Overview

"Cxbx-Reloaded began its life as a fork of Cxbx, with added 64-bit support. Work is currently underway to back-port some of the improvements made from Dxbx."

Can boot into a handful of games, but don't expect much to run yet.

This emulation software historically patches xbox executables (xbe's) to get them to run on the client (HLE approach); however, LLE-GPU support was introduced on April 1, 2018[1]. Many more titles can boot in-game now, albeit with very many issues.

Notes

  1. (The official website for this emulator was once designed as a compatibility list with additional categories in digits, letters and xdk-derived symbol class numbers. It was opened probably around the middle of 2016 but then ended in early 2017 due to mass spammed uploads of illegitimate xbe files of pirated games to the website and classifying them as 'playable' (When they were not!). For now till a re-design is done, it just redirects to the GitHub repository.)
