TmEE

An example of Tiido's modding skills

<forumuser name="TmEE" type="game" />TmEE is a Tech Member on the Sonic Retro forum. By his own words, the complete version of his nickname is "TµEE co.", an acronym that stands for Tiido's Micro Electronical Entertainment Company; for easier usage anyway, the micro sign is usually replaced by a normal m, and there's no mention to the "Company" at all.

He comes from Estonia and his skills span across several areas, including extreme hardware modding skills and prolificient programming skills. His code is usually very well optimised, as he is an oldschool programmer that gives a lot of importance to optimisation. As an example of this, he is writing his own sound driver for the Sega Genesis, which runs on the Z80 processor and pushes it to its limiting providing sound quality and features rarely seen in other sound drivers; furthermore, he's developing a powerful tracker to compose the songs for said driver with little effort. He's also very active in the homebrew community.

He started his programming ventures in the summer of 2005 when he discovered what QBASIC.EXE in the DOS directory on the hard drive of his PC really was. He quickly learned basic things, and having a rather poor machine, he became learning code optimiztion tricks in order to enjoy his own work at maximum efficiency.
