New retail games that need patching
>> HSDEMONZ (Xbox-Scene Forum Head-Moderator) warned me that several new games need patching before you can run them from HD (or backup them).

Well... a number of new games being released lately have changed the placement of their MEDIA descriptor in the DEFAULT.XBE files of the game! Current Titles affected so far:
All-Star Baseball 2003
World Series Baseball 2004
High Heat Baseball 2004
Rayman3
... all need to be patched. Owners of these games will need to PATCH these games.. so that they can be properly backed up! This is the same mess that ENIGMAH BETA and XTENDER users faced in the beginning. Now ALL Modchip users will need to apply some sort of patch to make these titles WORK! (that is.. until a new BIOS is release.. that fixes this in memory!)
Until then.. we have the fine research conducted by XEERO of XBOX-SCENE. He did the detective work.. and was the first to post details of why these 4 games needed patches!
He learned that you need to change a string in the original DEFAULT.XBE (the mediaflag moved to a new location , that's why current bioses don't patch it in memory).
From:
00 74 4B E8 CA FD FF FF 85 C0 7D 06 33 C0 50 50 EB 44 F6 05
To
00 74 4B E8 CA FD FF FF 85 C0 EB 06 33 C0 50 50 EB 44 F6 05
and the above 4 games would function properly as a backup from disc or hd!
