Welcome back driver man.

I don't know, he didn't mix any personal attacks in with his announcement, so maybe this is someone different.

sudopinion, Driver-man is an insane guy who constantly makes new accounts here and at other forums to announce ridiculous software projects and generally troll folks. You may want to post some links to your other work, just to reduce suspicion.

 

Just relax and let RoM-Jacket handle your joystick.

Unnecessary feature overlap with my wife.

[Well Fed Games]

No, you misread. Driver-man's software is ridiculous, Rom-jacket might range anywhere from daft to incredible, I haven't tried it. Just explaining the Driver-man thing. "All Apologies" for any misunderstanding.

It goes like this....

The Parallel port sucks for arcade controls, USB based controls are a lot better.

Moving along,

I'll check the page out.

[Le Chuck]

I don't really get what this does.  I mean, I'm all for macaroni and broken glass, but is this just creating batch files to run roms from a list - kind of a poor man's FE?

[ark_ader]

Does it work with 720 and normal joysticks?

[Le Chuck]

What is normal?  Who is 720?

  not a who but a what.

Yeah and it reminds me of Driverman...Oh dear!

[SavannahLion]

Jesus, there's a lot of batch files there. I would've switched to Perl or something else a little more manageable after about the first five or six batch files.

No, I didn't test it out. I'm not in the right environment for it. I just took a glance at the underlying source. Didn't really poke around too much.

I had no programming experience, so i just figured I would try to make the end result however I could. 

Perhaps trying to make an all-in-one solution for setting up everything related to emulation is a bit ambitious for somebody without any programing experience. 

I would suggest you try making some very simple programs first.  Perhaps some emulator-specific programs that would help fix an annoying configuration issue.  THEN move on to trying to solve everything.

(p.s.  It will never happen.  It has nothing to do with you and everything to do with the vastness of emulator and front-end choices out there.)

[SavannahLion]

The fact that he (assuming what we're assuming about him) went this far does attest to his ambition. If I had no formal training, no knowledge of other languages, armed with only a manual, this is probably exactly how I would've tackled a similar problem given a similar environment. 

Of course, at that time I didn't own a floppy drive and I had to write line numbers on every fricken line! 

Damn kids nowadays.

Make sure you go by 10's in case you need to add some code.

Hows your website driverman?

Did you add any more fictional charactersto your ranks?

Why would this be dm? This OP has been nothing but courteous and isn't pushing an agenda besides his program. It's not my bag but it might be useful for somebody out there. Don't troll the dude

Well if it isn't him then my comment will make no sense to him right?

Besides as far as I am concerned its DM so its OK to ask.

[Le Chuck]

You weren't overly concerned that it was DM last year.

Does it work with 720 and normal joysticks?

Anyone with a history with him knows that gag.

Like all the fun he had with poor Twisty at Mameworld.... 

[Le Chuck]

I'm well aware of his background. I just am of the opinion it's not terribly productive to accuse someone of being someone else with zero evidence.

[Howard_Casto]

Kind of strange to bump a Necro thread that he started himself with zero progress/announcements to make though. 

There's no point in picking on the poor guy regardless. 

[ark_ader]

What can I say, I am a glutten for DM punishment. 

If it is not him then there is no problem is there?

I'm not breaking any rules asking simple questions.

Leave him alone.  It is not nice to pick on someone is it?

If you do not stop I will rat on you to Le Chuck!

I'll ask you to not bring any animosity we have from another thread into this one... at least not without a link so I can remember why we piss each other off.

This is what it sounds like... when doves cry.

I didn't know you like Prince.

Huh?  I take it you didn't read the entire thread hmmm........?

What's left of it.

That reminds me, did all of you meet your puppy quota today?
