ZX Spectrum will work in AM

Emulator section http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?board=8.0

Themes have nothing to do with anything, a theme is just graphics it does not make something work or not work.

At the bottom of the forum you will see the section for emulators you will find the settings in there somewhere.

I would just use a RA core or even MAME, but I have no experience on the speccy on setting it up as I am not anywhere close to that system at the moment.

I will edit this with the link, just incase you cannot find it.

Regards

Mark

They all work the same, if you test the emulator away from AM and decide which is best for you and then just tie it in to AM.

You have purists that like one emulator, you have the who gives a damm as long as the game plays.

It is down to personal taste, some people might like retroarch, others might prefer MAME.

However, AM is just a launcher, it is a front end it will load what ever you want it to load.

I use Fuse core in RetroArch with Attract Mode, and it works fine.
