    Default NEO4ALL/AES Prefetchs

    We need help to create prefetch files for NEO4ALL/AES emulator for Dreamcast.

    Download package HERE and follow next steps:


    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    HOW TO CREATE INITIAL NEO4ALL/AES PREFETCHS


    This is a little guide about how to create initial prefetch files for NEO4ALL/AES emulator. You need a BBA or coders cable for sending prefetch information from Dreamcast to PC.
    In next steps, i suppose that you have a BBA, for coders cable is very similar.

    1.- Create a normal CD with NEO4ALL directory+files and put your convert ROMS (.AES) to any directory too.

    2.- Run DC-TOOL loader tool under Dreamcast.

    3.- Swap CD with your prepared CD (step 1).

    4.- Go to GNU/Linux or Windows command line and launch binary redirecting standard output, example: 'dc-tool -x aes4all.bin > prefetch'

    5.- Choose any ROM without touch emulator params.

    6.- Play normally and try to avoid large presentations. When MMU cache will be full emulator will stop itself.

    7.- If you had played a lot of time (>30min), go to exit option menu.

    8.- Send me prefetch file (stadard output redirect): [email protected]

    9.- Also you can test your prefetch, edit prefech file and cut lines between '_MMU_HANDLE_DUMP_MEMACESS_ -------' and '-------_MMU_HANDLE_DUMP_MEMACESS_', only data without tags ..._MMU_... using wordpad.

    10.- Copy cut file as prefetch/name_of_aes.pre under convertneo directory and rebuild .AES file.

    Thanks to all !

    Wouldn't it be possible to incorporate this into the windows version of Neo4ALL/AES? This would make the prefetch ability much more accessable...

    No, NEO4ALL/AES with MMU is only for Dreamcast.

    I have a question:

    In SvC Chaos, the game slowdowns are because of the loading stuff while in mid-game... the game rus at 100% while the DC isn't loading nothing.

    the major loadings while in gameplay are SFX loadings, soo: would it be possible to make the prefetchs to load the necessary stuff before the combat, so we can play with a COOL framerate in mid-game??

    P.S.: can someone PWEEEEEASE make the prefetch of KoF 2003!!! :'(
    I just LOVE that game! it would be AWESOME to have it on Dreamcast!!!

    I already converted the ROM, but the emu only runs the BIOS... after that.. nothing happens... :'(

    Here's my wishlist:

    1. and above all: Sengoku 3 (my favorite NeoGeo game!)
    2. Nightmare In The Dark (Prototype)
    3. Shock Troopers 2
    4. Prehistoric Isle 2
    5. Strikers 1945 Plus

    ...well, and of course another Metal Slug is always welcome

    Chui, regarding SNK vs Capcom - wouldn't it possible to improve the prefetch so the emulator would know exactly which character's graphics and sounds to load once you selected your character ?
    Do you think something like this would be possible ?

    I mean the game really runs fullspeed for me but the loading times during the 1st Round still is annoying.

    SNK vs Capcom to me really is the most important reason to worship this emulator: Thank you so much for finally bringing this game home to the good old DC !

    @Everyone that's interested in contributing prefetches:
    You can buy a High-Speed USB <-> Dreamcast Coders Cable for 50 bucks!
