Dingux-MSX: MSX Emulator for Dingux v1.1.0

Hi All,

fMSX is a famous emulator of the MSX, MSX2, and MSX2+ 8bit home computers.
It runs MSX/MSX2/MSX2+ software on many different platforms including Windows and Unix.
See http://fms.komkon.org/fMSX/ for further informations.

It has been first written by Marat Fayzullin, and later Vincent van Dam ported it on SDL.

Here is a port on Dingoo/Dingux of the version i've previously ported to GP2X-Wiz.

How to use it ? Everything is in the README.txt file.

It's distributed under Marat Fayzullin's license for the original MSX part, and under FreeBSD license for all the Dingoo part.

Here is a full working binary version :
dingux-msx-v1.1.0-bin.zip

And the source code :
dingux-msx-v1.1.0-src.zip

Enjoy,

Zx.

Good, a MSX emulator, another 8 bits machine... Spectrum? Commodore 64? ¿SIM COUPE? XD Thank you

Nice release

I won't state the obvious but look in my homepage

Hi Zx,

Nice work, but why didn't you base it on openMSX?? (Actually, we already did a binary release as well for Dingux...)

Have fun!

Hi Manuel,

I've ported colem and fmsx a long time ago on my psp (Marat Fayzullin stuff), this is the only good reason.

I haven't tried openmsx, it might be good. I know fmsx and i've optimized it to run smoothlessly on gp2x-f100 and PSP,

Cheers, Zx

Hi Zx,

Well, I invite you to join us porting openMSX to PSP! We already had it running on Dingoo and GP2X, but except for the Dingoo quick-and-dirty release have never really released it. It works fine, though.

I guess you shouldn't have much trouble with it.

Note that currently we don't have developers with a PSP.

Have fun!

Manuel

PS: feel free to join us on #openMSX on irc.freenode.net

Hi Manuel,

It would be with pleasure, but i'm rather busy with dingo for the moment. The psp scene is dying, i don't plan to work on it in a near future (may be for xmas i will publish a "xmas emu pack"

)

You can add me in your contact on gmail if you want (you've got my email),

Zx

ROMTypeA in MSX.c/MSX.h is guessed automatically, but on a lot or ROMs it fails, so the original fMSX.c allows you to set this parameter to a number from 0 to MAXMAPPERS-1

Can you please add this option, make it "auto" by default, and make it storable once number selected ?

ZX81 I got a complete database which identifies the right mapper types with the right SHA1 value, let me know if you want a dump with these values. They could be helpful.

Very good idea, i've sent you an email

#7.1 zx-81 on Oct 25 2009, 09:48 Reply

Zx, I've implemented the ROM detection by SHA1 and added some other features like full-screen upscaling.

See my mod on cax.nm.ru

I'll appreciate if you incorporate my changes into fMSX on other mobile platforms.

cax.

Cax,

Can you let me know what the numbers are supposed to represent in the carts.sha file, I'll make can make a nice dump with +-2500roms files (I believe this almost holds all working dumps ever made)
