A new fMSX update today, with an important change:
fMSX will no longer show you ads and require you to click on them. Instead, it will show the Android Market page offering to buy one of my other apps. This promotion will disappear once you buy at least one app.
Free version:

Also, if you have a suggestion on a new feature to add, do not hesitate to post it in this thread. Cannot promise implementing them all, but will try to add at least the most popular ones.
Hi fms
I tried to install it on an andriod tablet, but it didn't want to install it, the brand is Arnova.
Is there a certain system requirement or so that is needed on android to run it?
I have no idea what "didn't want to install it" means, but if fMSX simply does not show up on the Android Market, it usually means that you have got one of these cheap not-quite-market-compatible devices. Check previous posts in this thread (especially cax's post) for instructions on how to coerce the Market to recognize your device.
More forum trouble: it posted my last comment twice, and there is no way for the author to remove his/her own comment. I can only edit it, which is what I am doing now
It means : i went to download it and it said it wasnt a valid app or so.
Probably the device is sh!t lol its mu girlfriends device and i wanted to see if it'll work
Sounds exactly like a problem cax has described. The same hack should probably fix it for you.

I have my tablet fully rooted now (ICS rom), with a modified market and all (tried market enabler too, and it works for other apps), but I still can't get fmsx or any of the other Garage Research emulators from the market. They simply won't show up, while lots of other apps that did not show before now do. Even when I find it in my app history (it did install on my Desire HD), it won't install on the tablet, stating it's incompatible.
It could still be a build.prop setting, but I'm a bit at a loss here. Cax, could you perhaps list (part of) your build.prop?
