 Hi...
 
 Hi
 
 Some people suggested me to use Netmechanic to check all links (of
 The
 Ultimate MSX FAQ, and especially The MSX Hardwarelist), but
 unfortunately Netmechanic cannot check links on FTP sites... Does
 anyone
 know a service or another way to check those links?

   If the only suposition of IC is that the RAM is in slot 3.0, my computer is

No. I read the datastream into a 32kB buffer and report how many bytes I 
actually received. This will be 32kB for all but the last read statement.

I show this so that you can see that something is still going on. Otherwise 
you might think that the computer is hanging because of the time it requires 
to decompress entire disk(image)s on MSX.

I have never taken the effort to make the output very fancy and nice. I could 
have done stuff with progression bars and the like but I did not want to put 
too much effort in these kind of cosmetics.

 I wonder: would it possible to make a GameBoy emulator for MSX? I know
 it also has a Z80... Maybe it will only work on 7MHz or Turbo R, but
 would it be possible?
 
 Maybe Marcel de Kogel, who wrote Mission, can shed a light on this? Or
 Marat Fayzullin maybe?

According to Collin van Ginkel (now developing on GameBoy) it should be

Ah I see. Good policy for this kind of apps. (Better to have a good app with 
an ugly layout than vice versa!)

Re: MSX Web Ring - kinda gone?

1999-08-02 Thread dirk . pawlowski

 Hi
 
 Did you notice that the picture of the MSX web ring is gone? 
 
 What can we do about it?
That's not the only problem with the web ring: a few days ago I'd 
like to become a member of this web ring, but the server (I think it's 
webring.org) didn't find the linked site for registration. And 
searching for the web ring was also unsuccesful. 

I have no idea how I can become a member. Does the ring exist 
anymore or is it dead?

Many Questions but no answers...

Greetings

Dirk

possible with a GFX9000. If anyone would like to try and write such an

Graphics wise the GFX900 could use the dual-plane mode for the regular
monochrome Gameboy emulation, that should be rather easy. Same concept,
patterbased, hardwarescroll etc etc.

Gameboy Color emulation is a little bit tougher, the GFX9000 could use a
screen12 like mode but with 32768 colors. But the GBColor also has a dual
speed mode and DMA type things. So it would be very hard to get it going at
normal speed, even on the best pumped up Turbo-R Gti.

I think the source-code for Virtual Gameboy shouldn't be to hard get, so I'd
say, give monochrome GB emulation at least a go. Should be interesting to
see how far you can come!

Greetz,

Collin
