XBE Shortcut Maker is a PC program used to generate an XBE shortcut, similar to a .lnk file on PC. The most common use for this is to install your dashboard somewhere besides the C: drive, and just have a single XBE shortcut on the C: drive which points to the dashboard, or to launch XBMC/CoinOPS.

Note that if you are redirecting the dashboard that loads up on boot, if something goes wrong and you are on a softmod, you will need to hook your hard drive up to a PC and use an EEPROM backup to fix it. If you are on a hardmod, you can use an installer disc such as Hexen to fix it.

Making a Shortcut

Upon launching the program, the parameter fields will be automatically filled with a shortcut to XBMC installed in the E:\apps\ folder. You can change the fields as desired and add your own custom image to it. **If you are redirecting your dashboard, it is highly recommended to back up the old dashboard XBE in case something goes wrong**.

  • Target Path**: The XBE you want the shortcut to launch
  • Title Name: The name displayed if the shortcut is shown in a menu (such as a games list)
  • Title ID: The ID of the game. This only needs to be changed to something unique if it will be in a folder that has two XBEs with the same title ID (such as if you had Halo 2 and Halo 2: Custom Edition mods next to each other)
  • Default title image: The shortcut will use whatever your dashboard's default image is for an app/game when viewed in a menu
  • Custom title image: Allows you to choose an image to be displayed when viewed in a menu
  • Create Shortcut: Prompts you for a name to save the shortcut. If you are redirecting the dashboard at bootup, ensure that you name it the same as whatever XBE is in your C drive (such as evoxdash.xbe).
