Jump to new posts PSX and Enabling cheats by Rychem @ 05/17/13 05:29 PM

I have a quick question. I am interested in setting up a cheat file for PSX on some of the games that do seem to run. However, the game I want to play (Resident Evil 3) is not in the software list which means I need to revert back to naming the chea

MESSUI is a dead-end technology; it's actively disapproved of by the devs and will likely die when we start integrating the Qt sidepanel. Other frontends offer much greater flexibility with images (and everything else, really).

On a somewhat related note, crazyc, have you taken a look at Filetto in MAME at all? It's on 8088 PC-based hardware and was working before so the problem is probably something simple.

I'd like to convert my scanned carts into something useful for MESSUI and played around with the images folders. But unfortunely there is no option for media artwork and other graphics are limited to one entry. Is there something planned to improve

eta made a note already about it. r22811 Quote:Disks do not work in current MESS (and DIM format has not been converted yet to modern)... So the problem is known and I donīt understand the discussion.

Installing Xenix 8086: 1. Create a chd as above but with "-chs 613,4,17". AFAIK, that is only geometry that will work with the MFM device. 2. Start MESS with an XT or PC driver: ibm5150, ibm5160, pc, pcmda etc (as of right now, the defaul

while I'd be interested to fix this bug if it is indeed softlist related, it's important to stress that DIM format is NOT SUPPORTED by the driver at the moment it needs to be modernized, but it has not been yet

A full back-trace (GDB command 'bt') would be useful, perhaps.
