I will no longer be able to assist with development nor debugging actual issues with the software... Quite juvenile behavior from the devs. It stemmed from this issue where the devs continuously argued in public by opening and closing an issue. Anyway, thought I would keep y'all apprised of the situation, since these are the people maintaining the software you are currently using.

Hmm, where have I seen that before? Oh yeah, on PCSX2.

Your time and talent is better spent elsewhere. Don't even think about this any longer.

You wanted to help and they acted in this way. You made yourself clear, so it’s on them to reevaluate.

Your time isn’t free, so don’t spend it on stupid people. I know you’re passionate and want to help, but sometimes it unfortunately comes down to this.

As a frequent user of pcsx2, what's the drama there?

I tried to submit a patch to disable interlacing and enable full res rendering for Gran Turismo 3.

refractionpcsx2 didn’t like it because the PAL version patch wasn’t fully finished yet. (This was because I literally restarted development in the middle of the PR I made.)

Instead of telling me to resubmit once it’s done, refractionpcsx2 tells me “we don’t want your broken patches”, accuses me of sneaking in stuff and eventually bans me because I gave up on submitting it after growing very frustrated (4 or 5 days of work on the patches).

I made a post in one of the emulation communities here on Lemmy if you want more details.
