===== BIOS =====
^ MD5 checksum ^ Share file path ^ Description ^
| ''ec3a01c91f24fbddcbcab0ad301bc9ef'' | ''bios/MSX2.ROM'' for BlueMSX and OpenMSX, and ''bios/MSX/msx2.rom'' for CLK | |

Download the BlueMSX standalone at http://bluemsx.msxblue.com/rel_download/blueMSXv282full.zip

Then extract the "Databases" and "Machines" folders and add them to the ''bios'' folder.

For fMSX these files are required instead:
  * CARTS.SHA
  * CYRILLIC.FNT
  * DISK.ROM
  * FMPAC.ROM
  * FMPAC16.ROM
  * ITALIC.FNT
  * KANJI.ROM
  * MSX.ROM
  * MSX2.ROM
  * MSX2EXT.ROM
  * MSX2P.ROM
  * MSX2PEXT.ROM
  * MSXDOS2.ROM
  * PAINTER.ROM
  * RS232.ROM

===== ROMs =====
Place your MSX2+ ROMs in ''/userdata/roms/msx2+''.

==== Multi-disk games ====
Some MSX2 games require multiple disks to play. This can be handled by RetroArch using a [[:cd_image_formats#multi-disc_games|M3U playlist]]. For example:

<file - test-game.m3u>
test game disk 1.dsk
test game disk 2.dsk
test game disk 3.dsk
</file>

Batocera will automatically hide the extra disk files and only show the M3U playlist as the playable game in EmulationStation.
