He has a history of breaking things for no good reason – I wish I’d known this back when I started contributing – and has already broken netplay in the past. Often, I’d argue this, leading to walls of text from him claiming to be attacked for no reason. ![]() My reason for departing the project was Daniel De Matteis’ (Twinaphex’s) need to constantly make pointless edits to code he neither authored nor knew anything about, even when active contributors were already maintaining it. Through a lot of work, I did manage to get RetroArch’s netplay into pretty good shape (as well as cross-platform networking), but the already-stained image of its netplay functionality made it very hard to get new players to use it.
