I have sounds with SG1000 ROM's but no screen display, it is just black?
@Louthrax: Can you please point me to these sites with concatenated DSKs ready for SofaRUN?
I have searched them without any luck.
Very nice! Currently my playsoniq is in repair as it was broken ...I love to test this new sega feature!... I was reading about the pause SMS button. Is it also possible to define a keyboard key for this? There are some SMS games, like Alex the Kid, which you need for game options... this would be a very cool feature to have!

It's not necessary to concatenate disks to use multiple disks with SofaRun.
@sd_snatcher: According to Luothrax himself, it is.
What alternatives do I have to play Xak, Ys3, etc?
Hi Louthrax.
I miss the blue couch, but nice to see a new version
I'm having some trouble getting a few games to run in Sofarunit:
Magnar (1992) (Parallax)
-Gives error message at start up: "Boot Error, not enough memory for BASIC variablese"
La'Valeur (1989) (Kogado) - both japanese and english version
-Won't start, just gives blank screen
Ginga Eiyuudensetsu II Space War Simulation (1990) (Bothtec)
-Same as La'Valeur, blank screen
For the Day II (1990) (Mirinae Soft)
-This one starts but when trying to proceed for the intro scene the game freezes with a a sudden sound.
I tried some basic changes as turning Write enable disk on and off with no success. I managed to start these games in Bluemsx or as written on a real floppy. Versions of dsks I'm using is mostly from TOSEC or File-Hunter archive.
I'm unsing a Philips NMS 8250 with Carnivore 2, btw.
Gaula82 - You can merge the dsk files easily yourself.
Do the following.
1. Place the dsk files in a folder close to root on your hard drive - let saty C:\copyfolder\
2. Rename the dskfiles with number so they will be easier to manage
- like xak1.dsk and xak2.dsk etc or just 1.dsk, 2.dsk etc
3. open cmdcommand and write C: then "cd copyfolder".
4. write "copy /b xak1.dsk+xak2.dsk+xak3.dsk xakmerg.dsk"
The 3 dsk files wiill now be merged to one file named xakmerg.dsk
Hi there, MSX gangs.
I am using HB-F1XDJ + CARNIVORE2.
Well, I just install SOFARUN 7 (copied unzipped sofarun folder to SD card) and start it. I can see the opening picture then nothing displaying. I push the [RETURN] key then SOFARUN started unzipping a file that I can see on the monitor. So SOFARUN definitely runs on my MSX.
Now, what can I do? or what do I need to change settings? Could you PLEASE help me? Thank you.
Anybody help me please
