Daniel Vik, the main developer of blueMSX, has released a new demo for MSX1. The demo, which comes as a 512kB MegaROM, shows impressive tricks such as a smooth full-screen scroller, a screensplit between SCREEN 2 and SCREEN 3 and more.

try it in the new blueMSX instead, works like a charm. It's an AMAZING demo, Dvik. I'm looking forward to the next one. Keep it up!

the problem in blueMSX versions before 2.3 the mapper guess routine is quite faulty... This is fixed in 2.3. You can always select the ASCII8 mapper yourself when you're in the file open dialog. It has an extra dropdown box.

If anyone can bring an MSX1 along to the MSX Club Groningen meeting, I'll bring a flashcartridge with the demo with me

Amazing stuff!
Great work!
I love the PSG samples.

After BodyHammeRs feedback on the scroller being too slow, I replaced the scroll engine with a more efficient one which gave a four times faster pixel scroll

. I uploaded a new version of the demo at http://www.bluemsx.com/demos/waves11.zip

Snout, if you want you are more then welcome to put the demo on your downloads section. Just make sure you download it again before putting it there (the image may have changed a little bit)
