Module for SimCoupe (MGT Sam Coupe emulator)

[craiganderson]

Somebody asked me to make this module because apparently MESS does not load all games. This is what I am told. I have not tested MESS.

I tested this module (for SimCoupe) with one .dsk game, one .sad game, one .sdf game and it worked with all three.

There is no associated .isd file.

The BEZEL function has been added and works on my system. (FYI)

Read the notes in the module to see how to set FULLSCREEN.

I did not test it with zipped games. (FYI)

MEmu = SimCoupe
MEmuV =  v1.0
MURL = http://www.simcoupe.org/download/
MAuthor = craiganderson
MVersion = 1.0
MCRC = 
iCRC =
MID = 
MSystem = "MGT Sam Coupe"
;----------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Notes:
; To set fullscreen ON, open the emulator, click "View", and then check "Fullscreen AND THEN YOU MUST exit the emulator by hitting CTRL+F12. The emulator will remember it's fullscreen status if you exit with CTRL+F12. If you exit via the TASK MANAGER it will not remember its FullScreen status. (FYI: F8 toggles between fullscreen and windowed).

Thank you Craig, as always a great job!

Great job Craig. One question regarding the roms, Prince of Persia is both a .DSK and .SDF file extension in the set of games available from TOSEC. Is there a preferred game extension between the three of them? Also it does work with zipped games.

i have no idea about preferred roms

the first time i ever played with this system was the little module i posted

as far as zipped roms, yes it should work

As a MSX fan, I'm specially interested in your MSX themes. They look good. I'll give them a try.
