Uploaded Microsoft MSX2+ Wheels/Videos/XML/Genres


Recommended Posts

Posted

A big thank you to craiganderson for providing the themes and some of the wheels used in this project!

The criteria for this wheel

1. I could find the ROM (commercial, demo, homebrew)

2. I could run the game in BlueMSX

Its 2am and I'm exhausted. I guess I'll get to work on MSX Turbo-R tomorrow.

Thanks for making the database etc.....that's awesome!

I think I like the original main screen background that I sent to you better than the one I changed it to (see video below).

And I REALLY like the background for the default theme that you added!! ..looks great

I like what you did with my wheels (i.e. the little disks etc). (and the ones u replaced with better artwork)

I will upload the videos that I recorded to emumovies when I get a chance as well.

After I sent you the download of my stuff...I started adding some additional artwork to my themes/wheels etc....see below

..............(but i could not find artwork for every game.)

..............and I think I may have added a few more games (SONYC comes to mind...its in video below)

the original thread for msx2+ (http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?36057-Microsoft-MSX2-wheels)

I had cutout the ship from this game: "laydock 2" which I think is appropriate for the main menu theme because I think it is only on msx2+

the background in the main theme was one of the files you sent me. I just used my favorite version. I pivoted the ship in the background to fly in the same direction as the other.

sonyc I couldn't get to run

tetris 2 special edition I couldn't find the rom

also I'm still looking for manbow 2 and bet your life

oh yeah...i think with sonyc i had to try a couple of different roms

ill pm u with it

it works...but before it loads it asks you if u want normal or easy (ie have to enter N or E)

and then it takes a few seconds to load but....it works....just tested it

see my bezel image below

ALSO

anybody know....how to load multiple disks on bluemsx??

i dont know much about multiple disk games on any system....

so i cut out a little hole in my bezel so the "FILE" option of the emulator is clickable and thus i can load a second disk....lol

see second image below....

thank you I saw this page before but missed it. Due to the confusing nature of all of the msx2/2+/turbo games I was going to include most of the games on that link with turbo-r wheel.

I'm currently making a MSX Turbo-R database but it will take awhile.

I downloaded every game from http://541y.free.fr/ (The vast majority I don't know if they are made for msx2/2+ or turbo-r) so Im just putting them in the turbo-r database.

Im sorting through the whole set and keeping only the games that will automatically launch in BlueMSX.

Once that's done I will add all the games from TOSEC set and any Turbo-R translated games.

Posted

After really digging into making an msx databases I realize that msx2/2+/turbo-r libraries must be merge into one huge database. There are 3000 msx2 disks to still go through in the tosec library. I'll just have the wait for the Hyperspin Project database to be released.

I will say that I went through a lot of the msx2 homebrew games and they are awesome! Hopefully a database is released soon and I'll start making msx wheels and videos again

I have an MSX1 XML file for the carts only so far; it's based on the TOSEC rom set / dat files. It does include manufacturer and year, but not genre.

I intend to do so, but I'm currently still testing it, and sorting art files. The naming system is also inconsistent with the new naming rules here, so that's something I need to discuss too.

You can track the progress here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-lZRxtGSs9EMNXlBU7PFULlI_tu3GIY6QCk0EWF5DiU/edit#gid=27618270

If people want, I could make WIP available, but I'm not sure of the status of the FTP site at the moment, nor on how to deal with which artwork can be put where. Some of it comes from the HS FTP, some from EmuMovies, and the rest was gathered from various sources on the internet. I don't think I can put the EmuMovies material on the HS FTP site for example.
