You need to learn how source code works every time you compile MAMEox you get a new default.xbe and a MAMEOX.xbe
or how do you think new games which BritneysPAIRS adds to MAME
Work in CoinOPS do they just appear as if by magic. No they were added to the source Drivers by him this counts
as a code change!!! And every code change must be submitted according to the MAME GPL

No one has mentioned the console emulator sources in coinops thats a whole seperate issue
This Thread is about MAME.

Now i dont really care too much about this he can do what he wants with his sources as far as im concerned But
if BritneysPAIRS is gonna call me out on my Sources Which have been Fully Released
in compliance with the MAME GPL Then he better be Whiter Than White with his sources which isn't the case

As for credits yes he doesn't have to credit the original authors of the emulators he is using in his frontend launcher
on the other hand i believe it's a etiquette issue thats to say it would be rude not to credit to work of an developer
that you are using thats why i personally choose to credit everyone who has ever worked on MameOX in my update

Ive nothing further to add here plus im sure the members on here are sick of this thread about now
