who am i? someone with no programming experience that released some updates to final burn legends (v1.10, 1.11, and v1.12) originally done by snes6502 then +T+ then me. (credit and thanks to everyone who help in the original source final burn alpha. the xbox sources were all released at xbins)
bp has helped me in the past and has banned me many times for, dare i say it, having an opinion different from his.
i'm also the one who took the existing 8+ year old skin that was in MAMEdoX and created a simple update to give the end user a easy way to tell the difference.
i want to clarify something. let me first tell everyone that i'm the other one that helped gamesfan get MAMEoXtras up and running. what gf did was take a existing source that was made by some others (names escape me) and bp. gf received the code that bp received from iq_132 over at neosource and what we did is take iq_132's stuff and the existing MAMEdoX and updated it. MAMEdoX is over 8+ years old. but as many know the xbox is limited to emulating MAME. MAME.84.6 i believe it's based on.
madmab, +T+, and others helped us.
there has not been a proper release of any source from bp since his renaming to 'coinops 1' thru 'coinops 5'. sources from previous works were released but many of the links are dead or the files do not compile or are corrupted. none are on xbins. xbins wanted nothing to do with bp.
we gave bp and anyone else who was involved proper thanks and the source was released along with any fixes that happen post release.
gamesfan and i are merely fans of the xbox that wanted a unlocked semi-updated MAME that the xbox could handle without the locks (locks consist of forced amount of games, timebombs if using other emu's besides his, rumor of screwing up bios without prior consent, etc) that bp puts in his version and drama that follows.
