About
MESS is a source-available project which documents the hardware for a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles, and calculators through software emulation, as MAME does for arcade games.
Configuration
The Color Computer runs several different types of media: cartridges (then marketed as "ROMPaks" or "ROM Paks"), cassettes, and binary files on floppy disks to name a few. It is advisable to make a list for each type of media, as each one in emulated form has a different file extension (although it may be possible to use a bash script loader that automatically picks the correct device).
For the sake of brevity, only coco configurations are listed. "coco2" and "coco3" can easily be substituted in place of "coco" to emulate the respective machines.
| Platform | Version | Device | Exec | Type | commandline_format |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Linux | 0.137+ | Cartridge ROM (ccc, rom) | /usr/games/mess | D | coco -cart "[rompath]/cart/[name].[romext]" |
| Linux | 0.137+ | Cassette file (cas, wav) | /usr/games/mess | D | coco -cass "[rompath]/cass/[name].[romext]" |
| Linux | 0.137+ | Binary file (bin) | /usr/games/mess | D | coco -quik "[rompath]/bin/[name].[romext]" [1] |
- ↑ The Quickload (quik) device is not supported in all versions of MESS for the coco, coco2, and coco3 driver. It exists in 0.141, but does not exist in 0.144.
