The Sega Chihiro is an arcade system based on the Xbox motherboard. If you have a 128MB RAM upgraded Xbox, you have the option to run a handful of supported Chihiro games. The rest of the games would require extra hardware add-on boards that have not been recreated for use on a Xbox.

Chihiro Fixes

Hardmodded Xbox

You have the option to flash a modified X2 5035 to your 1.0/1.1 TSOP or a modchip that can accept a 512kb BIOS in order to allow the Xbox to access the upper 64MB of RAM. If you have a debug bios, see the instructions in the next section.

  1. Download and extract Ernegien's Retail128Patch.zip.
  2. Use ppf-o-matic to patch a x2_5035_vOld_512k.bin file with the ppf file included in Ernegien's patch to generate a patched bin file. Check that the MD5 hash of the patched bin file matches 05E26F34954F674DD0DCDD86D4C9E490 and then flash it onto your 1.0/1.1 TSOP or 512kb+ modchip.
  3. Launch the desired Chihiro game's XBE.

Debug Bios

If you have a debug bios, you can simply place Ernegien's retail128.dxt from his Retail128Patch.zip into E:\dxt and reboot. You can then run your desired Chihiro game's XBE.

Softmodded Xbox

  1. Download and extract JayFoxRox's Chihiro Launcher XBE.
  2. Copy launch-chihiro-8.xbe into the folder of the Chihiro game you wish to launch.
  3. Copy the extracted Chihiro folder to the E: drive. It contains two empty folders, but they are required.
  4. Launch launch-chihiro-8.xbe. While the screen may be distorted or shifted, a countdown begins. Hold X until your game boots up. For Ghost Squad, you will need to hold both X and Y.
