Hall of Shame
Deflemask
Deflemask is a Tracker to create chip music for various Systems, including the SID.
- It uses reSID from VICE for its SID emulation.
- reSID is linked into the program statically
- Nowhere in the program or the documentation does it mention that reSID is being used, and where to get the related sourcecode
when a member of the team asked for the sourcecode, we got this nice reply:
