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!

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.

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.

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

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.

Aleborri, 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.

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

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.

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

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

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 ;)
June 21st, 2006, 12:23
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 >_<

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
June 21st, 2006, 13:07
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.
June 21st, 2006, 14:04
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 :(
June 21st, 2006, 14:24
NovaKane

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

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??
June 21st, 2006, 15:20
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]

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 :(

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...

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

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

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 :)
