Re: MAME Emulation

I know that there is a chance you will be adding support for the the V9958 on the Dragons (using the Wordpak2+ module) Once we have the MPI, we could install the FDC, WP2+ and PSG to get a powerful Dragon-MSX2+ computer. The Wordpak2+ is already in my development build, but not quite ready for rele...

I am not in a hurry!
I can wait as much as needed.

Re: MAME Emulation

just to verify everything is ok, I converted a binary file to a cas file and loaded it

Good job!

Re: MAME Emulation

as an intermediate solution ...
Would it be possible to enable Becker port in MAME so that it can communicate
with a Drivewire server that runs in the same PC? Maybe it is already possible ...

TCPServerPort 65504
