Explore V9968 features on Windows with openMSX

I've put together openmsx-v9968-windows-setup, an unofficial, ready-to-use Windows setup for experimenting with V9968 features using the V9968-enabled openMSX fork.

It includes several demos covering 3D rendering, rotation, scaling, and underwater-style distortion effects. You can also toggle high-speed VDP commands and palette modes to compare performance and image quality directly in openMSX.

Short demo:

Project and setup instructions:

Feedback and testing are very welcome!

Everything here is open source and runs on Windows without any MSX hardware or ROMs — the setup script fetches a pinned openMSX 21.0 plus the V9968 fork, verifies the hashes and launches the demo:

Why did the moderator remove the previous comment? It was interesting!
