>> Latest updates about the upcoming iXtreme LT+ modified DVD FW from C4Eva on #FW@EFnet (IRC-transcripts):
[******] LT+ working great -- just played AC:B -- XVal still clean!
[c4eva] great to hear, ******!
[******] What fw is in testing atm c4eva? liteon, benq... ? all?
[c4eva] liteons, benqs!
[c4eva] just a few things more to test!
[*******] c4eva, have there been any changes to LT+ besides from the antipiracy stuff?
[c4eva] *******:yes, some major code changes!
[****] c4eva, does the new slims require additional hardware to flash?
[c4eva] ****:orig slim no
[*********] so if you are already banned and have lt+, you don't have to use ap2.5 ss right?
[c4eva] *********biggrin.gifo you want the ap25 backups to boot?
[c4eva] banned or not,if on latest dash,you need it
[****] what is the difference in this XBOX360 Fable.III.AP25.READNFO.XBOX360-iND and the one we already had, just says tested working
[******] the new rls contains the ap25 ss
[*********] [c4eva] once m$ have pushed the button on a slim 225 can you still flash the drive
[c4eva] *********:yes
[*********] [c4eva] so if m$ has pushed the button on your slim 0255 will that stop us reading the data eg key and so off if
[c4eva] *********:no
[******] +c4eva: 0225 locked flash... Is that stock? or does the lock happen when drive is detached/connected to a pc etc...?
[c4eva] ******:stock
[*****] c4eva: old games with wave 6 with ssv2 is it safe to play on LT+ ?
[c4eva] *****:yes,lt+ will protect you from ap25 violation ie wont happen
[c4eva] ssv2 to ssv3 was changed to ssv2+ap25 ss to accomodate more ap25 data if needed!
[******] c4eva: Is it possible for a your software to unlock flash for 0225? (i think i'm asking too much here :p)
[c4eva] lt+ will protect you from ap25 violation ie wont log any violation!
[******] is it possible they add additional ap checks?
[******] that the fw doesnt know how to handle
[******] or would that require another update
[c4eva] in all cases ,lt+ will protect you from ap25 violation
[c4eva] ******:more time will be spent on 0225 when I have it!
[*****] +c4eva is there a 0800 updated firmware in the making for our drives to rip games with our PC's?
[c4eva] *****:team is working on it
[*****] c4eva, how confident are you that you could do some good with the ps3fw ?
[c4eva] *****:confident
[*********] Will lt+ allow games to run, even without ssv3. Or will they need rerippin. i don't us xbl so stealth isn't an issue for me.
[c4eva] *********:you will need ap25 ss still!
[***] any news on doing the slim drives
[c4eva] 9504 first,0225 later!
[****] ****** how long have you been playing LT+ online?
[******] several hours
[*********] What I still don't understand though, will you be able to create 'ssv3' from games that aren't ap2.5 atm, such as Black Ops? I mean i'd rather have ssv3 BO if possible, just in case a TU makes it ap2.5, or am I talking shizzle?
[******] played NFS for a few hrs yesterday and today, and AC:B
[c4eva] *********:lt+ will protect you anyway from ap25 violation anyway!
[c4eva] i moved ssv3 into ap25 ss, left ssv2 alone!
[c4eva] ssv2+ap25ss=ssv3 basically
[******] c4eva, ssv3 will released into abgx 360 datebase?
[c4eva] new abgx will support ap25ss
[*********] is the beta testing going as planned?..ni hiccups right?
[*********] no^
[c4eva] *********:none
[*****] c4eva, does our profile gpd's have any info written to them that flags the 360 for a ban or is it pourely the 360's NAND only?
[*****] i mean prior lt+
[c4eva] *****:there are better people to ask than me about that, but nand is the main target
[******] when will come LT+?
[c4eva] more testing is being done across regions, then good to go!
[********] so whats with the ap2.5 copy of fableIII that just par'd
[c4eva] it has ap25 ss included and tested with lt+ i'd assume!
[*****] so this was real? [====

[c4eva] *****:yes
[*****] c4eva have you looked at the SOny Blu-ray drives enough (as in for a long enough time) to notice if Sony are a little less cautious than MS is with their DVD drives?
[c4eva] *****:i have looked at them, obviously they are more advanced!
