First of all: Thanks Chui and Fox68k for these jewels you guys are making.

My question is about the Windows version of NEO4ALL AES. How exactly it works? What is the right directory for the bios to be put in? No matter what I do I always get a blank screen with a BGM when i double click on the icon to run the emu. There's no way for me to choose a game. Why is this happening? Are the results with the win version the same with the dreamcast version?

I'm on a Win2000 pro (updated) PC. My bios files:

neo-geo.rom -> renamed to aes-bios.bin
ng-lo.rom
ng-sfix.rom
ng-sm1.rom -> sfix.sfx
All files are with the correct size(128k, 64k, 128k, 128k respectively)
(all my roms have been converted by using these bios files)

Thanks in advance for any help. Happy new year for everyone!

The same thing happens to me when I try to run the windows version.I would really like to get this working so i can test the roms before burning.I burned 1 disc with Captain Tomaday on it and it works great. I am running windows xp sp2 on a pIII with a Riva tnt2 video card.

Tested roms list, using First Alpha Version:

Burning Fight
Perfect gameplay, just some sound lags, normal.

Fatal Fury
Works fine...

Fatal Fury 2
So much lags while reading ROM during the game. In the 2nd battle you can't hit the opponent, and vice-versa (you can hit him only with trow). In the 3rd battle the time clock stars at just 2 seconds and makes impossible to hit the opponent in time.

Fatal Fury 3:
Frequently a blank (black) screen appears, losing all graphics. Just sound stays. This makes the game unplayable.

SNK vs. Capcom Chaos:
Impossible to choose any character at Arcade Mode (the cursor don't move, staying at Kyo).

Today i will test more ROMS!

C ya!!!

actualy, you CAN choose another character besides Kyo in SVC CHAOS.... just press the start button and the cursor will start randomizing the character... just go trying until the cursor stops on the character that you want, and then select it...

Oh thanks... i've been discovered this trick hours ago!

But... the 'lags' (of loading) during the game, when you perform a move, really sucks a lot...

[chui]

Yes, very large games like SVC Chaos is not playable because there are a lot of page fliping, Dreamcast have 16MB and SVC Chaos is a game >80MBytes.

I finally tried out Beta 1 with ROMs from the latest MAME romset. I used prefetches when possible and removed extraneous emulator files to free up valuable RAM as well.

The following games were near perfect:
2020 Super Baseball
Aero Fighters 2
Baseball Stars 2
Battle Flip Shot
Eight Man
King of Monsters
Last Resort
League Bowling
Magical Drop 2
Nam-1975
Thrash Rally
Wind Jammers

The following games had graphical errors and may be playable with an older romset:
Aero Fighters 3
Magical Drop 3

The following games had loading issues and/or graphical errors and are basically unplayable:
3 Count Bout
Fatal Fury 2
Kabuki Klash
Last Blade 2
Metal Slug
Metal Slug X
Samurai Showdown II
Shock Troopers
Street Hoop
Top Hunter
Turf Masters
Twinkle Star Sprites
Waku Waku 7

What is the romset needed? The "Neoragex" or the "MAME"? One of these does not work under the other's emulator.

I tried renaming my SVC, but no success. I have that "No valid romset found for source rom file", all the time, I'm getting upset.

Any help?

By the way, I just love Neo4all, that NGCD emulator. It really rules! I never thought I would be able to play older KOF in my DC.

I'm sending Chui's page to everyone I can. It's really a lot amazing.

I do want to test AES4all, since there's no "Rage of the Dragons" released for the NGCD.
