Hi all,

Did someone ever preserve MSX-Gids software, which they published? One of them was Adventure Disk, which can be found advertised on the back side of MSX-Gids 26, for instance.

I like to add, did anyone scan/digitize the msx-gids magazines. I know the mccm's are online in pdf format, and some msx-fan magazines. Next to the software, wouldn't it be a great idea to preserve the 'paper' magazines aswell ?

I just preserved MSX-Gids Diskmagazine 3 (2 disks) and MSX Gids disk 13,17,18,19. But that's all I have from the MSX Gids on disk.

TheKid do you searching for a special number or the whole collection ? .
Is it possible to dump the dsk files of the disks Sylvester ? .

@Junior, no I was just wondering. Everyone is concerned with preserving the games, but my thought was "how about the magazines". Just for the art alone I like to "read" the msx-fans. Although I have a few of them in pdf format I would love to have them all in pdf format. I was super glad several people put in a lot of effort to preserve the mccms online. It gives people who didn't own the collection the chance to read them aferall. Wouldn't it be great to preserve the magazines aswell.

Oooooh, yes! Can someone do that, pretty please? Doesn't need to be everything at once, of course. Just a magazine at a time. Once a month would be fast enough for me (just like old times).

[edit]
That was just a suggestion, of course. Any magazine at all at any interval would be great.

@junior: I have the dsk files but does somebody know how to upload them to msxarchive.nl ?

Hello Turrebo, that's a nice start Can you put the pdf somewhere where it can be downloaded without the need of have to make a login first ?

@Sylvester
Wow, thanks! Great quality, too. When the kids are in school, daddy is going to wallow in nostalgia ;-)

@TheKid
If it's all right with Sylvester, I can upload it to a more accessible place. Any suggestions?

@turrebo & @thekid when I find some time I will upload them to https://archive.org/ and link them on Generation-MSX.
