Whoa Bad Santa, chill out man

According to a not-so-unknown hungarian "coder-god" it is not easy to patch these games, like he is writing on his homepage:

For example:
"In meantime 'competition' offers so called 'Universal' system - what solves only one thing - loading data from hard disk instead floppies.  Some people think that it is usable by all games now - complete wrong, but blame people behind it because of their attitude and way how present things."

And of course there are only morons that report mistakes or problems as his software is the best there is:
"No complicated install, setup, not sensitive on Timer C, relocatible RAM pos, etc. It is reliable - no problems reported (of course that we not take as 'reporting' some writings around by jelauos morons and people who has no clue how things work, or are even lazy to read instructions)."

And last but not least, he proves that only his patching program is good and the rest are unexperienced, noobish and untalented pricks:
"Later adaptations offer:  Photochrome picture of cover on STE (on ST too, but with reduced quality), often some game cheats, Gamex - possibility to save gamestate on disk and continue later, fast work without huge RAM area swaps (as is by so called 'Universal...' )."

I really don´t know in what reality he lives but stealing some of your patches and just removing the intro and taking a slight change here and there, claiming that he did all the work and better than everyone else is really pathetic.

Sorry to come up with this again, but i was visiting his homepage the first time today and i got a bit angry when i read his hypocritical introduction.

Well you have to see something to cheer you up before the game crashes and all your data is trashed - you're going to need it afterwards

Intrigued, I went and read his new introduction.

I don't think it needs much commenting on. On the one hand you have a crew of experienced (20+ years) ST sceners, with a universal loading system that is freely available, fully commented and proven stable on every system we can get our hands on.

On the other hand you have a guy who solders spectrums together who won't publish his code (because then you could compare it to ULS...), makes bodgy crashware and fixes bugs in his own driver which according to him never existed in the first place.... (HD corruption bug fix, anyone?)

I'll leave it in your hands

the guy's a cunt... pure and simple

or maybe I should sanitise this as it is the Season of Goodwill and cheer.

ho ho ho
