This is what me missed: top10 dutch coders
RHJL van de Moosdijk
gave an example just to name a few......I am not saying number 1 on my
list is the best.....just what i think were the best 10 Dutch coders
on MSX,
- Stefan Danes (Magicracks)
- Alex Wulms (XelaSoft)
- Cas Creemers (Parallax)
- Ivo Wubbels (MSX-Engine)
- Remco Schrijvers (MoonSoft)
- Andre Ligthart (Anma)
- Nico Lubbers (Station)
- Dennis Geerdink (MSX-Engine)
- Remo Jongeneelen (Comjoetania)
- Roman v/d Meulen (Fuzzy Logic)
Who's next?

Jan hmmm.....he is ok, but not a top10 rated coder, at least not in my
opinion. Wonder how he is doing at Eurocom :)

Arnaud!!! What are you telling me ?? That those Fony stuff were
actually CODED? Oh man, who is going to believe that..... I would
never have believed they were actually programmed.
I thought Fony demos were made by putting graphics and text on a disk
and all the freaky effects were made by accident, when The prentender
used his Freaky Fwang!(tm) magnet on the disk......sheeeesh, you learn
something new everyday....Fony could actually code...
Well anyway, I must apologize to my old friend The Pretender then for
missing out on him....I will apoligize later again for not remembering
his real name, but not now. (I don't apologize twice in one message)

No.... Ofcourse we didn't ocde anything... We just pressed some keys on our
computers by accident et voila... There we had the first real-time
calculated 3D effects on the MSX.... pres a few more buttones and et
voila... The first demo with own-written scc-music and of course we didn't
have to do anything for a replayer.. we simply prayed to God.. and there it
was !!! ;->

Well.. Actually... THe 3D routine was stolen from the amiga !! HE converted
it to MSX and was surprised by the speed he got. Just have a look on FONY
DEMODISK #1.. You can even controll the motion yourself... No bad eh ???

Nope they don't....no idea what happened to Erik Druijss, but John v/d
Poelgeest started FCS and Hayo quit MSX, I know he worked for PC
active, no idea if he still does.....
And why flames Arnoud ? It's ok not to like them, but they did do some
goodt hings for the MSX like Fac Demo 4 and Soundtracker....

He does'nt any more, to my dismay. Changed job a bit over a year back, now
works for an outfit called XXlink.

Sorry, but I think FAC demo 4 was SHIT!
Liked part V much better, with those bouncy-balls... and the MIDI sound!

Of course, good old Cees! You know Anne he is still active ? Not sure
what he is doing these days but 3 years back he was still writing
stuff for the CD-I....quite funny.
Oh and Wammes, I did mean Ries Vriend, not Paul te Bokkel, but thanx

But Manuel, I don't think you saw the FAC demo 4 when it was first
released.....coz it was the first demo with own written MSX-Audio
music, and it sounded better then anything thought possible with the
MSX Audio....it was a major breakthrough.....before that time no one
really wanted an MSX Audio, the FMPac was a lot better.....but FAC
changed that and started a hype around the Music Module here in
Holland........(this was in.....1990?)

Of course I remember Markus, I met him a few times at the Interexpo in
Eindhoven, nice chap I might add.....doing heavy VB stuff now eh? Is
that possible....VB isn't that heavy :) I just got a new CD from
Microsoft with 450 MB of VB tools ($350) so I can do some new
experimenting....already wrote an Arranger MP3 replayer and
all....quite nice....but not heavy :)
Greetz,
Ruud.
Wammes Witkop
server-client systems that have to give a more or less real-time response on
flight-bookings can be heavy, depending on the number of users, planes and
passengers. Balancing file-trees can become a real pain in the behind, for
instance, if you just have to do it on the run. Garbage piles up, so to
speak.

<about former MC(C)M editors>
So now we know what happened to these former editors.. What about the
others?
I thought Harry van Horen was working for HomeSoft these days?
And what about M.B.Immerzeel?
Marco Soijer? (Is that the correct spelling?)
Ronald Blankenstijn (The former chief-editor!)
Lies Muller? (Did she get in because of her letter about women using
computers? Or was it another letter? (Anyway, I remember a letter of her
in the "Post" rubriek, in MCM 5 or so))
And the other names I'm forgetting...
And what about these Stark-Texel/Kluwer bookwriters, like Albert
Sickler, Aaldrik van Utteren, Wessel Akkermans, ACJ Groeneveld, Marcel
LeBelle, Hans Klopper?
Or the MSX CLub Magazine people, like Wim Dewijngaert? Jan van Roshum?
I'd really like to know what happened to these people since they left
the MSX scene... (if they did) or at least what they're doing now...
Can you give us some info, Wammes? Or maybe other people?
Wammes Witkop
Good grief! Do you really expect me to anwer all these questions? Loads of
people! I'll give you info on some...

Still is, one of the directors there. Actually, Harry started working with
Homesoft many years ago and we had a deep converstation wether he could stay
on as our games-reviewer then. He did - and I must admit he gave Homesoft
titles a good trashing often enough.
> And what about M.B.Immerzeel?
No idea.
> Marco Soijer? (Is that the correct spelling?)
Alive and well, as an aeronautics engineer.
> Ronald Blankenstijn (The former chief-editor!)
Somewhere in Spain, selling satelite-dishes and decoders to expatriats.
> Lies Muller? (Did she get in because of her letter about women using

Lies wrote that letter after Ronald had called a HitBit feminine in it's
design. She freaked out and let fly. Actually, that was the only letter in
the whole history of the mag that Blankenstein answered himself. And even
back then Lies and I were close, though not married yet. Nowadays Lies has
her own workshop in Utrecht - we don't live together out of choice - and
gives courses on building musical instruments.
> And the other names I'm forgetting...
Many of them. Ramon van de Winkel, Robbert Wethmar, Hans Niepoth, Edgar
Hildering, many many more. Some of them are still friends, some write for
PC-Active.

Ask Frank. He should be here as well, but is very busy.

Yes, especially about very Japanese text-adventures, like Yajikita, or
something...

Ah! I thought you got in contact with Lies throught this letter! But
when
did she start making the K&K's?

Yes, those names I was forgetting!
Can you tell more about them? (And also Ronald Egas, please)

Too busy I guess! ;-)
John van Poelgeest
demo I was asked to join the FAC. Erik Duijs really wrote fantastic music,
but not at e real high speed. So they needed a second musician. That was in
1990, indeed.
btw, FAC 5 was completely written by FCS (Jeff Timmer and me), Hayo, Rolf,
Erik and Willem only saw the demo when it was finished.
