Malware analysis tricks and 20 yrs of Original Xbox reverse engineering = LIVE dashboard skin switching! Built directly in the Theseus decomp, expanding the retail xboxdash.xbe. It dynamically loads colors from an .ini. Zero static patches, defaults perfectly to stock. :)

"You scene guys are just gross this is how you're supposed to do XYZ" Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was written. Fucking Jellyfin on an original Xbox.

"Theres no way you can get movies streaming from Jellyfin on an original Xbox" The last time someone said something like that to people, XBMC (Now Kodi) was built, which was forked into Plex and they're charging you $6/month to stream your own shit in your own house. Come at me bro, we ain't done

Figured out my issue, and got playback working. More screenshots of "WiiU Butter and Jelly". Not bad for a shelved (since christmas) project I completely forgot about.

Milenko @milenko.org · 06/09/2026

I found a Wii U Jellyfin client I was working on (current state is purely browsing) This is from like, Christmas time? I reused some of this code in Theseus lol

Second full homebrew using OXDK360 lmao My Quake DOS "Spasm" fork for the original Xbox, a few line changes and its clean with the use of LibSDLX360. One step closer to Brazilian Drug Dealer 3 X360 Completely built, compiled, and linked on a Mac against Xbox 360 SDK Libs.

Milenko @milenko.org · 19/08/2026

First full homebrew using OXDK360. SNES360 compiled and linked on macOS 26.6, no windows tooling. Fully linked against the Xbox 360 SDK.

Fallout 2 Original Xbox port, Two control modes now working with the controller (walking/running too). One: joystick as emulated mouse, cursor + A/B buttons + hot keys. Two: hybrid mode, closer to other RPGs, replacing mouse clicks where we can. Just a test, camera re-center still janky.

OXDK's been updated, new make files to assist in building libsdlx and RXDK-SDL2x on non-Windows machines and the libraries have been vendored in the git for easy maintenance. An "OXDK 2026 Summer Demo" was made as well using RXDK-SDL2 and XDK, all on a mac. OXDK Repo: github.com/MrMilenko/OXDK

Updates to xbMacson, the cross platform XBDM monitor for Xbox consoles written in Python. Fixed network timeouts, stabilized keep alive connections. Simplified output so it looks more like xbWatson. github.com/MrMilenko/xb...

So uh.. hey guys.. the thing I did with RexGlue is starting to work, and I'm scared. I'm not a 360 guy, did I break it??

Milenko @milenko.org · 18/03/2026

Hey @seamus.bsky.social 'member dis? Was bored last night and RE'd the rendering pipeline for Xbox Dashboard build 3424, from April 2001. This version used triangle strips instead of triangle lists, and had falloff shaders defined in the XAP scripts rather than the C++ engine.

Long live BlackStormX, the mod for tHc Lite/4920 Xbox Dashboard that rebuilt this aesthetic on modded Xbox's.

Hi everyone! I published v1 of the "History of UIX" to Github. I've started going through 20+ years of notes, rants and readme's to help build out a cohesive and educational story. One of my favorite parts is this snippet here: mrmilenko.github.io/UIX-History/

Milenko @milenko.org · 09/03/2026

hey @seamus.bsky.social I did something cursed. Dashboard running natively on macOS (I'm so sorry)

I was bored at work, wrapping things up to spend time with the family this Christmas, so I took some misc code from different homebrew projects and made you guys an Xbox-Scene Snow Globe. Here's to 2026!

Milenko @milenko.org · 22/07/2025

Fuck it, how bout the sequel? (It's broken. Don't judge me, I'm not a developer)

Milenko @milenko.org · 19/07/2025

Almost there. Graceful failures are success. This is my port of Fallout 1, running on an Xbox.

Milenko @milenko.org · 09/07/2025

🤨 Fuck it, grip it and rip it boys!

Throwback to that time I managed to make the perfect chili dogs.

This man is doing nothing more than trying to pass off a narrative and manipulate our community into believing his version of events.

Milenko @milenko.org · 01/07/2025

Milenko @milenko.org · 21/06/2025

That's enough playing with the renderer today. 😂

Milenko @milenko.org · 21/06/2025

I learned SO much about the Xbox and the dashes rendering engine today. Holy shit.

Milenko @milenko.org · 15/06/2025

lol.. holy shit I figured it out. Unofficial dash build, that didnt have live support, now communicating with the xonlinedash and Insignia.

Milenko @milenko.org · 14/06/2025

We're getting there!

Xbox Discord Rich Presence's xbdStats-go code/server binaries updated. You can now add a TMDB API Key and play around with IMDB movie ID's. This is just a fun little demo added to the code base. github.com/OfficialTeam...

030

Milenko @milenko.org · 27/05/2025

Added some fallback logic for certain Title ID's like homebrew (if you know any, please let me know.) And dynamic switching between Xbox and Xbox 360 for the "Now playing.." part of presence.

020

Milenko @milenko.org · 25/05/2025

@invoxiplaygames.uk I remembered what you had said about XBDM.. so I made the server implementation poll with the assumption that JRPC was installed as a plugin.

Milenko @milenko.org · 24/05/2025

Xbox 360 is hard yall...
