DemoBase 64
Optic and me talked about a demobase project on IRC.
I think it's time now, while disks are still working.
Let's assemble a team, and divide the work, and get crackin'! :-)
?
There is a lot of collectors, and I heard Graham has a big one.

Gamebase and HVSC was not made in 1 day - we just have to do it as it does itself.

rambo jones, you better try contacting some ppl out there like graham, steppe, acidchild, iopop to just name a few.
there could be no need to reinvent the wheel for the 1000th time....
maybe something positive can be achieved ;-D
@wvl: well, we all know that graham has got the biggest

Hey wait! I suggest you all get in touch with wreg. He's presently building up a database of all c64 productions. All you have to do is run Clearmamepro on your harddisk with his database file and it will eliminate all productions that he already has. You zip up the rest and send it over, easy.
He approached me recently and I was a little hesitant as I had no intention on spending hours on yet another project, but it was a quick 30 minute job.
And of course, I think he would be glad if somebody would team up with him. :-) |

Erm, I just found out wreg is not in CSDb... bugger.
He can be found among the usual suspects on #c-64 almost daily, though. |

as iopop I also wonder what the goal is, we already have www.c64.ch and csdb, is the goal to just produce a zip, with regular updates or ? |

Don't get me wrong, c64.ch and csdb are nice things, but they're growing too slowly. And there are too many entries without a download link or any other info here. And sometimes I'm asking myself: How can people add releases here, complete with screenshot and everything, but then they don't add a download link. Argh... :-/
A pure filecollections, sorted by group, would be built up 10 times quicker than the file-aspect of CSDb only. Remember, CSDb covers the whole scene.
I can also understand why the collectors out there don't publish their well sorted collections in one piece. I have now sorted 20% of my own collection and it took ages... Put it all online so that some leecher can get it in 2 minutes? No! Share what I have upon friendly request? Anytime! |
