machine configurations
blueMSX now support external rom / dsk / cas database and a cheat database which will be updated from time to time without waiting for new version of the emulator. The advantage of the external databases is that user are not limited to default data but capable of adding custom roms & new dump. User also have freedom to add/ rename/ delete datas for organizing purpose.
The databases are maintained by Benoit Delvaux , so if you have any questions & suggestion, please contact Benoit!
Rom/dsk/cas database - UPDATED ON 11/11/2012 - This database is now available in one archive. Contains MSX / SVI / Coleco / SG-1000 / SC-3000 / SF-7000 database. (possibly the biggest rom database in MSX!)
Cheat database - UPDATED ON 08/10/2012 - The cheat database includes mainly cheats for MSX games at the moment. There are also some cheats for Coleco, SG-1000 and SVI games.

Hiro has updated his amazing turbo-R theme to v2.5 and now it includes four (!) different themes with turbo-R design as a motif. It comes with a intuitive interface which uses full capability of theme engine.. A must for MSX fan. (Highly recommended!!!)

Works with v2.5 and future version.
DIGIblue v2

v2.2 Theme by
ray0
Our favorite theme DIGIblue v2 is back, an another revival from the past. Actually it was a request from the user who apparently liked this theme. This theme will work with the latest blueMSX theme specification. Also the colours are adapted so it utilize less memory then the previous version. (So it's not just an XML adaptation.)
blueGEAR

Just a joke theme, perhaps useful for slower processor since it's only comes with minimun interface.
machine configurations
This section contains MSX machine configurations that works in blueMSX 1.3.0 or higher. Unzip the machine configuration to the Config subdirectory of where blueMSX is installed. It includes also dump tools to be used on real machines.
C-BIOS is an alternative and freeware BIOS for the MSX system. At the moment, it can only run ROM games.

GR8BIT is an educational project, developed by Eugeny Brychkov, to build an improved generic MSX2(+) computer.

Attention ! If you are collecting all the Machines for blueMSX, it is recommended to not exceeed 255 subdirectories in the Machines directory. A bug has as result that the emulator becomes unstable and must be 'killed' by using the Windows Task Manager. To avoid this problem, we suggest to install blueMSX in 2 different directories and divide in 2 parts the Machines directory (for example : the generic machines + some preferred specific machines for 1st blueMSX, the other specific machines for 2nd blueMSX).

Our friend, user & developer Sam Elsharif has created this nifty launcher called blueMSX Launcher. This is the first dedicated launcher only for blueMSX and it works beautifully. You just need to pre-define a software but once you've have done that, it will be the quickest way to boot up your favorite games and programs. (Setting up the launcher is also very simple & easy!)

Since the beginning of its development, the blueMSX Launcher has seriously evolved into a multilingual utility including many tools such as SHA1 Center, Database Manager, Machine Selection, Import Extra Profile Tool, and more ...


We feel fortunate to be able to introduce and share this application with our users. (thanks Sam & nice work!)
