1) Only in jurisdictions that forbid unilateral contracts
2) If that's really the case, then the author would have to explicitly grant permission for each and every download of the source, because copying is one of the rights reserved to the author under copyright law.

Since 2) is insane and clearly not intended, there must be some form of implicit license. If I were a user of this program, I might be more at ease were it codified and clarified.

If you are the author, you'd better reimplement, or eliminate fnmatch.c: it's GPLv2 or later, and therefore incompatible with the licensing of the work as a whole. The FSF is not terribly litigious, but it does have lawyers and money.


All of this crap just gives me a headache. There is actually no copyright notice inside the abgx360 CLI app binary or the windows installer, only in the GUI source/binary, abgx360.c and website html because those are the only files which i have actually made entirely from scratch. If I have no right to say what can be done with the work as a whole because it depends on source code or libraries that are not public domain and require a certain license for derivative works, then I will not claim such a right.

Look, all i want is for people to stop making shitty versions of abgx360 that get stuck in an endless loop of hammering the database or making official sounding websites full of misinformation or potential viruses.

When checking wave 6 games it reports Wave 7, I wonder what it says with actual wave 7 games


Video partition does not match known data (probably corrupt but might be a
brand new wave if this is a new game and abgx360.dat hasn't been updated yet)

Stealth status is uncertain

That's what mine says on COD Black Ops after updating to abgx360 v1.0.3

That would be because COD Black Ops does not exist in the ABGX360 verified database yet...

Just a little observation regarding COD - Black Ops. I am positive i saw this game listed as game no. 1026 that had been verified by abgx360 last night. However, today the game isn't listed anymore. If it was verified then why was it pulled again...? Just wondering.

The uploader broke the rule about no verifications before official release date because "every shop" in his Italian town was selling it early on saturday. It was up for about an hour before I took it down.

Feature request.

Would it be possible to have the program output to the CLI, and also generate a .txt file when the operation is complete, and automatically have that file named something along the lines of...

abgx360 - Wave6 - Patched SSv2 = PASS.txt

The tool works, and Seacrest is happy with the way things are right now. As are everybody else. Enough said.

Refresh the download page, I just put it up. Let me know whether it works or not and which version of OS X you have.

Thanks Seacrest.

Great work as always Seacrest... I'm using the OSX version and so far it's been great.

I have a question about the ability to check burned discs using OSX. From what I've read, pointing to the DVD-ROM device in the /dev folder should work. However, whenever I try it I end up with an error about an unrecognizable file system.

The weird thing is if I use the same drive to check it when running the Windows version of ABGX360 in VMware Fusion, I can read the burned DVD just fine.

Is the ability to read burned DVDs unavailable in the OSX version or am I doing something wrong?


Correct, it's not supported yet. Basically all you need to do is finish the sendcdb function for OS X in abgx360.c

CODE
#elif defined(__APPLE__)

int sendcdb(int direction, unsigned char *dataBuffer, unsigned long dataBufferSize,
            unsigned char *cdb, unsigned char cdbLen, bool checkreturnlength) {
    // todo
    
    sprintf(sense, "UU/OO/SS"); // temp -- gives sense error "Unsupported Operating System"
  return 1; // temp
}
