I tested MSX1 ROM Games based on GoodMSX 0.999.2
The following Software stiil doesn't work correctly.
01.Animal Land (X) 02.Bosconian (Works : But the speed on Explosion is very slow) 03.Bouken Roman (X) 04.Galaga (Works : But the speed on Explosion is very slow) 05.Harry Fox MSX Special (ASCII 16KB with SRAM 2KB Problem) 06.Harry Fox Yuki No Maou-Hen (X) 07.Morita Kazuhiro's Othello (X) 08.MSX Audio (X) 09.Japanese MSX Write I (X) 10.Zanac (X)
(X) means it doesn't work on this Snapshot at all.
Except these 10 Softwares, the compatibility is more better than oldest version.

Here is Working Report : MSX1 Rom Software (On Snapshot 1.652)
The following misemulated software now works on snapshot of 1.652
"Morita Kazuhiro's Othello" "Zanac" (But it is not perfect. It must be run on 16KB RAM of MSX machine, too)

I just did a checkup on the problematic cases, and this is what still doesn't work: 1) Nausicaa (only works on MSX1, but I guess this is a problem of the game itself) 2) The Bosconian/Galaga slowdown problem still persists 3) Japanese MSX Write I doesn't work at all 4) Zanac: doesn't work at all on 16 kB, shows corrupted title screen in other cases
That's all! Good work!

I'm creating seperate bug reports for the remaining problems and will close this one. See there.

Reported by atarulum on 2002-12-25 11:23 UTC Hi.
I tested all GoodMSX1's Rom Software on openMSX snapshot (Linux / Win32 Unofficial)
Most of MSX1 Software works on openMSX well. But a few of Software doesn't run correctly. Maybe the main reason is the following.
1)MSX ROM (BASIC Program Area from 8000H) doesn't work on openMSX. (For Example : 3D Golf Simulation / Naisucaa / Pairs / Star Command / Etc.)
2)A few of Namcot's Game (Galaga / Bosconian) perfomance (speed) is down when the explosion scene does appear.
3)A few of MSX ROM (32KB) doesn't have no header (41,42H) on 4000H. (Exist on 8000H only). In this case, openMSX can't recognize at all. (For Example : Eagle Fighter / Thunder Bolt / etc.)
4)A few of ASCII16KB With S-RAM (2KB) doesn't support correctly.
But openMSX (Win32 Unofficial) snapshot support 1) MSX ROM (BASIC Program).
Here is the Rom list openmsx doesn't support correctly. (I ran all MSX1's Roms based on CF-2000 (RAM 16KB), But a few of game doesn't run on CF-2000. It is related with RAM's size.)
01.A1 Spirit -- It works well. But with CF-2000 (16KB RAM) / Normal MSX1 Japanese BIOS Rom (CRC32:ee229390), A1 Spirit doesn't work at all. It is openMSX's bug. (A1 Spirit must work on CF-2000 and nornal MSX1 Japanese BIOS)
02.Animal Land -- This includes ASCII 08KB Mapper. But it is related with power-on state misemulated. Also according to MSX user, this game expect page 0 selected in all banks when booted, hanging up otherwise. In fact, that's the standard default state for ALL cartridges I've seen with Ascii mapper. This game doesn't work on all other MSX emulator.
03.BASIC Nyuumon I/II -- See 3)
04.Bouken Roman -- I don't know why this game works on CF-2000 or other configulation.
05.Burger Time -- See 3)
06.Demon Crystal -- See 3)
07.Eagle Fighter -- See 3)
08.Harry Fox MSX Special -- See 4)
09.Harry Fox Yuki No Maou-Hen -- This is like Ascii mapper, but actual pages mapped are (6000)2 and (7000)2+1. For details, you had better refer the dump tools for Harry Fox.(DUMPHF.BIN)

10.Morita Kazuhiro's Othello -- See 3)
11.MSX Audio -- This uses Special MegaRom Mapper. (Switch Address : 7FFEH , Block Size : 8000H (0000- 7FFF)
12.Japanese MSX Write I -- This uses ASCII 16KB. But it doesn't work at all. This needs Jis 1st Kanji.
13.Zanac -- This Game must be Run on 16KB/32KB RAM of MSX machine. But it works on 64KB only. Also the Title Graphics doesn't be shown correctly. (Just like broken)
You can download GoodMSX1's Rom Sets from there.
