fMSX 2.x source
 
The source for fmsx http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/fMSX was available upon request, but the author has since lost his sources ( I think I read it here on eab many years ago). So, did anyone request it back in the days, and might have a copy?

I *might* have a copy. I did at least have some sources from Hans (in particular the Z80 code as I was working on a Speccy emulator).
It's probably in a old Thor email archive somewhere. I'll have a look around and see what I can find.

No luck I'm afraid.

I did find an email from Hans dated December 98 urging people to upload sources to Aminet (which is somewhat ironic). Looks like he scraped emails from Aminet.

I found the source for fMSX 1.4 (at least I think, 7zip or lha won't open the lzx file). Let me know if this is useful and I will try other archivers.

Thanks for the effort of looking nogginthenog. 1.4 source would be interesting too, please zone it, and I'll have a look too, if the archive isn't corrupt.

I'm sure someone has it out there, though, gathering dust in a hard drive in a storage somewhere.

fMSX_1.4_src.zip added to the zone. Silly me, I was thinking lzx was the same as lzh. Unlzx from Aminet opened it.

I like to study those old emulators source code. What a nice surprise!

No, the author didn't lose his 2.x source code and has given me the permission to upload it to aminet.:xmas Just need some time to prepare the packages!!

Hello

There's fMSX 2.4a available for Amiga. It's described as "source", but it's source with compiled executables (fMSX for 020/030 and fMSX060 for 040/060). You could need also fMSX.data file.

Just so someone didn't miss. The source code were uploaded to aminet quite a while ago. Cheers.

Hey guys! Nice to see there's still interest in this. The source code that was posted to Aminet is legit; I gave it to ascp (I think ;-) ) for the purpose of uploading.

It was lost, or at least seriously misplaced, for quite a few years. I managed to recover it a while ago when I finally decided to sell my Amiga hardware, and found that my main harddisk miraculously booted for one final time. It really was the final time; afterwards it died completely...
