Hi, need help with a project

Hi Everyone.

I'm a Gamecube fan since the release and lately, I decided to build a custom one. I have a couple of spare Gamecubes laying around so I though of a little project. My problem is i'm not sure if it is possible.

Basically, I want a gamecube that can read all region and is HDMI. I have a Xeno chip and i ordered the Pluto-II with GCvideo. I'm pretty good with a solder Iron so it should be no problem installing it. My questions are :
1) Is the Xeno mod compatible with the HDMI mod?
2)does the Xeno chip, installed on a Pal GC, allows to read all regions games (I don't care much for back up dvd)?
3) If I also wanted to add a SD card reader for games, would it be possible to add it on top of that (and still have an operational dvd drive)?

So, basically I don't know if i'm going to far with this, but I would love an HDMI/region free/sd Card+disc Gamecube. If there is a better way to go about it, I would love to know. :)

Thank you for your help, I've been reading this forum for a while now and it was time I get into the hard stuff.

Welcome!

1) Yes
2) Yes
3) SD Card reader via memory card slot? Sure, piece of cake. SD Card reader via DVD connector? Not easy at all but possible...

I'd just install the XenoGC, HDMI and buy/make a SDGecko
