exobuzz Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Have the sources to mameox v0.84.3b but not the mameox128 plus. Anyone have a copy or know where I can get them (didn't see em on xbins). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exobuzz Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 They don't exist mate. HK must have them though i guess ? he shouldn't have released the binary without the source really :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ T + Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 cba.gy is right. Unfortunately, HK$ never released his sources. If he had I would have been sorely tempted to do some work on MAMEoX128 Plus myself. I don't know if it's possible to contact him but he hasn't posted here for a long time.

exobuzz Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) makes no sense to me if your done with something or no longer have the time to work on itwhy just not put it out there so others can carry on what you started It's even simpler a matter than that. The mame license states specifically you must release the source. It should have been done along with the binary release. I realise when it comes to xbox binaries the license issue regarding the xdk is a tricky one, but there is really no excuse to shaft the creators of the source we have all benefited from, by not adhering to their license. Unfortunately, it seems a far too common practise on the xbox1. Edited September 17, 2011 by exobuzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darknior Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Nobody as an email to ask him ?If you have one, i'm ok to ask him help or source code Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exobuzz Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Nobody as an email to ask him ?If you have one, i'm ok to ask him help or source code i sent a pm to HK$ via this forum, but his last post was 2006, so I'm not hopeful :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exobuzz Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) Oh and in the meantime, I have uploaded the source to github https://github.com/exobuzz/mameox I converted the old sourceforge cvs to git first (so we have the old history), then overlayed/updated to the last source from XPort. It's a starting point for me at least. I plan to pull the mouse support out of http://code.google.com/p/coinops/ as a next step and make sure it all works on my system.

The 360 doesn't interest me at all as a platform. I agree with exobuzz that it's extremely unfortunate that more sources to open-source projects ported to the Xbox have not been made available.
