Wow! This came out of nowhere! Incredible! *Dances*

Can't wait to give this a try! fMSX DC already was good but outdated. This could finally replace it as the best MSX emu for Dreamcast :)

Thanks a lot, LTK! *bows*

100 %, with very nice graphics and excellent sound, but it's a young release

If it's able to play risk daisenryaku without bugs (problem also in Pc-emulators except BlueMSX) it's gonna be worth for that alone :).

You need to check out the translated version of the game, the original version is in japanese, but was fan-translated.

It's a game somewhat similar to Advance wars (but serious - real weapons and the like).

On the other DC Fmsx port, the font is messed up, and the are some other graphic bugs. This is a problem also in some Pc-emulators, probably also because of the translation. BlueMSX seems to play it fine, though.

That's just a personal wish of mine though, if your emulator will play most of the MSX1 stuff that would already be great. I don't think I can provide a compatibility list before DARKGATE does, but I appreciate your effort.;)

BlueMSX seems to play it fine, though.BlueMSX and OpenMSX are the best emulators at this time. Unfortunately they're very demanding. fMSX is a better fit for Dreamcast. The emulation is not as accurate, but it's much faster.

yep, I read somewhere you'd need at least a 400-500 Mhz PC to use them effectivly, so no wonder Fmsx get's ported to most platforms rather than the others.

Maybe for that particular game there could be some hack to make the game run properly ?

Thanks again for your work, LTK :)
