New Features
Version 3.3.1 (June 17, 2007)
Virtual keyboard improvements. The virtual keyboard now requires an external file - 'msx.lyt' in the emulator directory—the file contains keyboard layout information
fMSX updated to version 3.3. Note that pre-3.3 version save states will no longer load
Lots of minor bug fixes
Installation

Unzip fmsxpsp.zip into /PSP/GAME/ folder on the memory stick. This should create the following directory tree:
PSP/
GAME/
FMSXPSP/
CONF/ (key configuration)
ROMS/ (game roms and disk images)
SCREENS/ (screenshots)
STATES/ (save states)
MSX.LYT (virtual keyboard layout)
SYSTEM.ZIP (System ROM's)
[any other files]
FMSXPSP%/
EBOOT.PBP

Please note that system ROM's must reside in the same folder as EBOOT.PBP file. Game ROM's and disk images (DSK files) may reside anywhere (the ROMS subdirectory is recommended, but not necessary).

fMSX-PSP supports cartridge and disk loading from ZIP files. System ROM's may reside in a SYSTEM.ZIP file in the same folder as EBOOT.PBP. PAINTER.ROM, or MSXDOS2.ROM may also be zipped, but must reside in separate ZIP files (FMPAC.ZIP, MSXDOS2.ZIP, etc..). fMSX-PSP will attempt to load the three automatically if free cartridge slots are available. All other game ROM files must reside in separate ZIP files.
Controls

fMSX-PSP currently "ships" with the following default key mappings:
During emulation:
Analog stick - Joystick up/down/left/right
Directional pad - Keyboard up/down/left/right
[ ] (square) - Joystick button A
X (cross) - Joystick button B
O (circle) - Spacebar
R - Displays the virtual keyboard, for as long as the button is held
L + R - Return to fMSX-PSP menu
Select + L - Selects previous disk volume (for multi-volume disk sets)
Select + R - Selects next disk volume (for multi-volume disk sets)
Start - F1

Keyboard mappings can be modified for each game. By default, button configuration changes are not retained after a mapping is modified. To save changes, press O (circle) after desired mapping is configured. To set the mapping as the default mapping, press [ ] (square) - to load the default mapping press ^ (triangle).
Multi-Volume Disk Images

fMSX-PSP can load multi-volume games (like Snatcher) from a single ZIP file. To load such a game, store all files in the same ZIP. It is important that the archived files are numbered 1-0, with '0' representing the 10th volume (archiving sequence is not important) - fMSX-PSP will attempt to load the first disk in the sequence. Here's an example:
snatcherj.zip
thsnatj1.dsk
thsnatj2.dsk
thsnatj3.dsk

To switch disks mid-game, map any of the buttons to the 'Special: Previous volume' or 'Special: Next volume' actions in the control menu. When a 'volume switch' button is pressed, and the next disk image in the sequence is found, an icon will appear with the number of the volume loaded.

Note that multi-volume files do not have to be ZIP-compressed for the 'volume switch' feature to work - volume switching will also work for uncompressed DSK files, as long as they're named as described above.
Virtual Keyboard

When the virtual keyboard is on:
Directional-pad - navigates the keyboard buttons
[ ] (square) - presses a virtual button
O (circle) - 'sticks' a sticky virtual button
^ (triangle) - unsticks any sticky virtual buttons

Certain virtual buttons (specifically, SHIFT, CTRL and GRAPH) are "sticky" - the virtual button remains held down when O (circle) is tapped. Tapping O (circle) again releases the virtual button. This allows SHIFT, CTRL and GRAPH all to be held down at the same time, while the user presses another virtual button. To unstick all sticky buttons, press ^ (triangle).
Optimization

For all MSX1 games and most MSX2 games, 300 MHz clockspeed achieves near-flawless rendering. Some larger games (like Metal Gear 2) are slower when VSync is enabled - those work better without VSync, or at 333 MHz. Note that anything above 222 MHz will deplete your PSP battery faster.
Troubleshooting
State loading errors
fMSX-PSP may refuse to load a save state due to a number of different reasons. Some of the reasons follow:
fMSX save state format has changed
Currently set RAM/VRAM sizes do not match with RAM/VRAM settings set when the state was saved. This can be rectified by resetting RAM/VRAM sizes and loading again
System model (MSX1/2/2+) currently set does not match the system model set when the state was saved. Reset the setting and try again
System ROM's currently in use do not match to those used when the state was saved. Replace the system ROM's and try again
Any combination of the above
Compiling

Source code for fMSX-PSP is now only available via a Subversion (SVN) repository. To check out a particular version, run

svn co http://svn.akop.org/fmsx/tags/version

where version is the version of fMSX (3.1.3, etc...). Note that for this to work, you need to have Subversion installed.
To compile fMSX-PSP, install zlib and libpng.
To enable the alternate sound engines, #define MSXAUDIO and MSXMUSIC.
To enable transparent zipped ROM support, #define MINIZIP. Additional #define's are described in fMSX.
Version History
Version 3.2.1 (June 4, 2007)
Added menu navigation options - select from US PSP navigation (X confirms, O cancels) or Japanese PSP navigation (O confirms, X cancels—also used by most homebrew emulators)
Added RAM/VRAM adjustment options
Added HBlank/VBlank period selection (PAL/NTSC)
Added MSX model selection (MSX1, MSX2, MSX2+)
Improved accuracy of frames-per-second counter
User interface improvements
fMSX updated to version 3.2
Rendering speed increase, switched to 15bit color
Various bug fixes
Version 3.1.3 (May 5, 2007)
Support for multi-volume disk images - multiple disk images per ZIP file and in-game volume switching (see section below)
Improved virtual keyboard navigation, speed increase
System ROM's can now be stored in a single ZIP file (see Installation section)
Integrated zipped ROM and DSK file support (fast loading from ZIP files)
Added PSG/SCC/MSXMUSIC sound emulation engine by Mitsutaka Okazaki and MSXAUDIO engine by Tatsuyuki Satoh. The old engine is still available, as it is noticeably faster. MSXMUSIC and MSXAUDIO are disabled by default (recompile if you really need them), as they adversely affect emulation speed
~18% gain in rendering speed
FPS counter
PAL frequency (50Hz) timing
Various small improvements and bugfixes
Version 3.1.2 (Apr. 24, 2007)
Added support for cartridge type selection in the System menu. This adds support for games like Zanac Ex, which are not detected correctly
Preliminary ZIP file support. Emulator will load ROM or DSK files from a ZIP file, provided there's only a single compressed file per ZIP. System ROM's must still be uncompressed (or GZIP compressed)
GZip file support - emulator can load cartridges and disk images from gzip compressed files. Save states are also much smaller in size
GUI changes, wording changes
Version 3.1.1 (Apr. 20, 2007; initial release)
Three available rendering modes: normal size, 4:3 scaled, 16:9 scaled
State loading/saving, with a thumbnail icon for each state (up to 10 states per game)
Controls configurable for a particular game
Frame limiter, frame skipping, vertical sync, PSP clock frequency adjustment
Support for two cart slots and two disk drives
On-screen virtual keyboard

fMSX-PSP would not be possible without prior work of many other PSP hackers. I have benefitted from the source code of the following PSP programs:
fMSX-SDL by Vincent van Dam
PSPMSX by zx81
NesterJ by Ruka
Snes9XTYL by YoyoFR, Thunder, Laxer
[CPS1|CPS2|MVS]PSP by NJ
PSPSDK examples

Some personal thanks are due to the authors of SNES9XTYL, DGEN for PSP and [CPSx|MVS]PSP emulators - the hard work evident in the polished interfaces of the emulators is inspiring, if nothing else. fMSX-PSP was an attempt to bring a similar interface to MSX emulation (whether it's achieved that or not is anyone's guess

Special thanks are also due to jburton of dcemu.co.uk forums for all his helpful feedback.
