Dude... look. I've put in more work on the box on behalf of everyone than you or anybody else out there except possibly (I hate to say it) BP.
This isn't opinion, this is fact.
What arrogance. Let me share some actual "facts" with you.
BP took one emulator that was already 99.9% complete and has tweaked it for four years. Almost every new game he has added someone else did the work. You seem to forget there was an Xbox scene long before 2007 when you joined. The scene has been pretty dead for the last 2 years. Your reality of the Xbox scene is probably 5% of what it was when you joined.
And no, you (nor BP) have not put more work in than Xport has (with over 50 ports to his credit). Artwork packs are not in the same league as emulator ports. Renaming and collecting files are not the same thing as software engineering. Your work is appreciated, but there is no comparision with what you and BP have done to what people like Xport and Lantus did.
You seem to have this attitude of "self proclaimed Xbox user #1" because you have spent most of your free time doing Xbox work. You are not the only one who has spent thousands of hours of their time on Xbox work. For example, FBL 1.0 was a year in the making.

Until your Nestopia came out, the only thank you I ever got for that from you for putting all that together when it was done was one I had to basically drag out of you.
Wrong. You were thanked in ZsnexBox 3.5 two years ago.
How exactly did "you drag the thanks" out of me for a 1.0 release for an emulator you didn't even know I was going to release?
QUOTE
The truth is, 95% of the time anybody tries to contact you about upgrading parts of your emus they are ignored. Ken was trying for quite a while to talk to you about the Out of Memory fixes he made for 5 games in FBL, but you didn't reply so he stopped working on it.
The truth is, you don't know what you are talking about. I don't post my private communication on public threads. My private communication is none of your business. What I say and when I say it is none of your business. You can't speculate on what I say or don't say to people.
QUOTE
Any GOOD suggestions people have made in any of your emulator release threads are shot down if not completely ignored.
Here again you are showing your ignorance. Any user who has been around the scene since 2006 will tell you that I am KNOWN for the exact opposite. I always add whatever anyone wants within reason.
QUOTE
Forgive me for feeling that somebody with the skills you have to port what you want comes with a responsibility to clean up the rough edges when it's done. I understand you have zero obligation to anybody here, but I would feel it's nothing more than taking some pride in your work and showing that you don't have tunnel vision to only support what you feel is important.
Almost everything a user would expect from an emulator is in all of my ports. There are always people who want an obscure feature. No one has ever asked for that feature here or at 1Emulation but you. I have often added features that only a few people have requested. I have anything but tunnel vision when it comes to my projects. My track record proves this.
Do you think I wanted to add dual previews to FBL or NestopiaX? No, I didn't. Nearly all of the dynamic nature of FBL was added to support your work. I am not sure you even tried the emulator until development had stopped. I spent time on dual previews, arcade information, image viewing, etc... and you didn't even try the emulator. Now, you are lecturing me as if I don't support my ports and that I have "tunnel vision"?
QUOTE
the reason you gave for that was the exact same reason that I had just mentioned in an earlier post NOT to bring up to me.
If your idea is bad, I am going to tell you it's bad if I think it's bad.Don't dictate to me what I can and cannot say about posts relating to my work in my release thread.
QUOTE
I'd like to see both ways supported. Maybe just removing stuff like you said they do in FBA would be enough. Just maybe... if you had taken the time to tell me that and work with me on putting it in there for a few hours in the last month I've been asking for it, this conversation wouldn't be taking place now.
Last month FBL development was over. Just maybe if you had actually tried this emulator when I was working on it, I might have added the feature to 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3. You ignored it during your window of requests and you are too late.
