kind of thing you'll log for new checks or do we assume that because a BO backup still works after the TU, that ap2.5 isn't active?
[c4eva] already checked bo update, looks good, clean xval
[*********] can i ask again about nfs?
[*********] is its playable with lt+?
[c4eva] *********:yes
[*********] C4eva the new lt+ will report like original fw against live checks?
[c4eva] *********: yes
[******] c4eva im sure you may have been asked before, but should we worry about back security? as in ap2.5 being implemented into older games and most anticipated, black ops?
[c4eva] ******: you will be protected with lt+
[******] @c4eva: c4eva, before upgrading to the new dash and put the new LT +, we must first put the stock fw, update the dash and then put the new lt?
[c4eva] ******: not required
[*****] So what I'm wondering is this: If the box is already flagged on new dash, IE not playing AP2.5 games, will the new upgrade to LT+ then enable playing these games again?
[c4eva] *****:yes
[*******] what's the drive firmware coded in anyway?
[*******] how do you code for it
[*******] asm?
[c4eva] yes
[*******] C4eva, will a new 0800 and SSv3 be required?
[c4eva] *******:yes, eventually
[******] c4eva: did sb from MS contacet you offering a job?
[c4eva] ******:no
[c4eva] fundamental changes were made to lt code to accomodate ap25 data, hence extra testing!
[*******] C4EVA, can the shitty kreon be used? using abgx360 gui to inject ssv3 in future.
[c4eva] *******:use kreon to dump game data only
[*********] @c4eva - will the new lt+ compatible with all slim drives available ATM?
[c4eva] *********:later
