cba.gy Posted November 28, 2009 Author Posted November 28, 2009 (edited) cvs, git ,svn all terms we all know and understand their usages.I have an extremely small knowledge of developing code you are correct.Although theres a lot of that about !Not all devs are as clever as they would have us believe though.Folder structures included in xbox ports that dont do anything can mean 2 things. 1. Lots of code commented out but dependancies still remain.2. The inability to comprehend how to remove this code without breaking the code. Now as ive said theres a lot of this about, surely this code and folders is clutter ?Without this clutter perhaps precious resources could be freed.Now this is your domain, could say CoinOps be re-built, without cut n paste, from the ground up withoutthe clutter from a PC port ? Do these things impact performance ? lol Yeah half the skin is a joke, the easy 10 minute boring looking piece. Can you gueess which piece.Although on a serious note the videos do play in very high quality in the "correct aspect". Plus onecan browse the roms with "zero" slowdown. I notice CoinOps suffers badly from this. Is that cause ofpoor video encoding or poor emulator coding or just bad skinning ? Care to comment. In anticipation of Madmab releasing his NeoGenesis Edition beta.Heres a SD version of my Singularity skin. http://www.mediafire.com/?r3jyniwrmghNot too many configs. I cant do too much with SD due to lack of space.Im a HD user so i have no motivation in SD so ive done this out of the goodness of my heart for you lot. http://www.mediafire.com/?r3jyniwrmgh Edited November 28, 2009 by cba.gy
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 ummmm well I dont know what to say.....yes every thing can be optomised as has been happening for ages...every feature requires some mem so its probably a minus. If you want to change this stuff its all open source just learn how I cant really help. A total rebuild would be mosterous espeically as bug free as CoinOPS is if anyone want to do this they can..but the new core runs slow as for many games. Mame is built for high end PC and they dont comprimise for anything but a good PC. Dev dont think they are clever but they know they have to do the work any can learn and do anything in fact its a great help if they do....I supplied all source code and matched it so it build correctly on PC this took me hours and hours to make it work for the public properly. If you want your own project make one I had to do that for myself as I didnt like what I had...I dont see why you and me are any different really, I say learn the stuff you think is siple then you will know what is simple and what is hard cause many things fall into many catagories. All I can say is start your own project the way you want it to go...use anyones source or a mix and hopefully people will like your stuff.
cba.gy Posted November 28, 2009 Author Posted November 28, 2009 Yes i suppose starting from scratch would be a mammoth task.I honestly considered starting a lightgun only version of Mame for xbox last year.It took ages just to get the software needed to run correctly.Then i made the mistake of using existing sources as a learning point of reference.I have a debug box n stuff but really needed advice on the correct VS to use.I didnt want to be too old school and use old stuff but at the same time with the xbox itselfbeing very limited on resources then i couldnt be too modern in the approach.Anyway thats as far as that went !!!!

I cant do too much with SD due to lack of space.Im a HD user so i have no motivation in SD so ive done this out of the goodness of my heart for you lot.Very fast, very efficient use of space and most importantly lots of room for user configs.Memory consumption is preserved even with possibly some of the best video and artwork on xbox emulators.Nothing is locked out for any person wishing to build new or add to existing skins. http://www.mediafire.com/?r3jyniwrmgh
(XBOX) Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Whoa coolest skin EVER! ( ) spellcheck COiNops? ...........
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 I can see with skills like this why you think my skin is locked it also should show to anyone else why(also I dont have mem issues in CoinOPS all pngs are cleared from mem when they disappear so you can do what you like pic wise)....This is a joke skin and not your real skin right???, im picking it is as you say your a top skinner and hoping it is cause it makes me smile, do you actually have anything proper or is that months and months more of waiting in anticipation I cant help but think with this and your comments about CoinOPS skin cant be skinned that you have no idea at all how to skin. Im hoping under it all you actually can achieve something of the calibar you say you make anyways ill take this as a joke and if you actually do something worth downloading or looking at I will for sure but for now I can only take you at your word about your skills...hope to see something proper one day if not all good...its funny
cba.gy Posted November 28, 2009 Author Posted November 28, 2009 Dont know what you mean by waiting months ? Its been on the NES Madmab edition for months !Where have you been !!!!Then again you wouldnt know this as you claim you dont download other emulators and havent done for years.So with this in mind you havent been anticipating anything have you ? lol. Thought you were outta here !
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 its ok good luck in your project...dont be offended I dont bite its just trolling and I have no real reason to look as for sure I am only looking at the previews and smiling...maybe I should look at it differently but to me its not really worth commenting on... Hey good luck brother your work will live on forever
cba.gy Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) New emuload video for NeoGenesis MadMab Edition.Built for my revised skin really. Available in SD or HD/Widescreen. Features scrolling background and animated Sega logo.4 seconds quick splash. It won't hang around onscreen too long.I did compress them to less than 1mb, but theres no need as @ 5000kbpsit still only produces .xmv @ 2.3mb. So it won't break the bank.
