sweet which version of the BIOS does this require?

[ACID]

It still uses the same bios as the last 3 releases. NJ you rule great job.:D

[JKKDARK]

amazing emu :D

[Voltron]

Awesome. Definitely one of my favorite EMU's. I'm excited to see how the state save/load works. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing. Great work once again NJ.

[cdrdj]

How is the speed for this? is it almost perfect like the neogeo cd emu?

[Mr. Shizzy]

It still uses the same bios as the last 3 releases. NJ you rule great job.:D


I've never used the neogeo emu before bro. All I wanna know is it the neogeo.zip bio or the universal bio ect...:confused:

[SINIStER]

I've never used the neogeo emu before bro. All I wanna know is it the neogeo.zip bio or the universal bio ect...:confused:
You can use either one or both just drag n drop the uni-bios into the neogeo.zip and in the emu you can click the L button to choose the desired bios.

[Mr. Shizzy]

Awesome, thanks. Would it improve rom compatibility
to "blend" the BIOS?

[hockey2112]

I have trouble loading the roms on my 2.0 PSP with this program. I have the neogeo.zip bios, but my PSP always freezes up on me after I select the bios and try to run the rom.

I have followed the directions for the rom chache thing and all too. Can anyone help? Is there a certain bios I should be selecting? I am trying to play Metal Slug 5 and Metal Slug x. Thanks!

[D0N]

Great work NJ! Even though it is just a minor update at least it shows how hard he is working.

[Voltron]

Yeah, I thought NJ had expressed a loss of interest in this EMU in favor of advancing Neo CDZ even further. This shows how dedicated he is to his project and all of us appreciative homebrew junkies.

I actually prefer this EMU because of the higher quantity/variety of games available. Also sizes are MUCH smaller compared to Neo CDZ version of the same game.

Neo CDZ is more advanced though and performs at an unbelievable level.

could someone please answer this question?

[ACID]

could someone please answer this question?

[ank]

Hey guys wasssup,I have the same problem with bumfacekilla about the crc error.Just wondering can u guys help us about that problem.And also what is the difference between the neo geo cd and the stardard neo geo.Is the graphics in the neo geo cd much better?I ask cause the file in the neo geo cd is much bigger than the regular one.

[shishioh]

Dude,i have the same messegages on my psp when i try to start it. Bump.

[pkmaximum]

This emulator is great the only problem is most of the games don't have sound.... But I'm still glad to see games like snk vs. capcom works great =O

[shishioh]

Please Help With This Problem.

[grit]

A little off-topic but just to let you know:

do you got the right bios??

i dont know i havent tried this, i was just looking into it im gonna try this emu out. i hope all the later metal slugs work on this.

[dn3000]

Can someone make a tutorial for this nothing works for me! :(

[subcomander]

im also having some trouble i found the bios file and uni bios and put them in the rom file on ngepsp. i also converted my roms. the game is Samurai Shodown. when i go to the menu try and sart the game and it says bios not found. oh im in 1.5. Can anyone PLZ help.

[SteveV2]

Ok, I only put this on my PSP earlier today for the 1st time and I too got an error. Can't remember what it was so I went back to the zip contents and used the rom converter and stuck that on the MS but it was in the menu but red so couldn't play it.

Then I went back again and put that file in the cache folder and the rom in the rom folder (so the was a convered one and the actual one) and it worked.

Also do you guys/gals have MAME on your pc? Go into the roms dir and look for the zip called neogeo. That was put in the rom folder on the MS too.

It was Metal Slug X BTW, and it runs but with no sound.

Nice emu too, good work NJ :)

[nofx_135]

im new to this emulator psp stuff
like how do i get a snes emulator and roms into my psp (vers. 2.6)

[ukcuf16]

Could someonew tell me how to instal this thing or direct me to some instructions on how to get it working

[PSPCRACKER]

nice gona try it out now

[subcomander]

yay i finally got it. the problom for me was i had the wrong neo geo bios file. this emu ROCKS!!!

[Largo_W]

Call me a full noob but I cant get this to work. A few (about 2 or 3) work, the rest has different errors, including crc errors. But the zips work fine with neogeorage x 0.8c, so im very worried. Ive got the european bios 2.0.

[ACID]

the ones that dont work you need to use the cache file to convert and then place bouth roms and extension in there proper folders in the emu

[Largo_W]

That doesnt work. I even get errors while trying to convert (namely Metal Slug 1).
I had "converted" MSlug 2, put the cache file into the cache folder and the rom and the bios in the roms folder. But the Emu crashes while loading.

Oh, btw, FW is 1.5, bought mine with 1.52.

Edit: crashes fits better than stop. the psp gets black, then it returns to bootscreen.

edit the second:
-NeoGeo Emu 0.2.2 is out, check page of Developer
-ErrorMessage with Mslug1: cannot load (c) rom (@converter), in emulator cannot load [~Region, same error as mentioned above my posts], Sound works( press [] )
-ErrorMessage with Mslug2: cannot load Sound (s1), soundcheck (pressing[], does not work)

i am suffering great pain. Please help :(

[subcomander]

try downloading it again but dont change the name. it works fine for me. it has sound and also good speed.


u can also try playing it with neogeo CD.
o.k. im willing to help anyone just P.M. me and
tell me what ur having troubls with. ill try to help.

[V3N0M]

It seems many questions were asked and no one answered them. I'll try to figure out how to get this to work and then explain it. Unless someone else can explain how to get it to work.

[Broadus]

So nobody knows what the GFX3 error is about?
I mean, lot's of people complained about it, taking away any point in ME complaining about it. This seems like one of those things somebody would know about how to fix.

[ACID]

The games that say this are the games you need to use the attached cache file to convert the game and if it still doesnt work then its the rom set. I got all the neogeo games to work for this emu so i know they work.:D

As for the GFX its what its used to run the sprites witch is what the cache file helps you do:D

[Broadus]

Oh, wow! Thanks a lot! I finally get it!
You leave the original, unmodified (romname).zip in the roms directory... And the (romname)_cache.zip in the cache directory. And it works perfectly!
And it runs great, too! Woo!
Thanks a bunch.

[ACID]

No problem

[Broadus]

Some games don't have sound. Why is that?
The only games I've played on this emulator are Metal Slug 1-5 (and X). 3, 4 and 5 don't have any audio.

[publicprivates]

theyre too big for sound to play so its auto no sound.

[Broadus]

Oh. Fair enough.

[Alucard]

I have asked this a couple of times here, with no real answer, but could some confirm for me that they are getting crashes in Metal Slug 4 on the first level during the motorcycle part.

I have tried many many different roms. I have tried different bios. Always crash in the same board, but at random locations.

It even crashed on my friends PSP, but that was the rom and emu I gave him. So I want to make sure this is the case.

BTW... there is a way around, but you can't play that part of the board. You would have to take another route.

[Ewin]

AcidBurn05.
n00b question.
About romsets.
Specifically Metal Slug 1.
I try to convert a sprite cache for it, when i get the "C ROM" error message.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
I have no idea what to do....hell i don't even know what a set is.
I got Metal Slug 2 working...but i need 1!

Your Metal Slug 1 romset might be corrupt/incomplete/unfinished/old. Try to find another Meter Slug 1 romset and try caching it again.

No thanks to those people who knew the answer but to selfish to share them.

[nowelskeee]

i have the

-uni-bios.rom (placed it in roms folder)
-a mvsc.zip file (now what will i do with it?)

i realy dont know how to make this work... pls help... tnx..

[Broadus]

Marvel versus Capcom won't work, because it's not a Neo-Geo game.
Yes, I'm an idiot, I already tried.

[nowelskeee]

okok.. tnx...
i made the bios work by the neogeo.zip file and included the uni-bios.

from what i have seen from other forums, i get the roms on *******.net then il go to the mame section not on the neogeo section....? which rom will i use and how will i know its compatible with the nj? im sory for asking such questions but im really a noob. tnx..

[donne]

Did anybody knows how can I get to the operator menu (that option to change coins, levels, etc ?)

[Largo_W]

@nowelskeee

the pspneogeo emulator checks the checksum, the pc emulators checks the name of the rom (mostly, i think NeoGeoRage does). So you have to find the rom with the correct checksum, thats all. oh and it must be in "the list". its a textfile inside the "ngepsp" folder

[nowelskeee]

okok... so this is what im gona do, i download a rom, (e.g mslug) in which section? mame or neogeo?

*im gona download the rom on the famous r**h******.net

tnx..

[nowelskeee]

now a new problem...

when i convert mslug.zip, i get error,

ERROR: could not load sprite rom <c rom>

what is that and what am i gona do to make this work?

[donne]

Hey I encountered almost the same trouble, strange thing is, those roms worked on neogeorage.. I wonder why.. Perhaps an incomplete rom set ?

[Largo_W]

no the rom is corrupt, try another server and try the neogeo section. dont use the page u said, try google for "mslug1.zip" . There is a good polish fansite for mslug by the way, with sprites, story and pics of the arcade versions. something with ply in the URL, dont know annymore. there are also the roms for alle Mslugs. even the Ngepocket and mobile version.

Why even bring that web site up here. They help even less and more then likely got the tutorial from somewere else.

[donne]

Agree.. I don't get any information I have not know.. Like.. How's the hell to change the Difficulty Level ?? I'm blaming that PSP bad controller, you hear ?? I'm not old ! I'm not old !

[ACID]

Just press triangle or R to get to the menu.

[donne]

Huh ? Is that right ? But isn't triangle a usable action button ? Oh ok.. Thanks Acidburn. Now it's my turn to kick Yuri's little b---.. And I'll tell Motoko to put you in his/her Hero List ;)

[redjchristian_2five@]

NJ can u pliz help me metal slug did not work in my neogeo beta4 psp 1.5

[crimsonreject]

i need help

[crimsonreject]

everytime i try playing king of fighters 2003 it says file not found 'Cpu1 (prom) what do i do to fix this? or when i play kof2002 it says filenot found cpu2 why does it say that?

[Largo_W]

your kof roms are broken. i think there are at least three different types of files:
1. crom for graphics
2. prom for program itsself
3. srom for sound

the crom can be cached in a single file with the program inside the archive, so the PSP doesnt have to load the hole game in the memory ( which is mostly impossible, due big files)
So.. IF there is an error with one of the rom files - the game is broken. try another one. And be sure that it is in the compatibilitylist !
try google -> Language Tools -> Translate whole page (or so) and insert the URL of the inventor of this emulator.
You will find many information about it there ;)

[shedeus]

This emu is working wonderfully on 2.71 with eloader 0.99. Unbelievable how well it runs!

Only problem I'm having is with any ROMs requiring the use of the cache file. Getting a GFX3 sprite cache error even with correct placement of both rom and cache files.


ERROR: Could not allocate REGION_GFX3 memory.
Try to use sprite cache...
ERROR: File not found. "spr_usage (GFX3 usage)"

Any thoughts on why all ROMs without caches work fine but none of the converted ROMs do? I'm using the latest converter version 0.4

[ramzak]

what is the use of the converter?

[ramzak]

could some one help me set this up add me in my msn

[ramzak]

ohhh i finaly got the emu to work XD but no sound in kof2000....can anyone list all the games with sound and if kof2000 does have a sound. can someone tell me how to fix this? after i am helped i will post the intrustions on how to set it up soo i can help all the other neopsp noobs out there in this forums

[jurkevicz]

[shedeus]

Is this emu full screen? im not on my pc so i cant dl it yet ><

you can configure it 1:1, zoom, zoom wide, fullscreen, etc.

so... yes. and it looks beautiful

I'm in the same boat as you. I can run the titles that don't need to be cached, but can't run any of titles that do require cachement. Kinda blows cause I'd love to run Shock Troopers 2 and the Metal Slugs.. Any idea on what I could be doing wrong? My firmware is 2.71, and I'm using eloader .99, and the neozip bios. I've downloaded the emu from the front of the page and am using the converter that comes with it which I believe is the latest version. Please help!

[Jmanultra]

The reason I can't run high meg Neo Geo MVS and Capcom CPS2 titles is because I'm using the TIFF method for 2.71. I happen to be loading my friend's PSP up for him with emus and roms, and he's got a 2.0 firmware so I put the Boch's eloader in which gives the user the option of using GTA as a boot method. Sure enough every game I can't get to boot(NEO or CPS2) fires right up in his system via GTA. Does anyone know if there's a GTA eloader option being worked on for us 2.71 users?
:)

[oyk918]

thanks man kof rules

[wusstown]

Can anyone help me? ive been trying to figure out which neo emu is the best for my psp and i'm having problems. i cant get the games to even load. where do i get the roms for this and where do i put them. anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

[HumanIce]

i really, truly sorry for bringing this back from the dead o.o and i registered to ask this.. it always goddamn says :
ERROR: could not allocate REGION_GFX3 memory.
Try to use sprite cache.. (i dont even know what that is!)
ERROR: file not found. spr_usage (GFX3 usage)

ive wasted 6 hours trying to find anything on google.. and just tell me what to do.. if you dont know where you got the bios, just put your emulator that works on zshare.net.. -_-
