Hmm, that's highly mysterious. Did you try removing the backup battery as well? If that doesn't help, then I'm pretty sure the problem is unrelated to HT, since otherwise it would be the first program to permanently brick a TI. Perhaps the binfiles are corrupted. Or are you by any chance trying to run the 83p version instead of 8xp?

In any case I'm still completely clueless as to what causes the bug. I'm therefore intending to rewrite HT from scratch. I've done some preliminary work already, but won't get around to really delve into it before January. So please be patient, and once again sorry for the troubles caused.

If you have gtk3 installed, you should in theory be able to build it from source. Haven't tried it though.

Edit: Just tried to build it with gtk2, it works fine! All you need to do is change the flags in line 18 and 19 of sdl/makefile.linux accordingly.

Had to post this, because it's awesome. Dark, minimalistic, electro-ish DMG stuff with some beautiful chip ballads (with vocals) inbetween. Check it out, yo.

Yes! This is some of the most beautiful Amiga chipstuff I've ever heard. Thanks for sharing.

New Vince Kaichan, awesome!

Yay, some fresh SMS music! Indeed something you don't hear every day. And it sounds great, too.

I'm using one of those el cheapo "digital rear mirrors" for my Speccy as well. Works well, just don't expect the colors to be anywhere near where they should be.
Another good thing about those is that they usually accept a wide range of voltages (mine works with 4.5-15V), so you can pretty much use any spare psu or mobile phone charger you have laying around.

Should really be called "allchip player", as it supports some 300 formats. Happy drooling guys tongue

You currently need to compile it yourself, except if you happen to be on Ubuntu 64bit.
Anyway, head over to pouet for details.

If you want an NTSC ZX, I'd say look for a Timex 2068 instead - not quite the same, but close enough. NTSC ZXes are ultra-rare.

Btw Herzeleid is still available at http://git.daifukkat.su/?p=herzeleid.gi … ds/master.
However, even though I managed to build it, I can't get it to actually run, it just crashes with a "can't open device" error.

If somebody else wants to try, lines 4-6 of the makefile need to be changed accordingly:

LIBS = -ldl -lao -lm -lpthread
INCDIR = -I/usr/include/ao/
LIBDIR = -L/usr/lib

Cheers and good luck with YM2151 music making.

Thanks, huge thumbs up for this!

Hmm, can't quite figure out what this means. Does the binary run or not? If it doesn't, perhaps you're missing the libsdl developement packages (libsdl1.2-dev or libsdl2-dev). Make sure you've got one of those installed and then build xtmc again.
