NeoDC v2.1 - Clearing out the crappy v2s

[quzar]

Sorry for the problems of the past two days. All of them are fixed and I wanted to make sure people knew it by doing a mini-release. This is basically what v2 was supposed to be, so it's a bugfix version. (after having 3 versions of v2, i figured it would be easier to keep track of problems by upping the version number)

This release has quite a few things improved from the last version (v2).
Fixed in v2.1:

CDDA is correct again, in kos.

quzar I have a question. I'm having some trouble with roms for the emu. most of the roms I have have a .c at the end of the file name. do i have to do anything special to them to make them work with the emu or leave as is. also could you tell me if you know, is there a way to make a roms disc so I don't have to make each one separate. anyway input will be greatly appreciated. thanks

[quzar]

This emulator is for Neo Geo CD games. There are no roms. Also, if you found files that are named something.c they are C language source files, not game roms.

Last blade works for you?? Weird, it never worked for me.

Also, there is no need for a 50/60 selector because it detects the region of the emulator automatically and sets the speed to 50hz for everything except the sound chips (ym2610 and 8910 these will be set based on the region in the next version.

It would be really helpful if you could comment more on defects as opposed to speed because i know that all games are going do be less than fullspeed with sound, and so I'm really focusing on accuracy and compatability.

Oh, and by all kof game, do you mean 94-99 AND 96 NG collectors edition?

[quzar]

I just tried Breakers and played two rounds with no problem. Its possible that i've fixed something since 2.1 as ive been working on it, but i doubt it. your disc may be bad.

[DARKGATE]

BREAKERS work you?
Humm, very strange , i have tested the game on other emu, NEOALL, and work very well, on your emu no :-/.
King of fighters 96 collectOR edition work perfect, but that not a game, but a slideshow on the game.

I see wich when you play at a game, and disable fx for listen only music, at next load of round or enemy, the cdda don't play the song : |.

When the fx are disabled a listen the music of cdda, the games work at 100 % of speed , but with fx no.

The games where i have put (problem to cdda) the song of cdda play wrong, for example : STAGE OF TERRY, and song of SELECT SCREEN, OR MAI STAGE AND SONG ANDY STAGE .

REAL BOUT SPECIAL i have this problems, with realbout 2 special, work perfectly to play the cdda.

However if to you, the games with sound and fx work to 100% i don't know tell you, .

My dreamcast is pal, but repeat if disable fx work at 100%speed , bye quzar
