Was astonished to receive an e-mail telling that aamsx.org is 
becoming aamsx.com - I knew of the two sites but thought they were 
handled separately - any confirmation of this as both sites seem to 
still run?

MSX Hotline Server goes live!

2001-02-08 Thread Philip Pera

The MSX Games Box goes Hotline! I've setup a small server where every 
MSX fan can download, upload, share thoughts, chat ... online.

At the moment the server will not run 24hrs/day - and I have to do 
with rotating IP addresses for each internet session I start, which 
is a bit problematic.

To this extent you just have to log on www.msxgamesbox.com and see if 
the server is online and at what IP address.

If you don't know Hotline, download the client (Mac/Windoze) at www.bigredh.com
To get full download permission, use simply 'msxgames' for both logon 
and password.

Tonight the server is running on 217.136.4.127

See you maybe there!

Re: Network

1999-02-10 Thread Philip

This sounds promising!
with the right software it should be possible to make a drive mapping to
the pc.
The software should probably be written like a disk rom. This is the same
as a ramdisk for
dos1 does.

One more comment though,
why not make the single port version first?
I don't think there are many people (except mr. Witkop) who have more than
two msx computers.


I have a sony rs232 which contains the bios, so perhaps this is usable.
The problem is again the software, I need some kind of sever program for
the pc,
and a client program for the msx.

I do know some assembly for the msx, and I know how the diskrom principle
works,
but I don't get a clue how to program the rs232. Perhaps Erik de Boer knows
this.

Philip


At 19:38 13-11-98 +0100, you wrote:
Yes, I'm currently working on something like this.
I came up with the idea of making a bi-directional interface for
the MSX. It had to be 8-bits. And since the parallel port of
the pc is also bi-directional and 8-bits we planned to develop
a bi-directional printerport for the msx. 
Erik the Boer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) made a layout of a printed circuit 
board for me but all is stil in it's early development stages. 
The board has to modes. One of them generates an interrupt on #38
whenever a byte is sent. The other one is withoput the interrupt.
Both modes are latched so you don't have to poll anything which saves
cpu-time. 

Now the plans have changed somewhat. Because I thought it would also be
fun if you could also link all your msx-es together. But that would mean
that one MSX had tot have two printerport cartridges. And since most
MSX-es only have two external cartridge slots this doesn't leave any
room for extra harware like an scc cartridge or slotexpander.
Another problem was that both cartridges couldn't use the same I/O
adresses. They had to have a dipswitch in order to select another range
of I/O adresses for one of them.

So i'm redesigning the stuff. 
The new plan is to create one cartridge with two parrallel printerlike
ports on it. This saves one slot but the cartridge does become bigger.
You can use it to either link your MSX to the parrallel port
of your PC, or link your MSX to another MSX, or both;)

I was writing a driver for the PC which makes the PC the slave
so you could access the harrdisk directly with some kind of
file transfer protocol. I don'y know how to make the MSX see your PC as
another drive though.

But I'm still some months away of finishing this project because
I also have a night job and have to go to university in the daytime.

So here's what you can do on short term;
- Connect the serial port of the pc to an rs232 msx cart.
But then your problem would be the software for msx. There isn't any
exept for bbs's and thephilips rs232 doesn't have an built in rs232 rom.
So you can't use those system calls either.
- Connect an MSX joystick port to the parrallel port of your pc.
You can do 4-bit biderectional parrallel transfers this way.
You'll have to write the software yourself. But both the msx joystick
port and the pc parralllel port are well documented.


Good luck!

Gerald

Re: MAp

1999-02-10 Thread Philip

That is not very strange.
Map.com makes dos2 read the mapper in stead of the number saved in ram.
And on non-europe msx you cannot read the memory mapper ports.

yes!

 Does this only happen with the 4MB RAM extension, or also without it?
with or without it (like U2 songs)

1999-02-10 Thread Philip

Isn't it possible to connect the MSX to the PC in a way you can access the
harddisk of the pc ?

It would be nice to run some kind of file server on your pc and connect the
msx via serial port,or even better
a network adapter with BNC or RJ-45 connectors.

Even cooler: perhaps it is possible to run TCP/IP on MSX and access the
internet through the pc.

This would make a pc a usefull thing after all.

Well, as far as I know, there is just a little difference between these two
machines. I used to have the 00-version and that caused many problems!!

Why, coz the 00 has a hardware memory bug, which makes it IMPOSSIBLE to
play
most cracked MEGAroms on disk, although you HAVE the necessary 128kB of
memory. In the 20-versions, the bug is solved, so with that machine, you
CAN
play the cracked games...
