Hey whatsup guys it’s been a while since I did a Launchbox tutorial but with the release and recent update of a new FM Towns emulator I feel now is the right time to do it. Prior to Tsugaru we only had Unz which was renowned for being one of the hardest emulators to add and get working correctly in Launchbox… hell it was even a ball ache to get working as a stand-alone emulator as you had to have virtual drives etc. set up… I did actually start doing a video on the Unz set up and actually wrote a helper program in C# which was almost finished when my good friend Lucas Rainford who is the Emulation king on YouTube told me there was a new FM Towns emulator that is great and doesn’t have the graphical glitches on Shadow of the Best which is a comparison that I’ve been wanting to do for a while…on top of this there is no need for a virtual drive as this emulator mounts the image within the program.
