I do not know if Mess simply cannot do it yet or maybe I screwed something up. In theory games with more than 2 disks should be loadable but at this moment in time I have not had luck. In here you will need to enter the following: 圆8000 -flop1%romfile% -flop2 'path to disk image #2' Just for example my Akumajou Dracula entry has: 圆8000 -flop1%romfile% -flop2 'H: Emulation Roms X68000 Akumajou Dracula (1993)(Konami)(Disk 2 of 2).dim' When you load a game you should first see a screen with Drv0: through Drv3: down the left hand side.This is showing what disks are active at that moment. Go to the Emulation tab and at the bottom you need to enable 'Use Custom Command-Line Parameters:'. Import the first disk of a multi-disk game like any other rom but after it has been imported you need to edit the game. With a bit more work on this maybe the rest of this process can be more automated but for now this is all we have which is better than before. Jason recently gave us the%romfile% variable and the ability to pass more commands after it and it comes in handy for this situation. For multi-disk games things get a bit more complicated and requires some hands on work. Then add the X68000 as a platform associated with the emulator and add the following command switch: 圆8000 -flop1 For all your single disk games this is all you will need, just import your.dim image files and they should now load when launched from Launchbox. In Launchbox you will need to set up Mess as an emulator like any other emulator.
DRACULA X68000 EMULATOR HOW TO
This next step I assume you know how to do and if you do not then I suggest watching Brads tutorial videos. There are hard drive images out there but I have not had any luck running them through Mess and have not tried in any of the stand alone emulators. there is also a second folder with all the doujin/homebrew hdf releases. games included are strider,castlevania (akouma jo dracula),super streetfighter 2,real bout fatal fury and so on.
DRACULA X68000 EMULATOR FULL
Next you will need your game files and the file type I have had luck with so far is the file type.dim, these are disk images. this is a just a heads up to let people know that i have posted the full hdf set for the sharp 圆8000 computer. Place this file in the /roms folder within your Mess installation folder.

What I can tell you though is the name of the file I have which is 圆8000.zip and it is 649 KB (665,329 bytes) in size. So we tried to make it so that the in-game refresh rate would speed up depending on the machine’s power. To start off you will need bios files which of course I cannot help you find so you are on your own for those. Also, Akumajou Dracula 圆8000 is intended to not slow down much on a 10MHz machine, but then the X68030 came out, and the XVI and ’30 are 25MHz.
DRACULA X68000 EMULATOR INSTALL
I don't like to clutter up my Mame install with all the extra stuff needed to do for Mess as well.

I use a separate Mess install for oddball and quirky systems such as the X68000 instead of Mame just because I like to keep things separated and clean. Yes you could do this through Mame and other stand alone X68000 specific emulators but I found Mess the easier method. This tutorial is for getting the Sharp X68000 emulated using the MESS emulator.
