Re: Tilburg and Xak2
Hello everyone!Did you have a good time at Tilburg? I did, I bought a game called Fighter's Ragnarok. Very nice. I've got a question for you guys, maybe it's an old question, 'cause I'm new here, but here it goes: I'm playing Xak2 at the moment and I can't get in the church. This is necessary to restore your karma so that your exp. level will gain. What am I doing wrong??? Can anybody help me out??? Thanx very much! Mark. If you're able or not to enter the church depends on two things. If you carry a certain item (I believe it was the book with the demons' prophecy, if not, another devilish item you can easily get rid of by selling or giving it to somebody else living in Banuwa village) you can't enter the church. If this is not the case, and you're for example just in the beginning of the game, you won't be playing the original Xak 2 (which wouldn't be a shame anymore or anything) and you got a bad copy...

Re: PC Active
In the PC Active of May'99 (Dutch magazine from the makers of MSX Computer Magazine) there's a 2 page article about MSX computers and history. The header of this article is: MSX, good but forgotten. It's a fairly good article about the system. Cool! I'll check it out... Who wrote it? Wammes or Frank??? I guess Frank. Neither of them, the article was written by David Boelee (former MSX Computer Magazine-writer). See Loy. MSX Mailinglist.

Re: JOYNET information and MISC
information and MISC Hello everyone, Just have two questions: 1/ where to get the JOYNET BIOS and latest specifications for the cable? The latest specs for the cable are on my official JoyNet homepage at http://datax.cjb.net/ Protocols are still in development, however I will try to finish one; but in a few days (before saturday) I will add a section to the page with proposings for a 2-computer and a network-protocol. Which you still have to program, ofcourse. Also, solutions for the "interrupt-problem" will be given (the standard MSX interrupt resets the JoyNet pins). ~Grauw MSX Mailinglist.

RE: FAT16 for Megascsi
Hi, Somebody in Japan is working on a FAT16 driver for Megascsi. You can download it from the following URL: http:/www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~okei Though, you should be aware of the fact that the driver is still in a beta phase and might contain bugs which can lead to dataloss. You are right. As I said some months ago, Okei and me were working on a patch for MSX-DOS2 for working with FAT16 in MegaSCSI. The latest version of FAT16 was made only by Okei, due to my lack of time. But, as usual, SHE made a great work (she is one os the best coders that I know). FAT16 supports HDD, ZIP and MO as far as now. She made a patch for EVA player which can play EVA files bigger that 32Mb. You can download both utils from my homepage too. (I must upload it, because it is only updated in my HDD, sorry) Best regards, Manuel --- Manuel Pazos Member of boh.ken http://personales.mundivia.es/mpazos --- MSX Mailinglist.

A stupid point: why Okei or Manuel Pazos don't tell Nestor some tips and infos for him to help his FAT16 project? And more, this tips don't allow making some kind of MSXCDEX for Sunrise IDE? I think hiding MSX tech info it stupid. It difficults new interesting programs be made easily. If ESE released international info about MegaSCSI, its programming and DOS2 patching, many new utils could be made. And maybe we had FAT32 now. :) And again, Manuel Pazos is fudeba. :) Adriano Camargo Rodrigues da Cunha ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Engenharia de Computacao - UNICAMP http://www.adrpage.cjb.net MSX-TR:I have one.And you? *** NEW URL!

Re: JOYNET information and MISC
At 04:33 PM 4/27/99 +0200, you wrote: 1/ where to get the JOYNET BIOS and latest specifications for the cable? There is no such thing as a JoyNet BIOS (not yet, anyway). If you want, I can mail you my source for a communication protocol. It has one major problem though: it cannot recover from errors. Errors are rare, so for testing the protocol is OK, but there errors are just a bit too frequent (once in 80 megs if my memory is correct) to call this protocol reliable. Laurens also made a protocol, I don't know if his sources are avialable (either through WWW or my request). And there is the JoyDsk ROM, a diskROM-like program that enables you to use a PC like a disk drive through the JoyNet cable (DOS1 only at the moment). Bye, Maarten MSX Mailinglist.
