CXBX-Reloaded Emulator Setup Tutorial & Best Configuration Guide | Play Xbox Games on Your PC
IMPORTANT NOTE: This emulator is NOT as easy to run or is as stable as the typical emulators I go over in my tutorials. You may not even be able to play the game you'd want to play and even if you can you may need VERY good hardware to play it smoothly.
This tutorial & guide shows step-by-step instructions for getting CXBX-Reloaded set up along with the controller, configuration at the end of the video while using Jet Set Radio Future as the game of example.
Compatible file extensions for the game include: .xbe

_______________________________Instructions – Required Software________________________________
All links are near the top or bottom of the description.
All software mentioned includes – 7-zip, AMD/Nvidia/Intel Graphics Drivers, C++, DirectX, Game file (in format of .xbe).
You can Google the download for a game file (or other appropriate format) if you choose the illegal route.
___________________________Instructions – Install & Run CXBX-Reloaded__________________________
A - Click the link for CXBX-Reloaded near the top of the description.
B - Once your download's finished, go to your downloads folder and unzip the file (tutorial for 7-zip also near the top of the description).
C - Open the emulator by double-clicking on the application.
________________________Instructions – Config & Play CXBX-Reloaded____________________________
A - If you want to further configure controls for a custom keyboard layout or a gampad, go to Settings - Config DirectInput Controller, click on "Click to configure all input..." and it'll run you through each button to press on your gamepad.
B - To open the game you want to play, go to File - Open xbe, select the game you want to play and press "Open". Your game should've started.
C - Press Alt+Enter to enter or exit full screen. Right now the emulator doesn't have very many stable configuration options that I've found so that's all for this tutorial.
