Hey guys! If Nishi comes to Tilburg, I guess he wants to see some spectacular Dutch MSX stuff! So, we should arrange a demonstration of the most impressive MSX soft made in the NL. I'm sure you'll be able to come up with some titles! Here are some, to start with (in random order): promo of Core Dump, Unknown Reality, Almost Real, TED, MemMan (with e.g. Tracer!), DiskView 2, Realms of Adventure (and/or Pumpkin Adventure 3), Sunrise Magazine (17 or so), FutureDisk, some GFX9000 stuff of course, Moonsound (including editors and stuff that uses it), some impressive musicdisks, etc. etc. SOmeone should organize this! I think it's very important for him to get a good picture of the Dutch (ex-) MSX scene. What do you think? Grtjs, Manuel PS: MSX 4 EVER! (Questions?

RE: DOTA
Laurens, Do you want to scan the front of the box "dota" for me. I'm very curious!!

Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
What about Thunderbirds Are Go and findit, I'll bet you they don't have those games in Japan. True, but they are (sorry, I'm being honest!) not the state of the art MSX software in my honest opion. And besides, they can already be seen at your booth. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: ] What do you think? Good idea. And lets add some MSX turbo R softs to the list as well (modplay, modedit, zoneterra) and such a cool music program like SME 3.0 too ;-) Hah! I forgot Turbo R soft. Indeed, Zone Terra is a very good example. The rest too of course. And lets not forget the very famous fastcopy program :-) Nah! Let's skip that one. It's nice, but not cool to show. Is there a turbo R on the fair? Or should I bring my own with me? This depends on how it will be organised... Another thing I forgot: MB Muzax 3! Should be there too, of course, to represent Music Disks. (If we should take ONE, we should take this one, IMO.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Or the stunning new game on CD to be released in Tilburg? This is already shown in Tilburg at the Delta Soft booth, no need for a special presentation. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Nishi's gonna get a very busy day in Tilburg ;) That's why we need to select very carefully. He's not coming to Tilburg to eat out of his nose! Anne de Raad said: I think Nishi is more interested in hardware then in software, actually. Showing GFX9000/Moonsound/IDE interfaces/Slotexpanders etc. etc. is more interesting then showing Unknown Reality... Right. Then those should definately be shown. But to show the hardware, also software is needed. Any ideas for GFX9000? Maybe the best thing is to show Video9000 working with it, in combination with a camera... Moonsound: some cool demo/musicdisk? Suggestions? IDE: suggestions? Just run games from it? Slotexpanders: We could use one to connect all hardware mentioned above, including FM PAC, Music MOdule, etc. Eric Boon said: Dunno. Will depend largely on the target market Nishi has in mind for the MSneXt (-- look! a name proposal ;-P) If it should be come PDA-like thingie, I don't think a 8-slot slot expander or IDE interface is really interesting. (A firewire or USB i/f could be, though :-)) You have a point there. This triggered me to show the soft at first. But shwoing the developed hardware can give an impression of the Dutch MSX activities though. And I don't think that showing anyone software from a long past(5 years == eternity in the IT business) will impress anyone. OTOH, if someone *really* wants to Depends if the soft is impressive: it WILL run on a 15 year old MSX2, most of it! show Nishi 'RubyJade' or 'EXOR', I'm of course the last to complain :-P Har har! :-) It's nice soft, but I would vote to show those, since it's not state of the art, but relatively simple games. But maybe those are interessting to show too, they at least take a short time to show. :-) Ruud v/d Moosdijk said: From what I understood they want our ideas, not our soft/hardware. You can't hire a booth to show our ideas...no booth would be big enough. :) That's the idea for Sunday. But not for Saturday, as far as I know. Hmmm, still no reactions from the people accompanying Nishi or the organizers of Tilburg. IF something is to be organized, it shouldn't take too long to start, otherwise it's too late. Tilburg is in 2 1/2 weeks! Another thing: what can we do to attract more visitors to Tilburg? I guess Nishi can be used as a way to do this. We would need some attention from (local) newspapers, computer magazines, web news services or other media. Did someone think about this? Grtjs, Manuel PS: MSX 4 EVER! (Questions?

Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
And what about "Sonyc"? IMHO, one of the few games which takes full advantage of MSX2+ and TR possibilities. Indeed, Nishi will be quite busy in Tilburg :) Grtx, Cleme -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
Ys 1 won't save?

Don't use your SD Snatcher save disk for anything else, or anything else for an SD Snatcher save disk! SD Snatcher saves to sectors and will overwrite any file that happens to be in those sectors. I think a formatted floppy should work for Ys 1. Maybe you have to initialise it from within the game? It's a long time ago I played the game, so I don't remember exactly how it worked.

Re: Ys 1 won't save?
If you watch the entire introdemo, YS1 will automatically create an userdisk, if I'm correct.

If you watch the entire introdemo, YS1 will automatically create an userdisk, if I'm correct. I think it also mattered which firebutton you used to start the game... button 1 was continue, button 2 was new game. But I'm not entirely sure if that was the case in Ys I. ~Grauw -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
