So far, it looks like IP selector won't be merged due to absolutely unnecessary drama over me not saying "thank you" even though I was 100% grateful for it. (I just got a bit mad over the no-credits part; like I said, I feel that those people should deserve more attention than myself). I'll keep everyone updated on the situation. Hopefully we can get this merged into master instead of just having a separate fork for it. Fingers crossed!

It has nothing to do with you not saying thank you, it's not being merged for the ridiculous requests when I created a pull request, but you're free to do a pull request from my repo to your own on your own, or implement the changes on your own. I never created any drama, I didn't say that you weren't credited, when you actually were, or other such things. But since I spent hours upon hours with the changes in my fork, and it was GPL, I just changed it to a release of my own following the GPL, a link to your source is there. Not saying thanks, which you still haven't, but that along with the requests on the merge, made me realize not to touch anything you work on again, or spend my time working hard on adding more functionality to your stuff.

But honestly, the icing on the cake was in the pull request, you asked me to remove that it was made by you, but the first response you had in this thread, was accusing me of not crediting you. So what are you really mad about? It's ok, I already know.

First off, because you pointed out that I haven't thanked you yet: I very sincerely thank you for the hours of work that you put into the IP selector when I did the same and couldn't get it working. Absolutely no sarcasm here.

About the ridiculous requests: All I asked you to do were some minor changes to the UI. All you had to do was delete a few lines and squash (rebase) with git. (For reference, here's the web page as of 10:30PM ET on July 8th.) I thought this was common for open source projects? I pay attention to Dolphin and Citra development and this happens a lot. Also, I was not accusing you of not crediting me, I was accusing you of not crediting everyone else who provided resources, which I later apologized for. I pretty much don't care if my name is there or not, I really just care if those other contributors names are there.

Maybe I won't release source anymore for other projects I do if this keeps happening.

(I apologize for the drama, everyone. If this needs to be dropped it will be)

I had spent enough time on it, and am busy working on some important projects, all you had to do was make the changes yourself, or if you didn't want to commit my changes before you changed the other things, then just take from my source code what you needed and updated yourself with that. I'm not mad at anyone, and at this point, I don't even care for any thanks. In the future, if people ask for things added to some app (I know you didn't, but others did), I will be sure to completely and thoroughly ask the person who made the app, if they want any help with it, because if they want my stuff, they take it like it is, and they can change what they want from what I do. I did the same helping vgmoose, there was some things he wanted changed from the changes I did, but he changed them on his own. I'll help, but I am doing it with my free time, I do it how it is quickest and easiest for me to do, if there is any needed changes on top of that, that's not my responsibility. If I knew I had to do the changes like a job, I would have just did the changes on my own and never involved you, and gave a link to your original source code, but actually, probably just wouldn't have done them in the first place and kept working on my other stuff. I do homebrew programming for a challenge to create something in my own vision, not as a job.

You could've just suggested that I made the changes instead of going off, closing the PR without a word, and complaining about it elsewhere. tbh, I thought you messed the rebase up and waited for a new PR to be opened, leaving me confused as to why that never happened. In other open source projects, you are the person who is expected to make changes suggested during code review, and I follow the same philosophy.

Anyway, If you reopen the PR, I'll merge and do it myself. I'm tired and I just want this to be done with.

Where can I get geckiinecreator.exe or a cafiine server? I can't find working downloads anywhere. Also is there some collective database of Wii U codes like geckocodes somewhere?

Question, do you have to go to the homebrew launcher every time you do this when you shut down the console? Or you don't have to?

You telling me it works doesn't help the situation
