yep. but this emulator is about grifiting money out of idiots despite being a project supported by new owners of atari. attached is a screenshot of rich's faggotry

this programmer called rich isn't very rich and is just a sad grifter. if he wants money he should ask the people involved in his project or get a fucking job.

He is releasing it for free and providing a way for people who feel like it to give him free money. Why do you hate free stuff?

Wasn't BigP the first decent Jaguar emulator? I don't know because Jaguar has no games. What difference does it make if it uses open source code and improves on it but isn't open source?

basically rich is taking code from other people's projects, making up fantasy nonsense about proprietary and then begging for donations for code that he didn't produce himself. this guy seems to be the tommy tallarico of emulation.

Didn’t Nintendo literally release a console that uses an emulator that someone else programmed? It’s essentially something like a glorified Raspberry Pi machine.

PlayStation Classic used an open source emulator. They even posted all code changes at their website in accordance to emulator's license. Nintendo develops own emulators in its European subsidiary called NERD. Those have been dissected to bits by now and they aren't related to community efforts.

if you have nothing to hide, rich, why don't you provide an executable that hasn't been packed? oh that's right we know why: all that stolen code.

libretro are the original authors going by what's online and his subtle admission to stealing the shader code.

not all, but the emulation world attracts a lot of retarded grifters like rich that are trying to make money off of other people's projects while credible projects are run by people that have actual jobs that pay well and don't accept any donations unless it's hardware and it helps to further emulation progress.
