#v9990 — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #v9990, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Used my free time this weekend to write OpenMSX (my first collab) & debugger code. Nothing major, just detecting invalid V9990 register access. Lots of small fixes for the debugger. Maybe we should start thinking about a proper debugger release? #msx #openMSX #v9990 #debugger #emulator #cpp #qt #emudev

  2. New video of my V9990-powered Air Buster. The first stage is more fleshed out now, with two layers of buildings when the city comes in. #msx #v9990 #shmup #airBuster #AeroBlasters youtube.com/watch?v=2x_wEniLEV

    Have you spotted the X68000 building? ;)

  7. CW: re: tight constraints breeding creativity

    @kelbot tight constraints is also a discussion point that keeps coming up with each iteration of the #MSXdev competition btw; just see the comments on the 2021 edition's announcement: msx.org/news/challenges/en/msx

    You have one side arguing the constraints should be as tight as possible to force contestants to focus on the gameplay and clever tricks so a game actually gets finished, and the other side who says it should also be open for later generations of #MSX, such as #MSX2, more RAM, and perhaps even audio and graphics extensions such as #OPL4 and #V9990 and also judged as such.

  8. That's pretty cool: #ThunderForceIV tune on a work-in-progress #MSX music #tracker supporting #Konami's #SCC soundchip, and the builtin #ProgrammableSoundGenerator aka #PSG, as well as the #SN: youtube.com/watch?v=j2bHDKXdXW

    It has some pretty high specs though, requiring the latest revision in the line of MSX standards, a #turboR machine, as well as the #V9990 VDP (for instance in the form of a #GFX9000 or #Video9000 video expansion cartridge).

    the good folks over on msx.org might be able to help with #MSX related questions. :)
    I couldn't quickly find anything relevant, but their (or I guess I should say 'our', as technically I'm still one of their moderators with some admin rights) wiki might be worth a browse too: msx.org/wiki/

    @djsundog #SymbOS sure is sexy yeah, at least from what I've seen running on #MSX2, or higher with, #V9990 VDP.

  11. @vertigo why rip out the VDP when you can already slot in a Sunrise #Graphics9000 or #Tecnobytes #V9990 #Powergraph; both expansion cards based on the #Yamaha #V9978 VDP?

    This expandability was one of the beautiful things of the #MSX standards.

    And while my #Philips #NMS8250 #MSX2 isn't as pretty as this one, I definitely have fond memories of growing up with it.
