:I allready have too much grazy MSX assembler projects going on like :
:
:1. FDD-EMU, diskdrive emulator for MSX2 and Novaxis SCSI. Allready
:working, but it is too good, because it works under REAL DOS1, it copyes
:almoust everything including copy protections to HDD, it can emulate all
:disk accesses without matter are they called from main BIOS, HOOK, BASIC,
:BDOS or directly from DISK ROM. I have to do something so, that it can't
:be used for pirate copying. Missing / bad things are, that CD-ROM support
:is still missing, there is no disk change feature supported, multi disk
:.DSK files will mess it up, every disk takes about 20 minutes to move to
:HDD, and there is still some little bug in copy protection copy part, that
:causes games like not cracked AKIN not to work perfectly. For this copy
:protection probblem I need Help ! I can guarantee, that this proggram will
:be simply impossibble to be used for pirate copying.
I think there is no (or at least very less of people who wouldn't buy it
anyway) piracy anymore on MSX. I think copy-protections are bullshit and
give nothing but trouble. For example, Match Maniac of St. Sunrise...
Completely passed its goal because of that ***stupid*** copy-protection.
It is a perfect game to put on your harddisk to play when you have nothing
to do or don't feel like doing something useful for a while. Then you can
play it. But because of the copy-protection, you'll have to look up the
original disk and put it into diskdrive A:... Wellm I never play it because
the disk is _somewhere_ between all my disks, and I don't play it often
enough to keep the disk at my desktop.
Anyway, so if you want to use a copy-protected game you'll still have to
insert the original disk? Then what's the use of it? Oh, ofcourse, the speed
of your harddisk compared to your diskdrive is...
:2. A new MSX tR demo. That project is only started. I have just first part
:ready, but it is once again something, that gets everything out of tR !!!
Nah, don't have a turboR...
:3. FM-PAC emulator for MSX1 and Music Module. This project is just for
:fun and learning how these modules work. I can't think any use for it.
:Still missing Voice setup emulation.
How do you know the hardware voice-settings of your FM-PAC??? (or is that
exactly what your problem is?)
:4. Portuguese keyboard emulator. This project has just started...
:
:These are just most big projects right now, but there is also very
:many less important jobs going on, so maybe better idea is to finnish even
:one. ;-)
yeah, guess so...
