I don't really care if he cancels it or not. And your cellphone analogy is stupid, at least you pay to use it. Node21 helps people steal others work. No one stole Node21s work, or told him to piss off until after he had his little rant. He has already bowed out of the xbox 360 hacking scene, so who cares what anyone calls him. And yes he is being whiny. He won't accept someones sincere apology, and then acts like a child and decides to call it quits over it. The situation was fixed, what is the problem here?

SERIOUSLY, you have yet to answer that, what is the god damn problem now that athiest apologized? Not accepting that, and continuing to bad mouth someone who DONATED and then cancel your work makes you a bitch. Plain and simple.

You don't get to bad mouth someone who actually helped your work, and not get ridiculed for it. Node21 is acting like a baby. He can do whatever he wants with his work, but i'm still going to call it like I see it. He should have just disappeared and not said anything. Instead he decided to go and start a big flame war for no reason.

Since when do you have to accept someone's apology? People are entitled to feel offended. Once again, the issue is not with the person who apologized, it was your retarded response. This is a waste of thread space, so I'm done. Hopefully you'll be getting started on some new homebrew content of your own with no donations required.

Stop sucking Node21s dick. If you don't see how he isn't going on some ego trip, asking for donations for a program he has no intentions of developing for anymore, then you are dumb as hell. Gloating features on here and then saying no one but him will see them now is stupid.

And yes you do accept someones apology. How fucking old are you? Especially when they correct the mistake, and make no excuses.

If Node21 is going to be this childish, then honestly, I don't want his work anymore. Good riddance Node21. Someone else is just going to pick up where you left off anyways, your throwing a fit is only going to get you sympathy among a very small number of people on this forum only. No one cares.

Node21 helps people steal work that costs millions of dollars, hundreds of man hours, and years to develop. He does not get to complain about a leak that quickly disappeared.

I'm actually enjoying this rant, so I hope the mods don't lock it down.

As far as me blaming someone else before athiest...that isn't true.  The post quoted above is simply what made me decide to stop working on 360.  At that point in time I didn't know who leaked it, just that it had been leaked.  He stated that he wasn't the leak...he got it from sky and posted it elsewhere.  I expect that to happen once it's leaked...

Yes, I plan to support the people who did donate.  I mentioned that already.

No, I don't plan to stop working on xm360.  I use it every day, and continue to work on it almost every day.  It gets better and better each time I work on it.  What I've decided to do is stop sharing it with anyone.  It was harder that way anyway since I had to worry about compatibility issues, and supporting uses that I hadn't anticipated.

This wasn't about piracy.  My software was free.  It's hard to pirate something that is free.  

But, I guess you're right.  I'm a baby.  I'm a whiny little cunt.  I'm taking my ball and going home.  I sincerely hope someone does take my place...this scene is lacking in people that are delivering software.

Node21 you say you don't know who leaked it, and that's the point. One person has admitted to leaking it and said he was sorry and offered more donations. But the fact is, it seems like your just looking for someone to blame and he happened to be there at the time. Maybe you could be thankful for all the publicity it's getting people obviously like and enjoy using something you have made. In a week or so it's probably going to be all over the place anyway. Instead of bitching at people for leaking it, why not use it to your advantage?

[red_ring_of_box]

Sorry to hear what happened with that leak node shame you had to end support for xm360. I never really used your app extensively but I did download 1.6 and liked its features. I do have one question though, why did you make it a closed beta in the first place? I am just saying that if you show progress and gave out betas for people to test to all then I bet you'd get more donations because people would see that you are trying to make the best app available to them.

If however this was a closed beta because you where experimenting with unstable code that could cause harm to people's hard drives or consoles and wanted a larger base of testing besides your own jtag to detect any errors in your code for the next official release then that is perfectly reasonable, and of course anyone willing to donate in order to show they won't get pissed off and start bitching if a features doesn't work right or needs more testing, take freehood360 for example.

kyleh613 you don't seem to get it NO ONE likes a leaker, NO ONE besides other leakers. Giving out a beta version of node's app could have put so many people's consoles at risk if the beta had any code that screwed up your hard drive or over wrote parts of the nand instead of reading them, or even corrupting DLC when it attempted to unlock it and node didn't know about it.

Leaking can, as I said, also put a detrimental effect on how people anticipate a product before it is even released. Hell when Doom 3 was released John Carmack got pissed off at NVidia because one of the employees there decided it would be cool to leak an experimental build of Doom 3 which was filled with bugs and caused a lot of crashes which gave Doom 3 a lot of bad press. Course the game was great when it came out but at the time a lot of people thought it would suck come release day.

Why the hell are you supporting atheist anyway? Kinda find it weird that a member who joined 50 minutes after atheist said he was done apologizing was so quick to defend him/her even though you don't really seem to mention if they know atheist at all, and all in their first posts no doubt. You certainly didn't join here to help anyone or ask for help just to argue, a coincidence maybe?

If he leaked freeboot or XBR when they where first releasing beta builds and the crew behind it decided they wouldn't support this community anymore because they thought we where a bunch disrespectful punks and loved to leak shit and we where all stuck with our thumbs up our asses until one of use learned how to disassemble, patch, then reassemble PPC assembly code, and then have the balls to release it. Even then who is going to be the one to do it, you... didn't think so. You wouldn't be on your high horse telling everyone off who is pissed at him for leaking would you.

Edited for clarity.

This isn't true.  My unlock code was never very good.  People were getting their content elsewhere.  xm360 just helped them manage it.  There's no such thing as a leak that quickly disappears.  Have you ever tried getting the toothpaste back in the tube?  It was merely broken trust.  People who didn't want to be trusted didn't have to donate, simple as that.

Anyway, 1.8 seems to be wrapped.  I'll try to get it out tomorrow.

Features:
* Fixed fact that you couldn't sort by ratings or raters in the collection manager
* Fixed new scraper (1.7b) getting ratings wrong.   I made a change to the file format that breaks compatibility with old xbla_titles.csv, so make sure you are not using an old version of the file.
* Fixed initial scan crashing the 360 if there was no existing content.bin file.
* xm360_server is now aware of the last time xbla_titles.csv and dlc_titles.csv were generated.  Every 360 that connects to xm360_server will *automatically* update the xbla_titles.csv and dlc_titles.csv on that 360.  Furthermore, you can regenerate, or replace those files without stopping xm360_server from running.  So, I leave the server running all the time, 24/7.  I have scheduled a /X and a /D every night at midnight as well.  It's all invisible without any hands on maintenance.  Basically, this feature means you shouldn't ever have to worry about moving these files to your 360 anymore.  On the server, these files should be in the same place as content.bin.
* Also, if you put an xm360.xex in that same directory, xm360 will *also* update itself if the version there is newer than the version that is running.  It will automatically restart if this happens.  This is a moot feature though, unfortunately.

I missed this before.  Good catch.  Coincidence?  

[node21]

Updated first post (1.7b released publicly [if you didn't already get the leaked one])

1.8 sent to donators.

[MrFlooD]

Thanks Node for 1.8. I installed this morning and so far so good.

...and?  

The server is been upgraded, Was that little remark supposed to have made me cry or something?

Is this the level of maturity here, Yes I made a mistake of which I regret and sincerely apologised for.  If node decided to stop releasing to public that is his decision which I am not responsible for.

On the contrary,  I'm in the unique position of saying that you are solely responsible.

Now, please go thread crap elsewhere.

[ATHiEST]

No im not.

It is your choice whether you release to public or not, I am not responsible for your actions, only my own.  

The only reason you didn't want it leaking is so that your donators could have it early but you said yourself that you had a "very" small list of donators and Im sure they would just be as happy if you released to public at same time and would still donate either way.

Im sure the people who have donated didnt do it just to get the program early and would also donate again even if you released to public straight away.  You also said recently along the lines that you dont mind not releasing as it saves you job of making sure of compatibility etc so maybe at back of mind you wanted to stop and are using this as a excuse.

No real damage has been done to anything with that small leak.  Yes you do have a right to be angry but I think you are overreacting.

I'm so glad that your "sure" why other people donated.  At least they *didn't* do it so that they could spoil it for everyone else.

WTF is a "small" leak?  How do you define a "big" leak?  No real damage?  I'm sure the people who actually looked forward to new versions of xm360 would beg to differ with that opinion.

Look, I'm done with you.  This thread has always been to support users.  I plan to continue to support users on this thread.  Please stop posting on this thread unless it is about xm360 [not including the fact that you leaked it, and are now looking to blame anything and everything on something other than your actions].  I don't even care if you send it via PM...just don't put it on this thread.  Let's see if you have trouble respecting that simple request like you had trouble with the request to not share the pre-release version of 1.7b.
