Rabin's Emails

Since I held on to some of my old email files, I trawled through them looking for some from Rabin, and selected 3...

Rabin being conscise:


Not a bug.

Rabin not happy :


Someone who doesn't understand the implications of their actions added RenderWare Debugging macros to sweDmaSend. They have been removed.
It would be very useful if people who don't know what they are doing left device code alone. It would be anoying to have to perminantly lock files...

Rabin's unique blend of consciseness and wit:


Its what PS2's do. We call the Sony libs to do mode setup so have no control
over this; have you found a non-RW game that does 60Hz MPAL?
