craiganderson Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Hello, I'm getting real close to finishing and thus releasing (if anybody wants it ) my work on SHarp X68000. It pretty much gets rid of multiple disk games for all of the "good games" and many more besides those as well. I've recorded tons of additional videos and wheels etc.....I think about 550 games so far. Anyway....in order to avoid multiple disk games I have been using games off of these HDS compliation disks from another forum. They normally load via a dos type menu so in order to avoid the dos type menu i am loading the games via "save states (XM6)" files ...works like a charm..one click...boom ....right to the game...no swapping disks... Because of this there are additional files (the save states) that I have already named and they are already linked to the correct position on the hard disk HDS compilation etc. I have also matched video names and wheel names to these new files etc.. Anyway.....here is my question: WHen I go to share this the easiest way for people to set this up will just to get a copy of my files (already named to match etc). I will be glad to share (not on here but somewhere else obviously) video files wheel files rom files etc but these are going to contain a mix of mine and others work (emumovies, gamesmame, dougan etc) You guys alright with me having a mediafire link or something to ALL of the wheels and videos I have (already named for my system).....even though they will contain other folks work (emumovies etc)/..... if not....i dont know how else to share this its a cool system (ps its not like im selling the stuff or something, just wanna be able to share) thanks craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THK Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'm not the person to give a clear answer, but I can only imagine that if you want to share/link to other peoples work like emumovies vids, you'll need to have permission of said people. I mean, I've been asked for my move list icons contained in HyperPause by another frond-end in a polite manner and I didn't mind and gave permission. Now it's nice they're enjoyed by more people. Were they just to rip it and use it without asking, I'd be very pissed off indeed. So basically if you have their permission for other ppls work, cool to share in your package (though I can't really comment on your way of distribution) If not, there is just no place here. (personally I think it would be alright to share it via a link and get somebody with no data cap to add it to the ftp, the main thing of not linking to other places is that we don't have the content here i.e. it can vanish very easily) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craiganderson Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 unfortunately i have never heard back from the video creator to see if i can include his/her videos in my setup download seems kinda silly that we think that we "own" videos we record of a game that someone else created.......

justinwebb Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Who cares, I would share anyways. Can't get anywhere in life without stepping on some toes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiganderson Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 i am currently uploading my renamed videos to the emumovies ftp but considering that folders keep getting erased does anybody have a problem with me also having the videos (some mine, some renamed from emumovies) being available on a mega download link as well? ..(on my little website, not here) ....although HERE would be even better in my opinion I cant possibly see any logical reason to not do that as well more people can use them more fun for all im not making any money on this or anything just trying to share my little contribution thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiganderson Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Now that people are setting up this system (http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?30199-Unofficial-Sharp-68000-wheels/page35), I have folks [nobody in that thread by the way] emailing me asking for the renamed videos to be shared via a download link because they cannot afford to join emumovies. I would like to be able to share these. That is the point of a "community" right? To share stuff. Help people. Increase enjoyment etc? Some of us are lucky in that paying to join websites is NOT an expense that we cannot afford. But that is not true for everybody. I have messaged the creator of the videos in an effort to ask permission to share them, but unfortunately I have not heard back from him as of yet. No biggie. He probably has "real life" going on..... Advice? thanks craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougan78 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I think everyone is friendly enough. It would seem to me if you just did it and if someone complains it is not like you cant remove it no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
