FAT16 final version...
Manoel "Fudeba" Pazos, I have uploaded final version of FAT16 program to my homepage, but remember that it is only for MegaSCSI. Why 'final version'? I downloaded this version but not tested yet (and what my "home-works" I'll not test in this next week). Another thing. Who is the 'english' (spanish, portuguese, freench or latin) version of FAT16.DOC?? I know how to use the program but I don't know what is this new switches "/P" (partition?) and "/B". This file may be curious informations but I can't read Kanjis... I'm fudeba not a japanese translator, Jim! :) There you will find a new version of EVA player for FAT16 that can play EVAs bigger than 32Mb. A 200Mb EVA file was tested on MO and worked right. Good! But How I can create (store, write) my very very large EVA files? I can write in partitions or the FAT16 still "read-only"? Ah! Someone answer why the FAT driver is MegaSCSI only, not? It's a PATCH and the program patches sirectly the MegaSCSI BIOS saved in SRAM. You can patch, turn off computer, restart and the MSX still reading FAT16 formated disks.

Re: The Lost Crown
Yes, and Mission-X was once released on a Clubguide Picturedisk (#6 or #9 or so). Was this legal? Or did Emiel give his personal permission? erm I believe so, we had some contacts with genic at that time, but I'm not 100% sure.. Who wrote The Lost Crown? Maybe we can find/contact him. hmms I have that MCCM, but can't reach it until next week, so maybe someone can look it up for us... we're looking for the (quite old) MCM that details the winners of the contest. The prizes were a lot of konamis, Emiel got quite a package I recall. I believe the cover has a [Dutch, but then, the magazine was in dutch] "lauwerkrans" on it with a disk in the middle.

Re: MIDI player for MoonSound
Hi, Peter: good. Well, now I have a MoonSound (8-DDD ) . Where can I download a MIDI player for this amazing soundcard? PB Sorry, but for the MoonSound exist not a good MIDI player. PB It is to difficult to developpe a MIDI-player for it. Yahmaha give us PB not the necessary informations, verry bad. I don't understand that. If has been possible to make Moonblaster ... What's the matter?We have the required information to play and create music with the OPL4. I think the source (Moonblaster, MIDI, others) should not be important. The creator of Moonblaster for Moonsound used a PC with an OPL-4 in it to get the patch information from it. It took him very much time. Unfortunatly, there seem to be some errors in the table. Without the documentation from Yamaha about the contents of the ROM it is VERY hard to find these errors. Some samples in the ROM are used for different instruments with different frequency constants. There are some drivers on a PC written by Yamaha that are using the patch table in a correct way, but it I am not capable to reverse engineer them. If someone is able to do it, please go on! By the way, I have started to make a new midi player for the moonsound that uses the midi driver I have made a long time ago for the Moonsound. (can take a long time to finish, I have other things to do) (I has the same patch table as Moonblaster uses, with the same problems, especially withdual tone patches) Greetings from Erik Maas MSX Mailinglist.

RE: FAT16 final version and new EVA player.
Great. Could you make it open-source??? Due to my lack of time I 'leave' FAT16 proyect some month ago, so Okei was who finish it. I have source code of former versions, but the latest one :( I will ask her for that code. But it is difficult to understand that code because it uses and patchs a lot of undocumented MSX DOS 2 kernel rutines. Also, do you really use MegaSCSI-specific calls or did you only test it on MegaSCSI? It only works on MegaSCSI because it uses specific calls and hardware tricks. Regards, Manuel MSX Mailinglist.

Re: your mail
Giovanni Fudeba, WISE solution is the best cost/benefit solution. Think about it. Yes, but how many WISE servers will be exist in world?

Re: web browser for msx
Hi! I have some questions for Ricardo: 1. Why not make the MSX2 browser free software? Open source would be ideal, so people could add HTZ viewing to their own productions (for example, a disk magazine, or a manual for a game). 2. Will you release the HTZ specification? It would allow other people to write a WISE server or make an HTZ viewer. I fear keeping FudeBrowser "closed" to the outside world will limit it's possiblities. Just like MIF, technically advanced but few people use it. Bye, Maarten MSX Mailinglist.

Re: New MSX...what do you think?
At 11:42 AM 6/25/99 +0200, you wrote: Yes, everybody has a PC nowadays, but I see movements in the business. I think the time is here to introduce other systems (hard- and software)..Linux is more popular then ever, BEOS version 4 is released.These are all examples of the fact that more and more people don't like PC/Microsoft anymore. First, you must separate PC from Microsoft. BeOS runs on x86 and Power PC. Linux runs on many systems, but most people use x86. Intel even actively supports Linux development. So, it's not right to assume all PCs run Windows. The other way around, Windows CE is in a lot of new equipment (like the Dreamcast), so Microsoft is not limited to PCs anymore. Second, I fail to see why MSX would be a good base for a new computer system. Other than games, I don't think I know any program that MSX offers and is better than what Linux offers. Besides, even if a company wanted MSX compatibility, they could better do it in software than in hardware. Some may argue that the current MSX emulators are not perfect yet. But remember that the typical MSX emulator is written by a single person in his spare time. A team of full-time programmers could make a near-perfect MSX emulator in a matter of months. I think MSX only has a chance in a field where its limitations may be benefits: low-cost, low-power, small. A portable game computer, like the GameBoy. You could download games (DSK or ROM format) from the net, into a flash ROM. There are plently of games available right now, ASCII only has to buy the rights. Remember, the only reason (from a commercial standpoint) for making a device MSX compatible is to run existing software. Writing new software is easier on a 32-bit RISC processor. And those do fit into VLSI nowadays... And as I already said, existing software means games. Ofcourse, once the device is made, it can run other software too (email client, organiser). But those are not a reasons to choose MSX in the first place. Bye, Maarten MSX Mailinglist.

Re: web browser for msx
Ricardo Bittencourt wrote: With FudeBrowser, the idea remains the same. You would still connect to a web server in a pc, only this time the web server is a dedicated one. If someone really wants to browse using just an MSX, they could make a WISE server for MSX, right? And since the TCP/IP that is under development allows multitasking, the MSX WISE and FudeBrowser could run on the same machine. "But, what if my local ISP does not agree to run wise?" Don't worry. If WISE is running in just one server on the world, it would be enough. You would connect to your isp, yout isp would connect to the wise server and you would download the .htz stream without even know from where it's coming. So the WISE server acts as a kind of proxy server? Anyway, to make it practical, you'd need something like a WISE server per country, or at least continent. I think a WISE server can most easily be implemented in Java: - portable - sending streams over TCP/IP is easy - GIF and JPEG decoding are already present in most Java environments Bye, Maarten MSX Mailinglist.

Question about Konami games
Hi, Richard: RG In some of the 16k konami games I have (.bin format) the graphics on RG the = top of the screen are corrupted. There is a green-yellow striped RG block. = When I reset my MSX2 the game restarts and then the graphics RG are normal. RG RG Does anyone know what causes this corruption and what I can do about RG it, = besides resetting the MSX? Perhaps you own bad cracks of these games. RG Also I find it rather anoying that some of the games restart after = RG resetting. I solved this by changing "AB" at the beginning of the game RG = into "AA" with diskedit. It works, but it takes a lot of time to do RG it = with all the games. RG RG Is there a more simple solution? Yes, there is. I suggest you to use LOADROM.COM with the original .ROM files of the games. You can download .ROM files from Funet, Komkon, etc. LOADROM overwrites the 'AB' strings before running the game in order to avoid auto-reload and hanging some computers up.

New MSX...what do you think?
Hi I was wondering how all of you think about this new MSX story. I read mixed responses to the news. I would like to know what market they would aim at IF a new MSX will come. What kind of market is left in this world where almost everybody has a PC that has al lot of software available...because that's where it comes to in terms of success, software must be available.

Hmmm, If ASCII would make a new MSX-computer, it would have to fit the demands of the customer of today, which is: - 3D video - 3D audio - xxx megs of memmory - xxx gigs of harddisk (if we suppose that the new MSX would not be a gameconsole) - CD-Rom/DVD-support I dont't think that all what you say is true. There is a lot of people that is still playing with his MSX, C64 or Amiga. If you want 3D or gigs of memory support PC is still the best choice (also because there are emulators for about any kind of platforms). A new MSX will be something as the VW beetle or the Piaggio's Vespa old loved thing with something new ... a lot of people, I think, is not interested in a new playstation, but in a new HomeComputer, simple to use, low cost and with a lot of nice software.

Re: New MSX...what do you think?
I think the problems is that the original msx hardware structure is outdated for playing playstation kind of games (3d and fast).

Yes, everybody has a PC nowadays, but I see movements in the business. I think the time is here to introduce other systems (hard- and software)..Linux is more popular then ever, BEOS version 4 is released.These are all examples of the fact that more and more people don't like PC/Microsoft anymore.Maybe ASCII feels the same and wants to build a new system which is more easy to understand and to use. A machine on which you can simply play a game, do some browsing and e-mailing and typing a letter..The PC is very hard to keep up with, every week a new driver for that and that card is being released, it's too difficult for the public to keep their computer modern On the other hand, there's also a market for simple home applications, to be used by people who just want to play games, browse some web or type a letter or two.

Most people seems to miss that FudeBrowser does not require a PC. Suppose you have an msx-browser that reads directly from the .html files. You would still have to connect in a web server. Most likely this web server would be a PC. With FudeBrowser, the idea remains the same. You would still connect to a web server in a pc, only this time the web server is a dedicated one. "But, what if my local ISP does not agree to run wise?" Don't worry. If WISE is running in just one server on the world, it would be enough. You would connect to your isp, yout isp would connect to the wise server and you would download the .htz stream without even know from where it's coming.

RS232
Hi, folks. Here is a stupid question about RS232... I connected my TR to my PC using RS232. I made a program in PC to read any byte from RS232 port. It works with another PC sending data via RS232. I also made a program in MSX for sending data through RS232. I first call RS232 ROM INIT routine. After, I simply call RS232 ROM SENDBYTE routine. INIT returns ok. But SENDBYTE hangs MSX. I think I'm doing everything right. Maybe I need to open a channel in RS232 for sending bytes? But SENDBYTE routine doesn't asks for channel ID [maybe because my RS232 is NOT multichannel?]... Ah, and GETBYTE also hangs MSX... :/ Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?

One thing that struck me about the program is that you only set the palette index once. I'm not sure it wraps around at 16. If it doesn't, it would cause your program to fail. It wraps around.

Hi all, If I want to obtain the list of the "MSX" cd by Hnostar is necessary do the RESET of the computer. RESET computer - DIR and list is correct: DEMOS GAMES GFX900 GRAPHICS HNOSTAR etc... Why this? Is an error in the IDECDEX? it seems that your CDROM does not report to IDECDEX driver that the medium was replaced. Perhaps something goes wrong with communication between msx and cdrom (atapi protocol). Do you experience other problems with your CDROM? (readerrors, etc...) is it an old cdrom? (=slow) Greetz, jon btw in stead of resetting, try to open your CDROM and close it again; this should generate a 'medium changed' condition if your cdrom is ok.

All samples in the ROM are all 12 BIT... That's not the problem. What yamaha didn't provide is the patch tables...

For MSX2, SCR7 with 424 colors. Get FudeBrowser, read the README.TXT. It's all explained there. (I believe it only supports PCX images For now. so the decoding won't take that long...

Www! This is really BIG news! My proposal is to show (mainly Dutch stuff): why mainly dutch? lots of great stuff is comming from spain! - all available GFX9000 software, including those nice demo-like thingies by Mark Zellenrath (former Fony and Mayhem) - Nice Turbo R software, like Zone Terra - St. Sunrise software (The Lost World, Pumpkin Adventure 3, and maybe more) - St. Sunrise hardware! (ofcourse GFX9000, Moonsound, Sunrise IDE, Sunrise RS232) - Impressive MSX2-demo's like NOP's Unknown Reality (256kB/MSX Audio), Almost Real (disk A...), Calculus and others (Techno Crew/TeddyWarez/...???) - Also some nice demo's from Switzerland! Like that Raytracing demo. - Hardware like JoyNet! I hope there will be some software for it soon! This would really impress Nishi! Other proposals welcome ofcourse! why don't show stuff from beginners so they can see that there are still new poeple on the msx scene Kuniji, don't forget to send us mail about these kind of things! :-) but as much as i would like it that there will be a new MSX i kind of doubt it just like all the other project's. sorry but thats how i see it. i have to see it first before i believe it.

Perhaps something goes wrong with communication between msx and cdrom (atapi protocol). Yes, perhaps... I write DIR and the cd-rom reads (the motor is ON and also the led of cd-rom to light up). Appears the list of the files. I replace the cd, I write DIR still, and this time the cdrom doesn't read!! (the motor is OFF and also the led of cd-rom is out). THIS ISN'T GOOD!! Do you experience other problems with your CDROM? (readerrors, etc...) No! No problem, function well! The COPY command only doesn't function, (but we have spoken still of this). is it an old cdrom? (=slow) No. The cd-rom is recent he is a 40x speed. btw in stead of resetting, try to open your CDROM and close it again; this should generate a 'medium changed' condition if your cdrom is ok. IDECDEX will notice this and will refresh the cached directorystructure. No, don't function, like told already, this is not as. ps: bios 1.94 is on its way (enhanced ATAPI driver), perhaps this will also fix your cd communication problem Ok, many thanks to you.

Re: Hi and infoquery
Hi, Alone, that's more so, with two it's a lot easier to reacquire weapons. But (well I haven't played much alone so you know better) even alone it shouldn't be that hard. After all, when you have say 2 speeds + a laser and/or one option, you can already survive with reasonable chances. At least if your starting from a level's beginning. The end halves will be more difficult to get started from... Yes, and those were also the points that I had in mind... Was the part before the Dark Zone so bad? The Dark Zone itself may be especially if you've too many speeds (that's where I died when playing alone). If you die and you start over right before the Dark Zone, it's bad. There aren't many energy capsules to be gained, so there is little chance that you can regain enough weapons to play on to the end of the level. And if you reach that point, it remains to be very difficult without any weapons (nearly impossible). Well not any emulator. FMSX doesn't have save, neither any other I've seen (one had it "under construction"...). Gotta keep looking. I think the emulator of MCCM featured something like this (MSX4PC)...

Re: Princess Maker
Hi, Is Princess Maker a good game? Is an RPG? Princess Maker is not really an RPG, although it contains some RPG elements and a part of it exists of an RPG. It can be called a childcare simulation game. You have to raise the daughter of the king while he's solving some war problems. It was very popular in Japan. I never played it, but I think I will some time. Bye Rieks __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com MSX Mailinglist.

Re: RAM disk vs floppy (was: Re[2]: IDE, CD-ROM and IDECDEX)
{Troubles with floppy as H:]
Maybe the RAMdisk and floppy 'collide'?
Well that's my guess too.
But why oh why does it auto-install the RAMDISK
Good question ;-)
Ehm, the msxdos I use does not "automagically" create a ramdisk (at least
I
think it doesn't). I always have to put RAMDISK= in my autoexec.bat
(or
type it at command-prompt).
No, I haven't put something like that in the AUTOEXEC.BAT
But I meant I think Dos2 already installed some driver or so which keeps the
H: drive RESERVED for the Ramdisk, causing problems when used with a real
drive.

Re: Diskdrive of 8245 broken... HELP!
Well, it could be that the heads are not pressed tight enough onto the disk, thereby not transferring the magnetic info correctly. (Try pressing play just a little bit on your walkman and you'll hear the effect: high frequencies get lost). No, pushing the head downwards does not help. I mean pressing the head in the direction of the bootsector. This is hard to measure, but maybe if you have access to another (broken) drive you can compare it. Another thing is there may be 'speling' (what is the English word...play?) in the horizontal movement of the heads, thereby not aligning the tracks right every time (but maybe sometimes). What can I do about it? The head is indeed a bit 'loose'.. More possibilities: excentric movement of the disk (check the rim while it's spinning). Maybe the sector 0 detector is not always working. I rim? It seems to be ok. don't know how this works in this drive, but in mine it's a magnet on the spindle motor passing a hall switch. If it's optical in the 8245, maybe it's dirty. It doesn't look optical, i.e. I see no little light. It looks ok though. So far my ideas...good luck and let me know if you find out more. Ok, anyone else that might be able to help me? I feel it must be possible to get this drive working again! (It almost works!) Grtjs, Manuel PS: MSX 4 EVER! (Questions?
