Useful patches for the PC-FX BIOS
First, it is important to be aware that the PC-FX BIOS did NOT remain consistent across the lifetime of the system; there are at least two versions of the BIOS.
The more common version of the BIOS was found on most PC-FX consoles built before late 1995, and is the likely version which people use on emulators.
As such, you will need to check in the list below whether the patch is intended for a specifc BIOS version.
| Filename | Compatibility | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fxbios_shortintro.ips | both | Disables startup splash screen and reduces boot time in half (for developers) |
| fxbios_english.ips | both | Partial translation - main menu only (roughly 20% of the full BIOS) |
| fxbios_autolaunch.ips | both | launches the CD right after the intro |
