Project: XMac360
I am currently working on a project I call XMac360 that will allow the 360 to run on a Mac computer. So far it is going well, but I do not have the proper hardware to dump the firmware from the 360. So if anyone has the firmware or a dump it, private me a link to it, and u will bring me one step closer to bringing every mac user the ability to play 360 games. Hopefully after perfect it i can figure out how to port it for PC.
IF YOU HAVE A DUMP OF IT PLZ POST IT OR SENT IT TO ME IN A PRIVATE!!!!!!!!!

Re: Project: XMac360
You can check EURASIA for dumps, just go there and sign up, and check downloads; 360 DUMPS.
You won't emulate a XB360 at full speed on a MAC. The Xbox360 is a PPC cored CPU, but not quite like the ones used in Apple products.
The XB360 is a 3-core CPU, at 3.2Ghz per core. YOU are going to need TWICE that, just for the overhead.
You need to know how memory is mapped with the unified architecture. You need a GPU with 10MB or better of EDRAM, AND a faster that 500Mhz.
Not saying it is NOT ever possible, but you need 18Ghz of CPU power to even begin thinking games will run at their full frame-rate. Even the XB1 emulators don't run well. Hell, the N64 emulators still can't play GoldenEye properly.

Re: Project: XMac360
I said, go to EURASIA, www.eurasia.nu
You are also in luck, they just dumped the Arcade edition's BIOS...
Alex (aka Serantes) has dumped the Chihiro Xbox (Arcade version of XBox) BIOS, check his blog post for more info.

I still contend, you won't be emulating the XB360 at full frame rate, if at all...

Re: Project: XMac360
No, you wont, and IF you HAVE come up with something revolutionary, I'd get in touch with a few software houses, they will want to meet you! But it aint gonna happen dude.
When the need arises, anything and everything becomes a hammer!
