Description orbea 2023-08-13 17:01:45 UTC
Geolith is a new highly accurate emulator for the Neo Geo AES and MVS. It was originally forked from GnGeo and then entirely rewritten where no original code remains. This is described in the upstream README:

Extra Credits
-------------
This emulator could not have been written without the amazing documentation
available at The NeoGeo Development Wiki (https://wiki.neogeodev.org) as well
as copious research and effort from the FinalBurn Neo and MAME projects.

This project began life as a fork of GnGeo 0.8.1. All original components
were removed or replaced as the project progressed, with the resulting codebase
being entirely new, with all new code written under the BSD 3-Clause license.
A special thanks goes out to Mathieu Peponas who both created the original
GnGeo emulator, and also approved the distribution of this new work as a whole
with new licensing. This resolves the "Ship of Theseus" question.

Reproducible: Always
