Me, Schema and KilrPilr have posted virtually nothing over the last few months on this project

It is as if 6502dude has hijacked the project...

he says he has that many ROMs working and that my design is faulty... etc but he publishes nothing of his own schematics and none of the ROMS he says are compatible...

He keeps everything to himself...

no published diagram... truly, I fell he stole my work and tossed me aside... along with Schema and Leo...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't believe it works but frankly, his social methods are quite parasitic...

did this guy ever made gerber files to get PCBs done in a fab ?

Spawn

 

Francois

 

who knows

6/10/2007

 

12:14:46 AM

 

Francois

 

Spawn

 

he can claim whatever he wants to be wrong with my design... I can't afford to compete in time with him and I am not sure it is even worth it anymore...

6/10/2007

 

12:15:29 AM

 

Francois

 

Spawn

 

and if I want to nitpick on his design like he did on mine... tough shit... he didn't publish like I did...

but the real question is... Carlson, myself and schema have expressed that a multicart should not contain "unreal" carts and that it should be for historical carts. Where do you stand on this ?

6/10/2007

 

12:17:06 AM

Francois

 

unreal?

Yeah, like software designed to be load as a cart (at $A000) but that never really existed as a commercial product.

Things that were created for fun by VIC fanatics after the computer went defunt but that loads the same way as a real cart image.

Francois

 

what does it matter?

6/10/2007

 

12:19:34 AM

Francois

 

i dont think the multi-cart is all that important

6/10/2007

 

12:19:49 AM

 

Spawn

 

Francois

 

i'l still collect vic carts

6/10/2007

 

12:20:03 AM

Well, personnaly, if a guy had created TETRIS for the VIC last year and made it like a cart image I know I wouldn't want it in MY multicart...

6/10/2007

 

12:20:24 AM

 

Francois

 

Spawn

 

because it was never a real cartridge for the VIC...

6/10/2007

 

12:20:34 AM

But some guys feel otherwise

see Carlson's post here : http://sleepingelephant.com/v-web/bulletin/bb/viewtopic.php?t=2021&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

yeah, it makes no difference to me

6/10/2007

 

12:22:24 AM

 

Francois

 

Spawn

 

it truly pisses me off... 6502dude affectively put everything I've done to trash... the situation is like I have to compete with him...

6/10/2007

so it doesn't matter to you wether a "historical" multicart is made or a fully loaded multicart... ?
