So in which ways is it souped up, aside from having a GUI? Either way, I think you'd get more appreciation adding things to Mednafen (like the GUI), rather than using its PC-Engine core and claiming you have a brand new emulator.

Also, have you talked to Mednafen's author about this? I personally think that forking software w/o permission or a very pressing reason (usually by people who have already contributed to a significant amount of the code base) can be rude. I know a lot of people disagree, though (ie, GPL = do what you want) and I doubt Ryphecha cares enormously, so I'm probably speaking to no one on this.

It's enhanced by way of adding the ability to TAS with it. it's a fork not of mednafen, but of the re-recording variant.

Hahaha, now I'm the one jumping.
Who's the one assuming completely unfounded claims without even reading the list of those involved in a project already ?

Don't expect me to stop insulting blatant stupidity, ignorance and general foolishness anytime soon.

And dare say you wouldn't have answered the same thing if the tables were reversed. ¬_¬

You do realize that some people use different aliases on sourceforge and various forums, right? Especially when one is as potentially ubiquitous as "kick." Maybe you took what I said as insulting, but I had no intention of making personal attacks of the nature you're making in this thread, and make in many other threads...

Calling this libel, wow. I can't believe you're being serious. Wait, you do mean it, right?

Yes, ones like these. You know, you make mistakes too - of course, that time I called you on it you just argued against it anyway...

No, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have told the person to "turn on their brain" over a pretty simple and fairly understandable mistake (lack of credit in the post for one thing)

If you had made the mistake instead of me, and I knew it was incorrect, I would have probably responded "kick didn't write that emulator, _____ did" and nothing else. And if you responded like this I would have probably responded "Oops, my mistake. Please take my post as addressed to the author instead." Instead, I was defensive because you were being deliberately insulting, and now we're arguing about it like this.

ROFL! @__ XD

@Exophase: Stop attacking the newsposter and send all your hate mail to the real project owner (pault414).

Just take a look at his project history:
http://code.google.com/u/pault414/

You can see that he's creating TAS / re-recording mods of every possible emulator out there.
