Xbox:EvolutionX

The EvolutionX dashboard (not to be confused with the EvoX BIOS) is the second most popular dashboard choice. One feature that sets it apart from other dashboards is it's ability to flash your modchip or TSOP BIOS straight from the dash itself.

The latest version is 3935.

Launch DVD
Launches the inserted DVD or game. If the text in the upper right corner reads "No Disc", the disc is not being detected.

Trainers
This menu allows you to activate cheats inside of trainers. You can do this by selecting the desired game, changing the options, and pressing Save and Exit. The next time the game is started, the cheat(s) will be applied. You can add more trainers by moving the respective trainer files (usually ETM or XBTF, sometimes other files included) into the "Trainers" folder in the location where the EvolutionX dashboard is installed.

MS Dashboard
Launches the Microsoft dashboard.

Reboot / Power Off
Reboots your system or powers it off.

Settings
Here you can change your network settings, change your game region, and various other settings. You can enable In-Game Reset (IGR) here, which will allow you to reboot your console by pressing LT+RT+BACK+BLACK. Ensure you press "Save and Exit" at the bottom to save changed settings, instead of just pressing B to exit. Aside from network settings, most settings will require a reboot to take effect.

Flash BIOS
It is recommended not to select this unless you know what you are doing. Here you can flash your modchip or TSOP BIOS. By default, three BIOS files will appear, which are variants of EvoX M7. You can add a BIOS to flash by placing the BIOS file inside of the "Bios" folder in the location where the EvolutionX dashboard is installed.

Backup
Selecting this will backup of your EEPROM, on-board Bios, HDD Password, and HDD config and place it in `C:\Backup\`. If your dashboard is not installed on the C: drive, it may not work. It is highly recommended to FTP this backup folder to your PC for safe keeping.

Skins
Here you can select different skins for your dashboard. Skins can be downloaded and placed in the "Skins" folder in the location where the EvolutionX dashboard is installed.

Launch Menu
The layout of everything will vary based on your chosen skin. These are the defaults.

Games
Here your games will be listed, from which you can launch them. It will search in E:\Games\, and if enabled, F:\Games\ and G:\Games\. If your F or G drive does not appear on the left hand side on the main menu, they are not being detected and you may need to change the setting under System Utils to enable the drives, or you may need to flash a new BIOS (for modchips or TSOPs).

Apps
Here your applications will be listed, from which you can launch them. It will search in E:\Apps\, and if enabled, F:\Apps\ and G:\Apps\. If your F or G drive does not appear on the left hand side on the main menu, they are not being detected and you may need to change the setting under System Utils to enable the drives, or you may need to flash a new BIOS (for modchips or TSOPs).

Modifying the Menu
You can add, remove, or move menu options by modifying the evox.ini located in the dashboard installation directory, and scrolling down to the [Menu] section. The directory structure is pretty self explanatory, and you can add folders manually in any spot in the hierarchy. Below is an example to make a folder called "Homebrew Games" in the Games directory which contains the games inside the folder `G:\HOMEBREW\`.

Section "Homebrew Games" {       AutoAddItem "g:\HOMEBREW\" SortAll }
