sammaz Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 thx for the update, i hope it comes out well for you about mame ox <{POST_SNAPBACK}> awesome news...hope to see it soon...i
djohng Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) 10/14 Thurs 1130pm Central...working from Chicago on my real job.....late night in a hotel...thought I would check the forums.... I should have a new fba-xxx out late Sunday, if I have time to finish the changes over the weekend. I'll start a new thread, so it will be easier to locate the download link. And I'll just include a.xbe...no more patches, unless I get pushback from the forum's moderators. I think it's ridculous since the patch is as large as the.xbe file. Also on another subject regarding MAMEoX 0.87.....before I jumped on a plane flight early Wed morning...I successfully compiled the new version, and "hand-wrote" the source code changes while fixing a number of compile errors late Tues night. (and then a new version of mame came out Thurs - 87u3...go figure!) I DID NOT get to test the compiled xbe on my xbox before I left...so I don't know if it works...but the source code changes were minor, so I don't think it shouldn't be a problem... UPDATE...I tested it on Friday night; there are some issues with the controls on MAMEoX, so I'm reviewing the old source vs. new source to see what actually changed in the mame source...haven't jumped into FBA-XXX since MAMEoX is my priority right now. -djohng Edited October 17, 2004 by djohng
Prican25 Posted October 15, 2004 Posted October 15, 2004 (edited) well the problem with fba is by their rule you must share source if you release the xbe but fba team doesn't allow banned games and this has been a big deal as of late in fba-xxx's life that the project has been stopped. patches tho are fine as it doesn't go by any rules of fba team since it nothing more then hex changes to the current xbe which an option to those who want to do it or not.

sammaz Posted October 17, 2004 Posted October 17, 2004 how is it going...? were there any major problems with updating the mame core? possible to add 2nd screenshot folder? thanx again for your dev
sammaz Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 (edited) hey dhjong if you want to pre release for final beta testing here first im sure prican and I would be glad to help... ill be here tonight Edited October 18, 2004 by sammaz
Prican25 Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 sammaz keep it in your pants man, he'll release it when he can as he said.
djohng Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 (edited) hey dhjong if you want to pre release for final beta testing here first im sure prican and I would be glad to help... ill be here tonight <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No prelease/beta. No sample testing...etc. Just like with FBA-XXX, I'm working on this for myself, not for anyone else...and if the xbox community can benefit from my work..GREAT...that's why I share the source and the reason I'm documenting the heck out of the changes. No 2nd screenshot folder. The main focus is conversion to XBox compatibility. Most likely 0.88 will be out soon; so when it does come out, the work I've done on 087 will make the transition to 0.88 core easy. Maybe something to add later, but it's not on my list of todo... And no problems updated the mame core...just a couple of code changes for compatibility with games; Main problems are the controls; changes in the mame core have affected the xbox controls; lots of tedious - mind numbing changes with the xbox core. Be patient...cause once Halo2 is out...all fbaxxx/mameox work comes to a complete an utter standstill! -and BTW its... djohng Edited October 18, 2004 by djohng
Prican25 Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 djohng great to hear sammaz is a person that wants what he wants and he damn well doesn't speak for me (take that as a note sammaz not to use my name in your greed) as i can wait for your update like everyone else is. as for a secobd screenshot folder, i don't really see the point of this and if memory serves me right its just a snap.zip thats needed for screen shots (at least thats how it is with mame32)
fleamncd Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 all though i need this djohng take your time and good luck,cant wait for halo 2 either,doesnt help passing gameshops everyday with the halo 2 counters in window. cant wait for new fbaxxx eitherplease dont put a count down time on here thoughlol
