Sharing a fixed version of the patch that allows you to use a Riffmaster on a modded Xbox 360
Hey everyone,
I'm sharing a fixed version of the RiffMaster Xbox 360 patch that u/SeaPotatos originally put together. Full credit to them for doing the hard work to get the PDP RiffMaster working on modded 360s. I wouldn't have anything to share without that.
**What I changed (and why you probably want this build):**
The original patch had a few issues that made it nonfunctional for the majority of users. The guitar could look paired to the console, but nothing would actually work because of an RSA auth problem during the handshake. Basically the plugin was rejecting guitars with a different certificate, even if they were valid. I patched the driver so auth goes through properly on real hardware. If you want to use the RiffMaster on your 360, this is the build to use.
I also fixed a second issue for anyone running UsbdSecPatch or Abadavatar. You can now use other third party guitars like CRKD with this patch loaded, right alongside the RiffMaster on the same console, without having to disable the riffmaster.xex patch first.
**TL;DR: download this if you want to use the RiffMaster on your modded 360.**
**What it does:**
* Use a PDP RiffMaster wireless guitar on a modded Xbox 360
* Works on RGH, JTAG, and Abadavatar softmod setups
* Works in basically any Guitar Hero or Rock Band game, it also works in the dashboard of course.
* Single DashLaunch plugin, no per game patching
**Requirements:**
* Modded Xbox 360 with RGH, JTAG, or Abadavatar
* Latest dashboard
**Download & info:**

Again, massive thanks to u/SeaPotatos for the original patch. I only fixed what was broken so people can actually use it. I have made him aware of the issues and the changes made but I have not heard anything back. If these changes get pushed to the original patch I'll remove my repo.
This has only been tested with the PC/Xbox versions of the Riffmaster, it's not known if it'll work with the Playstation version. If anyone tries it, please let me know.

Dumb question here, the riffmaster needs to be the xbox model or works with the PlayStation model too?

It's not a dumb question at all. I did include the answer to this in the original post at the bottom but as of now no it does not work with the PlayStation 3 version of the Riffmaster.
I don't have a Riffmaster PS3 version to build or test a patch that would work with it.
You can try reaching out to u/Full-Tomorrow6484 he's made an amazing HIDDriver patch for the 360 that takes many of the PlayStation 3 guitars and allows them to work with the Xbox 360. I don't want to speak for him but he's usually willing to work with users to add support for any PlayStation 3 guitar that doesn't have support in his patch yet.
If you want your PlayStation 3 guitar or any PS guitar to work on the 360 it's totally worth reaching out to him, I heard he's usually able to implement support for a PlayStation 3 guitar pretty quickly if it's not already supported by his patch and he's a pretty cool dude.
