it'd make life so much easier if we had a dat file that we could quickly scan our sets against.

That's a good idea.

Thanks, i would have thought this be an obvious thing though for this type of emulator (multiple ROMs for a single game set). MAME for gp2x has a dat, which is great, just GNGeo and CPS2emu need to have dats released for them to save so much headache about wrong ROMs.

Maybe a dat file will be created for the next stable release, we can only hope smile.gif

Well, some people do happen to be in possession of actual mvs cartridges or neogeo CDs. Some people even own the original circuit boards of the arcades. And essentially, even if the roms are pirated they are backups.

Yep, I actually got one the other day biggrin.gif.

@Above post...

Same here, i've got a 4 slot MVS board and 24 carts for it. Expensive hobby especially if you want first edition carts, but im more than happy with second editions tongue.gif

Just watch out for those bootleg carts, some of them play perfect, but most others are buggy as hell (poorly dumped ROMs) and alot of people cant tell them apart from the originals untill its too late.

EDIT: Forgot to say that you should reflash your board with the unibios, if you havent done so already.

www.universebios.com

Razoola will even put your boards serial number into the bios when you order a copy, naturally there is a fee if you want the newest version, but it is certainly worth it.

Yeah, it's possible that the Puzzle Bobble cart is a bootleg, but if it plays I'm content.

Yeah normally where the issues show is typically end of level/game sequences or character selections. I actually own 2 bootlegs which are perfect so im happy too. I've also been stung in the past with a couple of bad bootlegs so now im really fussy about my games. Though if you're upto it you can dismantle the bad bootlegs and reflash them with good dumps, i've personally not done this yet, i just sold on my bad bootlegs to someone that wanted to do this.

Good place to check out is www.neo-geo.com lots of people selling stuff there and giving out plenty of help with detecting bootleg carts.

Is it just me, or is there no .gpe file in this zip? Do I need to use a .gpe file from the last build? Or you just don't need it anymore? Not working for, BTW. Keeps saying I'm missing bios, but I have them in my roms folder.

I am having a problem and I don't know if its me or what. When using GNGeo v0.7 b5 I was playing League Bowling and was having problems with it displaying in Japanese... yet when I use the same rom in MAMEGp2x v3.9 it displays in english. I checked the settings for the cfg file and it is set for english but still it displays in Japanese. Also it won't play Baseball Stars Pro... yet it will in MAME... though I thought I did have it working previously...

So is it me... or are there still a few bugs that still need to be sorted out. I love the interface though... great job on the emulator.

Try setting it inside the unibios settings aswell. Also it wont play your other game because it is the wrong set for gngeo.

There is no .gpe for the main emu as it's not needed, only need the one for rage2x.
Last time I checked there was a rage2x exec in there.

You need beta4. Beta5 is merely a patch.

Has anyone had any problems with TV-out? My TV seems to show RageX fine, however if I start a game with the tv-out option selected, it either crashes out to RageX with some screen corruption, or crashes completely needing a power cycle. I've tried nearly all combinations of settings, nothing helps. I haven't tried 0.7, was tv-out fine with the earlier version?

Ok I definitely have a problem with this emulator... I was having all kinds of problems so I reloaded all the files and it seemed to work fine. Then it all happened again... games that previously loaded fine are now not working. It looks like it loads fine... then my screen goes a solid green and freezes.

Any ideas...???
