Yes I would like to know if the emulators for ps2 must be executed from MC or can be loaded from HD. Also to know if the emus can be launched from Inlink remotely. Cheers !!!
currently, the snes emu only have support for reading roms from the cd/dvd drive(the only exception for now is the O2 modchip which has the ability to emulate the cd/dvd drive, so if you have it then you can put the roms on the hdd or even a usb key) ; however the emu itself can be loaded from the hdd, you need a program like launchelf which has the ability to read/launch from cd/dvd/mc/usb/hdd so you can put emus wherever you want;Quote:

Thx, I'll post my advances with emus in PS2. SO, one more question, how do I load the roms or media in the emus ? IS there any procedure ?. Thx again
I think they all have a browser to search for roms, the genesis emu(pgen) has a great browser which supports more than one level of sub directories (and also loads from hdd, cd drive, usb, memory card) but others like snes-station support only cd.Quote:

Beware of some emus that are a bit buggy (especially with hdd support and support for more than one level of subdirectory).
Some also have network support (called host), in that case there is a need to put a romlist.txt file in the directory where the roms are located as well as the emu, all the emus that have this function are in the christmas pack release made by 7not6 here:
