smsblast for srb2 2.0?

[Sonic Destiny]

Ok, SMSBlast Sucks, The Boost thing is just a cheap affect in fraps, its all a joke.

The boost was very much real, just not the effect that surrounds sms. But the Boost itself is real its under special ability.

Eggmanfan can't make anything above sub-par sprites, but he can code an EXE.

I call plagarism.

Spriting and coding are two completely different fields, dear. A coder is nowhere near being an artist by default - something I can personally attest to. Now, I'll be the first to admit I know almost nothing of the guy and what he did, but being a bad spriter certaintly isn't something I'd consider proof of, of all things, code theft.

What? Plagarism is the stealing of someone's work and calling it your own. Super Mystic Sonic is crediting Eggmanfan with coding the EXE for SMSBlast. If he didn't make it, it's miscrediting someone, not plagarising.

To dig up a Youtube PM he sent me...

As said in the SMSunleashed readme, Eggman891 made this exe, because I'm not so superskilled at coding myself. (Got his permission to release, by the way)

Are we talking about the same person here?

 

[Link Mah Boi]

Im afraid we are.

Also like to point out I looked through some of the comments to that and

Also, it seems everyone dislikes him because the wad is overpowered. I loved the wad when I first started playing, because it was my first step to adjusting to playing as Sonic. While now I never use him, I think being overpowered can be good for newbies to help them handle things better. And if I remember correctly, one of his wads actually powered up a lot of robots in-game to decrease the over-powered SMS.

If you call making a timer soc(Making enemys faster) which is hated by most members here. Making it more challenging. Then I guess so. But it doesn't really make it harder, it just makes it annoying.

I think hes talking about Eggman.

He's hinting that eggmanfan, which he views as barely being competent enough to make decent sprites (and thus blindly assuming that he probably can't code for junk), probably didn't exactly create all the code in the .exe as his own and may have 'retrieved' it from another source whilst claiming as his own.
I personally don't know or care. Simple modifications to the source are a lot easier than most people think, honestly.

What's the appeal in this modification, anyways? A mediocre boost ability isn't that amazing, while it probably shouldn't be too hard to port either... Let's just jack up maxmove :)

I can't sprite either, but I can code alright.

The shield switch would be nice, and honestly, the boost might be too, if they were made balanced.

Knowing SMS, they weren't.

You're comparing knowledge of programming to skill in sprite art? Seriously? It's like saying someone "can't ride a bike, but can compose a piece of high quality music - I call plagiarism."

Silly.

Anyway...

SMS made an exe?

 

[ChaseSP]

No. SMS did not make the exe. His friend Eggman891 coded it and was supposed to be PRIVATE.

 

[Sky The Destroyer]

But he said that for 2.0 he's gonna make a EXE HIMSELF.

Guys. I credited Eggman891(NOT Eggmanfan) in both readme, Youtube description, and the comments that claimed I took it as my own. True, at first I took him wrong and DID upload it without permission, thinking I DID have it. But we talked later and I'd remove the exe from upload for him if he would NOT give the permission. But he did, and credit IS given.

As for the next exe...honestly, I don't know how well I'll be able to. I told people I'd give it a shot, but I won't be promising a thing. If it does, then this version at least will contain a different version number, as I forgot to previous time. Couldn't compile it previous time due to errors as soon as I found out, and I didn't want to go trough the trouble if 2.0 would be there in a few weeks anyways.

But yeah...it's basically a discussion about a MIGHT-come thing, nothing to get hyped up about in a positive or negative way.
