What a wonderful job you are doing with sofarun.
Great support with sofarunit that reopened the world of launching dsk files on-the-fly
Grat job also with unzipping code and long name support...
..maybe you are preparing a msx2 version of sofarun to use the 80columns for a better browsing experience and to show all the name in case of long name..
It woul be great.
Just a question. I saw that sofarunit sees the mapped external ram of my Mfrsccsd. But sofarun doesn't do the same with roms? In fact i cannot use GameMaster2 due to a low amount of ram? I got 128k but it seems not to read the 512k of Mfrsccsd.
Are you working on it?
Could be possible to include a section for customizing the line option for opfxsd command?
Could be a GameMaster3 the next incredible project to evolve sofarun?
Good job and thanks for all you done until now (and beyond)
Thanks ! The next SofaRun will handle the zip files with long file names, displayed in 40 colums (limited to 37 or so characters in the list, and with an extrra 3 or 4 lines area on the bottom of the screen displaying the full name). That will do the job and work on all MSX. The MSX 2 version will probably work in screen 7 and use proportional fonts (but do not expect to see that before end of 2016 !).
The /U option will be added in the menus of the next release.
Your memory issue is weird, the 512KB of the MFRSCC should be used as main slot, and the Game Master 2 should definitively work. I guess you're using Nextor, could you try the "memory" command and report the result here ?
Thanks. I will check!
I think that /U support will be ok, but as you can see on wiki there could be necessary sometime to have a more complex line option, like /A16 /U.
Just an additional idea: Why not add some extensions like *.MOD and *.MBM so you can run your music through Sofarun as well? Or can you do that yourself?
Uhm.. and .pt3 and many others...
And why not image and movie? .sc2 .mfu .eva
Sofarun as the ultimate media and support manager, not only a browser
Wow
