New YAPE Release!
Posted by Csabo on 2005-03-10
After a five month pause, the latest version of YAPE was released today! As usual, it's a worthwhile download, bringing you more accurate emulation and more options. Most notable is the addition of a drive-related hack: pressing CTRL+ALT+X in YAPE activates a workaround that will let you load any demo that uses Coby Loader 8.0. With this, even more demos are now working on this most amazing emulator. Another big improvement: the sideborder removal in the new Chaos trackmo actually works! Cheers to Gaia! Rush to download your copy:


MConv v1.6 Released!
Posted by Csabo on 2005-03-08
TLC brings you a new version of his freq converter: MConv v1.6 is here. This is quite simply the best freq converter for the Plus/4 in existence. It's small, fast, accurate and pretty advanced. (For those who don't know: a freq converter is a piece of code that converts SID musics so that they play on the TED - on they fly.) Recently there was some talk on the Hungarian forums regarding converters and TED vs SID in demos. Well, this is definitely a valid choice for anyone still writing demos. Read the documentation and download it now! Respects to TLC for releasing this.


New Demo Release!
Posted by Csabo on 2005-03-06
It's a well-known fact that prolific Plus/4 coder Skoro has an "all-work, no-bs" attitude, and here comes once again to prove that with a new demo release. 20 Years +4 has arrived from Assassins, featuring graphics from Kichy. This is the second demo (following +4 Forever/TLT) that celebrates the 20th birthday of our beloved machine. In style and execution it can be compared to Genetic Faulty, and this one-file(!) piece of code also pushes the limits of what you can do in only 64K. There are at least 13 different effects to watch with many variations (depending on how you look at it, you can count it even more). But it's not about sheer numbers, it's a quality, well executed production, and there's no mistaking the fact that this is polished work. Download and enjoy it. Big respects to Skoro and Kichy!
