I've been posting multiple links to pictures and videos about the new remade XEB+ dashboard on a topic from @Berion
https://www.psx-place.com/threads/ps2-xmb-launcher-poc.34160/
To avoid overflowing it with almost-offtopic, I will post (the old ones and) the next ones in this separated thread.
The new dashboard uses the assets made by @Berion
It uses a custom fork of Enceladus (by DanielSantos) as engine.

WARNING:
This is still WIP and there's no ETA, except "SOON"

All the pictures and videos in this thread are from alpha versions and might look different on the final release.

XEB+ unlocks every language in every region. You can use French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Spanish and Dutch on JPN, RUS, CHN consoles and Japanese on USA, EUR ones.
OSDSYS (Japansese console):
XtremeEliteBoot+ (Japansese console):

The fade out effect:

Game's name identification and custom disc icon:

For the skeptical:

Here's a new video made by @Venão where he plays around a bit with the XtremeEliteBoot+ dashboard:

@nCadeRegal Since I am part of the drama, I want to clarify some things.

  1. HWNJ learned a lot since 2011/2012!
  2. He has something cool to be released!
  3. It got easier for other people to contribute to XEB+! The interface is in LUA, but the new LUA-Framework called "Enceladus" allows for C-Functions and probably ASM being implemented/used as well!
  4. This project is gonna be BIG/awesome for a lot of users especially!

You know it saddens me @Berion took a break from the scene recently. He is a God among men when it comes to interface design with homebrews. We miss you buddy.

I cannot resist much more long. I still will try limit myself but at least I feels much more fresh now thanks for internet detox. ^^

Oh, and thanks. ^^ I pushing HWNJ to releasing shit as quickly as possible. It will be released with 5 skins from me (Aurora, DESeR, Diorama, Korium and Omnis). Last two You can know what to expect. Aurora is heavily scripted, animated and hand painted. DESeR is stylized to PS2 DVR menu and Diorama stylised to Windows 11 iconography (but better I hope :D). That's all what I can tell for now.

Glad to see you're back to PSX-Place!
 
Feliz Navidad a todos y en especial a los desarrolladores.
Es una felicitación muy bonita y original pero, por el peso del ejecutable imagino que debe ser algo más que eso, ¿me equivoco?
¿Tiene alguna función más? quizá con alguna combinación de botones o algo?

Gracias de nuevo, sigo las novedades del XEB+ desde hace unos meses cuando descubrí el desarrollo y estoy deseando que salga.
Mil gracias por el trabajo, tiene muy buena pinta.

Primero que nada: Este es un foro de habla inglesa, así que por favor, si vas a hablar en Español, pon también una traducción al Inglés, aunque sea automática (Google Translator).
First of all: This is an English speaking forum, so, please, if you're going to write in Spanish, provide also an English translation, even if it is automatic (Google Translator).

Sí, tal como dije, tiene un easter egg. ¡A ver si lo descubres!
Yes, as I said, it has an easter egg. Let's see if you can find it!
 
Sorry, I can write in English without problems, but wrote in Spanish because you're Cuban. I should think about other people in the forum, sorry once again.

I discovered the disc detection system you were developing some weeks ago, using the konami code, but my optical drive is completely dead, so I can't test it.

Thanks anyway, I'll be waiting for XEB+.

Here's a theme that proves XtremeEliteBoot+ allows you to do whatever you want in a custom skin, even a complete (basic) PlayStation2 Homebrew game!:

Does the launcher use GSM acceleration? Does it support 720p/1080i resolutions?
