Wow. I just dont understand some people. SMH.
Apparently not… you guys get bent out of shape really easy on here. nothing hateful was said… but the SLG3000 got ALOT of feedback and testing on shmups.com 1st. SRK isn’t the end all be all of the world.
I didn’t realize I couldn’t give props the original.
I LOVE Toodles MC board. Repeat LOVE it. I didn’t say anything negative. I think Toodles products are ace. But… sorry I have to give the original credit out of loyalty and the fact the maker was so generous when taking feedback from a smaller forum.
I can’t BELIEVE you gave me an infraction for that considering the foul mouthed shit storms I have seen on here. Lame.
YEAH RIGHT don’t BS you are straight Trolling/Flame baiting with The statement
"This has all ready been done."
“Just buy the original”
If you spent 2 min’s reading the post you would know that a simalar product has been discussed there are even pictures of it in this very thread and I have always recommend SLG3000 to people who are looking for one right now
You don’t see Toodles or others going to threads saying “This has all ready been done.” to them for making a multi console PCB even though he has had a similar design for years that does the exact same thing
It totally was a small jab… I confess that. But nothing to get that bent out of shape over. Is that really the worst you’ve seen on this forum.
Nope… but folks other than toodles have and been far more nasty about it.
You guys take things WAY to serious on here.
If it were anybody other than Toodles no infraction would have been given.
I’m allowed to give my preference aren’t I? Regardless of my reasons. I didn’t curse anyone out in the process. I think it was more b/c I didn’t kiss any ass or walk on egg shells while doing it.
StriderNC, you are not doing the SLG3000, shmups forums, or yourself any credit with this behavior.
Damn Toodles, I’m deff gonna have to pick one of these up if its less than the slg
I think it was more of the fact that you bashed him in his own thread, now if you want to talk about it in yours, knock yourself out. Your comment was neither helpful or a cause for further communication. You don’t see Phreakazoid in Toodles TE Kitty thread going OH HEY GUYS LOOK AT MINE ITS ALREADY OUT. Competition is good and causes evolution of products in directions most people don’t think of.
What preference? you did not even give a preference. I just wish you would look at look at the thread before making random statements. we have discussed the different directions that this PCB is going but that does not even matter
Its not like this is even a sale thread
well if you want to get technical I actually started the thread & currently maintain the thread title it started just ask people if anyone had tried something like this. This all came about because I ran arcoss a tutorial on mmmonkey’s web site
but now I do consider this thread devoted to **Toodles Version **of a scanline generator
I forgot to comment on this earlier that is funny whats also funny I looked on urban dictionary even though I knew what my typo ment already and found this definition
[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=11px][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=18px][FONT=Helvetica][SIZE=18px][FONT=Helvetica]5.[/FONT][/SIZE] **scat **=[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE]Sex involving poopy love.
and in a sentence “I want to scat with you mommy”.
That’s some funny shit I mean funny scat[/FONT]
You were (whether you realize it or not) trolling on Toodles work. It was tantamount to saying that he shouldn’t even do this since Jochen already has his own.
This is Tech Talk, we run things a bit differently here compared to the rest of SRK.
Fuck that. Had VOLTECH shit on Laugh and told folks to get the VAS-HG instead of the OMNI in the same manner, heck yeah I would have infracted him. People know I don’t play favorites here. I’ve infracted regulars and folks I consider friends for less (including some important members of the community).
The right to have an opinion comes with the responsibility to respect others. What you typed was rather disrespectful to Toodles and dare I say Tech Talk.
Well, on the bright note, it has helped fuel my drive. I’ve got one working with a Dreamcast VGA box at the moment, and will play around with that upscaler and check everything through an Oscope tomorrow. So, progress is being made. Like RosserRooster, I too have to have the power come from the vsync, which is beyond weird based on the signal descriptions I saw previously. Maybe things will make more sense under a scope.
And I’d just like to say, Im tickled the three way slider worked they way I wanted. Silly, I know, but it’s cool to me that my presumptions of how the circuit worked were right, and adding an ‘off’ switch was that easy.
Geesh. This thread seems to be a drama magnet. Please refer to this answer given regarding the SLG3000 and the entire point of this project:
The SLG is great! ArcadeForge has some quality kit available (I have a SyncStrike, and it’s fantastic), but this is about having an alternative product available. Do you think MadCatz gets all butt-hurt and weepy whenever Hori comes out with a new stick?
I mean seriously; 5 years ago, products for a niche market like this didn’t even exist, and now we have TWO choices! You should be stoked, not scatting on it.
Jep, and this previous post motivated me to do the SLG Scart project. So now you have even three choices. alternative products are always good, I agree.
HAHA “Scating on it” I like you inside joke there buddy good game
so you received your sync strike thats cool have you tried the scaler yet mine is working great the only little hiccup I have seen is with the bright flashes and cyclops in marvel looks kinda crazy in his optic region
I built a plexi like the one for the generator pictured earlier in the thread
I never did receive the scat cable I mean scart cable from electric quarter on ebay, that store is garbage. I had to file a complaint to get my money back. I emailed them a million times and nothing, anyway I ended up making one out of my s-video cable thats working great it it may not look pretty but it works well. I’m, just pissed I can’t compare graphics between S-video and scaled RGB
Thanks Bencao I will pass that on to toodles I still recommend all of your products to people especially to anyone in Europe everything you have it top notch
Had a lull at work, decided to make the rounds on the forums I frequent:
http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=33454&start=750
So, seriously, WTF is up with the people on Shmups being jerks about this? Strider77/StriderNC obviously isn’t aware of the snippy trolling overtone present in his post, but it was there. Getting infracted by Dev isn’t the end of the world, y’know? As Dev said: Tech Talk holds itself to a higher standard. That is why it’s the only section of SRK I ever visit.
And Bencao74 = What’s with the harsh words about Toodles being nothing more than a copycat? Everyone in this thread has been nothing but cool to you, and now you’re acting like a child about it. Case in point:
"ouch, some heavy words there. Never thought that the guys are so sensible out there. Its just a copycat. Okay, it
s perhaps it getting odd, that after ARC EYES the KInserts project follows, after TEasy Strike the project TE Kitty followed, after RGB Sparky he project FGWidget followed, after SLG3000 the project T-SLG followed and so on and on. I was tempted to post the SLG Scart in that thread. Why loosing time to do the next copycat.

DO not post your games there

"
If your goal was to lose endorsement of your products from folks on SRK one person at a time: mission accomplished. I will never buy from you again.
What I want to know is why there is this kind of shitting on other peoples products when we should all be happy that folks are actually making this shit.
ehm, youre mistaken. For me the word copycat is not negative. I
m sure that Toodles takes a quick look over the SLG Scart and if he likes it he might get inspired by some ideas and perhaps optimize it. Honestly, Ive got inspired by Toodles when I was aware of his work about the UPCB. He was sharing all this great stuff. And then I
ve done my copycat Dual Strike, which summarizes Imp and Cuthulu. We set it to open source, too. After that some great project like TEasy, TEasy Strike, Dual Strike SMD came up. All this projects are public here and not protected somehow. As I said before, it`s good that there are alternatives. So again, let it stop here, the was no insult about the product quality or in any case.
I’m sorry, but most of the comments are directed towards StriderNC’s post which just comes out wrong in the context of the thread.
I mean look at it:
The tone basically says that Toodles stuff isn’t worth the time and either he should just give up and/or people shouldn’t buy it.
EDIT: @ Jochen,
You do realize that your post on the shmups forum sounds pretty negative towards Toodles, right?
