AWESOME!!!
This emulator is going a long ways!

[NovaKane]

Great, I'm going to try this ASAP! Thanks!

[migsgiz]

nice!!!!!!!! keep it coming you guys!!! dont let the neo geo and ir thing steal your thunder lol

[djacura]

excellent kech, good work and perfect operation of pad analogic, continue thus working, cadilacs and dinosaurs not sound for the moment, but works fullscreen, omg is games like 1941, in hw scaled not view the image correct, is pixelation texture, recomend test in mode fixes or swscaled. a greeting and thx kech

[Pumped'Up]

thanks Kech for the improved version.

Is the compatibility game list improved as well this time?

[popcornx]

2.xx doesn't seem to work on 2.6...oh well


good job tho ^^

[nibblemynutz]

2.xx doesn't seem to work on 2.6...oh well


good job tho ^^

aww.. i was gonna ask. lol..

[NovaKane]

I just tried the 2.xx download since I have fw 2.60 and it worked fine for me. I wish there was sound for The Punisher and Dinosaurs & Cadillacs though. Final Fight runs ok but not perfect. At least the chipmunk voices are gone though. Keep up the good work.

[popcornx]

hmm how did you get it to work? I can't seem to get it to load..I'll keep trying tho.

[publicprivates]

what games currently run on this emu?

[subcomander]

i cant get any roms to work either. wat do u need so they could work? can someone tell me.

[Pumped'Up]

Looks like 0.0.3 is a step back for the FIXED resolution on CAPCOM CPS-1 games - the resolution is cut/shortened on both sides which the previous version appeared to have done this correctly.

[Mr. Shizzy]

a compatibility list would be most helpful...

[NovaKane]

All I did to get this to work on 2.60 was drop the MAME folder in the Game folder. I took my roms from the last version and just moved them into the current version. That's it.

The only roms I tried were:
The Punisher (full speed, no sound)
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (full speed, no sound)
Final Fight (not @ full speed, sound but not perfect)
Captain Commando (not @ full speed, sound but not perfect)

[ACID]

i have tryed over 500 games from the previos version and they all work yeihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[xiringu]

0.0.2 was working on my FW2.5

i overwrited it with this and ... doesn't work :(

oh well, let's go back to 0.0.2

[NovaKane]

I didn't overwrite my 0.0.2. I just deleted it after I put 0.3 on. Maybe you should try that instead.

[NovaKane]

Which FW are you running?

[rpreyes623]

can't get it load on fw 2.6. anyone able to get it working? any suggestions?

[ACID]

Which FW are you running?

I have a 1.0 firmware and a 1.50 and they both work :cool:

[ACID]

I will post the new list i compiled in the afternoon when i finish testing some more games.

[aleborri]

wooooohoooooo!!!!! I can't wait to try this, full screen glory, thnx thnx kech :)

[ACID]

oh bi the way thanxs kech your the man

[aleborri]

Hmm full screen seems to distort and pixelate the image a lot :( , though I understand these are old games and maybe this is to be expected

[gaz666]

I have 1.0 and cant seem to get this running.I just get the 'game could not be started' message.

Anyone any ideas please??:confused:

[SweetFA]

The fixed setting on the video seems to be a bit off-centre the bottom lines of Donkey Kong are now missing.

Great in HW-scale mode.

Mario still refuses to go up the ladders as well, unfortunately.

The other Mr Do! series games still don't allow you to play, you can't put the coins in with Select.

The joystick control is great, good work!

[funy56]

Can I ask you which file did you download to play on your psp 2.6? 1.5 or 2.0 file? Can you tell me where you put the file in.... psp? Thnks

[SmashinGit]

Defender runs so much better now and fullscreen. There are still some frameskip problems but other than that what an awsome release. Thanks

[zoole]

kech great!!!!!!!

but The edge of the screen cuts when it is "fixed".
Next, the improved thing is expected.

thx!!!!!

[Plowking]

I tried both versions and it doesn't work on 2.00 with the eLoader 97

[ACID]

Can I ask you which file did you download to play on your psp 2.6? 1.5 or 2.0 file? Can you tell me where you put the file in.... psp? Thnks
You need the 2.0 file and you put it in game folder

[funy56]

You need the 2.0 file and you put it in game folder

my psp is 2.6 version and I use FANJATA GTA to run the homebrew. I did put the folder in the GAME folder but I can't get it work. Pls assist

[xiringu]

I've tried the version in this web and it doesn't seem to work.

I've tried changing the names of the folders, etc and I couldn't.

BUT I downloaded another version from another web and it worked!!!

this is a link to a file 0.0.3 that REALLY works on FW2.5

(web is in spanish)
http://beta.pesepe.com/index.php?q=system/files&file=Mame4all2xxv003.rar


(note to admin)
please, change the file for the 2.XX version :)

[aTomIC]

Ah, good to see a new update by kech :)
great work

[zackforbing]

awesome: anyone know where the compatibility list is?

can you use this with zipped roms?

recommendation: make an option to rotate the screen (and controls) 90 degrees clockwise, like NOIZ2SA and rRootage for vertical shmups, or games like pacman.

[yamada]

I can play by MAME and am happy.
Please correspond to 'appoooh' by all means.

[bosanova_x]

Ive managed to get mame4all working on 2.6, although it seems to be a bit unstable with the pre loade rom of 1941.

Emu needs to be downloaded from beta.pesepe.com.

[Plowking]

Can the correct version be put up on this site?

I tried to register 3 times on beta.pesepe.com. with no success

*************

EDIT: ok got it...it wouldn't send an email to hotmail, had to use a different account.

[NovaKane]

I just downloaded the one from beta.pesepe.com. The one posted in this thread (for 2.xx) must be an older version w/ the 0.3 label because it didn't have 1941 in the roms folder. I must've misread before downloading.


Edit: This new is not working for me like the rest you who are having problems. It starts the loading process then it says something along the lines of, "unable to load video, unable to start machine emulation" :confused:

[pspcross]

i don't think this is an improvement

as mentioned by other folks

in fixed mode part of the bottom of the screen is cut off

and in HW scaled mode it is all pixelated.

just to let you know

cheers

pspcross

[NovaKane]

How did you all (w/ fw 2.50+) get the roms to load?

[aleborri]

Sadly I have to agree with pspcross, fullscreen doesn't look good (check final fight at fs to see what I mean), most games that didn't work before now still don't work (I tried swat, black tiger, sfII, alien storm, etc) so not much improvement really :(

In any case, I'm really grateful for the dev trying to improve things so please keep working on it ;)

[johanh]

Fantastic update. At last analog stick support!!! :)

Playing RoboCop and Indy:temple of doom works great!

With some smoothing filter added, like the SNES emu uses, the fullscreen will look great.

[LordVox]

Keep up the good work. This emu is excellent. It is not perfect, but it is by farthe best MAME for PSP!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[Unicorn]

as you can read some post above, version 0.0.3 of this emu works if you download it from beta.pesepe.com (http://beta.pesepe.com/index.php?q=node/2156).

Ive just sended to kech via email the correct eboot, im sure he will reupload the working 2.xx version in these forums as soon as possible.

In beta.pesepe, there's a file called "1941" because its a rom. We usually put one of them on each emulator in order to be able test the emulator, but its EXACTLY the same version as kech has posted here. I only made a change with the compression of the eboot in order to get it working, and i have explained it to kech, so he can solve the problem the next time.

Have a nice day pals.

you say " i only made a change in the compression of the eboot to get it working"

maybe this technique could work for other programs which don't run on 2+ but do on 1.5 such as dgen above 1.3.

please let us know and we 2+ users can try it out

anything is worth a try

thanks

pspcross

[repuken2]

Prehistoric Isle works now, doesn't hang!!!.
also POW works better now, now infinite jump glitch.
Ghoul n' Ghosts appear to be broken where it worked in last build.

Sf2, Rockman - Power Battle, Black Tiger and Trojan, TNZS, Boble buble doesn't work yet.
Rygar resets after first round, with or without sound, it happened in last build too.

Anyway i love Prehistoric Isle!!!

im on FW 1.5 BTW. Cheerz Kech!! Great Job!

Ive just seen your private message, i wasnt able to answer sooner, im sorry pal.

I will try to return here and post the silly method to uncompress eboot's, but i have been trying to use it with some other appz and games (such as SmashGPSP) with no good result...:-(

Hi this the games im able to play with this new version. At the same time it has shrunk bi almost 150 games from the previous version:D

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Me personally cant see any improvment still no bubble bobble.,side arms and no full screen hardware acelerated mode,needs alot of work still.alot of compatibility issuses need addressing.

[ACID]

Yes its true but the progress is awsome he will surprise us all soon compatibilitie when down less games playable butnext one hopefully will turn it around eather way great job Kech

[Sauron96]

I haven't been following this too closely...

Can someone tell me is most (90%) of pre-1990 games play almost perfect because honestly that's all really want...


...and maybe Golden Axe and Final Fight...but that's it I swear

[Amiga]

I have 1.0 and cant seem to get this running.I just get the 'game could not be started' message.

Anyone any ideas please??:confused:

and it will work.

Hi this the games im able to play with this new version. At the same time it has shrunk bi almost 150 games from the previous version:D

hmmm, You have "Elevator Action" i your list, but I can't get the original or bootleg rom versions to run. The roms load without error but then I just get a black screen. Whats the date of your EA roms? I have been hanging out for Elevator Action in portable form for yonks.

[whitey75]

Same here Bazza, I've tried 3 different versions of EA and all perform as u have just described.

The date is 1983 bi taito remember not all rom sets work use clrmame to check and fix the correct files.:D

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

Yeah ive rolled back to previous release loads of games that worked now no longer do.BUMMER :(

[BazzaLB]

Has anyone else managed to get Elevator Action to work with this PSP MAME4ALL. I ran clrmamepro against a gp32x based dat file for MAME 0.34 roms, but that generated an invalid rom. The rom I have loads without errors, but as I say just produces a black screen.

[ACID]

Bazzalb keep on trying different roms i got them from 2 different webs and work.

i sugest you google mame roms and go from there

[DefaultGen]

Out of 15 roms, only 2 showed up and only 1 worked at a bad framerate... (Toobin') :(

I guess i'll stick to Midway classics for now.

[gunntims0103]

i just want this question answered is it realistic to say that this mame emulator will be close to running marvel.vs.capcom as this is my favorite game and im sure its not running on this emu at the moment i havent tried this emu yet..........the mvsc rom is about 20,000 kb and im sure this mame emu cant handle this rom yet but what im asking is in the future can we suspect that this emu will be able to do so.........hopfully it will.........not sure

at least i posted it here and didnt start a hole thread just for this question as sum would do.....lol

thanx

[Baboon]

This new version is quality! Full screen and the analog stick is working instead of the dpad... Top stuff! :)

I've got loadsa games running on this now, and most of them with sound - Robocop, POW, golden axe, midnight resistance etc etc ...still no bubble bobble or tmnt though. :(.

Thanks again to PSPcross for helping me out getting this emu working.

[Unicorn]

some days before, i've just written a tutorial about what i did in order to have MAME4ALLPSP version 0.0.3 working on my PSP 2.00.
Its just here (http://beta.pesepe.com/index.php?q=node/2511), in Spanish. Im sure that you can use a web translator to understand it, if not, i will try to write it back in English.
Have a nice day pals

Elevator Action is running fine for me on this release. Maybe you're doing something wrong.

[JollyJoe]

I guess i'll stick to Midway classics for now.


Maybe the roms you wanted to run aren't compatible.

[Swoop]

How can I change the buttons to be remapped to more than just the multiple fire buttons and Start?

Space Duel requires more than just a mapping to START to be able to get a game going. After you enter in the coin, you must select dual ship mode or single ship mode as well as 1 or 2 player.

If anyone has a workaround, please do let me know. I have gotten it to work on MAME for the PC and XBOX using the full key remapping menu they have in there.

Kech,
Do you foresee the capability to map to more arcade machine buttons/controls in the near future? Any way I can hack at it myself? Maybe a .cfg file to (easily?) control mappings in the future?


Great job on the best MAME Emu for PSP!! :)

[Swoop]

Maybe the roms you wanted to run aren't compatible.

Also, there are so many VERSIONS of the same ROMS out there, based on the MAME version at the time. I believe I read this is based on MAME version .35 roms.

There are utlities out there to verify rom version as well as convert roms to older versions. Check out this util called ROMBuild that does just that; it converts newer roms to older versions. I haven't tried it yet for MAME4ALL-PSP, but I don't see why it wouldn't.

RomBuild is here: http://www.logiqx.com/Tools/ROMBuild/

So, the version is critical in order to get it working.

Working for me:
Ghouls N Ghosts
Ghosts N Goblins
Centipede
Galaga
Galaxian X
Gauntlet
Gauntlet 2
Gorf
Heavy Barrel
Phoenix - needs sample support
Rygar
Salamander

a lot more I dont remember at the time...


Not Working:
1943 US - says its counterfeit.
Bagman - locks within a few seconds of starting.
Bubble Bobble - never starts

*I may have bad rom versions for these, too.

[BazzaLB]

Elevator Action is running fine for me on this release. Maybe you're doing something wrong.

WOW, this is really frustrating.

I have tried a rom from 5 sites now (all of them around 37K) and they all result in a blank screen. I am using a FW1.5 PSP. Are those who are getting Elevator Action running using a later FW version? otherwise I can't for the life of me see whats going wrong here. Pacman, Galaga etc etc etc are all running fine. The analogue pad works fine in other games as well, so I am definately rtunning the 0.0.3 version of MAME4ALL.

Elevator Action is the ONLY game I really wanted to play via MAME4ALL so this is really frustrating

[ACID]

Ok i notice people are having problems with there roms onestly its eather been real lazy or idont know the coders give us this great emulators thanks kech and that should be enoughf its up to us to find a working rom i put out a list of this new reliease with all this working roms yet people keep complaining that such and auch game dont work. People if it doesnt work it doesent work or you just have a bad rom set. We cant fasilitate the rom web site but if you look at some of the compatibilitie list you know witch roms to try. I say if it worked for me then it works im not goign to just put out a list for pure fun i have tested over 3000 roms and this is the small list i got.

[NovaKane]

Ok for me, 0.0.3 works on fw 2.60 UNTIL I use one of the roms I put in the folder. What I did first was run 1941 just to see if everything was alright. No problems there.

As soon as I try to play The Punisher, Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Final Fight or Capt. Commnado, the emu wouldn't run them. The strange thing is, I used these exact roms on the earlier versions of MAME and they all worked fine.

Oh yeah, then I tried running 1941 again and because of trying to play it AFTER attempts of my roms...that wouldn't load up either (until restarted the emu)

What should I do?

[ACID]

the loading of games not working after working ones has been a problem from the beggining so if you restart your psp it should work again this latest version will just shut down after loading several roms. you will notice it will not even load a rom after a couple of game plays it will just freeze then shut down. In regards of the other games not working i sugest you delet the entire emulator and reinstall it

[NovaKane]

I just keep getting:

"unable to start video emulation
unable to start machine emulation"

I tried reinstalling etc. I keep getting the same message every time. That's only with this version though. I'll probably stick with 0.0.2 until the next update.

[BazzaLB]

I certainly wasn't being lazy, but I get your point. FWIW I'm up and running ;)

[Baboon]

One problem I do find is when I first load mame4all (I’m using a 2.6, gta) the screen tends to go black for about 5 minutes before it opens up the rom list menu. Does anybody else get this problem?

Also If your using eloader the only way to quit out of the current game is to press L,R and Start at the same time (as opposed to pressing the home button on 1.0 and 1.5 PSPs), so again rebooting the emulator takes quite a few minutes before you can load up a game.

I’m guessing its because there’s quite a few games in my roms folder and that it takes that long to read through the folders to see what games are compatible with mame4all? In other emulators (neo geo, snes etc) the rom list loads up straight away... hopefully this will be fixed in future releases?

Thanks again to all the peeps who put this emulator together! ...fookin great stuff! :D

[Panini]

I also get this problem loading my games on my 2.5. It does work, just takes forever to boot the mame emulator up.

[carpy]

Here's a dumb question: why is this version based on MAME .34 in stead of teh far more complete & standard MAME .36?

[phenom76]

Im begging someone please help ive been trying to get mame to work on ny psp for weeks

[carpy]

im using firmware 2.5 gta exploit with super bock emulator but cant get this mame to work it loads up then said load error for a rom where do i copy roms, how do i set up this emulator? any 411 would be much appreciated

Your zipped roms have to be in a folder called "ROMS" under the Mameforall main folder. The Roms have to be compatible with MAME version .34.

[phenom76]

and do i make a folder called roms or is it already in there

[phenom76]

is there supposed to be a folder there or do i create one and where do i get the roms i go to rom hustler is that a good one

[Swoop]

Is there support for samples yet? What's the progress on the next update? Is this the best place to post bug finds?

I am a very patient person, but I sure would like to see replies from the authors to show that they are reading all of our posts. ;)

[Swoop]

is there supposed to be a folder there or do i create one and where do i get the roms i go to rom hustler is that a good one

Phenom - all of the folders are already created for you. You just need to drop a .zip file of the rom into the ROMS folder and run it! :)

Try Galaga to test it out. THat's a small and easy one to get working.

You make a folder named Roms. and as far as asking for ROM sites its against forum policies

[JollyJoe]

I got a quick question. Anybody know why some games that are compatible for Mame 34 or 35 don't show up on the list? Case in point: Hi Impact is compatible with Mame 34 or 35 and it doesn't show up at all.

I'm not complaining or anything,it's just something I was wondering about.

[alleyal202]

Yo acid,does tron or disk of tron work with 02 version and also i have yie ar kung fu rom but it wont load.Please help

[djamm]

I found this to be a great improvement....it is truly playable....most games....

for those having trouble, make sure your getting the roms that are compatible...with MAME4ALL!!!

Cheers,

-=djamm=-

[thepce]

Thanks to Kech for the post and to all of you who posted compatible game lists. It works great on fw 2.0.

Peace.

[ACID]

Yo acid,does tron or disk of tron work with 02 version and also i have yie ar kung fu rom but it wont load.Please help

From this games the only one that works is YIE AR KUNG FU for both versions the others don't. All i can tell you is try clrmamepro you need a DAT .34 -.35 file to do this or try to download from different web sites till you find the right ROM.
I suggest you google for Mame Roms version .35

[alleyal202]

Thanks @ great work on the list @ helping me

[thepce]

Some roms seem to load but fail at the last second (says not enough memory, but I have 200 mgs empty).
Is this because I need to convert to version .34?

[ACID]

Thanks @ great work on the list @ helping me

No problem thats why we are here for.
All thoug hw is a great thing im rolling back to previous version because i tested over 200 more roms of witch atleast 60 off work with previous version hope kech will fix this.
By the way great job Kech:D

You eather test them or use clrmamepro and you need a .dat file for .34 or .35 mame if you looke in this thread i had posted a list of compatible games.

Dude,I'm not knocking you or anything. I think you're doing a great job with your list,but just because you got them working that doesn't mean everybody is. No matter what you do some of them just aren't gonna run.

I've gotten a lot of them to run,but there are some no matter what I do,they just won't run.

Oh,and by the way,I finally figured out why I couldn't get Street Fighter to run. Doesn't have anything to do with the rom,though.

Unfortunately i cant give the web where i get the Roms but is a German website and the Roms are in Mame .35 & .36 format and I'm not expecting them to work for everybody by just downloading from Any site. The Roms in the top 5 ROM sites everybody knows of are in 105 or 106 format for Mame so yes a lot of them wont work try getting the .DAT file for .35 or .34 then use clrmamepro.

(sigh) I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. Has a matter of fact I know you misunderstood what I was trying to say.

No kidding they're not gonna work juust from downloading them from any site. No kidding you got to use clrmamepro and dats from Mame 34 or 35 to get them working. Now tell me something that I don't know.

What I was saying was that even after you do all of that,some of them still aren't gonna work. Even if they are compatible with Mame 34 OR 35. I find that most of the ones that don't work for me will say something about being out of memory.

So please stop giving the "look at the list" speech. Because I can call out about 40 of them that don't work on my psp no matter what I do.

are you also sure they are on the list that chui released for the original mame4all that this is a port of.

just asking don't bite my head off if you ok

just wondering thats all

mame4all based on 0.34 or 0.35 is not the best place to start in the first place. mame is up to about
1.07 as far as i remember.

cheers

pspcross.

also here's the dat file for this if anyone needs it

(cheers joe for the info on this too)

jolley joeIf you don't whant mi help don't ask for mi help if your goign to try to scorch me. Second pspcross im not trying to pretend that im taking kechs glory i am in no fact involve with his project to get this clear. The list he put out is the compatibilitie list gor the GP2 and because a game is not there it doesnt mean it wont work. I posted a list of games that work for me using his great emulator. Like i sayd i dont expect the games to work for everybody. But if you really want a game keep on serching i really wanted street fighter and it took me over 20 different sites to find one that worked. But i notice here if you try to help and other players cant get it to work is mi folt. So to fix that since i cant tell people where to go download them i will just keep the list and games to mi self.
Great job to KECH for making all this games possible on the PSP
And Chui for his great work also and yes the list in this emulator is based on the GP2X and if you guys want thoes games they work great on it.

[alleyal202]

yo why does newer games work on this emulator and stuff like tron,batman, and stuff like that doesnt work.

who said anything about stealing kechs glory ??

my point was just that this emu was based on an old version of mame in the first place.

so alot of games by default will not run on it.

don't get your knickers in a twist mate.

keep up the list ( have you got a working version of bubble bobble by the way ???)

see ya

[YourStillWithMe]

uhh does Star Was Trilogy, TMNT (4 player) Soul Calibur or Simpsons 4 player work? thats all i care about. also where the heck do the roms go and how does this work? i feel so nooby i know how to work everything but this damn emulator bochs and al that other stuff i know how to use but dont get this for some mystical reason. . .

[JollyJoe]

i just tried this and its for the gp2x not psp mame

don't waste your time with it.


wrong it works just fine. it is the one i used to get roms running for me.

and this emu is based on the gpx emu for mame so obviously it works.

so just because you didn't get it work.

oh,and just so you know there isn't a dat that only works for psp mame. if that were the case no dat would work.

[JollyJoe]

acidburn,if want to act like a bitch,then go ahead. Nobody was critizing you. I was simply making a point.

[Gameguy241]

can someone explain this mame install step by step please

[dropdeadfred]

Howdy. I need some help, please.

I just got a PSP v2.01. Is it possible for me to get this emulator working and if so how. My problem is I hadn't even seen a PSP until the other day and know NOTHING about homebrew. I did get myself a copy of GTA:Liberty City as that seems to be helpful in getting a lot of stuff working.

Can someone give me a brief run down of what I need to do?

Thanks!

[dropdeadfred]

Howdy. I need some help, please.

Nevermind. Looks like I just had to create a GAME directory that didn't already exist. Now to find my roms...

[ACID]

acidburn,if want to act like a bitch,then go ahead. Nobody was critizing you. I was simply making a point.

Im not acting like a b**** im stating that the list is a gp2x list of mame games working for it. remember it is twice as fast then the psp so it will support more games at this stage And nobody sayd the dat file was for psp its to conver the roms to a version .34 / .35 witch this emulator is based on

pspcross i will look to see if theres a buble boole rom that works;)

[pspcross]

wrong it works just fine. it is the one i used to get roms running for me.

and this emu is based on the gpx emu for mame so obviously it works.

so just because you didn't get it work.

oh,and just so you know there isn't a dat that only works for psp mame. if that were the case no dat would work.

ok then heres the thing i used this dat file.

i took the games which showed as working and then installed these in mame. hey presto they didn't work.

now if the dat files said these roms are good to go why don't they work then.

probablt because the dat is for gp2x which has more ram than the psp. thats my guess.

so tell me where i am going wrong then with this dat file.

and why can't there be one for psp???

this one is for gp2x so why not psp ????

cheers

[JollyJoe]

maybe if you used the dat with clrmamepro to rebuild your roms first I bet they'd work. Because it sounds to me like you didn't.

But what do I know,i've only rebuilt 60 or more roms from acidburn's with it.

[Gazz021]

gameguy,download mame4all and put on to psp like you would other emu's.Put your mame roms in the roms folder(check list to c whats working) you also need mame bios which u can google search and put them in the roms folder zipped. Pac land works but no sound. Ghouls and Ghost world set working with sound

[B-RAD]

Im new how do u download it do u put it in the game folder im CONFUSED!!!! lol

[B-RAD]

I put it in the game folder and it came up as corrupted data wut do i do:confused:

[B-RAD]

Gazz wuts an emu and wut rom folder???

[dropdeadfred]

can someone explain how to install mame on the psp step by step i am confuse

Ok. I will give this a shot since I just barely figured it out and I am a complete PSP/EMU noob. This is what worked for me at least.

1. Get an eloader. Depending on what firmware version you have you might need a copy of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. When I tried mame4all without an eloader I get a corrupted data error, or one version would run but didn't work. The eloader I used was eLoader v0.97 "bock" from http://www.fanjita.org/. Here's the readme: http://files.fanjita.org/psp/readme.txt

2. Once you have the eloader installed and working get the correct version of mame4for your firmware and put in on your memory stick. It needs to be in a /PSP/GAME/MAME4ALL folder.

3. Once mame4all is in place follow the instructions for your firmware in the readme from step one. Select mame4all from the menu and pick a game from the list of roms in your rom directory. If you don't know if enough about mame to know what roms and your rom directory is then there is plenty of stuff to help you out there.


That's what worked for me. Maybe you don't have to do it with an eloader, but that's what worked for me.

[dropdeadfred]

Now, hopefully someone cal help me out. How do you leave a game once you've started it. I can play a rom just fine, but don't know how to get back to the MAME4ALL game list without rebooting.

Thanks!

First post and is a bad one allready read the rules. No asking for roms or websites to roms. Your best bet is to edit this an hope the mods dont rip you a new one.:rolleyes:

[shroud]

I'm really excited to see an upgrade of Mame for the PSP. The games that do work, seem to work well for the most part, however I was a little disappointed to see that Time Pilot which is a very old game run extremely slow.
Hoping to see some more optimization for the next release but very happy that someone is working hard to port this to the PSP.

[Bonez]

Umm question I just downloaded the MAME application for my 1.5 psp and I downloaded roms for it and It says that no available games found. Ok I wanted to know if the roms I downloaded were good I download Xmen and it has like 7 different files in it and I put them in the rom folder can someone help me please

Xmen does not work on this version of mame (its not supported).

They have to be .rom but you cant rename the zippet file eather.

[carpy]

They have to be .rom but you cant rename the zippet file eather.

That's completely wrong.

There's no such thing as a "zippet" file, it's a zip file.

You shouldn't rename the zip file.

The files within the zip file have many varying filenames, depending upon the game. Very few actually have a .rom file extension. Most are named for the chipset they are dumped from.

Ok nube great way to start making friends in this forume. He asked what file do they come in they come in different files. I understand that but if you sit back and figure what is most compatible been that they are in a .34 &.35 mame format the ones i mention witch have an extention of .rom are the most compatible. Yes they have alot of variables he whants the extention.:mad:

[kimo96817]

I have a PSP with 1.5fw and tried to use the MAME4ALLPSP file. Everytime I try to load the roms, all I get is "ERROR: NO AVAILABLE GAMES FOUND". I found the NEO-GEO bios with Neo-Geo.rom, ng-lo.rom, ng-sfix.rom, ng-sm1.rom and placed it in the folder. I also got roms that were on a list of roms that are suppose to work. I have also tried checking the previous pages of this thread for info on how to set it up and what I might be doing wrong. Any suggestions. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Flameing is when you dissrespect another user. Therefor the rule is if you cant treat ALL users with respect then dont post, when this rule is broken its called flameing. And we mods have to clean up the mess. I hope you guys realize how much respect and trust ive invested into you guys to trust you to do that, without haveing to give out banns, So clean them up or I will be forced to do somthing I really dont wanna do.....

Duely noted.

In all honesty, did you see anything in my first post here that looked like I was flaming him?

All I did was make sure that the person who asked the question about rom names and placement knew that acidburn was giving him bad information. I am here to help when I can, and learn when I don't know.

Acid decided to get all huffy puffy about it. If his problem of posting unintelligible jibberish and bad information is due to him not sleeping for 24 hours as he claims, then maybe he should go to bed and come back when he's better rested.

[ACID]

Got your massage shadow. Its mi fault shouldn't have let a new member get the best of me.

English is not Acidburn05's first language (according to him) so give him a break. I'd hate to lock a news post for such a stupid fight.

@Acidburn05: Your not making your life easier by baiting others to flame you. Don't reply with a post such as post #154. He was simply correcting you, and he wasn't trying to insult you in any way with his first reply.

2. My Hi Scores save automatically(or at least when I play Robocop) I don't know,but maybe you can get acidburn to tell you how to do it,since he claims to be the thread expert.

[delt31]

ok so i have been trying to getting double dragon 1 to work after it was confirmed on maxconsole. Is this game DEF not working??? if it is please let me know what i am doing wrong

everything else works

[repuken2]

You must have ddragon.zip and ddragonb.zip , the original and the bootleg.

use double dragon bootleg set, the other one hangs.Works perfect for me.

Good luck.

[delt31]

are you saying i need both, or just use the bootleg version to play??? which is just ddoubleb.zip?

EDIT - I GOT IT TO WORK!!! thanks!

only issue is it's really slow and the sound is garbled. Is there any settings to make it faster??? can you change the cpu speed???

[Zombo]

Don't worry mashimon Im having the same problems with Final Fight,Even when I press start nothing happens,either that or it just ends instantly.Also does anyone else have trouble with Rampage?

[BadBoy House]

shame you cant have the sound on in some games coz it slows everything down too much.

is there any way of upping the processor?

[ACID]

thank you.

[Kramer]

hey just downloaded this can anyone reccomend some good games

[nigels]

WOW, this is really frustrating.

I have tried a rom from 5 sites now (all of them around 37K) and they all result in a blank screen. I am using a FW1.5 PSP. Are those who are getting Elevator Action running using a later FW version? otherwise I can't for the life of me see whats going wrong here. Pacman, Galaga etc etc etc are all running fine. The analogue pad works fine in other games as well, so I am definately rtunning the 0.0.3 version of MAME4ALL.

Elevator Action is the ONLY game I really wanted to play via MAME4ALL so this is really frustrating

Yep I found the problem and got it working. There is one ROM ba3.11 that has a bunch of zeros appended to the start of it which is why it is 2048 long instead of 1920. If you delete those extra bytes from the start of the file with a binary editor it will work with MAME4ALL on the PSP.

[knuxtaben]

cool!!!!!! this is awesome!

[Zombo]

thank you.
but I couldn't.

I tryed some other virsion of ffight and jp,us version.
I can't continue:(

In what version of final fight rom can I continue??:confused:

Sadly I think all versions of Final Fight do this.:(

[subcomander]

i finally got it to work. yay.

[cylonwar]

Good news, Star Wars works and didn't make the list; my problem is that Empire Strikes Back also works but freezes within 3 seconds of gameplay. StarWars will only work if it is capitalized in word: STARWARS; Empire won't work as esb (as it is named in the rom) rename it in capitalized letters, rom will run but won't play. My point is that can mame4allpsp run non-listed games all depending on how they're named?

[ACID]

cylonwar the answer is no. The processor used for this reads the games that are meant to be played by it there for it the games have to be left with there original names unless KETCH rewrites it otherwise.

[animemeisters]

I wonder when Outrun(Arcade) is going to be emulated..Still love that game:rolleyes:

[ACID]

I wonder when Outrun(Arcade) is going to be emulated..Still love that game:rolleyes:
If im not mistaking its a system 16 game and almost 7mb i think mame wont supported now or ever unless kech modifies some stuff to make it work.

[fucht017]

Maybe they can make a outrun only Emulator...just a suggestion.;)

[EMUMFER]

Yeah it doesn't work some Roms don't work you cant do some functions or just cant add quarters

CAN'T INSERT CREDITS:
A lot of games work, but I can't play them.
1. Is there a tutorial, guide, faq for this version?
2. Which button is used to insert credits?
3. Can someone please give directions to remap
the buttons?

Thank You in Advance,
:o

[EMUMFER]

2 questions:-

1. How do you insert credits in mr dos castle? (select doesnt do anything)

2. How do you get mame4all to save your high scores??


SAME FOR ME...
Can someone please give us some help with this?

Thanks

[Baboon]

I haven’t got my PSP with me so I cant check but...

1) Not that I’m aware of.
2) Press ‘select’ to insert credits, then hit start to play (there are a few games though that load the rom, but will not let you insert coins to play).
3) Its a mare trying to reconfig the buttons, I haven’t sussed it yet... good luck.

Also you cant save high scores because there isnt an option to do it.


I would advise on the options configuration, setting the screen to ‘HW scaled’ as this give you a full screen when playing the games.

Hope that helps? :D

[Mr. Shizzy]

Has ANYONE gotten TAPPER to work?

[jerutyaj]

[SweetFA]

Put the .zip in the folder, don't extract the files.

[jerutyaj]

did that it still says no games are found

[SweetFA]

did that it still says no games are found
Only supported games show up.
Try some others.

[roy5]

does it work on 2.7+

[roy5]

i downt think so but i was just wondering

[roy5]

does it work on 2.7+

[Pumped'Up]

Man too bad we haven't seen a decent MAME emulator for PSP. This one is below average because although excluding CPS1, there are tonnes of games that are supported...and those are the old old 80's games. The menu system is also in pretty rough shape...

I just hope the developer hasn't given up on this baby as it can be a top emulator like NJ's work.

[orrange23]

i'm sorry if this has been asked a million times maybe but i've searched this forums but i didn't get the answers.
i've download the latest version of mame4all for fw2.xx and theres only one file inside the EBOOT and tried to load it via eloader but all i can see is the ROMS folder which created in the PSP/GAME/MAME4ALL/ROMS and nothings happening.
Is there suppose to be other files here needed? like bios or something...

[Gazz021]

Hi orrange23, You do need mame bios which you can google search for.Put them in the Roms folder zipped.So far I've only have working at full speed,Ghouls and ghosts,Pac-land and Ace carrier wings.

[Sanaki]

THXTHX^^

Good job

*enjoy*

[jurkevicz]

I hope they release a new version soon.

[bah]

Has anyone had any luck getting simpsons arcade to run?
Im not sure if its my naming of the rom or if its not supported at this time.

[pibs]

i downloaded it and just read the post that said marvel vs capcom does not work so now i know its not the roms that don't work its just the emu is not capable of runing it yet

[koroshiya1]

Is there any reason I can't download the files ?

(Mac G5 + Firefox) (tried safari too)

[pkmaximum]

Man just stick to NJ's work on NEO GEO, NEO GEO CD, CPS-1, CPS-2. They nearly run full speed on every rom, with great sound quality. And they are still updated at a good rate. Were this emulator is clearly dead.

[darkmanx]

how do i get it to run games
i,m havin a prblem with it running "wrestling super star"

[darkmanx]

i.m having a problem i have a 1.5 psp and i cant get mame 4 all to run "super star wrestling" it keeps sayin theres no game and it freezes and gos back to my psp menu can some help

[pkmaximum]

Don't double post, and I'll say it again.

Stick to NJ's work.

[darkmanx]

whats nj's work ???

[darkmanx]

sorry but where do i find nj;s work???

[pspcross]

nj is the coder who did all the neogeo and
cps1 and 2 stuff.

for capcom games use these instead they are far better.

most stuff for mame doesn't run on mameforall
anyway.

it was a crappy place to start when doing a port

[ACID]

Video converter for ???:confused:

[Baboon]

I wonder if this emulator is now dead? ...I hope not??

We havent heard of any progress or information to say that their still working on this emulator. I was hoping we might have some more compatibility with a just few more games?

Dont get me wrong though, I'm very happy with Shinobi, Golden Axe, Robocop and Ghosts n Goblins... its just that this emu has the possibility to do so much more. If this is as far as Mame4all can go then I really hope that someone will take on NJs work that he's releasing and make just a few more classic arcade games run perfect on the psp? ...fingers crossed ! :)

[darkmanx]

video converter for psp-i-pod-dvd all in the same program

[darkmanx]

yo how do you put a picture under your sreen name

I also feel the same Baboon >_< As you said it feels it could just do so much more but the games are just full of glitches and have a low compatibility rate.Makes me just want to get a GP2X Right now.;)

[darkmanx]

thank gus for all your information but i,ll wait unto a more up to date verison of mame come out that runs all game , can this be possiable???>> all games<

[Megaman Fanboy]

can anyone tell me how to get son son working as it says "error reading roms" when the same zip file works on mame for the pc

[Dare Devil Denis]

Hello. I'm very pleased that most of the games I've tried work fine. I'm only interested in stuff before 1985 though! (I'm showing my age!).

Question: Star Force (the best shoot-em-up from the 80's IMHO) plays ok but the sound is just clicks and pops. Has anyone got Star Force working with good sound? (I tried 6 different web sites without success - couldn't find the "German" site that Acidburn mentioned).

Thanks,
DDD.

[thewizard]

nice :)

[the viper]

Thanks! u r the best......
<<<<<<.>>>>>>>

[pkmaximum]

I'm pretty sure this emulator has come and died. Just stick to NJ's work on NEO GEO, NEO GEO CD, CPS-1, and CPS-2. They run very efficiently for almost every game and with sound. NEO GEO, though doesn't run the bigger games with sound. But they do run ^_^

[mlcurly16]

Any readme for this by any chance? I got it to run on 1.5, I just can't get the controls working :D

[kamuixtv]

Is there a compatibility list? When I start the emu it say no roms found. can it load zip roms? Can someone help me please.

[JKKDARK]

yeah, nice job :)

[iratus7]

I want to play nba hangtime,all metal slugs.mirtal kombat 3 on mame psp but they don't work.Do anyone have an idea what to do?

[daDarkxide]

[manrayboy]

nice i like that

[xed00]

hello. i got success running mame4all on my 2.8 with eloader 0.995 but the home key does nothing so i need to off the psp then power on any time i want to change the rom.
any solution?

[Baboon]

I dont think you can. When I first had my psp when it was on 2.6 I was running eloader (via GTA using mame4all) and the only way I could do it was by reseting the machine... which is a pain cause when I was testing the games when the emu first came out it took forever! :(

...I'm guesing with the new eloader for 2.8 it might have the same problem? ...I could be wrong though?

You might find more info on the official eloader site: http://www.noobz.eu/

[Darius1988]

I can't get this to work on my 2.80 psp.
Any ideas on how to get it to work?.

[xed00]

I can't get this to work on my 2.80 psp.
Any ideas on how to get it to work?.

it works for me, grab the 003 version you can find on the 1st post then be sure to use eloader (not xloader)
next step is to try the included rom 1941.zip, if it works then add some new roms but beware, not all games are supported and they must be in mame 0.34 format (2 year ago if i recall)
unluckly the home key,wich was supposed to be the key to return at the main menu don't work as expected so you need to off the psp every time you want to swap a rom.

[Panini]

This emulator had so much potential for the PSP, then the coder Kech just disapeared off the face of the earth abandoning the project. :(

[doomex]

well a lot of games doesnt work like shinobi, golden axe, double dragon etc we need a update

[Baboon]

well a lot of games doesnt work like shinobi, golden axe, double dragon etc we need a update

Well you must be doing something wrong cause all of those games work fine for me! :)

[doomex]

it´s a nighmare to get the roms working, it will be nice if someone put a list with the correct versions of the roms, well shinobi took me almost an hour and golden axe don´t want to get started

[mikebeaver]
