I`ve downloaded the next 3 Consoles of Creative (The monday i will test the 3); i`ve actualized all the packs w/ the latest versions od the software of creative that belongs to the X-Fi Go Pro console.

The Consoles are these:

mb_driver_audio_Recon3Di&ZxRi_1.03.24

Sound Blaster Acoustic Engine Pro v.1.02.06

Sound Blaster X-Fi Go Pro v.Win10.1.02.0082. This, i`ve downloaded from the official page of Creative, and in the page says is just for Windows 10; but i have my doubts (maybe works on other windows too). I`ve changed the "Support.cab" into the subfolder Setup, in Audio folder. I did this, because
the version of support.cab that owned the original for Windows 10; when looking inside with 7z; I have noticed that the file called "CTComp.dat" brings the following information added in the file.

[Hardware.Map10]
;; Pelican 2 THX
ID = 041E30DD
CompanyName = Creative
ProductName = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro
ProductVersion = 1.0
DefAppPath = \ Creative \ Sound Blaster X-Fi Go Pro
BillBoardType = 00
UninstallIcon = \ Bitmaps \ SBXFi.ico
FeatureSet = NIL
Readme = NIL
SpeakerPref =
DigitalOutput = NIL
CustomRDF = NIL
Manual = MANUAL_MAP_00
InstallQFE =
InstQFEB4Drvs =

[Hardware.Map11]
;; Pelican 2 SBX
ID = 041E3233
CompanyName = Creative
ProductName = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro
ProductVersion = 1.0
DefAppPath = \ Creative \ Sound Blaster X-Fi Go Pro
BillBoardType = 00
UninstallIcon = \ Bitmaps \ SBXFi.ico
FeatureSet = NIL
Readme = NIL
SpeakerPref =
DigitalOutput = NIL
CustomRDF = NIL
Manual = MANUAL_MAP_01
InstallQFE =
InstQFEB4Drvs =

[FeatureSet1]

[MANUAL_MAP_00]
manual1.chm = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro

[MANUAL_MAP_01]
manual2.chm = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro

[SPEAKERPREF_MAP_00]

[QFE_MAP_00]

[QFE_MAP_01]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then, it happens that when starting the setup.exe (inside the subfolder "Setup", inside the Audio folder); the installer starts, but when you next give it "it does not recognize the X-Fi Go Pro card as connected and sends a message as it will not install the card software.

Plus, I own the original CD of this card, (in fact I had this portable / handheld USB card in my computer), and I did the following.

Change the "support.cab" that comes with my CD and change it to the one with the Windows 10 version of the X-Fi Go Pro; and now when you run the setup.exe it no longer sends the message (even if it does not detect the connected card in the computer) and it seems that if you are going to let the software install the Go Pro.

Here I leave the info that brings the "support.cab" in your file called "CTComp.dat", and that I replaced by the one that had the version for Windows 10; as you will see, the info changes and can be the key for you to choose the option to install the Go Pro.

[Hardware.Map10]
ID = 00000000
CompanyName = Creative
ProductName = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro
ProductVersion = 1.0
DefAppPath = \ Creative \ Sound Blaster X-Fi Go Pro
BillBoardType = 00
UninstallIcon = \ Bitmaps \ SBXFi.ico
FeatureSet = NIL
Readme = NIL
SpeakerPref =
DigitalOutput = NIL
CustomRDF = NIL
Manual = MANUAL_MAP_00
InstallQFE =
InstQFEB4Drvs =

[FeatureSet1]

[MANUAL_MAP_00]
manual.chm = Sound Blaster X-Fi Go! Pro

[SPEAKERPREF_MAP_00]

[QFE_MAP_00]

[QFE_MAP_01]

Apart from this, this installer gives the option to choose what you want to install from the X-Fi or Pro software; It is not like others that only have the option "Full installation".

SetupTypes = FULL, CUSTOM, DRIVERS_ONLY
MaintTypes = ADD, REMOVE, REPAIR, REMOVE_ALL

This is a point in favor, because we can choose what to install at the time.

Now, I'm going to upload this version to my mediafire, and I want you to take a look at it; If you think you can remove something that you will not need, or any improvement that you see fit and is favorable to enhance the software of this card ........ You will always be welcome, and apart you will benefit us. What do you think @alanfox2000 ?.

Note: This console is a latest version of the console included in the Gamespirit MODS, just change the name of the folder (EntCon), and the name of the main executable; called "EntC.exe; the version is this:

SoftwareSubPath = Entertainment Console
SoftwareID = ENTERTAINMENT_CONSOLE
SoftwareVersion = 3.01.02
SoftwareFriendlyName = Creative Entertainment Console

And the used in the Gamespirit Mods was 2.56, if I remember correctly.

I wait your answer.

Here`s the link to the X-Fi Go Pro in my Mediafire:

Can anyone tell clear difference between two Dolby UWP Apps versions

2.x.xxx.x - What are this version, why we use this versions, if this versions & windows store versions are same
2.xxxx.xxx.x - This are Windows Store Dolby UWP Apps, full stable versions

Why New APO Driver v2.0.6 has options to select between this two Dolby UWP versions, both are same, then why to implement test versions in APO Driver

Answer this, I'am confused to decide between this two versions, better versions should be implemented in APO Driver, to get rid of confusions

One more thing, I think if UWP .NET Frameworks are included In APO Driver with Dolby UWP Driver selection option, it will solve many problems

Some people gets confused about this UWP .NET Frameworks, if implemented in APO Driver, it will be easy for people

Only Windows Store Dolby UWP version drivers with UWP .NET Frameworks should be in apo driver

Please anyone Answer this above question, I'am unable to decide

 

[prettyclaire82]

As above, I have been using the APO driver and it would be nice if the UWP .Net Frameworks were auto installed, it makes it easier for beginners to install the UWP apps like the Dolby and DTS ones. Props to making it though.

I want to make a uwp runtime repack.
But I could not get the download link of all runtime from ms store. M$ store would not let you download if your PC have installed the runtimes. And win10 don't let me uninstall all these runtimes so I cannot get all runtime appx files.

 

[prettyclaire82]

https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/3176696/c-runtime-framework-packages-for-desktop-bridge

Is this related to the UWP runtimes?

Just part of these runtime, not all of them.
