MSX keyboard controls help

[nawaf]

I have a weird issue with keyboard controls for MSX games, the directional buttons, space button, and F1 buttons work, all the rest of the buttons on the keyboard don’t work! How do i set it up? please help.

Using Retropie 3 Beta 4 on Raspberry Pi 2

lr-fmsx or ? try bluemsx – I believe fmsx has some limitations with control input.

Ya i think fmsx, the one that comes default with the retropie image. Do i have to install bluemsx? is there a guide for that? sorry i’m a noob at this.

Yeah I made a quick video on how/where to install new emulators:

In the video I think its in experimental but it was just moved to the stable emulators. Its called lr-bluemsx.

THANKS! i tried Bluemsx and it’s working with keyboard and joypad, but i encountered another problem.. it changed the keyboard button layout and i lost the pause button (F1), some games use that button as a menu, how can i activate this button?

Strange, I still have the same problem on RetroPie 3.0 Final with lr-bluemsx: none of the F1-F12 functionkeys, numeric keys or letter keys are working. THis is annoying as some games require pressing the F1 or 1 key to start.

lr-fmsx gives me the same problem. My keyboard only works in OpenMSX.

Hi,
I use the latest retropie 3 image and bluemsx and my keyboard is not working at all…
