I downloaded the 2 recent files from the author's website. The 2 folders, one having '1st_read' and 'readme', the other having a bunch of folders, .bin files and notepads.

Can someone explain what i'm supposed to do, like where my games go for one...

Hey I just got in the DC scene about 2 months ago. But I have figured out most of the answers to the problems your having. If you need help, I can help you over AIM. Just give me a PM and i'll give you my username. I know how hard it is tring to figure everything out on your own. There just doesn't seem to be a ton of people still around in the DC scene any more. Well at least not like the psp scene.

use boot dreams to make the neo4all disc

Neo4all acts like a boot disc, you put it in first and the swap the game disc after it loads.

Thanks but I already know how to run BootDreams and burn a cd with DiscJuggler. My problem is I don't know how to run Neo4all(CD) and how to make a Neo4all disc using only the files I downloaded from chui's website.

ok i think i under stand the confusion, you only need "RC-1 Binary" the rest are older version (that why "RC-1 Binary" is in bold)

in there there is a 1st_read.bin, follow the bootdreams guide to make the disc

our local downloads http://dreamcast.dcemu.co.uk/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi has every homebrew release and and the most latest version of each release

ok i have '1st_read' and 'readme' in this neo4all folder. is this all i need? do i just place my unzipped games in this same folder and then create an image with BootDreams? will i need that NeoCD bios file?

yeah you need the bios, i forgot. As i said NEO4ALL is a boot disc, you have to swap discs, you can't put them on the same disc.
