MSX #26

Closed Roolandoo closed 3 years ago

Roolandoo commented 3 years ago

Hello, I am very interested in making Rombundler work with games for the classic MSX system. I tried on Windows with bluemsx_libretro.dll and fmsx_libretro.dll but they don't work.

Is there a way to make it work or is it just incompatible? Greetings and thank you very much.

Indeed, I was able to load an MSX game in Ludo, but not in rombundler. Let me check why...

It's failing here https://github.com/libretro/blueMSX-libretro/blob/master/libretro.c#L983-L985

I tried copying the bluemsx.ini, the bluemsx_history.ini, and setting the right options.ini

I still can't find why it's failing.

properties->emulation.machineName is set to a string like "MSX2" which seems totally fine.

OK I could at least launch a ROM by following the instructions here https://docs.libretro.com/library/bluemsx/#bios

Copying the Machines folder.

Yes, Yes, Yes. It works !!! I never would have come up with that solution. You are great, friend!!!

Thanks a lot.
