NEOGEO Emulator for PSP beta

[mameuser]

http://neocdz.hp.infoseek.co.jp/psp/img/ngepsp_icon.png

NJ (http://neocdz.hp.infoseek.co.jp/psp) has released a new version of his NeoGeo Arcade Emulator for the PSP

Thanks to b8a for the translation:

Fixed the issues with alpha 3.
I don't have time right now, so please see the sources below for what's changed.

readme.txt
list.txt

Items that can not be fixed due to the implementation

Sound plays, but sometimes does not syncronyze with the screen
The speed drops drastically when there is a lot of sprites being drawn

*I'm thinking that it looks like games along the lines of Waku Waku 7 are going as far as they can go when at the barely playable level. If only there was twice as much memory.

I also translated the readme and list files. See this post: http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/sho...067#post138067, if interested.

This project is coming along very quickly. This is awesome.

[oninotsume]

Been playing this for a couple of hours now. It makes me wonder what this guys job is since he seems to have unlimited time to work on this emulator:rolleyes:

No matter, it kicks ass. Kizuna works now, where as before it just let to a black screen.

I'm really interested to know how the cache system works. I wonder if it creates some kind of prefetch or if it's just compressing the sprites until they are called for?

Let's see if he reads these forums.

NJさん、

お疲れ様です。

NeoGeo CDZとNGEPSPをいつも楽しませて頂いています。

NGEPSPに入れ込んだキャッシュ仕様何のですが、このデータの処理仕方はNJさんの独自のものでしょう か？それともMame4Allの作家Chuiさんと似た様な過程を使用していますでしょうか？

プログラムについて詳しくないのですが、ただこのエミュが凄くて好奇心的にどう動いているか興味があります 。

時間があれば教えて頂けないでしょうか？

宜しくお願い致します。

I said it before, and I repeat it

aaaaaamazing

:)

[bosanova_x]

well I'm mega impressed with this amazing emu, would love some of the later neo geo games to work though.svc chaos,garou mark of the wolves anybody?

is it possible?

Keep up the good work!!!!

[pkmaximum]

Man and I though n64 for the PSP was coming around rather quickly but this emulator is being built up pretty quick. Great work!!

P.S. Is Metal Slug any bit playable yet 1 or 2 because I know anything beyond that for Metal Slug is not playable.

P.S.S. I know were probaly looking down the road on this one but I really hope in this NEO GEO emulator that multiplayer support is released that way we can play games like Metal Slug 1+2, and X multiplayer, also some old school games like Magic Sword:)

[LazerTag]

Is the difference between NEOGEO Emulator and NEOCDZ, that this one is for NeoGeo arcade ROM versions instead of CD ISO versions of the games?

[acn010]

this is nice,, came fast

[Plowking]

Metal slugs 1 and 2 are on the cd version of the emulator.

Although metal slug 2 is slow, 1 is almost perfect.

The only downside is they are bigger file sizes (unless you strip the music out). They are also better on the cd version because they have the combat school option.

The mvs version doesn't have that does it?

[ACID]

Is the difference between NEOGEO Emulator and NEOCDZ, that this one is for NeoGeo arcade ROM versions instead of CD ISO versions of the games?

This is the arcade version witch is also the very expencive neo geo cartrige sounds are kind of like wav vrs. mp3 for the cd version but the mb of a game are way less then thoes of the cd version.

[bosanova_x]

kof 94 and 95 work quite well,playable to say the least but not perfect.

[Voltron]

I noticed you can alternate between different bios versions, i.e. uni-bios, AES, etc. Does this mean we can now play ROMS with the .rom extension without the hassle of converting them?

[Cap'n 1time]

quite a few games that require the cache files work now. Blazing Star's performance has improved too... now background music is working :p

[aleborri]

I've been testing all day and got 23 new games working, awesome :D

The only bad thing is that those that need to be patched don't work well with sleep, so prepare to finish all those games without turning the PSP off :P

In any case, awesome emulator, I hope they can fix the sleep thing and improve fps, which will probably be solved in two or three days if they continue releasing new updates like this :)

can you give us the list of the games you got working that didnt work before:cool:

[ACID]

heres the ones that work with beta .for some reason samurai showdown has to be started first if you ply a game before it it wont work. must be relkated to memory use

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Ive had this version crash on me a few times prev release was more stable for me am rolling back.anyone else having issues with this relese(rom I was playing was Burning Fight)

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Always when tweaking settingings just happened on magician lord .

[ACID]

same thing for me yes i can play blazing star , samurai 2,3 but the list i made of over 75 fulli working with almost perfect fps dont work all that great now and some dont even start so i whent back to alpha 2 i think is the best so far

[pdogg]

@ voltron: No. The universe Bios just adds some tweaks. Romsets are still identified by their CRC and (if NJ left it in - SHA1 Checksums).

ROM_LOAD16_BYTE( "240-c1.bin", 0x0000000, 0x800000, CRC(effac504) SHA1(e36a96e7369b02c7e839b5abf3c6799453ba1927) )

this is a typical (while older) line of sourcecode (pc mame) for loading a rom. And this is where the problems begin: the bigger games can have like 8 x 8MB Videoroms (besides all the program, music and voice-roms). The Cachefiles starts, where the physical PSP-memory ends by splitting up all "missing" Videoroms in small chunks to make them fit in the psp-mem as soon as they´re needed. And this is what makes me think we wont get any significant performance or compatibility-boosts (Really hope NJ proves me wrong !)


The ".rom" files were originally used in NeorageX which always needed decrypted graphic roms. Many NeoGeo games are encrypted to stop bootleggers, so some of them have/had to be decrypted to run in neoragex. Mame on the other hand always wanted to emulate a machine 100%, so mame can handle crypted roms, as the decryption was done IN the emulation (as the original machine would do, too).

Well, as I said before I doubt well see MUCH of a performance/compatibility-increase, as loading from the memstick will always be too slow. Im actually thinking of a bankswitching-type of "workaround", but that would need a proper prediction when which rom is needed ... prolly impossible to accomplish !?

[ACID]

pdogg as you have seen and probably know this games where able to run in varios forms give NJ credit he is just barely getting started. And dificult to do maibe impossible nothing is impossible.

[ACID]

Now the only consirn i have for NJ is what can possiblie be done for less energy consumption been that you load a game next thing you know your battery is at 75% and you only played a couple of minutes

[nexus68]

There are no miracles, see the readme of NJ and the list of games Impossible to support at present and in the future.

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Anyone else having lockup issues on this release ????

[pdogg]

on, dont get me wrong ! NJ has done A LOT for us, neogeo-wise -> fully appreciated (Not to forget YoYoFr as he made the emu NJ´s work is based on) I didnt mean to crit him, but I FEAR the technical limitations of the PSP (memory) will make it very hard to get any significant performance or compatibility-boosts. The point is that the emulation itself is nearly perfect (even though the emu is still young), as its basically the same as NeoGeo CD (68k, Z80 and so on), But theres not much to do about the memory-problem. (STILL I hope NJ proves me wrong) His caching-approach is very good, but the problem of the speed of the memstick will persist .
Again: Plz NJ, prove me wrong (nobody would love it more than me) :)

[ACID]

Nobody sayd you did pdogg just give some hope to the newpeople out there that have hopes im glad with what its able to do now ive always been a 2d fighter lover and now i have like 50 of them in mi hands great job

[Voltron]

Thank you pdogg for your answer to my .rom extension question. The explanation was appreciated.

1.) A lot of things that we can do now on the PSP were thought to be "impossible" not all that long ago. This should give hope for the future.

2.) Homebrew just had its first anniversary and look how far PSP homebrew has progressed in just 1 year.

3.) There is a lot of talk about memory stick speeds too slow. Some memory sticks are faster than others. I use a SanDisk Ultra II and it is much faster than regular memory sticks. Also, SanDisk will probably release Extreme III PRO Duo's hopefully and those are even faster than the Ultra II's..... SO would faster memory sticks alleviate this problem?

All in all, it still is great work and still a WIP. NJ could have stopped after NeoGeo CDZ and he would have been greatly respected. But now he is working on this. We owe him so much.

i also agree, they had done a lot in just 1 year. just imagine the progress in the second and third year, just imagine how many things the psp can do :)

[V3N0M]

I'm sure some day there will be a way to play large games from the memory card like the metal slug games. No worries here. I mean look at the n64 emus they are getting close to being playable. If thats possible then i think Neo Geo will work in time either through faster memory cards or another method like loading the game in portions. Anyways great work.

[siulmagic]

this an mazing release .i finally got a rom to work they all said rom set nto suported lol but yea its cool now hope this bcomes a great emu

[NovaKane]

Am I the only one who can't get the Sprite Rom converter to work? When I double click it, it just says:

1) Please select rom file
2) Press any key to exit

Where do I put the rom I need within the program? Can someone explain. I'm confused.

[fire master]

This is a very excellent emulator and is growing quick.
Can you get multiplayer to come anytime soon.

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

like ive asked twice earlier anyone else having lock up problems on menus during games when tweaking ???

[Voltron]

like ive asked twice earlier anyone else having lock up problems on menus during games when tweaking ???

What firmware are you using? This sounds like the sort of problems that sometimes occur with emulators on 2.00+ firmware.

[dublas1980]

hey can someone help me to make this thing to work. this emu loocks nice but the only thing is that i dont now how to make the roms to work. Can someone please help me.

No broth you are not the only one here with the problem. :D

[BALL_SAC]

All I want to play is Garou: Mark of the Wolves, SVC Chaos, and king of fighters 2003. Those are the games Im looking forward to play. :)

[mameuser]

Unless a new Memory Management is use, current state are impossible .

[mameuser]

Prehistoric Isle 2 is about over 60MB, and it is working.

I wonder why>

[repuken2]

All this situation reminds me back in '98 when NeoRage was everything. I had a Pentium 233 mhz and 24 megs of ram. I had to do the virtual memory trick to play games up to kof97. How great those days were.

The funny thing is that today i own an old Laptop, a Toshiba Libretto 70ct, it is a Pentium 120Mhz mmx with 16 megs of ram, 200 megs free HD space out of 1 gig and 1 meg of video ram. I use to play Kof 2000, Garou, Metal Slug 3,4 and 5 and Svc Chaos on my small thing. Sure it eats a couple of frames and runs it without sound but it's also running games on top onf windows 98!!.

I hope this emu improves in the future cause im loving it right now, Fatal Fury Special with sound, thats great!!!. Cheerz to NJ!

[publicprivates]

whoa, metal slug is working great! Just beat 3 missions with little slowdown. It only slows down a bit when there are like 14 dudes on the screen shooting me in the groin and heliopters shooting my tank. So far, working better than ninja commando.

[doof69]

i cant get metal slug working, It says i have named the zip file wrong.

[NovaKane]

As far as the roms that don't need conversions, everything worked perfectly except Spinmasters (black screen). I hope for Mark of the Wolves and SVC Chaos to be playable too.

<b>Can someone please tell me how to use the Sprite rom converter. I really want to play Kizuna and Waku Waku 7. </b>

[aleborri]

The new games, 25, I got working with the cache system are:

agressors of dark combat
art of fighting 2
art of fighting 3
blazing star
double dragon
fatal fury special
fatal fury 3
galaxy fighters
kabuki clash
kof94
kof95
kof96
magical drop 3 (no sound)
metal slug
overtop
prehistorik isle 2 (graphic errors)
Pulstar (gets stuck at region warning message)
Samurai Shodown 2
Samurai Shodown 3
Savage Reign
Shock Troopers
Sonic Wings 3
Super Sidekicks 3 (graphic errors)
Waku Waku 7
World Heroes Perfect

Right now I just want them to fix the sleep thing since many games can't be finished just in one go.

About memory problems, one thing I don't understand is, like gp2x neogeo emu did at the beginning, why don't they try to make bigger roms work without loading sound so that there's more memory for graphics and some more games will work. It isn't by far a great solution but I would enjoy a lot some fighting games even without sound.

And, like most people are saying, PSP scene has made possible things that before were impossible, so even though obviously memory limitations are a big issue, I do hope the clever minds around will find how to manage memory more efficiently.

Also, the latest snes9x emu did take advantage of the other core of the PSP for great performance improvements, I hope they can do this here too.

[NovaKane]

<b>Aleborri</b>, can you tell me how you got the Sprite rom converter to work. I see you have Waku Waku 7 on your list which is what I want to play. Maybe you can help me out. I would really appreciate it.

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Voltron Fw 1.5. and proud :)

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

#42 metal slug has slowdown anyway when the screen is really busy so it sounds perfectly normal.

[Ellises]

I updated to the new emulator and now I'm having problems, I get CRC errors now that I never use to...

Strange thing is when trying to load any game, the same error happens, this is what happens:

Checking ROM info...
ROM set "fatfury2"
Loading "US MVS (Ver 1)"
Loading "sfix.sfix"
ERROR: CRC32 not correct. "CPU1 (P ROM)"
Press any button.

[Ellises]

I put the roms into the roms directory of the main folder and then it worked.

[mameuser]

Beta 2 coming soon....... neogeo

mainly graphics/bug fix

[nexus68]

Am I the only one who can't get the Sprite Rom converter to work? When I double click it, it just says:

1) Please select rom file
2) Press any key to exit

Where do I put the rom I need within the program? Can someone explain. I'm confused.


What's the problem, just browse to your rom file when the Windows panel popup after the command dos.
Are you on winxp.

[aleborri]

Novakane, just load the converter, select the zip file of the game, when it's done copy the game zip to the rom folder on psp and the cache file it just created to the cache folder on the psp, it should work ;)

[NovaKane]

Winxp? I still use Win98. Maybe that's the reason? When I double click on the application it comes up as a Dos type window and I don't know what to do from there because I never see a window panel pop up after that >_<

[ACID]

if you cant get it to work like we all do you will have to manualie input the data. Go to your start button and press run then tipe the name of the programe romcnv a window should pop up. or press start then search

[NovaKane]

I tried both ways but still ended up with just the dos window.

Hey Aleborri if it's not any trouble, maybe you can upload your cahce files as a zipped attachment.

I really want to play Waku Waku 7 lol.

[aleborri]

mameuser, do you know if the sleep thing is getting fixed, or even the author cares for making it work? Thanks for keeping us updates, appreciated.


Strange about the converter, after double clicking romcnv.exe, a dos windows pops up and a windows window ask you to select the zipped game. Try to download again the beta or the alpha3 release at http://neocdz.hp.infoseek.co.jp/psp/index.html#top , maybe the one you got didn't come through correctly.

I can't upload the cache since it's part of a game just compressed and no games or bios can be posted :(

[NovaKane]

No prob. I'll try again. If it doesn't work this time I'll just wait until the next release :( Thanx though.

[-LO-LEADER1]

I have done everything correctly to get metal slug running but for some reason after it loads my cache and starts to load the sprites, it just turns of my psp. Does anyone have an idea of how i can fix this problem??

[NovaKane]

Well, I downloaded it again and got the same results. I know it's a reach Aleborri but do you think you can email the caches to me since you can't upload them?

If so, my email is [email protected]

[ACID]

does eanybody have a problem with pulstar i keep getting awarning sine when the game starts and will not play this is the only game on the list of working games not working for me eany body have an idea i even tryed the uni-bios but thoesnt help

[r-complex]

For Your Metal Slug fix.. Try CyberLip! It runs great! It was IMHO.. a Very Under-rated game!

[O-bake]

does eanybody have a problem with pulstar i keep getting awarning sine when the game starts and will not play this is the only game on the list of working games not working for me eany body have an idea i even tryed the uni-bios but thoesnt help
Yeah, me too. Maybe we need the AES bios, haven't tried this yet.
I'd really like to play this game on the PSP and the CD-Version eats too much space :(

[mameuser]

Garou and SVC Chaos on beta 2

[O-bake]

is the speed really at it's limit? i mean reading the cached sprites...
metal slug is so slow, compared to the cd-version.
and actually, the cd-data must be read from the memstick, too.
but maybe memory handling is different in the cd-version...

[Cho Aniki]

Corrupt gfx has never made me soo happy:) garou is like 77meg packed so probably over 100meg unpacked.

[mameuser]

開発状況 (→beta 2)
・ROM変換ツールを更新。
・餓狼伝説2のプロテクトが動作していなかった不具合を修正。
・起動不可になっていたゲームをPCMデータを読み込まないで動作するように変更。
　サウンドは当然再生されません。
　(サウンド無しではプレイしても面白くないので、やりたくなかったんですが)
　動作はしますが、ほとんどのゲームはスプライトデータの入れ替わりが多すぎて
　はっきり言って満足にプレイできる速度では動作しません。

.ROM conversion tool renew
.Garou wolf correcting the bug

[pdogg]

bloody translation:

Development circumstance (-> beta 2)
ROM conversion renewing the tool.
餓 wolf correcting the trouble where protect of legend 2 is not operational.
Starting the game which has become failure without reading the PCM data, way it operates, modification.
Sound is not played back properly.
(There is no sound with playing, it is not funny, because, you did not want to do, it is but)
It operates, but as for most games the inserting substituting of the sprite data being too multi
Speaking clearly, at the speed which you can play satisfactorily it does not operate.

whatever, NJ rules :)

[mameuser]

anyone know where to get a good/proper japanese to english online translator

[pdogg]

well, I think the translation above makes it clear enough :/ ...

[repuken2]

it would be cool to use the drecrypted sets, the newer games are 70++ megs!!!.

Srry for the noob question but how do I use the uni-bios n where do they go...Ive been using the old bio's and alot of the roms dont work.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx!

btw, can the uni-bios be post at here?

mameuser,thanks but i already knew where to get them,what i want to know is how to use them and where do they go because i put it in the rom folder but the emu doesnt recognize them as bios.
Thanx for ur trouble anyway.

mameuser thx thnx thnx for the updates, it's awesome those games are working. The thing is that kof98 or kof99 for example are way smaller than svc or garou, so I think there's a big chance they will be working too :D

Can't wait for beta 2, NJ rules! Anyone knows if I can donate

Yes, it work, but due to frequenly read from MS. game slow down alot

[aleborri]

great :) just one more day now :D

Yeah, me too. Maybe we need the AES bios, haven't tried this yet.

sounds like you have a bad romset. youll need to look around and find a good dump.

[lerocher]

how about "knightmare in the dark"...this game is in the list but don't work...

[ACID]

ones again check for another romset it works for me lerocher

[swisstony123]

sounds like you have a bad romset. youll need to look around and find a good dump.
The thing is ive used these zipped roms with neo-ragex and they work fine any other thoughts i'm grabbing at straws here

[Cap'n 1time]

well i believe neo-ragex does things in a ceratin formatt. perhapes your ran a program that converted these to MAME compatable roms and some how screwed somthing up?

ok ok firstly thanks loads for your help!! but i have a new problem.....im getting
ERROR:ROM not found. (zip file name incorrect) ive aquired some different roms from elsewhere?!?!
Ive noticed in some zipped game files they are .rom and others have series of numbers or numbers or letters

actually thats what i was refering above.

To confuse things years ago developers from Final Burn and Developers from MAME decided to make two different formatts of the same rom dumps. This emulator only accepts the MAME dumps. you can change them by hand somehow, or there are tools that can convert Final Burn/Neo Rage formats into MAME. In the future when your downloading make sure you get the MAME rom of the same name rather than the NEOGEO roms.

Ah i see thanks for all your help as i finalley got it sorted!!! One last question ive got a mountain of these NEO GEO files that are not compatible is there anyway you've heard of batch converting them!??!? or has anyone else outhere? Ive tried looking and can't seem to find much!?! I'm even willing to do it by hand if someone can tell me what to do!?!? plus i wonder whats the possibility of future editions being compatible with the .roms and not just the mame .bins!??!?

Ah i see thanks for all your help as i finalley got it sorted!!! One last question ive got a mountain of these NEO GEO files that are not compatible is there anyway you've heard of batch converting them!??!? or has anyone else outhere? Ive tried looking and can't seem to find much!?! I'm even willing to do it by hand if someone can tell me what to do!?!? plus i wonder whats the possibility of future editions being compatible with the .roms and not just the mame .bins!??!?

Ok ive read this whole topic time over time and have gotten metal slug to start but then it gose into a black screen.

Durring the load up process i get an error REGION_GFX...try memory cache

Then the game starts up with a glitched green like screen, then gose to the neo-geo logo, then a ERROR:z80_bank error. Then the psp turns off.

Any help would be appreciated.

No Garou = No Happy D:

Damnit! That was the game that I had my hopes set on. I would kill for that on PSP... seriously.

[ACID]

ok ok firstly thanks loads for your help!! but i have a new problem.....im getting
ERROR:ROM not found. (zip file name incorrect) ive aquired some different roms from elsewhere?!?!
Ive noticed in some zipped game files they are .rom and others have series of numbers or numbers or letters
Try clrmame to fix your roms or add the.rom extention to each one so it can work:D

beta 2 W.I.P status

・YM2610のFM音源部分の負荷をどうにかしたいのですが、どうにもならず。
　異様に重いゲームがあるのはこいつが原因です。テンポのもたつきも気になる。
・JAMMA PCB版のゲームは対応しません。
　各種海賊版(bootleg)も当面は動作しません。
　(bootlegに対応してメモリを消費するくらいなら、他の機能に使ったほうがいいと思う )


.both bootleg and JAMMA PCB will not work

[aleborri]

mameuser, I suppose you're talking about svc chaos right? Also, is beta 2 still coming today? tia :)

The news in the above post, translated:
<div style="width:95%; margin: auto; margin-top: 1%; margin-bottom: 1%; padding: 2%; background-color:rgb(230,230,230); border: thin black solid"><ul><li>I'd really like to do something about the burden of the YM2610's FM sound portion, but nothings working.
When there are games that are exceptionally slow, this is the cause.
I'm also bothered by the tempo slowdown.</li>
<li>Jamma PCB version games won't work.
Accordingly, all pirated versions (bootlegs), also will not work.
(I think it'd just be better to implement other functions, as opposed to expending the required ammount of memory to support bootlegs)</li></ul></div>Incidentally, NJ frequently posts bits and pieces such as this, but I usually don't translate each and every one because it's a sort of "stream-of-conscious" posting style which may be helpful and educational to some, but I think it just confuses most people as the posts are often mostly irrelevant to the next release build's performance.

Without the prefetchs file is impossible... the memory stick is too slow...:(

[NovaKane]

Oh crap! SVC, Garou and Waku Waku 7 w/o cache...on 2.60?! I can't wait for beta 2 now!

[Lumir]

you need the neo geo bios inside the rom. and it should work but not all neo games work

Ok so what i did was drag the zip of the neogeo bios into the mslug zip rom and tried it again. And i ended up getting the same error.

Please anyone help, am i suppose to unzip the neogeo bios into the mslug rom zip?

there are more than one neogeo bios

make sure you are using the arcade one.

also just have it as a zip file in the folder with all your zipped arcade neogeo roms.

shouldn't be a problem after that.

if you have a problem finding it use google or pm me and i can point you in the right direction

pspcross

by the way my neogeo bios zip is 259kb in size this may help find the right one.

Im guessing its my metal slug rom. I got the same neogeo bios as you.

[SINIStER]

I cant get metal slug to start at all.it says rom no supported.Ive tried different slug roms with the same results:( what can be wrong?

[Lumir]

Ok i got the right stuff i think the problem lies withing the converter. I notice that it only converts part of the metal slug super vehicle 001 rom.

And i also notice when im loading the rom it loads up to the point were the converter converted and then it gives me the error message.

The game begins to start, the neogeo logo comes up and then the psp turns off. I think its the converter.

EDIT: Yep it was the converter. I had to reinstal the emu and reconvert and walla! Metal Slug works like a charm... well cept for the slow downs, thanks to all that help out.

[ACID]

This are the games i have gotten to work almost perfect for mi 1.0 and 1.50 psp.:D

[wilbur]

I've been putting off trying this emu as i knew i'd have probs getting it to work, but i can't wait no more.

first hurdle i've got is that when i try to convert blazing star, i get the message

'ERROR: could not load sprite rom (c rom)'

is this easily overcomable or is my rom duff/wrong.

[fucht017]

Samurai Spirits still has some static crackling noise,when you start it......and there is no sound with the end boss and end credits...but whoom am i to judge....Superb EMU!!:D

[ACID]

[QUOTE=fucht017]Samurai Spirits still has some static crackling noise,when you start it......and there is no sound with the end boss and end credits...but whoom am i to judge....Superb EMU!!

Must be your rom set i beat it like 3 times already and the sound was perfect.:p

[SINIStER]

I got metal slug to work,it must of been the rom i was using and the converter worked just fine.
fucht017,I do think its the rom your using because mine doesnt have any sound issues.

[ssbm_04]

I got a problem in running metal slug.

Loading "sfix.sfx"
ERROR: Could not allocate REGION_GFX3 memory.
Try to use memory cache...
ms0:/PSP/GAME/NGEPSP/cache?mslug_cache.zip
ERROR: Could not open cache file.

What does that mean? I've been getting that for all my games. Can someone help?

[publicprivates]

did you use the converter to make the metal slyg cache then copy that chache to the cache folder onthe ms?

[ssbm_04]

Thanks so much... I forgot to do that. Now I having problem still with metal slug. It seems it I can't convert the cache for the game? Do you think there is something wrong with the rom? Or not?

[SINIStER]

Thanks so much... I forgot to do that. Now I having problem still with metal slug. It seems it I can't convert the cache for the game? Do you think there is something wrong with the rom? Or not?

Go to the developers site.

DL the whole emu again.

Reinstall it on ur psp.

Put neogeo.zip (bios) in roms folder on your psp.

Go to the converter folder that came with the emu.
Click romcnv.

Select your rom that is in zip format (example mslug.zip) when the window pops up.

If the converter says no need to convert just put
the zipped rom in the roms folder.

If it dose convert, after its done click on the cache folder in the converter folder were the romcnv program is, and put the file inside it in the cache folder in your psp's neogeo folder. (example, if you converted mslug, a file named mslug_cache will be in there, put that in the cache folder on your psp)

Finally put the zipped game (example, mslug.zip) in rom folder as well.

Good luck and try various roms.

Beta 2 W.I.P update

・サウンドの再生速度の修正が難航中。
　正しい速度で演奏するとサウンドスレッドの処理と速度が合わずノイズが発生、
　スレッドの処理に合わせると再生周波数が変化して曲のテンポが遅くなる。
　どうしたものか。これが解決すればとりあえずbeta2を出せるんだが。
　とりあえず、最も違和感の無い周波数でサンプルデータを生成する方向で対応。
　ゲームをプレイ中には気付かない程度だと思われる。

this guy is working very hard to make it perfect.

[mameuser]

開発状況 (→beta 2) update again
・一度リセット。
　サウンド関係の修正が思うようにいかないため、リリースはまだ先になるでしょう。
　PCB基板、bootleg版、特殊なゲーム(irrmaze、vliner等)を除いたゲ ームの対応は
　完了しています。


coming very soon, maybe today

[grit]

Yeah!
NJ rocks!
He's working a lot on this.. Magically..
ThanX!

[wilbur]

NJ is brilliant. thanks so much for coding this.

Out of interest, if neo geo is possible, is it also possible to run a CPS-1/2 emulator on the psp? or are there far too many sprites to load?

It would be awesome to see Dungeons and Dragons-Tower of Doom and the likes up and running.

Not that i'm not happy enough with my neo geo (cd) emulators of Course-I love em!!!

[bosanova_x]

so cant wait for the beta 2 version of this emu,do we know if it is possible to run garo MOTW and svc? As I'd love to have them in the palm of my hand.

loving samuri showdown 3 at the mo,roll on garo though.

keep up the most amazing work NJ!!!

[blou]

cps2...... nj, can you do it?

[fucht017]

Don't you guys have that annoying sound crack when you start up SAMSHO...you know,when you see the SNK logo?...I used many different roms..but still...oh i have a 1.5 by the way..thanks!

[mameuser]

Beta 2 W.i.P
There will be a delay on the next released

[ssbm_04]

Im having problem with metal slug. When you reach the 2nd mission. Somewhere in the middle of the game. an error will occur. There said something about sprite can't be loaded. Am i the only one having this problem?

[aleborri]

How long then until release? can't wait :D

[mameuser]

How long then until release? can't wait :D

[mameuser]

Beta 2 W.I.P

・CZ80にまだバグがあることが判明。
　修正できるまではMAMEのZ80を使用するようにします。
　が、MAMEのZ80ってメモリ消費が大きいんですよね・・・。
　餓狼伝説SP等がまたキャッシュを使用しないと動作しなくなっています。
　C68Kもバグありそうだなぁ。

[publicprivates]

hmm... What does that mean?

[ACID]

hmm... What does that mean?
Mameuser is been helping us out with some translations so I'm assuming the new release is around the corner.

[mameuser]

hmm... What does that mean?


he is now try to fix the CZ80 bug, because it cause the sound on garou to mute.

So now he is using the mame z80. but mame z80 using to much ram.....

Once he/she solve this. we will expect a new released very soon but only after fixing the z80.

[aleborri]

Thanks for the updates, I hope it comes out during this week :D I would be all right with a no sound release that was compatible with garou, svc chaos etc, but it seems he wants to release a working version with sound :eek:

[shinysuitman]

MMMMmmmmm.... this release has been awesome. there is nothing like putting virtual coins into a virtual machine. SAMURAI SHODOWN HERE I COME!!!

[Nobunaga]

It's here!! Check his website!!!

[NovaKane]

Oh man thats great,do you know if there's a translation of the readme or compatible list?

I don't think so, not yet anyway since it wasn't officially announced on the site about its release.

[odino]

Garou is good ( :) ) but the slowdown is terrible...:rolleyes:

[NovaKane]
