You dont want to listen about bugs or insert stuff for people into mame so I do, so they can play it on mame for there xbox....and give BP the credit for it
All the other crap you said aside, there is the kicker.
Think about it everyone.
If the developers BP is "adopting" from had not worked on bringing those apps to the Xbox in the first place, then there would be almost nothing new for BP to "insert" into his ConOPS app for you in this new version of his. The emus under that hood were all given by other coders. Some were out of date, but FBL was still being worked on. No dev will put up with that kind of thing at this point. And thats how its going to be now, so make the best of it BP lovers.
There will be no more ConOPS updates worth a damn because no one is going to work on sacrificing all their time for a thief. Now that all the talent is opting out, Britney will tinker around with a few minimal changes, slap a fancy name on ConOPS, and release a "new build" every week or two. Thats all you've got to look forward to now people. The scene will indeed suffer due to one man's arrogance and selfishness.
It seems clear to me that BP doesnt know how to add updates like the ones hes "inserting" into his app with command launching. He doesn't take it well when other devs make gracious contributions for the scene. Either you are contributing to BP first, or you are his enemy. He acts like he owns the Xbox community all to himself.
Well, now you do BP. Go for it. Best of luck to you. CoinOPS itself was even held back by your reputation. I saw so many people bashing you and I could not figure it out. All I thought you were trying to do was give to the users and I thought the scene was benefitting from it. Boy how wrong I realize I was now. You probably would have received more help moving ConOPS forward the right way had you demonstrated a bit of decency towards other people.
I never once saw nes6502 trying to rip off any code from your Coinops experiment. Nor has he trolled your threads looking to advertise his works either. The same goes for every other developer out there. For every little thing you gave the scene you killed so much more that we could have had with your ways.
I think you misdirect my help talk about completely useless and often incorrect rubbish and complian about me way way to much never based on any facts about what I say and when you do you dont apoligise when your wrong you just defend it with im a pick. So I think you guys are the pricks whos only defense is attack and not with your product. So yes we both agree I think you guys have buggy as shit emus and selfcentered arseholes
the hangeron newbes are just ignorant IMO and that is my honest thoughts. you guys have put your thoughts so these are my honest thoughts. (those thoughts are mainly for people like cba etc but do go out to the some others who arnt newbees that for sure) Good Day brothersIf their emus are so buggy and terrible, why are you stealing their code then?
Whats the motivation for that? Why add games into your app that you dont care about? You dont use FBL or any other emulator, yet you want them all under an app with you attached as the head of it. 
You are a simple piece of work to figure out. You just want all the people out there to credit you for other people's hard work. That does the XBox users you need no good at all in the end. They will soon find that out the hard way. -
This is the part where I must give a huge THANK YOU to both Nes6502 for porting FBL and Kenshiro too for keeping FBA XXX Pro 1.29c going so long. i would be very sad to see you both go. i wish there was a way to change that, but I do understand well enough why things look grim for the scene.
thanks Nes for creating an app that is the most up to date emulator the xbox has. thanks kenshiro for contributing to it graciously and doing a great job with everything when you were running fba xxx pro.
same thanks also for xport, gogo ackman, iq_132, +T+, elsemi, bendermike, $HK, all the skinners, and anyone else I left out. It was hugely appreciated.

You have driven off nes6502 and who knows how many other really talented coders. That's what you wanted. You wanted all the attention for yourself. You had trolled other threads even before nes6502 started FBL. You like trying to bully and rattle others, but don't like it when it backfires on you. It really has this time.
So you don't use other emulators? Is that right? Instead you only use other emulator sources under yours, not the emulators themselves.
That means you do use other emulators while pretending they're your work. yeah. Whats with this word "passionate?" Is that what you felt as you were sitting back watching nes6502 get all that great feedback, gratitude, and attention for trying to keep the Xbox scene alive with the only new app we've seen developed in years? He contributed a phenomenal update to us that I didnt even get a chance to thank him for before you stole it. Your "passion" is for people to kiss your ass and you will steal and step over people to satisfy that.
I feel nothing but disappointment as i respond to you. In reality, I feel sorry for the users and other developers who will suffer because of your actions when all is said and done. You have never learned to control yourself and not enough people were around to give you any reason to change. if users want to express their approval of the way you do things, then so be it. I'd let you have the Xbox scene too. Users who cant see this are not worth taking the time to sacrifice so much of one's life to.
Let's see you keep the Xbox Scene going Mr. VIP. You are better than everyone else remember? You are the "great" BP. So keep the scene from being stagnant like you've done with ConOPS. After mulling that one over for a bit, I wish you luck with that. I wont be supporting you EVER, but there are others you know of who are still devoted to you, over the Xbox scene itself.
By the way, that nice guy "I'm so innocent act" is so old now. just so you know.
over and out.

its so easy to stop people talking as well by saying they are playing my game........its fun isnt it
good luck nes6502
it was taken 100 percent from FinalBurn1.1 sources (stated a few times its finished, I could easily add it to the other core in FinalBurn1.1 as it plays pdrift alot better as you can see gear changes and no wierd banking glitches) as you made it very easy to write a commandline launcher as you will know....it could be patched into xbmc or anything with ease...Anyways I do wish you the best and id say dont release sources for any new stuff you dont like anything being used by looks......others will complain I wont
Hey what you do really is up to you nes6502 as shown we have no connection just maybe personal hate...but no links in dev world
Take care and happy new year
the difference is, it was you asking nes6502 to make some real improvements to your app just a short while ago. Now you go and steal his work. You deprived the scene of some good benefits with your selfish immaturity BP. You care about keeping a mass of users around who will worship you out of blind ignorance. How long will that last?
You talk about other people having no skill, but you don't have the skill to keep the Xbox Scene alive. Not by yourself. Especially considering how you had to steal and beg others to make real improvements to your stagnant app. ConOPS should have been laid to rest long ago. At this point, it exists as a tool for you to get your ego stroked for minimal efforts on your end.
You are still around even though you claim to be "gone." The dead horse was dragged over the finish line for as far as you could take it long ago. iq_132 has made all the meaningful improvements recently. I salute him out of sincere gratitude for doing what he did for you, but he really did it for the scene like the class act that he is.
This is really a shame for all the people who don't realize how much we're losing in the end. Every time there is a thread like this, you are always involved BritneysPAIRS. You will continue this perpetually because it makes you feel relevant. As if.
Thanks for driving off our talent.
-
oh well its your loss you wont be playing alot of games I do and most others do
Oh I play plenty of games. We all do.
We can already play nearly all of the games you're adding under your hood and trying to get credited for someday. Have fun with the attention.
-
Again, MAME on the Xbox (and ConOPs) really needs a core update more than anything else. You are skilled remember? We aren't. So when will you get started on that core update? Hopefully that takes priority for you when you do your next underground release. Go ahead and close this thread. When the going gets tough....
Stop with the PR moves at this point already. We see through it. Unlike you being gone for good, this here is for certain: I wont ever be downloading your build. When you look at your stats, you should scratch one off the tally for sure. I already have all the apps from their original authors just a few extra button presses away. Who knows what else FBL, or other projects could have offered the scene had it not been for your lack of decency.
-
100 percent bull I only worked with Final Burn code as it was obsolete get over it....my code runs the xbe named in romstatus.xml and adds the game.txt file...when Final Burn or Final Burn Legends runs one of its xbes it looks for this name in game.txt and runs it.........so I produced a commandline launcher...
So
***100 percent total crap i used FBL *****(but yes its a quick easy patch to add it for sure but I dont see any point for it, its still in progress and in the readme it asked not to do it)
******Final Burn was offically discontinued****** and its all I ever used as its all I wanted
So in all anyone that claims anything else is talking 100percent crap and if they find anything to prove it wrong post it here that will be funny im sure as I know exactly whats in it..............these people guess or are ignorant and mostly just premadonas.....
Sure BP. Whoops. I meant M.I.A. Whatever you say. Cut the PR facade already.
You know what the right thing to do for the scene is, but you always find a way to put yourself first. Some people just can't see that. All they see are your incremental updates comprised of work either done mostly by others or taken from others, with a fancy title attached to it. If you worked on CoinOPS and got help from the other developers who offered it or gave you their consent to add their work, that is 100% fine. But that isn't the whole story with you and you know it.
It's funny how its always you who trolls the threads made by other developers who are trying to produce something good for XBox users. It's always you who has issues with other developers or talking down to users who don't kiss your rear end. You seek to draw all kinds of attention to yourself, be it negative or positive. You NEED this and you know it.
Your drama has hurt the scene dude. I used to be a defender and a believer and I wanted people to just leave you be so you could keep your apps going. Then I saw everything for what it truly was. Even how stagnant ConOpS is without willing or unwilling contributors. People can wish for you to hang around and beg for more of your antics, but I will not. You've done more harm to us than good at this point. All you had to do was show a bit more decency and respect to other developers. They are the ones who keep the XBox Scene up and going. i hope you havent set that back or destroyed it this time.
MAME on the Xbox (and ConOPs) really needs a core update more than anything else. You are skilled remember? We aren't. So when will you get started on that core update? Hopefully that takes priority for you when you do your next underground release. Go ahead and close this thread. When the going gets tough....

deadcalm1 you gotta be kidding, nes said he won't continue working on it and released sources ages ago. BP only used abandoned Final Burn sources not FBL.
That's what he's claiming now, that he "only used Final Burn sources." The FBL core was definitely in there if you bothered paying attention to the original posts in these topics. You're basically saying good riddance to a great developer like nes6502, who clearly expressed his disapproval of BP's move. So instead, BP's made it so the "lowly users" like us can insert all the cores ourselves easily. All under his app.
You don't see other devs going about things in this manner in any way, whether its just to steal attention or the actual improvements others bring to their own apps. Most other devs know not to put their personal glory ahead of other talented contributors. They don't usually trample over each other with so much disrespect.
Also 95% of all Xbox homebrew is compiled with stolen SDK so we are all in big pirate ship.Though there is definitely stolen SDK involved in all XBox homebrew, proper protocol was established long ago among the people who brought these apps to you and I with that stolen SDK. That counts for a great deal here. Now I guess we will all be back to being Saints again. Because why should any developer with any talent bother working on the Xbox, when some vulture is just waiting in the wings to snatch their contribution? All the while not even given them any acknowledgment.
It will be very interesting to see how things go. Good luck to all.

also to all the idots that didnt want it ended this way, I wish you would have played fair I now have 2 long term people that are totaly sick of the scene and the way you guys played it and said f*** all of them just release it...ill be the 3rd to leave now and I agree with them to the others that enjoy life as it is thanks alot its been a wild ride id recommend SHOWCASE 2 its got alot of peoples work in it from over many years......id say it will remain the benchmark mame for the xbox (I hope im wrong but its pretty good anyways)
And a final Peace to all enjoy 2010
This is all BS from you. If anything, YOU are the reason that people are leaving the scene BritneysPAIRS, aka mister "not so" M.I.A. You played this your way and now you dont wanna take the heat you brought onto yourself.
The scene is deeply hurt by your jealousy, envy, and lack of consideration for the other contributors to the Xbox Scene. Homebrew users will feel the pain of this, whether you stayed around tinkering with ConOps or not. Losing nes6502 and people of his stature is all because of what you did. It's not because of users telling you how poor your tactics have been.
You stole the work of a top quality dev who was not completely finished with his project yet. You didn't even follow his requests he laid out for those wishing to build onto it after he was done. You didn't release it on Xbins, through 1emu, or Xbox scene. You didn't respect his wishes in any way whatsoever. You just inserted his freshly ported core and gave it to a fanboy of yours to distribute underground for you underhandedly. That low-level tactic is why devs are leaving.
And I don't blame them. I blame you.
-
love it when new people tell me about how things are and used to be as if they actually know and i actually dont know....it great to see the passion that makes them actually know what they havent been around for
at least one person finds it amusingwonder if you know what happened to Kennedy?
So my account date tells you how long I've been around?
You agreed with Searius. He says he's used MAME for years (and I believe him on that), even though his account was made here in '08. I'm not new. I've been around for quite a while. Long enough to finally see that everything people said about you was true. You see that this topic is meant to be a petition for a core update. I ask again, why have you not done one for as long as you've had MAME all to yourself? You see Cbagy and most people here hoping someone does it, but why can't you do it? Oh that's right, youve done all you can do with CoinOps.
Out of respect for +T+ as a developer, I won't go any further with you. In the end, I give my support to an update of Xbox MAME in the end CBagy. I support your petition.

Sorry I thought this was post about mame and not about the Scene in general. I do like to condone anyone's efforts to keep mame going across multiple platforms and xbox obvioulsy, and I don't care how big/small a contribution might be it should be commended in my view. So like I said earlier I commend the intentions of this post to propose more mame goodness - be it from anyone, they get my respect. That's all.
The people who create and develop these emulators should get their credit too. Just as the makers of the games got their credit when the games were released years ago -- through sales, user reviews, and critical acclaim. Nobody does anything for free, even if it is "free" for me or you. If someone worked a 9 to 5 making something I had no interest in buying or using, I'd still say they should get their due credit/compensation for it. If they don't or someone steals their work and passes it off as theirs indirectly, then the result is usually a cessation of the work being done. It's pure logic.
But anyway like you said, that's all. The relevance of this issue to the thread is, no one is going to step up and do an Xbox MAME core update without some serious thought and reservations about what happened today with BP. There's how your beloved MAME goodness is being hindered. The core is indeed ancient on all Xbox Mame versions, ConOPS included.
It will be a miracle if someone chooses to deal with this problem. MAME for the Xbox needs a core update more than any other tinkering around in other areas. Who's going to do it just so BP can take it and call it ConOPS R6 Showcase Reignite Plus Extra? Devs used to show each other a lot more respect and the Scene benefitted for everyone. It matters that that environment is pretty much gone.
-
Im gone dude im in the final tests I wont be keeping shit alive ... its up to you guys now
How many times have u said that? You will surely come out for another grand larceny if the opportunity presented itself. Pissing off other truly skilled devs who have a LOT of new things to offer is worse than piecing together an app of their existing work and releasing it underground through some fanboy of yours just to get credit.
People aren't realizing this to their own detriment.
-
What do I care who works on the stuff so long as someone does? You seem to be taking the position that these devs are irreplaceable? I believe there'll always be people prepared to code stuff for the greater good, ie plebs like me and isn't this what this thread is purporting to be about? So yeah I don't understand the hostility/fear surrounding BP and CoinOps. I am well aware of the earlier mame for xbox ports I used them for years.
You seem to be choosing to miss the point intentionally. That is quite fine. Time will tell how many devs are interested in working for BP. If you don't help him, he literally "takes" your contributions as his own anyway.
I also used the earlier MAME ports for years, but as I said the Xbox Scene is not just about MAME. If it was, then BP would not be adding code from other apps that are dedicated to the hardware I named. You can condone BP and his antics however much you like. But coding for the greater good is not the same as coding for BP's good. Users like you are more than likely the majority. But you all need to try to take off the blinders of selfishness that are making you shortsighted for a moment.
Well, maybe not. Think how you want to. The developers understand the point I'm trying to make. Nes6502 especially. Let's see if BP can keep your scene alive Searius. Give him all the validation he needs. There are many more people out there like you. Your input is welcome.
-
answered myself? - what was my question?
By my own admission I am just a lowly end user of other peoples fine work, I profit from it and I am thankful for whatever it is that gets their work into my hands I don't care much for protocol - I care about this end result. I don't know what other developers want to hear and I'm sorry if I've hurt (their) feelings, it was not my intention, I just wanted to put a voice to what I believe is probably a silent majority of end users enjoying a product that many have contributed to. Perhaps I shouldn't have said anything - as to this outside reader/observer there are clearly greater ego's than mine at stake here : )
Anyway I wholeheartedly would like to see more mame stuff being done, on xbox, pc, maybe 360 one day and I'll get one of those so to this end I commend the intention of this post.
You don't seem to understand. There is a very real likelihood that you will not be getting any further Xbox support form the people who actually lended it their talent due to this latest action taken (again) by BP. I know you like his stuff and you're a casual fan of his, but the Xbox Scene has always been about more than just his app.
Put bluntly, if no developer besides him had ever worked on any XBox apps, then you would not have any XBox emulators. That is the reality of the situation. You love the games. Without the developers who brought MAME, SNES, Genesis, KI, FBA, N64, etc there would be no games for you, no MAME on your Xbox, no nothing. That's all there is to it.
-
tl;dr
The response was to CBagy's post. But the CliffNotes version for you is "Talented developers will never choose to work on cool projects for the Xbox, only to have someone else come along and take it, then release it underhandedly."
Therefore, you = stuck with BP's incremental "updates" from here until death does you part. Same goes for the rest of the Xbox scene. Worship and praise BP. He cares. I don't.
-
I whole heartedly agree with the sharing ethos of the developing community.
It is to be applauded, however i could easily turn a blind eye and keep my mouth shut
if a Dev decided to release a cracking Mame version but with no sources. Im presuming a lot
would understand.
I would also completely understand if it was kept closed source. It's either that or give it to BP to call his own, even though he did absolutely nothing to create or develop it. Make no mistake, I'd support a new MAME 110%. What I won't do however, is support "ConOPs" any further. A new MAME port that somebody slaves over does not need to end up as a ConOPs core update for BP's benefit. He can do a core update himself. Right?
BP said he doesn't need my support in the other thread.
That's funny because he had obviously already lost my support before he even said that. I don't support people selfishly tearing down the XBox scene for their own personal benefit. That's where a line needs to be drawn. I thought people were wrong for causing BP problems. Little did I know it was the other way around. We've surely lost our talent that was left. It will take a helluva lot to convince someone with any real ability to go for this, but I would support them doing whatever they had to do to keep their work from being stolen. Even if they worked under an anonymous surname and keep their sources to themselves.
The reality is, the scene is going to have to live off of BP's "updates" or should I say the updates made by "insert developer's name here." Some tinkering here and there on an app that is copied and pasted together is old news by now. Thanks a bunch bendermike for mamedox/CoinOPs. Thanks a bunch iq132 for the drivers you added to it. And thanks to all the other coders who worked on ConOPS. Especially nes6502, elsemi, gogo ackman and anyone else I'm leaving out.
All the fake "Im leaving the scene for good" bs was nothing but drama. If you were trying to take the house down with you BP, you did a good job of it by killing the developer support, it's foundation. I dont get how someone could think people feel that desperate for those incremental "updates" or tinkers here and there that you do. It's only when you steal from others that you get any kind of a real improvement to your ConOPS app. Trying to ridicule users on forums is nothing but a childish facade by now. Why didn't you ever do a core update BP? Xbox MAME has needed it for years.
Ah, nevermind I see. You'll "do" one after someone else does one first. You'll "do" it by stealing from another talented coder who does it legitimately. Someone tell me, who is going to be a fool and fall for that? There will never be a core update for Xbox MAME or any other cool new endeavors on the scene as long as BP is still around leeching. He's done irreparable harm to the Xbox scene with this stunt.
It's actually okay for users who don't accept this kind of crap. The additions "ConOPS" offers exist in the emus we already have. The privately circulating versions offer nothing I need or care about personally. I'm fine clicking an extra button or two to enter the original emulators created by their true authors, most of which have superior GUIs and the games actually work when I press start to run them, without need for extra tinkering on my part.
People who do not condone this kind of thing should speak up. In all fairness, those who do should do the same. That way we know who condones the sacrificing of the Xbox Scene for one person's lust for glory and attention and who does not.
That said, I would support a new Xbox MAME if only someone were willing to do it. As it stands, MAME for the box has been obsolete for years. After witnessing how this went down, it's no wonder HK didn't bother coming back after MAMEox128 Plus. I wish everyone luck who has hope for the scene. But it was fun for a while in its heyday.
-
Why should nes or any other XBox developer with some real talent even bother spending all their time and effort doing something like this? I would certainly support it, but it definitely wont happen Cbagy.
No one would do this, unless they kept their work closed source. I hope a more cutthroat dev shows up and serves BP some harshly deserved ownage though. He really has cut the scene off at the knees out of his need for personal attention.
-
load of rubbish with iq patchs there wouldnt be r4
Anyways ill be releaseing Showcase 2 as stated many times and im gone for good...i happy ive taken this as far as I wish to
Get over it guys people thank me as they enjoy CoinOPS and the attention to detail they might not even notice....im happy to help but its not wanted so ill hand over Showcase 2 and leave it at that. My name isnt on it and it wont take to long before no one knows who did it. And hopefully someone will do something better or take the sources to a new level.
Dont worry guys time is fast clocking down to 2010
PS ill be closing the thread soon due to useal trollers but pm fum
take care guys.... Showcase 2 is close ill just decide what goes in and what is binned and do an end to end test....release and im gone So you take credit for other peoples work, run away claiming to be "gone for good", but yet you just can't stay away when someone else is contributing something can you?
I dont get how coinops was dead, but you still work "so painstakingkly hard" on it. More like working hard to get other people to support it for you with their contributions, given willingly or stolen outright.
You did something HORRIBLE for the Xbox Scene BP. You are trying to drive away all the really talented developers. You are basically saying you did this just out of jealousy and selfishness, now you're running away hoping people forget about it. Yeah noobs will come around after time has passed, look at this app with other peoples work and credit you for it. Like I said, no talented developer will show up on the Xbox scene and push it with any innovation as long as you are around to take their work fresh out of the oven. This move was not cool no matter how you try to spin it.
I cannot support you this time BP. I was wondering why people were bashing you before and I wanted everyone to leave you alone, but now I feel like a blind man who has been given sight. If there is anyone out there who cannot see the long term damage this short term "update" will cause in the end, then they will find out when it's too late.
Good luck BP.

morals are ironic really(People steal capcoms/sega etc work and over look it...but protect open source code from being used)
mame is founded and built on 100s of peoples work growning together and mame hated the cps2 lovers ripping there code off and said they would have never had cracked cps2 due to the issues it caused (thats ironic now as well)
The autodrivers are only a small part of the patch.....in coding wise about 20 lines if that also 100percent written by me.
the problem is, no one was stealing capcoms work as soon as it was released. This is not just a case of a capcom cps2 analogy. It's more similar to a case of capcom, snk, midway, and namco making new titles each, only to have another company begin mass producing their products without their consent a few weeks/months later. that kind of thing never, ever happened. newer cps2 games weren't even supported by most emulators when cps2 was cracked. no one cashed in on those company's work the way you are trying to cash in on the work of others.
the fact is, its stuff like this that make the real talented developers leave the Xbox Scene. Without the really skilled developers around who actually ported and developed these apps, where would coinops be? This build is fine for your personal usage. But for the people who put all that time into creating those apps, only for you to steal the credit; well let's see how many of them will do anything else for you or any of the other users who show up just to kiss up to you for doing this. at least you credited iq_132 for coding all the drivers for the past few builds of coinops, but doing the right thing and respecting other developers was too much for you to keep doing wasn't it.
the xbox scene is yours BP. you wanted it, you got it. no one should ever port an app or work on the scene again after this stunt. they'll just be doing all that work for you. all the drama you've brought with your antics has really hurt the scene whether people can see it or not. time will show how right I am.
Can you keep the scene alive with your little "updates" at a time? Is Coinops dead or is it alive? Seems it's alive whenever there is someone around besides you to contribute to it, one way or the other. Why do you behave like such a drama queen when others show up to make meaningful contributions to the scene?
you gave SOME people something that they want for now, but you have killed the Xbox Scene BritneysPAIRS. Without xport, bendermike, iq_132, nes6502, gogo ackman, kenshiro, elsemi, and anyone I left out, you would be getting no glory for this whatsoever. good luck keeping the scene alive with your "skills"
have fun crediting BP for all that hard work guys. cheers.
-
Whoa so BP has taken and merged everybody's work into his CoinOPS app? All that work the other developers did? That's wrong on soooo many levels.
Just not cool. At all.
-
FBA loads most NeoGeo games faster I noticed, but once the games are running I found it's pretty level pegging for both FBA and CoinOps. With highly detailed games though, like the Metal Slugs, FBA does better as you can overclock the CPU to avoid slowdown. CoinOps doesn't have that feature.
I meaned even if your eyes can't notice it, the emulation is more accurate. If you wanna have an idea check the documentation on MAWS, all details are there. The first example that comes in my mind is the proper decrytion of M1, which is recent (few months ago)
I now use the 1.29 version and I can tell that it is way more accurate -- there is no contest. Most people who are casual may not notice, but some of us that have been really into these arcade systems for years can tell. I have my AES unit still hooked up, so it is easy to notice when something is not accurate. Some of us might have a couple CPS2 boards too.
The graphics and sound emulations are important to be right on NeoGeo and CPS1/CPS2. 1.29 is handling this well.
-
NeoGeo runs on CoinOPS as good as FBAxxx (except for world hereo's series has some slowdown)
CPS2 runs on CoinOPS as good as FBAxxx (except for the very latest like XMVSF and some levels of SFA3 like the final stage....this is the reason ill be fixing FBAxxx as I love SFA3 and want it as good as it can be).
On my Xbox, the latest CoinOps stutters when playing CPS2 and NeoGeo games -- even with the VMM it has. FBAxxx (now 1.29) does not stutter ever. So for me FBAXXX is just better for the SNK and Capcom arcade games. I don't think it's that close between the two of them.

I just got 1.29c off another site and tried it out. It definitely has fixed all of the bugs I listed with 1.28. It seems to have a problem running Capcom games in HD, but that can be fixed just like the other bugs were.
1.29c, from what I can see, is the best starting point for working on a new FBA version. Ice-Man is correct.

BritneysPAIRS, you added a LOT of features in Coinops Ignite that I wanted like the HDtv support, screen resize options, and I can tell the sound core got improved. It plays so many great arcade games. The NeoGeo/CPS2 stuff doesn't run as smooth or as fast as FBA, but FBA does not run all the classic non-CPS2/NeoGeo games. They are both very important to have. Thank you.
I use FBA for CPS2/NeoGeo, and Cave games. All the other games, and I mean all of the other arcade games besides those, I play on Coinops Ignite. Best of both worlds.
I care far more about emulation accuracy and performance than features like GUI stuff.

Its OK BP. You know how some of us feel now. This could have been shut down a while ago. The first time you asked actually spoke for itself actually.
I've said my piece, so I wish everyone the best. Godspeed to you BP. Sorry you lost my support, but like you said, Im just a newbe you dont care about at all.
Thanks to all the XBox developers who got us this far. Your support was invaluable.
