fMSX for Dingux 1.1.0
The handheld Dingoo is a nifty little console, cheap, and very popular. A few months ago, openMSX for Dingux (Linux for the Dingoo) became a reality, and now fMSX follows! ZX81 offers fMSX for Dingux 1.1.0, the version which was previously ported to GP2X-Wiz. In addition, the source code is available.
We have added a large bag of Moonblaster music by Meits to our downloads section. This collection is Meits' version of something which - probably - every MSX musician has: a large collection of unfinished tunes, ideas, sketches and such. Among them is music from Aleste, Randar 3 and plenty others.
As was to be expected, during the last days of the MSXart unlimited contest new entries drop in one after each other. JoseR just submitted three new entries to spice up an already successful contest. Two of these images are based on Konami's Nemesis 3 while the other one is based on Yie Ar Kung-Fu, again by Konami.
As with many contests, near a deadline the crowd wakes up and starts submitting entries. This situation was evident with MSXdev'08 as well - and it may become evident during the MSXdev'09 deadline again. From Brazilian MSX user muffie comes the next entry for MSXart unlimited: F1 Spirit.
A new wallpaper was submitted to the MSXart unlimited contest, organized by Passion MSX. This time, Konamito took the easel and the brush and created a picture based on Freddy Hardest.
Delta Soft's development of Thunderbirds to the Rescue, the successor of Thunderbirds are Go released back in 1999, is going very well. They are planning to release it at the Nijmegen 2010 fair. The game will be sold as 13 disks, or a 64 MB compact flash version with many extras. Details will be revealed later this year.
paraMSX 0.50 beta
Korean MSX user sharksym, in recent times known for his MMC interface cartridge, released paraMSX 0.50 beta.
Meridian, created by Michiel de Vries, is a versatile MIDI-based (delta)steptime tracker supporting both external MIDI devices and Sunrise's OPL4 based Moonsound.
We have added Bargain 8.50 to our ever growing freeware downloads section. Bargain is a lossless compression tool for MSX images in screen mode 5 up to 12. If you have any freeware material you'd wish to share with the world, you may consider our downloads section.
More wallpapers are being submitted to the MSXart unlimited contest on Passion MSX. The calendar is already a certainty, but until the 18th of October you have the chance to submit a wallpaper as well. José Ramón did so as well, and thanks to him an MSXart Unlimited Tribute wallpaper can be downloaded.
