MSX core

[Glaurung]

I have no problem with the new release and vhd.
Anyway some tape games like SIRFRED still can't load.

[barbaro00]

The ROM games about 99% wotks well. BUT A LOT of tape games and dsk FILES doesnt RUN at all.
Sometimes the same game doesnt run in dsk or tape, and run in ROM file.Strange.
I dont know if its mister fault or the OCM MSX FPGA that mister is based, that doesnt run this tape games.

Playing Golvellius2 in MSX2+ right know, GREAT GAME and exactly the same gameplay as original cartadige.

Yes, there are some games that not run well, sprites collision problems, like Temptations, Perez the mouse...
Or dsk games that not load...

First thing thank for the great work that is being done with this core.

I have observed that at least since the last version, the core do not boot the disk image if you just left another core and it does not matter if the "reset after mount option" is yes. Booting is only possible by re-selecting the disk image or making a hard reset.

I had the same problem but sorgelig was not able to reproduce it on his setup (see page 3 of this thread). The solution that worked for me was to rename the VHD file to msx.vhd and move it to the root folder of the SDHC card.

[the80scomputers]

It may be a solution but I think it is not the right one.

The bug is simple to reproduce. If you load the core just after switching on it will not play, however, if you first load any other core and pass from this to MSX it will.

This core supports load from audio input?
Thanks.

Thanks.

There isn't any mention on the Wiki about the MSX supporting the ADC.

My tapes should wait.

Does anyone know the optimal settings for using this core? I see many options for processors and expansion cards, and it's difficult to know where to begin.

[petraka]

My settings are:

CPU speed normal
CPU type z80
Slots empty
Mapper 2048 kb

It's a port of MSX OCS FPGA, i thinks is updated now.
It works good without any specific setting.
If you play some advanced games like Golvellius2, o Metal Gear2, its better to switch to MSX2+, in f12 menu.

99% games work well with msx2 config (by default).
.rom files runs ok 99%
.dsk and .cas files run ok 50%

Anyway, mister MSX is much better gameplay than openmsx or other emulators.

Try this command before load a game:

SETSMART -F9FC (system reboots automatically)

Solve most of compatibility issues related to msx2 compatibility and mappers.

Can do this on Autoexec.bas? Or will generate a loop? What that command does?
I want sofarun runing dsk with that command...

Thank you!

Try this command in your bas file:

Code: Select all

_SYSTEM("A:\UTILS\SETSMART.COM -F9FC")

It would be more elegant to put the command "A:\UTILS\SETSMART.COM -F9FC" in a batch file and load it with _SYSTEM("A:\PATHTO\YOURBATCHFILE.BAT").

Here is some more information about the _SYSTEM command in BASIC:

Seems that load casssete through audio input improves compatibility with msx2.

This feature is going to be included in mist soon.

On MSX2 game "Aleste2" rom there is a missing spoken phrase just before choose of weapon (where speak another time)
for then start to play

On Mist instead this spoken phrase is present and second one too (i can hear both while on Mister i can hear only one of them)

Thank you

I have been trying for hours to get this Sofarun on my MSX core and can't figure it out. Can some one help me? give me some direction?

??

Just copy sofarun files from website in a "sofarun" folder in your msx vhd.

From msxdos enter sofarun folder,Type sofarun and thats all.

Hi,

I know quite nothing on the MSX... except I always dreamed to get a real one...
Recently, FM PCM Player was released for the MSX (http://www.grauw.nl/projects/fmpcm/) and I'd like to test it on the MSX core but it looks a little complicated. I understood I need to find/create a VHD image but no clue how to do that (I don't have the I/O board)

It says :

System requirements
- MSX2, MSX2+ or MSX turboR
- 128K main RAM (several MB recommended)
- 128K video RAM
- MSX-DOS 2
- MSX-MUSIC with real YM2413

Any help, links, tutorials will be appreciated !

Thanks

Check this post on the MiST subforum: http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.ph ... 75#p357900
It has link to a VHD image that you can use.

Hi.
Some games that work correctly with the release of core 20180520 do not work with the latest release 20190928 such as Maziacs or Livingstone Supongo. In those games it is as if the space key is pressed continuously.

Thx.

[petraka]

Hi!
Another game found that woks in 20180520 core but not in the last one: Hunchback.

[Peredonov]

This core doesn't yet support saving to tape/cassette, does it? Too bad Metal Gear needs this to save (there is a rom that can save to disk, but that is hack, only in English and not the original Japanese).

[Glaurung]

It's possible to connect to internet (BBS) ???

With an original MSX is possible with a cartadige that has a LAN port.Mister has a LAN port as well.

I'm trying using TCPIP pile, INL (internet Nestor Lite+ ramnhelpr ,but doenst work. "No ethernet UNAPI implementation found"

https://www.konamiman.com/msx/msx-s.html#inl2

However,when i use the command TIME from MSX-DOS its responds ok the internet clock,because my mister is connected to internet.So msx-mister has acces to intenet in some way.

Anyone can help here about Aleste2 please?
