For a very basic driver, we need to add one file (the actual driver) and modify two files, so that MESS knows about your driver. Creating the driver As an example, we'll create a driver for the hypothetical system “MX-1290” from Epson. Create a new file in mess/drivers and name it mx1290.c.

The first part can be found here (Install System 6) and here (Install Mac OS 7) is the third part. Prerequisites You will need some file prior to get into this tutorial Working installation of Mess Minimum Recommended Version is Revision 9050 (Some revisions after the 0139u2 milestone) text/html 2010-09-09T12:24:24+02:00 http://mess.redump.net/howto:install_mac_system_6?rev=1284027864&do=diff This is the first part of several mac related tutorials. The others can be found here (Create Large Mac Drives) and here (Install Mac OS 7) but you need to follow this one prior to the others.

We have all these wonderful ADDRESS_MAP, MACHINE_RESET, VIDEO_START, DEVICE_INIT, etc. structures and functions we can use. The key to implementing the things properly is understanding the MESS driver lifecycle; knowing when what is created and/or available when a driver is started or reset (soft or hard reset). text/html 2008-09-06T19:45:18+02:00 http://mess.redump.net/howto:sdlmame_sdlmess_framebuffer?rev=1220723118&do=diff Since I tend to forget things once they are solved I decided to write a short primer on how to run sdlmame on a hardware accelerated framebuffer device supporting YUV-overlays. This is really not a trivial task and this document only covers the last steps in detail. text/html 2008-05-18T12:14:51+02:00 http://mess.redump.net/howto:setup_eclipse_for_mess?rev=1211105691&do=diff This guide will teach you how to setup the Eclipse IDE to work with MESS, including Subversion and Bugzilla integration. You might find the linked guide in the Weblinks section useful if you have used Visual Studio before. Subversive Installation First, we need to get the Eclipse SDK. Go to the Eclipse download page and get the 3.3.2 stable version. text/html 2008-05-02T09:43:39+02:00 http://mess.redump.net/howto:upload_screenshots?rev=1209714219&do=diff * Click “Edit page” on the top left side of the page (use this page for example, it doesn't matter) * Click on the button with the picture, the media manager will now popup * If there are already screenshots for this driver, select the namespace on the left side. In our example this would be “mess -> drivers -> sms -> smspal”. If there are no pictures yet, select the parent driver “mess -> drivers -> sms”. * If there are no previous screenshots, add your image and enter the namespace name…
