Hi all, I'm having some problems trying to run MSX games. I'm using fMSX2x to run the games, and I have an entire collection of games but every time I try to load a game, the MSX logo comes up, and then it goes onto a blue screen with the "MSX BASIC version 2.1" command screen, where using some of the buttons I can write some things such as "colour" and "1". How do I actually run games? I desperately want to play Metal Gear 2 :(.
 
:) I had same problem, many time ago
1) Use only games with extension .ROM
2) Put max 250 games or 255, if you hava more games of 255 have this problem.

Excuse me for my bad english. :)

MG2 uses hi-res screen... and comes as a disk image.
I don't think u'll be able to run it on gp2x

well... at least it shouldn't be playable due to the sceen res issue

I got MGS 2 running while on holiday, but then found out this emulator doesn't have a virtual keyboard, so I can't play it anyway :( .
Use ZX-81's Gp2x-Msx :) It lets you remap keys.

The only thing I don't like about this emulator is that something is wrong with the scaling. If you look closely at the the left side of the screen, there is a thin white line. Kind of annoying but it's a really great emulator.
