Hi can anybody tell me how I can get fmsxDS to play my Metal Gear 2 translated rom?

I downloaded the emulator and it has a Japanese readme.  I think it has supercard support because there is a fmsxDS_SC.nds file along with the fmsxDS.nds file.

I can't find any instructions on the web after an hour on google.  A link to the emulator is here http://nintendo-ds.dcemu.co.uk/fmsxds.shtml

but the msx emulator boot in your SC? if do not, try to put the ndsloader.bin into it.

You need the msx bios roms. get here:

MSX2.ROM

MSX2EXT.ROM

Put these bios roms in your CF or SD root (the msx emulator can be put in any another folder), and create a folder for your commercial roms (try to separate the disks from catridges and tapes)

If you boot succefuly the emulator, you now only load the metal gear 2 and click in power button.

finished

Thats interesting... I got it to work before I read your post by putting all the files on my CF card.  When I booted the fmsxDS_SC.nds the MSX emulator booted and it had a ROM slot 1 along with other things on the bottom screen.  Inside the ROM slot 1 was my Metal Gear 2 rom along with the various MSX.ROM and MSX2.ROM files that I put on my CF card.  I selected the Metal Gear 2 file clicked the powere button and it worked!

Are you telling me that I can put these files into different folders on my CF card and make it boot right to the Metal Gear game?

Thanks for your help

yeah, you get it. but the msx2.rom and the msx2ext.rom must be in the root of your CF/SD card. it's a little dumb, but do not work in another way
