*UPDATE*: PSPMSX: MSX Emulator for PSP v1.0.9 (fix Snatcher)

*UPDATE!* One minor fix before Zx-81 can take five. After people noticed that v1.0.8 (ultimate) had some issues with Snatcher, he worked over to produce v1.0.9: the Snatcher bugfix. Even the pic we used below (from Zx) has been changed to reflect this update. And, as Zx himself closes his release posts, enjoy!



Quality control: now PSPMSX v1.0.9 will play Snatcher. - Image 1Zx-81 has dropped by our forums to drop off, and we quote: "*Wink* PSPMSX: MSX Emulator for PSP v1.0.8 (ultimate)." We really quote - the wink smiley was there. Does "ultimate" mean that Zx's MSX emulator doesn't get better than this? (It just did: check the *Update!* above)

And dang, hasn't Zx been a busy little bee lately. With all of his homebrew emulator releases, like boom, boom, BOOM!, and now this BOOM. But it doesn't end here, because there's one more boom to cover before Zx takes a well-deserved rest. But before we get there, the deets on v1.0.8 (ultimate), and then the download and discuss links:
  • Add option to enable the sound and musix chips (FM-AM and Music modules) required by several games. It's slow down the emulator, so use it with care.
  • Add a new render mode (max) to fit the entire MSX screen
  • Add missing MSX keys (thanks to Creepy)
  • Fix 3.10-OE black screen bug in smooth mode (thanks to Creepy for his feedback)

wtf ??

SD Snatcher in english works fine for me ... Zx

Zx listen please!

Snatcher and SD snatcher are two different games! one is action/adv while the other one is an RPG(SD snatcher).Only the english version of SD works while the english translated Snatcher doesnt! I remember correctly, "fMSX v0.62b+" is the only MSX emulator version that actually plays Snatcher but its slow so i would love to see it be played with Zxrecent version too!!! Please fix this issue Zx for your newxt release!!MSX aint nothing w/out the original snatcher!!thanx

I can load MSX1 files, but not MSX2

they are zips which contain a .msx2 file and it gives me an error when I try to load them with the emu set to MSX2 or MSX2+. Any ideas? TIA, S*****

I LOVE YOU STILL!

First of all, You can do anything w/ emulators its amazing. 2ND could you possibly revise the Nes/Sega genesis emulators they need some of your brilliance rubbed off on them.

.mx1

You should rename the file.mx1 to file.rom and it should work properly. Only .rom extention is supported, Zx

RE... can load MSX1 files, but not MSX2 (BUT!)

You said in your README that it supports .MSX2 files. Do I really have to rename them all to .rom? from the readme... 4. LOADING MSX ROM FILES ------------ If you want to load rom image in your emulator, you have to put your rom file (with .zip, .rom, .mx1 or .mx2 file extension) on your PSP memory stick in the 'roms' directory. Then, while inside PSPMSX emulator, just press SELECT to enter in the emulator main menu, and then using the file selector choose one rom file to load in your emulator.
