Re: [MSX] Fifa World Cup 2014 and MSX
SLotman, It's very difficult to have any MSX meetings near Maracanã Stadium. Talk is cheap, show us the place... We have UERJ (university), which isn't exactly cheap to rent a room or two, to a MSX meeting. We used a room in the Physics' Institute in 1998, and it wasn't exactly pleasant to us... And the rules to hire any government's space (UERJ belongs to the Rio de Janeiro's state) to a particular event changed. I tried the school where my wife works, it's in Vila Isabel, close to Maracanã Stadium (and a hospital too), but her boss told her that today is nearly impossible. In the beginning of 2013, people from SESC Engenho de Dentro (which rents a room for us with a reasonable price) told me that they won't rent that room anymore, due to changes in the room's shape. So, we started again to find another place to have our MSX meetings, the MSXRio. I found a very nice school, near Maracanã. It's a secondary school (Colégio Graham Bell), a bit more expensive than SESC Engenho de Dentro, but it's near metro and train stations, and close to Maracanã Stadium. We had 2 meetings there, in 2013. But the teachers' co-op which manages the school are in a quarrel with the union who owns the school. As the director said to me, maybe by the end of 2014 we can have the MSX meeting again in Graham Bell, but it's too difficult to talk about dates. Finally, we got a big room in SESC Madureira, which is far from the centre (even more far than Engenho de Dentro), but maybe it's the best place that we'll have since 1997. And it's close to most of the MSX-freaks' homes. So, if anybody wants to hire a MSX meeting during the World Cup in Rio, please tell me, I think I can handle a fifth meeting in SESC Madureira. Our dates are: 15th February (Saturday) 2nd and 3rd May (Friday and Saturday, after Labor Day - holiday). 18th October (Saturday) RetroRio (which is like MSXRio but it's not MSX restricted) will be held in the same place by 16th August. Hope everybody can come to one of our meetings, even Slotman, who are always too busy to attend any MSX meetings. =) We won't have any meetings during the World Cup. Maybe I'll be in Europe during this period. (And I'm going to Netherlands too! =D) If anyone wants to manage this meeting, be my guest, amaze me. ;-) Hmm... That's all. Best regards, Ricardo.

The idea I proposed was to take the small break in the World Cup after the 'groups stage' is over (usually a week, so tourists can see the country) and do the event somewhere near Maracanã Stadium, so it would be somewhere easy to be found by tourists... ...the idea was not very well received, and some points raised were actually very good: mainly prices in general (usually during world cup prices are much higher than normal for flights, hotels, etc) - and the huge ammount of people attending to the world cup, making it difficult to get anywhere. I then gave up on the idea. If someone wants to do it, then by all means, do it - the way my year started, I'll probably be too busy - maybe even to attend to an MSX meeting :( At 10:13 PM 05/01/14, you wrote: Hi everyone, Who among you will come to Brazil for the FIFA World cup 2014 ?

So, as a TP programmer (sorry C-friends), it would be better to write the code using joe, nano, pico, vi, emacs, ed or another Linux text editor, copy it to a diskimage and into fMSX, compile and execute. No problems until this step. But TP 3.0 is not a command-line compiler, which makes me lose time, loading-TP-interface, opening-the-program-into-TP, compiling-it, etc. Finally, I've tried TP 3.3, which is command-line driven.

MSX Mailinglist in het Nederlands - yet
Here in Brazil I noticed some time ago (in 1995) that a Brazilian MSX mailing list would be a nice way to talk in our mother tongue about MSX without disturbing the international mailing list. Maybe our list was the first non-English MSX mailing list. I founded MSXBR-L in 1995, and after 6 years (and a lot of problems with mail servers =)), we've got 160 users, and it had been wonderful. I can say that the MSXBR-L had done much more for the Brazilian MSX community than I have ever imagined. But less than 20% of the MSXBR-L subscribers also reads the international MSX mailing list. Although the MSXBR-L is the oldest and the major Brazilian mailing list, we've more Brazilian MSX mailing lists, like MSX-All, MSXSite, MSX-RJ, etc. Many countries (Spain and Japan) have their own MSX mailing list. Yep, it's so easy nowadays, with Yahoo!Groups... I think a Dutch MSX mailing list would be very good for the Dutch MSX community, like the Brazilian and Spanish ones. The international MSX mailing list (the eldest, founded by Wiebe Weikamp, Roderik Muit, Stefan Boer and myself in 1994) can be a great way of talking about MSX overseas, but there are questions that would be answered better by people from our own country. The thought of only one mailing list is a very selfish one. Not everybody speaks English. BTW, very few can speak and write English correctly. Does anyone have asked why only Kuniji Ikeda, from Japan, is the lonely guy from the Land Of The Rising Sun who writes English mails? Why not more Japanese MSX-freaks talk in English here, about MSX? As I've said above, maybe we have 20 or 30 Brazilian members in the international MSX mailing list. And it isn't fair to place 130 users outside the MSX world, only 'cause they can't write and/or read in English. We lives in the same planet, but we still have our own countries, speak different languages, and prefer different football national teams. =) So, think with care about a Dutch mailing list.

Lemmings 4 MSX?
Sorry pals, but I've been "out" of the Net for almost a month, so I know it's a late question, but... I saw a mail regarding to a Lemmings-clone 4 MSX. Can somebody explain to me? Private would be better. Thankx! ------ Ricardo Jurczyk Pinheiro - M. Sc. Numerical Modelling - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 3635907 [EMAIL PROTECTED] - ABUB, MSX, Linux, Gospel... More? Ask me!

Re: Brazilian MSX Maling list (In Portuguese)
It all comes down to "standards". English, like it or not, is a standard. Many people know it and everybody should know it aswell. It doesn't seem very smart to keep yourself away from developments and discussions taken in your very own country. However, you can be smart and do stupid things, and vice versa. `:))) MSXBR-L is the best way to know what people are doing in Brazil, and if you have some questions related to Brazilian MSX software or hardware it's also the quickest way to get answers. Doesn't seem very smart for whose opinion? Is that a standard? I try to keep up-to-date with anything I consider interesting, that's not a geographical issue here. Maybe. The problem about brazilian MSX computers and their developers is that they tried to get away from the MSX standards. The Expert has it's character table altered, while the HotBit has serious hardware problems. "Sorry, you won't be able to run this software on your HotBit / Expert". Everybody knows how standards are important. Fortunatelly with emulators, you can run a virtual MSX with the original Microsoft MSX ROM. Why not you try to talk this into the MSXBR-L, in plain Portuguese (mainly ´cause our English isn´t that nice, mainly compared with our mother tongue)... Better, why not in Jau´s meeting, of MSXRio´2001? =) ____________ Ricardo Jurczyk Pinheiro - ICQ UIN:3635907 - [EMAIL PROTECTED]|_Sola Scriptura | http://i.am/rjp -M.Sc.

Re: Brazilian MSX Maling list (In Portuguese)
Ok, but I can tell you I was damn disappointed when I've tried to run Parodius and it was hacked to fit the Expert's character table and not the Hotbit. Surely it was a problem with the not well written MegaRAM loader program, but if there was no such difference, there would be no problem also. :) Never mind, that Parodius had a bug in the last stage... =) Ricardo Jurczyk Pinheiro - ICQ UIN:3635907 - [EMAIL PROTECTED]|_Sola Scriptura | http://i.am/rjp -M.Sc.

Or the rejection to it out of europe will be a little bigger than the expected. I do not want to buy a new board where I need to change so it can work. I thought on buying it, after I bought a MoonSound and it works great. But after I tried to use GFX9K without sucess, I just forgot about it. Well, a friend of mine had bought a GFX9K too, and I got it to develop some tests... But what was my surprise when I could not put it working with my Philips RGB monitor. I´ve got the same problem as Daniel: an out-of-sync image. And I was wondering about buying one 4 me, but I wasn´t satisfied with the results, and forgot it. Thankx...
