on a GameGear you could preload the TMS palette (a closer version of it)

in fact you SHOULD do that or everything will just be likely black / wrong

msx45 wrote

Yes on emulator you can change palette
On the MEKA emulator, it automatically corrects the palette

On real MASTER SYSTEM you can't do nothing....
Maybe with an electronic RGB amplifier box we can correct the colors

Maybe i did not clear in my question: Is possible change the pallete in emulicious and after make a hack or a patch (ips) fixing the colors?

Thank you very much

Two other MSX1 MEGAROMS

KINGS VALLEY 2 and The Fairyland Story

You just made my dream come true. I've always wanted to run The Fairyland Story on the SMS. Thank you.

I don't think anyone has done this, or maybe one has, but I converted Knightmare 3.

what mapper did you use?

I tried all of them and couldn't get it to work!

It was just the regular Konami 8K mapper.

Interesting, you used the msx2sms.exe that I uploaded, yes?

Using that mapper my output is this:

Oh yeah, also, if you don't get the game running and keep going back to the MSX screen, I did a little something to the beginning since it uses the Stack Error system hook.

H.STKE:
rst 030h    ; Inter-slot call
db 1    ; Slot number of the ROM
dw ROM_Exe    ; Address to execute the ROM with disks support

Put this hook back to its original state once the ROM has been executed thanks to this hook."

JK, but kuddos to you if you can do it.

Can I ask you to do Salamander, Nemesis 3 and R-Type like that?

Ok, @Stokes this hook is added in MSX rom before of execute msx2sms.exe of after the rom converted (sms file)? You could make a small tutorial, showing where put the hook? I almost converted 1942 to sms.

I almost got it running too, but it messed up. Oh yeah, also it can be seen on some ROMs that they have this type of start. Take a look at Eggerland Mystery 1.

I asked the person who made the converter to fix the ASCII 16 mapper. So we can now play with games that have 4 different types of mappers.

There are 3 MSX1 MEGAROM games left which only uses 8Kb of RAM (so OK for the MASTER SYSTEM)

F1 SPIRIT = crashes after menu selection
EGGERLAND MYSTERY 2 = joystick controls not working
1942 (MSX1 version) = not working

1942 (MSX1 version) with only 8KB of RAM on MSX1 has some small graphical bugs
With 16kb of RAM no more graphical bugs....

There are several versions of these MEGAROMS (see attachments)

I put the version of EGGERLAND2 with the joystick problem (see attachments)

If somenone could do this conversions, that would be great.

Very good work !!!!

There is still F1 SPIRIT to do
Can you make conversion of F1 SPIRIT ?

With F1 SPIRIT we will reach perfect set of MSX1 MEGAROMS (8Ko RAM)

This is really excellent work, I am quite impressed! You are turning a Game Gear into a great portable Zemmix, or nearly so :)

Though the level of complexity is similar to a DahJee-to-SMS conversion, it may be possible to make games that require more RAM work too, by activating SRAM. It will likely require more address surgery/relocation work, though

Cannot execute a BASIC ROM? In what way is this a basic game? That's pretty unfortunate.

Completely correct! I verified in Emulicious > System and was MSX enabled. The Rom is running fine now. I like in use Emulicious because it is close the real hardware.
Congratulations @Stokes. God bless you.

Haha! What a funny mishap! That is true tho since I see it detects the ROM in its initiation. The converted one would say 0! Glad to see you're having fun with the conversion. And you're always welcome. :-)

There is a clone of PENGO on MSX1

it's called ICE

I attach the ROMs

ICE need 64Ko of RAM

So we can forget this conversion

After you can converted it for our SMS. Thanks

I did Dungeon Hunter, but it seems to me that it might use 16kB of RAM since I got the title and the player screen to work without any glitches, and the game when started doesn't play out.

Strange considering that it already converted for SMS. So i guessed that only was necessary apply the translation patch and reconvert it for SMS. Thanks for your effort anyway.

Updates from Révo:
MSX2SMS Everdrive MEGAPAK v1.1 SEGA Master System
and MSX to SEGA Master System & Game Gear MSX2SMS/GG Hack v1.4

I'm bored. Is there any ideas for MSX games we should convert? I'm thinking about doing "Oh Sh*t!" as I will not be using any BIOS for this and converting it manually.

Well, i dont know if this is correct thread for my opinion. What about convert colecovision games? Some games are cool. Which are the difficulties ? and which is the feasibility? In scale 0-10 what number is the portability for our sms?

Here the Cbios I'm using, fixed by Calindro and with the 2 patch presented before applied.

This is great, Revo!

Using this and a mapper conversion patch I was able to get Super Pierrot working

To try it yourself, first apply the mapper conversion patch to the MSX ROM, then prepend the SMS CBIOS to that

(some sounds are still missing and there may be a gameplay bug with sprite collision detection, I'm not sure yet; I wasn't able to reproduce the collision bug on the Pocket so it might be an emulator bug)

MSX ROM this patch applies to:

I have to try this out! Thanks for finally porting this to the SMS bsittler!

I have a question. Going back to when this forum first started, I was looking back on how there were suggestions of how to get 16kB RAM games to work on the SMS. You think it could be possible?

Stokes wrote

It will probably require a custom mapper that adds the extra RAM. Maybe a custom BIOS, too.

although the location in address space is different (so some patching will likely be needed) you can make use of the Sega mapper's SRAM for this too (though only if it is OK to page the RAM in and out, or if the ROM doesn't use that page)

also IIRC the DahJee and Jumbo adapters for playing MSX1 game conversions in Taiwanese SG-1000 (Aaronix) consoles did this sort of thing

also IIRC at least one SG-1000/Mark III game from Japan has RAM in the cartridge for a similar reason (The Castle)

So I was wondering what the progress was, and if it was possible that we may have ported msx game to the sms

Dropping new release: Time Pilot converted from MSX with my custom BIOS.

Tested on: Emulicious, SG-1000

Enjoy.

Thank you for Time Pilot! Do you think Hunch Back can also be converted? You would need to use the rom file as source, not the dsk or cas file.

The rom file can be found using Google with the search query "/Games/ROM Conversions/Tape Converted to ROM/Ocean Software (UK)/".

You mean on File Hunter's website? It might not be possible because of the RAM it takes up, but I believe it might work with some changes.

Is Coaster Race possible?

This game's RAM is 16kB, SMS is only 8kB. MSX and Sega SF-7000 though do use 64kB of RAM, so it mostly works on the SF-7000 using BlueMSX.

Mashou no Yakata Gabalin Is a game for the 80s movie house. has anyone tried to convert this? it looks pretty good and faithful to movie lol

how do i use the tools to convert msx 2 sms? is there a link on how to do this anywhere?

It worked with Fusion properly. Screenshot below. ????? Cannot execute a BASIC ROM? In what way is this a basic game? That's pretty unfortunate.

It looks like you are emulating an MSX and trying to run the converted ROM on it.

Quote It looks like you are emulating an MSX and trying to run the converted ROM on it. Completely correct! I verified in Emulicious > System and was MSX enabled. The Rom is running fine now. I like in use Emulicious because it is close the real hardware. Congratulations @Stokes. God bless you.

God bless you. Haha! What a funny mishap! That is true tho since I see it detects the ROM in its initiation. The converted one would say 0! Glad to see you're having fun with the conversion. And you're always welcome. :-)

	I did Dungeon Hunter, but it seems to me that it might use 16kB of RAM since I got the title and the player screen to work without any glitches, and the game when started doesn't play out. Dungeon Hunter.zip (88.08 KB)

So i guessed that only was necessary apply the translation patch and reconvert it for SMS. Thanks for your effort anyway.

	I'm bored. Is there any ideas for MSX games we should convert? I'm thinking about doing "Oh Sh*t!" as I will not be using any BIOS for this and converting it manually.

What about convert colecovision games? Some games are cool. Which are the difficulties ? and which is the feasibility? In scale 0-10 what number is the portability for our sms?

	I have a question. Going back to when this forum first started, I was looking back on how there were suggestions of how to get 16kB RAM games to work on the SMS. You think it could be possible?

It will probably require a custom mapper that adds the extra RAM. Maybe a custom BIOS, too. although the location in address space is different (so some patching will likely be needed) you can make use of the Sega mapper's SRAM for this too (though only if it is OK to page the RAM in and out, or if the ROM doesn't use that page) also IIRC the DahJee and Jumbo adapters for playing MSX1 game conversions in Taiwanese SG-1000 (Aaronix) consoles did this sort of thing also IIRC at least one SG-1000/Mark III game from Japan has RAM in the cartridge for a similar reason (The Castle)

It might not be possible because of the RAM it takes up, but I believe it might work with some changes.
