CoinOps Thank You List

[U-Said-it]

How about A600? If SCUMMVM 1.3.0 is in the next release of COINOPS he ported this...probs some other stuff too.

While A600 probably did extra features for the Xbox, I hardly call compiling an open source project enough to take credit. All credit for the ScummVM compatible games goes purely to the ScummVM Team, no one else.

 

Also, I know for a fact that they would not want their honorable project being besmirched by it being illegally included in CoinOPS.

When you say "illegally"

 

You mean _______________?

[U-Said-it]

When you say illegally

You mean _______________?

 

1. Well besides the use of the Microsoft SDK, and proprietary headers. We can all agree this is why binary/package only releases should remain the way it is now... The endorsment a complete package (scummvm is not to be distributed with games).

2. And most importantly of all, the GPL.

 

Not including, and adhering to, the GPL license is pretty serious. Assuming they knew who was modifying, and distributing it, they could follow legal proceedings against so said party.

 

There is also the issue of linking GPL apps to non-GPL apps, or libraries. If the source was modified in any way to interface with CoinOPS, that could also potentially open up CoinOPS itself to being in violation of a blanket GPL license as well.

Oh you're still here ?

 

And still a staff member ?

 

There's people trying to discuss, here. And this GPL aspect of ScummVM particularly interests me. So please, don't lead this topic into usual schoolyard fighting again. Thanks.

If you didn't know already, mame 0.142 has been ported to PS3! So there are even more ways to get your arcade fix

 

Mame v0.142 romset (over 10 thousand roms) is scanned in as little as 5 seconds, no waiting minutes here

slowdown city and you cant play new games on PS3 to do that....coinOPS outpaces it....hehehe I wonder why? PS3 is 100 times faster...not viable at all yet when simple game stutter along

 

I hope one day something is viable...maybe a .84core for ps3 will be the way to go or a proper hack for 360 so some dev work can happen...but need a decent platform to start with....

There goes the Topic!

I banish you all!!!!

It's only a 'preview' release and works quite well for some of the games I've tried. Who knows what it will be capable of in 5 years

 

Here's a compatibilty list of what's working so far - MAME_PS3 compatilbility

 

Sorry MMQ, erm.. thanks to all the devs who contributed to CoinOPS and those who brought it down

If you really are leaving this forum then leave. If you are staying then understand that your inflammatory comments aren't welcome here anymore, particularly in relevant and informative threads like this one.

 

Back on topic, the GPL issue is a sticky one since it's rarely adhered to in the Xbox scene. I guess developers figure that, since developing software for the Xbox using the XDK is illegal to start with, the GPL doesn't matter too much. I don't know enough about it so I don't have an opinion on that one way or the other but it's interesting that many Xbox developers have taken this view.

Bigby, you forgot to give credit to Robo Hobo for the port. This is very important, someone else could claim to have done that in six years.

 

edit.

 

Thanks for the clarification about GPL and xbox dev, +T+

+t+ get fucked newbe...its only dev that has now moved off....you and I can talk all we want but you cant actually do anything...so just release news of what others are doing and leave doing stuff to others

 

all you guys need is a news thread as you guys cant even do simple things.....

[BritneysPAIRS]

+t+ reading the pms as soon as a blog or site is setup you will lose all but the flamers to here, there has been so many PM I didnt bother answering any but will do soon with a link....they seem to be sick to death of the flamers

 

ill be starting blog stuff this week and make it as simple as I can for dev and release....other stuff can be discussed or talked about there is nothing really happening anyways of much interest to people by looks....so it wont get cluttered

....sick to death of the flamers

 

Sick to death of your usual ranting, bullshit & general spewing of crap.

Remember what nes6502 said of you when you took his FB code without his consent...cancer on the XB scene...
