Anybody got the 1.7 beta of PJ64 yet? I just donated to the PJ64 cause, and figured I would download it cause I could. I don't know how to install it as it doesn't come in a nifty installer package. I've tried just replacing the files in my current C:\Program Files\Project64 1.6 folder, and that didn't really work. Now I just get memory allocation errors when I load a ROM. Anyone got any suggestions?

I haven't got a PJ64 1.7 Beta, if U send it to me I'll get into it for U ;)...

Sorry, if you want 1.7 you'll have to donate like I did. I will not leak it, and you should be ashamed for suggesting for me to do so. I figured out how to install it, the instructions were on pj64.net, duh. I pretty much did it right the first time, 1.7 beta just isn't working for my system for some reason, and noone at pj64.net has figured out my problem yet.

I don't like to pay for Beta's, or any emulators for that matter, hence the cracked Magic Engine that I have ;).

I'll wait for the official 1.7 release, it will be bugfree and free of charge ;).

And no, since I'm a bloody internet pirate I do not feel ashamed for asking U this :p...

I didn't donate to get the 1.7 version, I donated because it is a good cause to donate too. I'm a bloody pirate too, arggg matey;)

Arr, there be multiple uses for a single plank, mateys. (Let's not get creative....)

Or you could make an MS-DOS batch file and tell Kameo to run it after he finishes helping you and the batch file will sneakily delete the beta from his hard disk. Oops, but I blew away that idea.Anybody got the 1.7 beta of PJ64 yet? I just donated to the PJ64 cause, and figured I would download it cause I could. I don't know how to install it as it doesn't come in a nifty installer package. I've tried just replacing the files in my current C:\Program Files\Project64 1.6 folder, and that didn't really work. Now I just get memory allocation errors when I load a ROM. Anyone got any suggestions?Maybe it's because you didn't replace entirely everything in the folder, and v1.7 screws up when it reads the remaining fragments of v1.6 in your directory. All I can say is try installing it to C:\Program Files\Project64 v1.7 instead of v1.6 in a new directory, and then maybe it'll work.

I'm sure if you wanted 1.7 that badly, you could just run a search through torrents or maybe even Limewire. I don't even want it until the site says they are done with it and it isn't going to suck. Besides, it'll be free then. You could probably even hack the site to get the emulator.

Iconoclast, why are you always talking about DOS stuff? Do you just know a lot about it, or does it have some advantage? If you know a lot about it, you should teach me, as I've never really had an opportunity or a reason to learn about it.

Dos Stuff is pretty simple for the most part, I was hacking DOS when I was driving a power wheel jeep back it 1987. Just takes patience, as it is such a Manual processs, lotsa typing!

ANYWAY, how much did you have to Donate to get the v1.7 Beta?
I have been pondering doing this to get it, I hear it wont be released for a long time.

Well, I was born in '88, so maybe that's why I don't know DOS, lol...You have to donate $20.00. If you all want it that badly, I can get it. I am known among my friends as the kid who finds things on the Internet if nobody else can get them, among other things. Or something. anyhow, I can look for it if you all want. My good computer though, the one with Limewire and such doesnt have internet, so I am mainly without my tools on this one. So, it will be harder. If you all wait, I can try to get it later, when I have internet again....

Being born in '88, I'm surprised you don't know more about DOS than I do. DOS was around long before Windows was invented. In Windows XP, they took some things about DOS out, though. I know the basics, I guess. If there's someone who doesn't know how to copy and paste files when they need to when you're helping them and you require them to do it, you can just upload a DOS batch file that does the work for them and tell them to click on a link to it. Another example: I'm always trying to get CM to run a batch file! This is the contents of the batch file:

DEL C:\PROGRA~1\PROJEC~1\ROMS\MAJORA~1.ZIP
(Deltetes Majora's Mask.zip from C:\Program Files\Project64 v1.6\ROMs)

But he won't run it or look at it! He just thinks it's another video and is too lazy to open it. It's only 35 bytes in file size! Dude, that's not even a single kilobyte; it should download quickly even on his PC. But he never clicks on the link no matter what method of persuasion I use. It's not that he's not gullible; he's too lazy. I gave him that Majora's Mask ROM via PM a couple of months ago, an action I regret doing. So I tried to get him to click on a link to that batch file to sneakily delete Majora's Mask from his ROM directory. He won't even know it was deleted 'cause the command prompt closes right away after deletion. Anyway, if you want, I can tell you a few things about using DOS.I never run any batch files, so that won't work :p...I'm sure jambog could trick you into running one. What if he says it's required to run straight after the first time you run a batch file? Although, Kameo, you can always right click the batch file and select the Edit command to see the contents and guess what it'll do if you open it.

Actually, if you recall, it IS because I'm not gullible. I know you can't do the things you claimed to have done, so I made a bogus filepath to throw you off. Too lazy? If I'm not interested enough, i'm not going to download it! Why would I DL something I have no use for, especially at my speed? Lazy? How you can be lazy on a computer? The computer does almost all of the work! Regret doing? Bah! Get off your high horse. You do not pick and choose who plays what, and you never will. Majora's Mask is not some holy game that only worthy people can play, so shut up, garo!!! If you want to know, I didn't even use that link you gave me. If you can check, then do so, because no one used it. I don't even have the ROMs on my computer anymore. Actually, I never did. Yep, this is true! No, not because I'm lazy, its because I don't want them. If I did, I would go get them myself. No, I am not wrong for not liking the same things you like. How immature to not be able to handle the fact that different people have different tastes! No taste is 'right.' Saying someone is "blind, simply put." for not liking your favorite game is pure bullpoo. Yep, you will get me for that, too. Also, if you even try to pull a fast one, all of my ROMS and games are backed up at an undisclosed location. I thought you were sorry you ever tried that on me. Bah! I'm gonna go hold your avatar hostage........

Yes,teach me DOS now, por favor. DEL C:\*_* is my favorite command, you know.

Actually, if you recall, it IS because I'm not gullible. I know you can't do the things you claimed to have done, so I made a bogus filepath to throw you off. Prove that it was a wrong filepath. I'll bet you're lying. It really WAS the file path for those ROMs...on your laptop. You're too lazy to look at my files, not afraid that they will delete your Zelda ROMs until the time I first tried it, so you didn't know. The seventh lie I remember you saying. I do the things I've claimed to have done, FOO. Tell me something I said I could do that I really can't. You can't think of anything, can you? For the infinith frickin' time, once again, you have said something about me that is wrong about me but true about yourself. You said you could upload a save file for DK64, but I know you can't do it, because when I said do it, you didn't do it. You are the fraud here. Too lazy? If I'm not interested enough, i'm not going to download it! Interested? What ARE you even interested in, anyway? Nothing we can do, probably. Anything you are interested in isn't for you. Why won't you download it? Because you're lazy and won't show any curiosity for anything we've uploaded just for the heck of it. It's really not that hard to download something. I listened to that perversive Mentos Theme Song, and I'm like...WHATEVER. Apparently we have different ideas of good music. Why would I DL something I have no use for, especially at my speed? Same thing here. What have you ever uploaded that we had to see except for things we asked you to upload? That point you just said is to my advantage, so why don't you just delete those Zelda ROMs I sent you? You have no use for them; they are for people who can comprehend, not for one as ignorant, humanly sinful and careless as yourself. Lazy? How you can be lazy on a computer? The computer does almost all of the work! More work than you'll ever do. I don't care. If you weren't so lazy, you would download what we uploaded. Regret doing? Yes, regret doing! Why are you repeating EVERYTHING I said in questions? What's your problem? Bah! Get off your high horse. You do not pick and choose who plays what, and you never will. You are only assuming again, which means you think you know everything. For example, I know better than you if I think I try to pick and choose who plays what, because I am me. Yet you think this is true? After how optional I made this seem. You just try to find reasons to scold and chide me, don't you? Majora's Mask is not some holy game that only worthy people can play, so shut up, garo!!! I am not Christian. Christians are heathen. Anyone can play it, but nobody on this planet except me liked the game. They all liked that stupid Zelda OOT better. If you want to know, I didn't even use that link you gave me. Doesn't surprise me. If you can check, then do so, because no one used it. Trying to make me feel alone? FD and pizzaman used it. You don't know that no one used it; you're assuming and lying to make me feel upset. I am used to a world without friends, and I sometimes want it to stay that way. You can't penetrate me by saying things like that. You are the traitorous sheep around here. Out of the four of us, only you are foolish, so I suggest you start learning. At least THEY have the common sense to just download my stuff for the heck of it whether they need it or not. Who cares if you need it? Why are you so paranoid? I don't even have the ROMs on my computer anymore. Actually, I never did. Yes you did; you asked for them. I am not that stupid. Sorry to disappoint you, but I am not...THAT...gullible. I remember everything you've ever said to me; I keep track of this stuff. How dare you expect me to be so STUPID to believe that? Yep, this is true! No, not because I'm lazy, its because I don't want them. Yes you do; you asked for them. If I did, I would go get them myself. You said it's either my way or the Google way. Again, saying you can do things that you really can't. And blaming this theory on me, of course. I have no idea how you think of negative things about yourself and, not realizing they apply to you, put them on other people. You are obsolette with ROM requests. You would never have Zelda N64 ROMs if it weren't for me. Unless you asked pizzaman or FD, which I know you're too lazy to bring up, or if Kameo was nice enough. I'll bet he would ask you to get it yourself. No, I am not wrong for not liking the same things you like. Saying things that are true about yourself to other people again, I see. We all have our own tastes, but of course you like to prove us wrong and be right yourself. CM: "'Sigh' should be in asterisks." I'll never forget that stupid quote. Only you put interjectives and actions in asterisks. They can really go in any symbol; you're just too damn picky. We can use whatever our taste wants. Once again, you should talk to yourself more often. How immature to not be able to handle the fact that different people have different tastes! You misdefine immaturity to state that. No taste is 'right.' Saying someone is "blind, simply put." for not liking your favorite game is pure bullpoo. That's different. Zelda MM is far more comprehensive than Zelda OOT. All they care about is the gameplay organization in OOT and ignore everything that's good in MM for no good reason. It is a misunderstood game and a pure fact. If people can tell me MM sucks, I can say OOT sucks more. We are all entitled to our own opinions, whether they are true or not. Grow up, already. Yep, you will get me for that, too. Also, if you even try to pull a fast one, all of my ROMS and games are backed up at an undisclosed location. I don't care. I just want those Zelda ROMs off of your hard disk. Knowing you, you didn't back those up. I thought you were sorry you ever tried that on me. Well, I was a little remorsecully cautious and slightly sensitive about deleting those ROMs, but seeing as you didn't need them anymore and how I have the right to take back what I gave...I should. Bah! Humbug! That's all I can ever hear from a sheep is Baa. I'm gonna go hold your avatar hostage........

Yes,teach me DOS now, por favor. DEL C:\*_* is my favorite command, you know. Absolutely not. That's not even a working command, anyway. Unless you have a file on your hard disk that has an underscore (_) in the middle of it. Why, so you can delete files from my hard disk? That won't work; you can't write to my hard disk. I can't; you can't. Why would I teach you batch scripting after what you just said? I will continue to help you out however I can as a friend, but this is for Fierce Deity.

BONZAI! Another grand response from Iconoclast! (Sorry, I can't contain myself!):D

Ummm....If you can find a way for me to prove I don't have the ROMs, then I'll do it.

Hey, did you get those quotes? Or are you unadmitfully losing? What about that forum meaning thingie admin PM'd you about? I want to know what happened.

Okay dokie, I'll PM you the links to both ROMs after I'm done here, Mrs. Doubtfire. (Hee hee!)

Actually, the games are for anyone who can afford it.

E: is my disc drive, genious.

The Mentos theme song is supposed to be humorous. FD likes it. IT FREAKIN ROCKSSSSSS!!!!!

Aw, fish poo! Are we ever going to drop this 'assumption' crap? It's getting kinda stupid....okay, very stupid.

I ain't some monster who is bent on making you feel sad. I never get into arguments with the other users. IDk why we conflict so. Just let bygones be bygones....

Why won't you teach me? Tsk. Not wanting to share your ROMs and knowledge, you selfish man! (No, you did not copyright 'selfish, so I can still use it.) I thought '*_*' meant all files!

Christians are heathen? What a massive stereotype you have said! No proof, no reference, no anything! For shame.

You just try to find reasons to scold and chide me, don't you?

You scold me about not downloading stuff and not liking Zelda! ....sry....

Hey, how'z about you stop counting how many times I lie (humans do it at least 20 times a day, studies show, and you do it too.) and thinking about how much you resent me and reusing the same quote over and over as a point (doesn't work anymore) and how much I don't deserve a Zelda game (preposterous, I think) and let's get back to topic?

How'z about a 'draw' offer, although I hardly see how you calling me gullible and lazy is not asking for trouble. No one is perfect, Iconoclast. Let the person without sin throw the first stone! See? You spelled obsolete incorrectly! We all make mistakes, and that's no assumption!

BONZAI! Another grand response from Iconoclast! (Sorry, I can't contain myself!):D

Ummm....If you can find a way for me to prove I don't have the ROMs, then I'll do it. Not unless you'll still tell me the directory of your Nintendo 64 ROMs and if you have them zipped or not and you're willing to open a batch file I can upload to detect if you have the ROMs. We have to both trust each other on that one. But you must tell me this: Are all of your ROMs in the same directory (or at least some of them)?

Hey, did you get those quotes? Or are you unadmitfully losing? I told you to read the Xbox Emulation thread. Look at what Kameo said. Get it yourself. What about that forum meaning thingie admin PM'd you about? I want to know what happened. He said he designed the PC Gaming/Emulation forum for playing PC games. I have only one problem with that: Emulation is fake-executing an environment on another machine. Nintendo 64 games are not formatted as EXEs for Windows to just run and play, you have to design an emulator that can fake-run them and simulate the actual Nintendo 64 games. Look 'emulation' up at Dictionary.com (definition #3). Emulation is not playing PC games on your PC as they are not emulated. I think we shouldn't be so strict on which forum a thread is in because this gets complicated. It does matter, however, but I started this confusion and I'm willing to give my fight up (if I didn't already in that N64 emulator thread).

Okay dokie, I'll PM you the links to both ROMs after I'm done here, Mrs. Doubtfire. (Hee hee!) Oh, yeah, this I gotta see. Do not give me a link to ROMHustler.net because I know you don't know how to get the ROMs from there.

Actually, the games are for anyone who can afford it. They are illegal to download, and they are for no one's PC use except for Nintendo or its registered users.

E: is my disc drive, genious. So? Did I say it wasn't, genious? Why'd you bring that worthless point up?

The Mentos theme song is supposed to be humorous. FD likes it. IT FREAKIN ROCKSSSSSS!!!!!

Aw, fish poo! Are we ever going to drop this 'assumption' crap? It's getting kinda stupid....okay, very stupid. Maybe when you learn not to misunderstanding other people like me, I will stop *****ing.

Why won't you teach me? Tsk. Not wanting to share your ROMs and knowledge, you selfish man! (No, you did not copyright 'selfish, so I can still use it.) I thought '*_*' meant all files! No, *.* means WhateverYourFileNameIs.WhateverYourFileExtensionIs . *_* means any file with an underscore in the middle of its name.

Christians are heathen? What a massive stereotype you have said! No proof, no reference, no anything! For shame. I just said that to offend you. Nice job! I didn't really mean that.

You scold me about not downloading stuff and not liking Zelda! ....sry....

OMG! You lie 20 times a day? Damn! I have never lied to anyone on this website once. There is just BARELY such thing as white lies. You really should never lie to people; there isn't a reason to do it. There's PRETTY MUCH always a way around lying to people. It's unnecessary and sometimes can result negatively.

I'll PM the filepath to you after I'm done. Don't betray me, now!

Look it up myself, huh? Okay, let's see here....

You've got to be kidding...it says emulating... load XBE file! Looks like they can emulate! I'll believe you, though.

Then I said this in response to you saying that it looks like it can emulate:

Looks can be decieving, Iconoclast. Thank you for believing me.

Then, Kameo came in with this while quoting me on that last quote:


Well, since U brag so much about Ur PC, prove me wrong, run X-Box and NGC at fullspeed on Ur PC, record it and show it to us. U R the one who's wrong here, try for Urself and U'll see.

If it really was possible to run X-Box on Ur PC it would be all over the X-Box community, ever wondered why it's not?? Same goes for NGC and PS2, it's not possible, yet...

Confound you, man! Where did I say that you could emulate Xbox? WHERE? TELL ME!!

Then you came in with this:

Yeah, CM. Why don't you take some screenshots? Where's the evidence? Film your Xbox gameplay.

WTH!?!?!?! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, BUB? I never said I could.

Hopefully now you will stop misquoting me on this.

.7z format? easy peasy. just download, then open it with 7-zip, and extract it. Ther may be more than one version of the game in there! It's just like WinRAR. Another site I know uses .7z compression.

Oh, that's right. I made a mistake. DEL C:\*.* is my favorite command. It is cool!

I brought that E: stuff up because that's where I said my N64 ROMs were in when you asked me last time.

Why did you want to offend me? I don't get offended....

I hardly lie silence says it all. Being a creative person, I can usually make up a misleading truth within a second or two.

Hey, if you can just say something and move on, than so can I! Spelling is easy, anyway....

I accept your NobodyWonAndThisIsJustAnArgumentThatAllowedUsToCle arSomeThingsUp offer, but only because I am heroic! Ha hah!

For the last time, talk to Kameo about it. I got the idea from him, anyway. You do tend to mention your laptop every once in a while, so it sounds like to like to brag and show it off. I think Kameo just wanted to disprove your laptop or whatever. Talk to him about it, not me.

What's a batch file anyway?

What's a batch file anyway?
It's a DOS-related program that is sort of like a list of instructions for the computer to do. The tasks are programmed, and then when you run it, the computer does (or tries to do) what is in the batch file. A flaw here is that you must know the filepath for some files beforehand for some things. Running a batch file (especially a big one) looks like the traditional black background and white text of the command prompt, and it is doing stuff by itself. If it is a big one and you have a particularly fast computer and the tasks aren't too taxing for the computer, you will see thousands of characters appearing in a hurry. Questions?

It's a DOS-related program that is sort of like a list of instructions for the computer to do. The tasks are programmed, and then when you run it, the computer does (or tries to do) what is in the batch file. A flaw here is that you must know the filepath for some files beforehand for some things. Running a batch file (especially a big one) looks like the traditional black background and white text of the command prompt, and it is doing stuff by itself. If it is a big one and you have a particularly fast computer and the tasks aren't too taxing for the computer, you will see thousands of characters appearing in a hurry. Questions?
Okay I understand.
How do you make a install type DOS file. I know that on a lot of game RIPs, there is a DOS compressing file thingy that makes a lot of data compressed really, really good. I had this game, Hitman: Blood Money, that was compressed into 250 megabytes from 2 GB. How the heck did they do that?

I know! It's like magic! I experienced that with Star Wars: Battlefront, Sonic Adventure DX, and GTAIII! Those are batch files, btw. I love them! IDk how they did it.... I also don't know how to make that thingie. Ask Iconoclast.

Iconoclast, I don't see why CM can't just keep the file. Why do you try to delete his things? It is a great game, and anyone who can get their hands on it should keep it. As for me, I have all my stuff in programs files so I can easily System restore them. lol. anyways, yes, teach me DOS.

I don't understand that either....:confused:
Seems kinda greedy....in a way.
Unfortunately, I don't have the game as of now, anyhow.

What do you guys want to know about DOS?

First off it should be known that windows xp does not contain DOS, in any way shape or form. the "command prompt", contrary to the belief of most, is NOT DOS. its not leven like dos, it cant even load a dos software. most people think its dos, because some dos command still work in it, but they are not actual dos commands anymore, they are are just windows xp commands that look like dos.

True dos boots from 3 main files, command.com, autoexec.bat, config.sys
thats all you really need aside from drivers to load dos on a PC.(yuou can even make your own with ms-dos editor.

In windows 95 through ME, (95/95usb/98/98se/me) these files wer basically changed to a file called dosstart.bat, which loads a basic dos fuction. But this file can be modified to be a fully working dos system, once your load win 9x and restart it in MS dos Mode.

Win XP can run a little bit of dos software, but very little, trust me on this, I have lot of dos games and such, some I have had for like 18 years, and almost none of them work properly in XP. It cant allocate or emulate DOS sound DMA channels, himem functions,(but they claim it does but it seldom works). no dos mouse support, no dos VESA support, horrible FAT 16 file structure support/emulation, face it XP sucks for trying to run dos stuff.

If you really want to learn dos, find an old PC ( I have a server cabinet full of them myself) and get MS-DOS version 6.22, with the supplemental "disk 4".

Bottom line: windows 3x or 9x cant exist without dos, and win XP just think of dos as an unnnessary anchient PC language, like some people think about Latin. Not to mention running dos programs in XP can really be a RAM hog.

I hope they fix it with the next windows, Because trust me, Dos Box, D-fend,and all that jazz SUCKS BALLS compared to the real DOS!

DarthBrady, you should read this thread I started on booting in DOS using a bootable floppy when you have Windows XP.

I'm not always after CMs things, just Majora's Mask.zip. FD, that's my point. He is too ignorant to have that game, and it is very good. But that was what I was thinking before. Now I don't know what to think. Forget about it, you can keep the ROM. Though I know you already deleted it.

If you guys get confused, I can teach both of you. But I am on vacation to see relatives this week. Anyone know it's my birthday today? Anyway, I am currently in Deleware and may not get back to any of you for quite a while.

That's cool. I know how it is. Late happy birthday by the way.

I don't thik CM is too ignorant to have it. I think he might actually like it. It isn't a bad game. Even if he doesn't like it, he can still have it. I have some games I don't really like. Like this Monster Truck Madness 64 game. Or something to that effect. But, yes, I'd really like you to teach me. I try to learn as much about computers as I possibly can. I know some HTML already, and I learn more and more of it as soon as I can. I also know a little bit of CSS, and javascript, an dI know a few random things in windows command prompt. Password changes and such. Restoring from a previous registry in version of windows below xp. etcetera. Anything any of you can teach would be greatly appreciated. Sadly, I just upgraded my second pc from Windows 98 to Windows XP. I only find out too late. It's not like I have a 98 installation disk either.

So you didn't like the monster truck game, eh? My memory is so foggy about that that I don't remember if I liked it that much anyway...

I have games I don't like, either. Like Tom Clancy's The Sum of All Fears, which is really a bad Rainbow Six clone. And then there's Driv3r. Most of my games I like, though.

What?! I'm not ignorant! I'm just as good as you two....

I don't care anymore. Let him have the ROMs. I was simply paranoid about it, yet I no longer care. He didn't like Majora's Mask anyway. That's sort of what I meant by 'ignorant'. Forget about it.

News: One of the beta testers for Project64 1.7 leaked the beta version to someone. The URL of this leak is unknown, but is also futile, as you can see below.

The source of this news is from here:

Oh, that sucks. When do you guys think the actual release will be?

Iconoclast

I'd say not anytime soon, but not too far way, either. Everyone likes to make up rumors of when it's going to be released to make themselves look smart, when nobody really knows for sure. It is said by the Project64 team, however, that their current progress is that they've made what they call 'substantial' improvements in Project64 1.7, and zilmar has finally got a working PJ64 core going, so it sounds, to me, like about 40 to 80 percent done. They also say, however, that the next version's full release is not expected before 2008.

Don't ask questions like that on emutalk.net, though. They hate it when you ask when the next version of an emulator is going to be released, and they even made a rule on that. I kind of agree with them. It is rather ignorant to impatiently linger, waiting for a next version's release, when those emulator programmers are working their asses off. We're in a better position then they are, likely, since they're the ones who are doing all the work, not us.

In fact, there is one thing we can do to speed up the progress of Project64 1.7: Make a donation to the Project64 team. (http://www.pj64.net/main/donations.html) They think it's a great way for us to support them, and if I could, I'd donate 30 bucks to them. But I'm not an adult, and I don't have PayPal. If you donate at least 20 bucks to them, they will give you access to all the beta versions of Project64 1.7. It may seem worthless for the time when the full version of 1.7 comes out, but like I said, these people are working hard, and I agree that users should be donating to them.

Well I'm not really in a rush for Project64 1.7, but I really do want Pcsx2 0.9.2 to come out. It's been more than 3 months, and I am getting impatient. Not that they people that are doing a bad job or anything, but it's just that I can't play any games at full speed until the next version comes out.

who leaked it?One of the beta testers who went by the user name of Lerroy Jenkins, but that was under the PJ64 beta ID, not EmuTalk.net, so its likely no one knows the real answer to that question. This is supposedly not his real name in life, as I hear that was a World of Warcraft name. The user is anonymous to most people, but the Project64 team says they have a good idea of who. I don't know if that means they know who. One thing they don't know is why, and I am much more interested as to the why this double-agent beta tester leaked it rather than the who. Was it for revenge, or were there other intentions on his/her mind?

Whatever. The most the Project64 team could do, even if they know who leaked it, is ban the user from their home site.

Again, though, I'm not so concerned as to who did it. Just some double-agent betatester. A betatester is someone the Project64 team gives trust to for testing the beta application of their current 1.7 work. I'd rather know why the user betrayed them, or just download the goddamn thing.

Only, I don't think it is on anyone"s site, because I Googled the living **** out of it, and the only way to get it is to use Usenet, which you have to give your personal info and where you live and a bunch of crap in order to be able to browse.
