Important Patreon Update

Hi all!

It's been a great 2 years, hasn't it?
I've passed the retail mode emulation torch over to SirMangler and TRW as I step away from Retail Mode emulation for good.

Over the coming weeks / months, this Patreon will be changed to support / fund my game development for Tranquil Tails, where all Patreon supporters will get access to early Alpha & Beta builds of the game in Xbox Retail Mode, PC and Dev Mode!

I'd like to take a moment to thank each and every one of yo...

So I hear you want retail emulators....

Well I'm happy to provide!

You guys know the score by now, hit me up in DMs with your Xbox email(s) and I'll add you to the whitelist!

Right now I have to manually edit every single app and upload one by one, it sucks, and it takes fucking ages, but it's possible to do, and I'm going to do it.

There are 3 apps up right now, please DM me if you want them!

Update 26th April

Retail is still possible, for those wondering, but here's the new situation:

- Public apps are (currently) dead, and manual checks are in place. Private apps are seemingly okay for the time being, which is how the Patreon apps always operated.

- I'm currently doing college finals, very stressed, and very starved for time. I've a project due May 14th, and cannot put any focus into retail mode apps at this time.

Update

I'm not done... ;)

The End.

Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you for your undying support the past 2 years. 

You've all been an absolutely fantastic community to work with and that means so much to me. Your support has helped developers, and especially myself, and that means the world to me.

From now on, I'll be focusing on dev mode and dev mode builds, and will no longer be uploading retail apps, or doing whitelists, you can see why in the screenshot above, once the apps are taken d...

A quick (temp) update.

Hey everyone,

Never had to do one of these, and hopefully won't again, but here's an update.
Last weekend, a family member passed away, in that time, Visa implemented blocks on purchasing anything outside of the country, making it more difficult to get Microsoft accounts, especially to continue these uploads.

I've become stressed, having to juggle these re-uploads, college, my game development, and so, so much more. So I took a break, before I snap. 

Apps will c...

Xbox app archive

Hey all (Scott here),

There's an archive of all the apps I've ever uploaded to retail mode here;
Apps Backup - Google Drive
It contains multiple versions of some apps as well.

You can use these in dev mode. 

Custom RetroArch builds

Would you like to be able to request custom RetroArch builds?
These builds can have a specific set of cores that you want, and remove the others you don't want. It can also have a custom config to accompany it.

Note: I will not ever provide ROMs or BIOS files with these builds.
