Speaking of VICE and sharing details for technical discussion - "we" still do this. A ton of insights and research work i am doing for Chameleon for example goes into VICE and is publicly available for everyone. And there is this pdf i made about the undocumented opcodes, which also in large parts comes from this kind of work. So there is stuff that can - and is - shared, technical details. However actual software or hardware - no :) -- http://hitmen.eu http://ar.pokefinder.org http://vice-emu.sourceforge.net http://magicdisk.untergrund.net A man who won't lie to a woman has very little consideration for her feelings. <Olin Miller>Received on 2022-05-06 17:01:20
