Long live the classics! Been great keeping an eye on this project and playing a few old classics :) --djdynamite123 12:26, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Adding games

Works perfect graphics and sound wise for everything I've tried, but it's way too user unfriendly in regards to adding new games. Any chances of, at least, supporting long filenames with spaces inbetween?--ICEknigh7 17:24, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

-- A guide will be created for adding new games, check our website for guides. -- Long file names with spaces are supported, just put double quotes around them, for an example see /MSX/Games/MSX1Demos/gamelist.xml TheLizard 14:12, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Any chance of adding ColecoVision support? Unhuman 03:19, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Control lag

While playing games that require quick button presses (Aleste, Quarth), I've noticed some significant lag in the controls, to the point that the ship in Quarth would start shooting after I had pressed the Fire button twice, making the game harder to control.
Is this some issue that may be fixed in the future, or must we just get used to it?--ICEknigh7 18:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

-- We did not notice lag, New flat tv screens do some adjustments to the signal while introducing lag, please verify that that kind of behaviour is disabled. If you really believe the lag is caused by the application, send us an email. (bugs@wiimsx.com) TheLizard 08:42, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't other emulators show the same lag if that was the TV's fault, though?--ICEknigh7 23:08, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

No 60Hz in PAL systems

I've just tried changing the speed option in the configuration file from 50 to 60, and the games seem to keep switching to 50Hz mode whenever they're run. I'd love to play the non-European games in 60Hz, as they were designed for that speed.
A speed selector in the menu, or even a command line to specify each game's speed would come in handy here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ICEknigh7 (talk • contribs) 22:41, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

-- I doubt this setting controls the 50/60 Hz setting, from the repository: Added 50/60hz support GUI uses Wii setting and emulated MSX uses VDP setting which makes the emulation as close to the real thing as possible.

note from developer: I decided to always reset the properties of the emulator. This means that bluemsx.ini is generated, but never used again. This is because every game has it's own settings, so it is not a good idea to use one ini file for all games. TheLizard 08:38, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Doesn't Work?

When I start it up, it says "please wait" and then a large, flashing blue rectangle appears, and nothing else. I'm guessing some sort of menu is supposed to appear here?--Namo 13:46, 24 August 2009 (UTC) -- please send us an email (info@wiimsx.com) TheLizard 16:16, 28 August 2009 (UTC) Ah, never mind, the new version works perfectly! Great job!--Namo 14:46, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Screenshot function freezes

Attempting to take a screenshot results in BlueMSX-Wii freezing. I have a "Screenshots" subfolder in the same folder as the games I play, but that doesn't appear to solve the problem. SMR Kurosan 23:46, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
