Updated the installer to use the new Endgame exploit.

Big shout out to Markus Gaasedelen & shutterbug2000 without these two there would be no Endgame.
)
Legacy saves are still present.
(Under the legacy folder)
New look (colour scheme)
Removed the Virtual EEPROM from the softmod, this caused XBLA disc to stop functioning and it's not really required in this day and age.
(Even though it was disabled, due to me using partition14 for ShadowC it was failing :/)
Fixed the extras disc restore to factory config.
(was broken after an external commit)
Added some extra steps to change the HDD Key.
(Try and stop people changing the key after insignia setup)
Updated M8 bios to the patched 128MB variant for the extras disc TSOP flasher.
Updated the extras disc MS dash menu, now only install the retail dash.
Updated the preset date to 1/1/2022 - 1/1/9999
(never run out lol)
Updated the Hardmod dashloader to patch ind-bio5003 on load for XISO support.
( will also dismount the XISO like the softmod version )
Added the Patched ind-bio5003 shutdown button combo fixed, xbl enabled and ram fixed bios for the tsop flasher.
Changed the nuller to change the key to all 1s so 32 1s. This is so XBL Insignia when released works with your system/
( note: DLC will need to be resigned to the new key and some saves )
Changed how dual booting is done, its disabled by default but had to be changed due to how I do the NKPatcher patching on the xbox.
( a rework of some stuff in the Xbox Softmodding Tool Kit tool, also fixed the language set text showing when it shouldn't. )
Enabled Force VGA in the Video modes menu in NKPatcher Settings.
I now update the dashboard config.xml and skin files when updating the softmod.
( only if the files exist, so no more 1.1.5 when in fact its v1.1.6 eg... )
Updated the ernie font to patch the time to 2019
NOTE:
The above Dual Boot change will fix any issues where the DVD drive is finicky or the IDE cable is on its way out.
If you enable Dual Booting and have boot issues fix the DVD drive, IDE cable or disable it.
Change to how the Softmod is installed to the HDD from the extras disc to help combat corruption or bad disc reading.
Added the option to set the system language for the whole system to NKPatcher Settings.
( means you don't need the MSDash any more to do it )
Small update to address C partitions with less than 500MB of space.
( This would normally cause the Fix softmod loop, so now if there isn't enough space it will make a smaller shadowc.img file. )
Added XBMC-Emustation v1.2.015 to the extras disc.
Updated XBMC4Gamers to the latest build.
Dashloader updated with xInput. So now you can hold Start+Y to enter a recovery dashboard if you corrupt or damage the dashboard xbe file.
( you can also create a custom "same name as xbe".rec file with a custom recovery dash path. )
Version change to v1.1.5
Probably some other changes these have been sitting for the better part of 8 month.
If you have used the previous build disable Persistent Softmod mode:
Applications > NKPatcher Settings > 2. EEPROM > 2.1 Advanced Features > 2.1.3 Persistent Softmod > Disable
Updated XBMC4Gamers to the latest revision.
Fixed a type in the NKPatcher Settings menu.
I don't install the persistent softmod during the softmod, you can enable it via NKPatcher Setting if you want that extra layer of protection.
I don't install the systems kernel font during the softmod process, again like above you can enable it manually if you want.
( That includes all UX xbe files I use through out the hole package )
Updated the UnleashX dash on the extras disc with the fix.
The "Xbox Softmod Tool kit" now keeps your original eeprom.bin when you run the HDD Key Nuller.
( eeprom_original.bin )
Added User Interface X Dash to the extras disc
Now install the systems correct kernel font when softmodding the system
( this is due to the persistent softmod, if the generic one is installed it will hang the system if you cold boot an original game and press eject )
Updated the kernel update code, now will tell you if its installing the generic font
( if no compatible kernel is found )
Updated the TH4 saves, you now have 3 versions. NTSC, PAL and Region Free
Changed the Quick Update/Upgrade layout, you now just place the Update or Upgrade folder in E and Softreset.
( Dashloader was updated to work with these layouts )
Added the option to disable or enable "Persistent Softmod" mode to the new Advanced features menu in the EEPROM menu.
Added a modded 5960 dashboard to the extras disc.
( This is what's installed when you select 5960, the retail version is only used for the restore feature of the extras disc )
"Xbox Softmod Tool Kit" now has a visual GUI, so you know what's happening.
Extras Disc layout change, since I will be added emulators to the disc.
Reorganised the source layout, cleaner and more organised.
Changed all the .enabled files to .bin files, just sounds cleaner.
Updated the C Rescuedash config.xml
Simplified the "XBHDM Build" variant.
Removed the PBL from the rescuedash in the real c partition, its not needed.
Added Configmagic v1.6.1
( This has the fixed CRC and a other changes & additions )
Fixed Configmagics CRC checksum calculator.
( Wasn't an issue for versions under 1.6 this is why when updating the eeprom on a v1.6+ Xbox it would revert all settings )
Added support for "Xbox Softmodding Tool Kit" to revert the eeprom to a factory state, dump eeprom.bin in a decrypted state, write VideoFlags, AudioFlags, Language, TimeZoneStdname, TimeZoneDltname, TimeZoneStddate, TimeZoneDltdate and TimeZoneDltBias values to the EEPROM.
Added Video region changing to the new Advanced features menu for the EEPROM menu.
( Switch between NTSC or PAL )
Slight redesign of the Extras Disc skin, now shows available space for E, F & G partitions.
( Compiled as release instead of debug )
I now patch NKPatcher on the xbox for different partition types, this saves some space on C.
Updated "Xbox Softmod Tool Kit" to take some of the burden for copying files to places on the HDD during the softmod.
( Makes the install faster )
Added a messagebox to the "Update/Upgrade/Restore" function of the Extras disc about having a minimum of 30MB of free space on E.
( Hopefully people will realise you need space on E first, as there is no way to check if running from disc )
"Xbox Softmod Tool Kit" code optimisation and cleaning.
Added Null HDD Key to the "NKPatcher Settings > EEPROM > Advanced Features" menu
( This option will null the Xbox HDD key so you can now always recover or build a new HDD without the eeprom.bin )
Updated the "Update/Upgrade" function on the extras disc to use the Y partition for the softmod save files, this saves 7MB of space in case you're low on space on E.
Updated the Virtual EEPROM code to now do the CRC for the serial checksum, so now when virtual eeprom is enabled it will have "V-EEPROM ENB" as the serial number.
Fixed subnet mask for the static IPs, not sure why they were all 255.255.255.255
Added the choice to install older builds of UnleashX to the Extras Disc version of UnleashX
( install it as a dashboard and you got to Settings > Miscellaneous > Change UX Builds )
Slight update to NKPatcher Settings menus.
Disabled Virtual EEPROM writing, means you cant arse anything up with you're using it.
Other back-end changes that improve the functionality of the softmod and user experiences.
Probably other things I forgot to add.
