      @Folly Maybe we should have an 'Old Japanese Computer Games Appreciation Thread' ^^

      That makes sense about bluemsx, so you think what hasn't been integrated are the rooms themselves? That would make sense considering the legality of it.

      Good Idea to make a new topic !

      Will try these roms if it will help.

        My R+R worked OOB.
        It's an XDF file.

        Don't know wat that is.

          @Folly Oh. I converted it because the documentation clearly stated lr-px68k only read .dim and .m3u well.
          Good to know it works.
          I'll write up a thread tonight!

            I run my files directly from the Desktop with my own script. So I am not bounded by extensions. If you run it from emulationstation .xdf is not there in /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg . So you have to add that.

            <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/x68000</path>
            <extension>.dim .hdf .hdm .2hd .d88 .m3u .DIM .HDF .HDM .2HD .D88 .M3U</extension>

              @Folly Adding it will make it appear in ES sure, but how could I check to see that the emulator is capable of using those files?

                Well it should run then, i think. :-)

                My file contains also a .hdf .hdm. Tried the .hdf, but it seems like it will also load a floppy. not sure how this works.

                    X68000 definitely works in ES with XDF, I thought it might it not but it was fine on mine.

                      How exactly did you attempt to use the roms?
                      I assume lr-bluemsx would be looking for those roms in a very particular place.

                        Placed them in the BIOS directory together with the others.

                          @Folly I'm assuming that's where bluemsx on your PC looks for those roms?

                            The file I presumed it would be the one, is just an arabic msx type :

                            $ grep -r "SWP.rom"
                            MSX2 - Al Alamiah AX-350/config.ini:0 2 2 4 42 "Machines/MSX2 - Al Alamiah AX-350/AX350SWP.rom" ""
                            MSX2 - Al Alamiah AX-370/config.ini:0 2 2 4 20 "Machines/MSX2 - Al Alamiah AX-370/AX370SWP.rom" ""
                            MSX2 - Arabic/config.ini:0 2 2 4 42 "Machines/Shared Roms/SWP.rom" ""
                            

                            It was a nice try/idea. But I don't think it's the solution.

                              @Folly Should we maybe see about bringing the issue to the attention of the core developers?

                                That would be a good idea.

                                  Sharp X1 is working.
                                  But compilation .2d disks hang in "disk menu", any ideas ?

                                    @Folly I'm not sure what you mean. Could you send a screenshot?

                                        @Folly I think I had that once because the lr core looked for the bios in the wrong place.
                                        If it's not then I honestly don't know!

                                          Others work fine. Perhaps they just don't work then.

                                            .2d files was it? I'll see if I have any.

                                            Edit : Just loaded 177.2d
                                            It's running. Maybe one of your bios is wrong?
