Its on my list of things to do, it will most likely come as a separate drive image. One image for horizontal, and one image for vertical.

I'll do that just for you
.Just released 1.2. Right now only the update package is available. ( For updating 1.0 to 1.2 ). I'll be building a new image soon. You can find the download link on the 1st post.
Change Log:
Fixed periods (.) in game folder names.
Round robin menu!
USB game boot option.
Drop to a Command Prompt option.
Added support for future game release dependencies.
Other random menu improvements...
Everything is pretty much self explanatory except the "USB game boot option."
This is an option I mainly implemented for game testing purposes, but you guys may find it useful or interesting too. Basically, you can place a single game on the root of a flash drive. Then plug the flash drive into the TypeX2 and press "Button E" ( Medium Kick ) to launch the game.
Games run surprisingly well off a quality thumbdrive. I was testing with a 10GB "BlazBlue game" and the only noticeable difference between playing off a thumb drive and my SSD, was about an extra second to load between screen changes. Its probably the same experience as if you where playing the game on a 5400RPM or maybe even 7200RPM hard drive.

Ok, I found a guy who has some X2 systems for sale, he has 205A, 208A and 209A systems.
best guess would be to pick the 208A as this seems to be the most common used system and should have good compatibility with all games?
(As long as it has a 7900GS that is)

Hmm, I'll try to take a look and see.Awesome job Niko

Either 208A or 209A would be fine. Only one that had compatibility issues was 207A and possibly earlier.
I'll make sure to release V1.3 the day after your tutorial comes outThanks for releasing the update before I created my tutorial. Now I have to go back and rewrite it...

Ok guys, here is the written form of the instructions with an FAQ section. I hope to get the video done later tonight or tomorrow:
All credits go to Niko and the DPFDumps team!!!
Requirements/ Needs:
Q: Seriously, where do I get games?
A: Again, can't give you a specific place to get them, but any links you find online for TT
2 games should work just fine.
Q: Does the TTX Multigame support TATE (Vertical) mode?
A: Not at this time, currently the TTX Multigame only supports YOKO (horizontal). However, a game that normally plays in TATE will continue to work in TATE when launched.
Q: Does the TTX Multigame support 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios?
A: Actually, the TTX Multigame runs normally at 4:3. You can set your monitor to stretch the image if you would like.
Q: What is the resolution of the TTX Multigame?
A: The TTX Multigame runs at 480p resolution.
Q: Since it is 480p, does that mean my games will run at 480p?
A: No, this is based on your dip switch settings. If you have them set for 720p then your games will run at 720p while the TTX Multigame will still run at 480p.
Q: Does the TTX Multigame support overscan for CRT monitors?
A: Yes, to switch between the LCD and CRT modes you must open the Settings Menu by pressing the "B" button (medium punch) on your joystick or use a PS/2 keyboard and press the "F2" key.
Q: I have seen that one can add sample images for each game in the TTX Multigame, how can I do this?
A: You need to do the following:
Q: What if I don't have a sample image for one of my games? Is it the end of the world?
A: Not at all, the area the image would have been will be replaced with a default image.
Q: I've started a game and want to switch to another game, how do I get back to the TTX Multigame Menu?
A: Enter the Settings Menu of the game that you are currently in and exit out of the Settings Menu. Most games quit completely and will send you back to the TTX Multigame Menu. However, there are a few games that will just restart. In this case, you must turn OFF and ON your hardware.
Q: Is there a way I can make the hardware boot straight to a game after a certain amount of time?
A: Yes, this is possible. Highlight the game you want to set to Autoboot and press the "D" button (light kick) on your joystick or use a PS/2 keyboard and press the "F1" key. You will see a message stating "Autoboot: " and the name of the game that is set to Autoboot. To change how much time must pass before the game launches, you must go to the Settings Menu. Once the system detects an idle state for the amount of time that was set in the Settings Menu, it will automatically launch the game.
Q: Actually, I realized I hate this game. How do I stop it from Autobooting?
A: Go back to the TTX Multigame Menu, highlight the game that is set to autoboot and press the "D" button (light kick) on your joystick or use a PS/2 keyboard and press the "F1" key.
Q: Is it possible to boot games from the USB port?
A: Yes, make sure that drive you will be using is formatted the NTFS or FAT32 filesystem. Copy the game files to the root of the USB drive and NOT in to a folder. Plug the drive in to your hardware and boot the system. Once you are at the TTX Multigame Menu click the "E" button (medium kick) to boot the game in your USB drive.
Q: Is there anyway to test certain software components?
A: Yes, you can use the command prompt. To access this, press the "E" button (medium kick) to launch command prompt.
Q: Sometimes my hardware just turns off and restarts. What is going on here?
A: This is an issue that is being looked in to. It seems that it has something to do with the ttxshell. This seems to happen when a game crashes or if you quit a game and start another game instantly after the game you just quit. The system thinks the game failed and reboots. One thing to do to prevent this is to wait a little while after quitting a game before starting another game.
Q: So I updated my drive and now whenever I exit a game, I get an error on the screen telling me that "ttxshell.exe" is trying to run. What is going on?
A: What might have happened is that the OS is thinking that these files came from someplace else and doesn't trust them. Plug the hard drive back in to your computer and navigate to the "TypeXmulti" folder that you placed all of the update files. Right click on each file and go to "Properties". At the bottom of the Properties window, there will be a checkbox labeled "Unblock". Click the checkbox to check it, click "Apply", and click "Ok". The file should now be trusted. Once you have done this to all the updated files, you should not get this issue anymore.

- Open the picture in an image editing program and resize it to 320x240 pixels, 72 dpi.
- Save the image as a "PNG" file with the name "gameimg.png" (case sensitive of course).
- Place the image file in the folder of the game it is for on the TTX Multigame hard drive.

Glad I could help man. This was my actual intention, to make the instructions in very basic english and detailed, so when put in to Google Translate, it would be easy to understand for anyone. Glad it's working!
