In the past few years, openMSX has become available for various platforms, after it initially started as a Linux application. Unfortunately, support for the Windows platform has become an uncertainty recently.
It has been a while, but the MSX Resource Center has once again reached an impressive milestone: on August 25th our Motigo webstats counter broke through the 5,000,000 visits barrier.
SCMD 1.10.2
A new version of SCMD, the multichannel PCM and multichip soundplayer for MSX has been released. In this release, a bug that occurred when writing to OPLL registers whilst changing the pitch of a tone was fixed.
The SCMD player allows you to play multiple samples on one or even two SCC cartridges at the same time, which is similar to playing MOD-files.
fMSX PSP 3.3.25
A new version of this emulator has been released recently. In this update it's possible to write changes to (uncompressed) disk images. The documentation has therefore also added a section regarding all details and warnings.
The organization of the Nijmegen fair has informed us that Wijkcentrum Hatert has been reserved for January 19th, 2008. The fair will be on the usual spot and will have the usual features. The web site will be updated soon and registration will start a few months before the fair. Mark the date into your agendas!
