MSX 1 emulator for playstation, version 0.5
This version was a quick hack in 3 days, and the 3rd thing I made for my
Yaroze system. One of the main things I had to do, was to convert the
file loading routines for loading the .ROM files to something I could use
with my yaroze. A quick solution was to convert the binary .ROM files to
.H files to be included with my sources. This is a simple solution until
I can load files through the serial link.
Usage:
Because the .ROM files are (I think ?) still copyrightened you should get
your own version. You need MSX.ROM and a 16 Kb game rom (or remove the
LoadCart(gamerom,0); line in msx.c). Try the fMSX homepage for more information about getting
this rom. The program bintoh.exe will convert
binary files to .h files. Usage: bintoh infile outfile stringname.
Convert the MSX.ROM file to msxrom.h using: bintoh msx.rom msxrom.h msxrom
Convert your 16 kb gamerom using: bintoh game.rom gamerom.h gamerom, or remove the LoadCart(gamerom,0); line in msx.c
Use 'make' to make a new version of the fmsx executable
use 'siocons auto' to upload the fmsx executable to your playstation
The cursor movement keys are emulated using the keypad, and the X is the
spacebar. The upper buttons are '1','2','3','4' respectively.
I read this, now how can I get it ?
Here it is, in tarred and gzipped form.
the .bin is just to let netscape know that it is for DOWNLOAD, and not
to be viewed on the screen.
