We will deliver just be nice. EDIT- Please dont PM me on the forums, just email me [email protected] |

Just take a quick search on LunarEclipse in the forums, I think this is a joke or a brag that has just got out of hand, If a N64 emu was on the cards here then it would be amazing, but somehow I dont think its going to be coming from someone who post's because he can't get cheat codes to work for a snes emu...serious coding takes serious time, also I dont beleive that the source code to the xbox version was ever made public..

| Firstly, until you have a working alpha/beta whatever, in your hands, DO NOT SEND THIS GUY ANY MONEY. I am not saying he's not working on a new version of Daedalus, but I am very sceptical. It's not that I believe this can't be done, because we all should know it can. No technical background or anything else has given me reason to believe this is more than a publicity stunt. Firstly, the only way he could continue work on the leaked beta would be by having the original pre-compiled code. This is not freely available and I see no proof that he has acquired this code. The only thing he could then do is to try porting the PC code of Deadalus. He has provided no technical background or information to any other coder/site that I'm aware of that would agree with and backup his claims. seeing is very much believing with this, I'm afraid. Sometimes, I think it's better that people shutup and release something when it's ready or at least discuss with other coders or give a locked beta to a few choice website reviewers. So, a little more technical background or a locked alpha to xbox-scene or anywhere that would confirm this project would be nice. I am very angry though that you would talk about accepting money at this stage, where you have proven nothing. |

| QUOTE (akarnid @ Apr 8 2003, 10:42 AM) | ||||
Yeah, and this is exactly how all the rest of the scene has unfolded. I don't know how many times I've seen bashing from people who thought they knew better, and were somehow furthering the 'scene's' interests by pointing out those that they thought were lying/cheating/bullshitting. Really. No one cares! And when the authors they were bashing DID come out with the goods the critics suddenly became silent. The best example of this were the Xecuter guys when they first announced their chip. Those that read that forum religiously remember all the accusations and bashing going on there when this happened. There's an old saying: If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. Some people really haven't got anything to say, except for bashing. edit: this will be all on this topic from me. If LunarEclipse delivers the goods, so be it. He's got nothing to prove to anyone, and this is all just done on his spare time anyway. |

I never looked at your postcount at all, I called certain people here n00bs because they swallowed LunarSumthin's big load of bullshit like it was a dinner at a fine restaurant. It doesn't matter if this project is real or not in this case, because you believed in a guy with no prior releases - that supposedly is making an emulator EVERYONE wants but the 1337 coders still haven't made, and that can't even spell C++ or even show some kind of semi-proof (some source-code or code theory would be nice)... As for the whole n00b-business; I have coded for the PC, GBA and some for the Dreamcast, and I -STILL- consider myself a n00b. What's the big deal anyway, hurt your pride? 2. Fair enough, but keep in mind that you are only talking for yourself (and a few of the others who have posted here). Some people actually get let down when they have high hopes for something that turns out to be a lie, and people like that tend to get angry.

OK, I've been avoiding posting to this thread, because it's just plain silly. But now I have to. Without seeing anything that resembles a snippet of proof, no one should get their hopes up. While there is a slim chance that he could be coding something, it's doubtful. The fellow who ported Deadalus to the xbox (privately) is the one who WROTE Deadalus, if I am not mistaken. So, to the here and now. LunarEclipse comes out of the blue, writes TWO sound 'plugins', and a VM system in less than two weeks? Since the XDK does NOT support VM in any way, authors of several xbox applications (Mame, XBMP, likely more) have been working on VM in one way or another for quite some time now, but as of yet no code has surfaced that has any type of Virtual Memory. Again, there is a possibility that he could have a working N64 emu, but it's highly unlikely. Not trying to flame, just trying to drop some 'reality' on y'all. If he has it working, all the best to him. It just seems that this is the first time in history that someone who ported/wrote some sophisticated code recruited many anonymous people without regard to their technical ability to 'beta test'. LunarEclipse, I call your bluff. Present proof, or go away. This is the only way to simmer this thread down. If you can offer proof, I will eat my words and gladly give you the praise you deserve. If not, please do NOT use the standard "no one beleives me so I wont release any binaries/source!" retort. --falz |
| QUOTE (mr jones @ Apr 14 2003, 08:01 PM) |
| *sigh* Well, I'm one of the few people on the planet that consider folks innocent until proven guilty. I realize that Lunar has said some things that has put his credability on the chopping block (you've utilizing virtual memory? WHAT?! There's homebrew coders that are PROFESSIONAL programmers that haven't been able to implement that....) But hey, I know nothing about Lunar's coding background, so for all I know, Lunar can be one of the leads at MS's Entertainment Research and Development Dept., who's doing this in his free time. Yes, its unlikely, but I think you understand my point. This whole us versus them thing is just rediculous now. Both sides can be argued indefinitely. Believers - why are you folks listening to someone who has no other prior projects available on the Xbox? What other software has he shown that proves he's nothing other than some kid that is getting a kick out of all the attention that he's getting? Skeptics - What is he posting source code going to do? There's what, three, maybe four folks on here with enough background to have ANY idea of whether or not his source would even be able to be compiled. Besides, why does HE hafta show his source? Name one other Xbox coder besides Lantus that has their code readily available to be viewed and modified by anyone else. He hasn't been shown to be a liar in the past, so why not take his word at face value? I guess I'm saying that until the BTs have software to test out, we can't say either way, and until then, all of this bickering is just opinion. It serves no purpose other than to divide folks here into the skeptics and the believers. And until the 20th, everything else posted here by folks other than Lunar, whether its positive or negative, isn't going to serve any purpose other than to fan the flames. Is there really anything else that needs to be said until then? |

well, my intent is not to bitch at him personally. I have stayed out of this thread for it's entire life until now. I just see the warning signs down the road. Sorry to have to be the one to tell you, but the internet is a cold, cold world where all verterans who partake are weary of the anonymous masses spouting off about what they can do, or have, in real life. The burden of proof is entirely on the person who makes the claims. That is a fact, and whether you like it or not, going on faith from the internet is futile. Yes, I find it hard to beleive that someone who has the skills to complete what so many would like to do but can't, joined (wandered into) this site last month. It is the premiere site on the internet for all things xbox related. I would think that at some point he would have stubled across this place for development help, tips, advice on the XDK or something earlier on. Also the lack of anything resembling code explanation, plugins used, routes taken, or really anything specific whatsoever only serves to compound my doubts. Even if by the remotest of chances this is true, way too many people bought into it way too early on, without so much as a shred of insight coming forth from it's creator. If I'm wrong, which I am certain I am not, feel free to flame away, and I'll be the first to offer my congratulations to Lunar. This just reeks of bullshit beyond anything before, and has gone on past the point of amusement. Notice how much time has passed, where development should be a frenzied pace, hardly a word from the author.

| lol...Lunar had this all planned out..anyone can do what he just did...what he did was he told everyone that an N64 *UPDATED* emulator was coming out, then he knew he was gonna get flamed knowing that hes gonna try to make an emulator with his post counts being like 69...(lol) so when he knew he was gonna get flamed he would just say "ok im not releasing it since everyones flaming me"....see it just something n00bish that only people like Methius would DO! |

| Wow, you go take a piss and 6 more replies are added to this thread. I think everyone should grab their L337 geek dictionarys and look up flaming. most of the disbelieving comments in this thread are not flames, they are simply people wanting to know the truth of this situation. There are only 2 or three replies that attack Luna directly, the rest are simply asking for evidence. And to the comment of innocent until proven guilty. This makes no sense. it is not a crime to pitch un sellable XDK vapourware. When a pharmaceutical company invents a new drug, the burden of proof is on them to prove that it works. They cant just simply say, it works because I say so. I truly hope that Luna is not living a lie as Im sure people like Methius (who have spent a lot of time on cover art) will feel quite pissed. |

So please leave your daddy's pc and us alone, and go crawl in a corner and cry.

Well, it wasn't you personally as I couldn't narrow it down to just one person But, still...you don't know if you were right or wrong anyway. Not meeting a programming deadline is almost to be expected...especially on a difficult project like this. It's quite possible (and perhaps probable with a project as large as this one) that LunarEclipse didn't give him some enough time with that 4/20 deadline. Personally...if I was him, after all this flaming, I wouldn't release the application unless it worked really f'ing good, because he'll just get flamed for doing a bad job otherwise and not meeting up to expectation. |
| QUOTE (nazis X. @ Apr 20 2003, 11:59 PM) |
| He wouldn't have any expectations to live up to if he didn't post all the crap he posted. He could have simply said, "Yo, I'm working on a N64 emulator, should release a beta sometime around 4/20", and, while some of the flaming would have occured, he'd have absolutely NO expectations to work towards. He'd only have to make a N64 emulator that works... not well, not fast, not even with sound or Virtual/Swap memory. He called all this shit upon himself, and if he was a serious devver, he wouldn't have announced it a week or two beforehand and he wouldn't be offended when he put out claims that people would easily doubt and got the return that was expected. |
| QUOTE (Jsmith @ Apr 21 2003, 06:10 AM) | ||
He could've done all that, but didn't. Doesn't make him a non-"serious" developer. Just look at the Avalaunch crew. They announced their new dashboard about a week or two before planning on releasing it and are promising *a lot* of features for it that have never been put on a dashboard and have even talked about how easy it is building it. No one's been getting down on them. The most skepticism they got was from me because the guys name was Joker and said that they started building it on April 1st. Nexgen crew did the same thing...and after all the flaming they almost dropped the project all together. I don't think that stuff made him a non-"serious" developer, and think he should have every right to react in a defensive manner. |
