#openmsx — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #openmsx, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I created a profiler with some lines of Tcl script thanks to OpenMSX new Trace Viewer. It's easy to use and doesn't require the programmer to insert INs and OUTs in his code, so it works with old ROMs too. #openMSX #msx #tcl #debugging #gamedev #profiler #homebrew #8bit #devtools

  2. Using #openMSX to prepare a custom 360KB disk image (MSX1 machine with MSX-DOS 1.80) for my #Sony #HitBit machine that will include #ZSM #assembler and #F83 #Forth ...

  3. Hardware accelerated OpenMSX would not run on Wayland because GLEW expects GLX instead of EGL. So I wrote a tiny temporary fix until GLEW is fixed upstream and the major distros catch up. #glew #wayland #openMSX #emu #gnu #hardwareAcceleration #openGL github.com/openMSX/openMSX/pul

  4. #MenaceFromTriton, a #SHMUP entry for the 2020 edition of the MSXdev compo, was quite good, and I enjoyed playing through it on stream. :)
    I suck at it though, but thanks to #openMSX emulator's reverse functionality, I could finish the game by undoing my mistakes.

    When I have some time I should export the gameplay video. :)

  5. Playing some Menace From Triton for #MSXDev for the #MSX using #openMSX on twitch.tv/FiXato before switching over to #Hearthstone.

  6. My current WeeChat setup

    Since it's come up in conversation a couple of times in the past week (waves at @snowdusk__ and @yarmo), here's a #screenshot of my current #WeeChat setup (though with different buffers selected than my usual arrangement).

    "What am I looking at on the screenshot?"

    A buffer list ¹ on the left. Buffers represent the channels, private message streams and status timelines from the various chat media you are connected to.
    Side the buffer list are a variety of horizontally and vertically panes, which @weechat called 'windows', each window showing the contents of one
    ² of the buffers.

    "What buffers are visible in these window panes?"

    From top left to bottom right these are:

    "What's making it work?"

    All running in a #tmux terminal multiplexer session, running under #WSL2 on #Windows, in the #WindowsTerminalPreview #terminal client.

    Footnotes

    ¹ though I still use buffers.pl script rather than the built-in buflist plugin because I'm too lazy to migrate my settings to make it look and act in the way I've gotten used to.
    ² or more, as buffers can be merged, displaying the contents of each of the merged buffers chronologically in the same window pane.

  8. Did a bit of a #ToolAssistedSpeedrun challenge to myself today.
    I wanted to see if I could defeat the series of 10 minibosses and its follow-up regular boss in #Nemesis2 on the #MSX, using the buggy 'Fire Blaster' weapon (which seems to do no damage at all), and the napalm missiles.
    You have to destroy them before they go off-screen, or else their core shield gets restored.
