AW: Mess Emulator für diverse Schachcomputer ist fertig!
 

Hi,

wir haben ja in CB-Emu außer Schach auch einige andere Brettspiele (z.B. Dame, Reversi, Backgammon, Gomoku), aber eines fehlt mir noch: Mühle!

Ich habe das immer gerne gespielt, aber meine Suche nach so einem Mühle-spielenden Gerät im Internet war bisher vergeblich.
Gibt es so etwas wirklich nicht, oder kennt jemand doch so ein Gerät?

Grüße,
Franz

Could you be more specific, please? When I look up the translation of “Mühle,” there are many meanings, all very different from each other. From ‘mill’ to “milling machine.” :D
What kind of game is it?

Edit: Oh, ok.... this one?

I think I remember a Handheld that included this game, but I can't find it. Maybe hap has seen it, since he has emulated many games for Handhelds, such as those with HMCS40 MCU. It may have a different name but be the same game.

Yep, that's exactly what I mean - I just didn't remember the English name (9-men-morris) anymore.
Ok, I'll now search for 'morris' in MAME instaed of 'mill' ... ;)

Nope, I don't know this game, or a handheld version of it. I wouldn't be surprised if one existed.

There are plenty of other strategy electronic tabletop games or boardgames in MAME (formerly MESS). Examples:

Ideal Toy Electronic Detective
Invicta Electronic Master Mind
Invicta Super-Sonic Electronic Master Mind
Kenner Star Wars: Electronic Battle Command Game
Lakeside Le Boom
Mattel Electronics Dungeons & Dragons: Computer Labyrinth Game
Mattel Electronics Computer Gin
Milton Bradley Comp IV
Milton Bradley Dark Tower
Milton Bradley Electronic Battleship
Parker Brothers Code Name: Sector
Parker Brothers Electronic Master Mind
Parker Brothers Stop Thief: Electronic Cops and Robbers

Well, I've found "Nine Men's Morris" in 'apple2_flop_orig.xml' in MAME, but that's a program for the Apple II, and of course I don't want to add a complete Apple-PC emulation for just this game.
In your list I only know "Master Mind" (never heard of any of the other ones) - I'll check if any of these games would be worth to add it to CB-Emu (and only if it's a 'standalone' device).

Are there any photos online of CXG Sphinx Legend that show the button panel? Or does someone here have a photo they can share?
Not the one on spacious mind's site, that picture is small, and not the mockup/prototype in the 1992 brochure. And not Legend II either.

edit: found one, and it has what I wanted to see: the position of the lines and their colors.

Re: Mess Emulator für diverse Schachcomputer ist fertig!
 

Then... Exactly the same layout as CXG Sphinx Concerto! Right?

Re: Mess Emulator für diverse Schachcomputer ist fertig!
 

Yes, button locations and labels are same.

CXG Sphinx Legend ist emuliert, danke an Berger fur ROM dump.
It's the same ROM as Accolade/Concerto.

Although this was at a low playing level, is it allergic to finding a checkmate idea? :D I was trying to lose here, at move 20 (ply 40 in the undo counter) I only had a king and 4 pawns left.
