NeoDS - Neo Geo AES/MVS Emulator for Nintendo DS

I'm curious if the .neo files created using the current converter will work in future releases, or should I keep the backup .zip files on hand in case I need to re-convert for future NeoDS releases?

Keep your .zip files. The *.neo format may change in future releases.

Just played (and lost) the first level of KOF98 on my M3 DS Simply so that one seems to be good.

None of the World Heroes games (wh1, wh2, wh2j and whp) are playable yet (using -bios1) as they crash after their intros or character selection.

As mentioned Metal Slug X and Blazing Star are also good on this amazing first release.

can anyone tell me what the newest NEOGEO bios is? I found one that was from 1990 and one that was all .rom files... (anyone know where I could locate the Bios?)

OK, here's my issue with the emulator

Card: R4DS

ROMs Used: KOF94, Metal Slug, Blazing Star

Bios Used: I dunno, I just stuck the whole folder

Steps I Took:

I created a special folder used to covert the Neo Geo ROMs. In that folder, I put the converter and the entire Neo Geo BIOS zip file in there. I put some of the game ROMs and managed to succesfully convert them to .neo files. Also, these were MAME-compatible ROMs as well.

I then stuck the converted game ROMs into the root directory of my R4 along with the emulator.

I tried it out, and the emulator loads up just fine, but the games just don't load up for some reason. All I see is a black top screen.

Also, I'm wondering if there's anything I need to put on my flash card, besides the emulator and the ROMs?

First of all:
Ingramb, you are my hero. You've made a dream come true.

I have 2 flashcards:
- CycloDS Evolution: runs easy, no need to patch DLDI.
- Supercard SD (slot2): tried with auto-DLDI function, tried to patch with Chishm version of DLDI and tried to patch with Moonlight version. It worked for me only after I patched with Chishm DLDI and deleted the dldi.scp (the auto dldi file from Supercard) from my SD.

Tested the following games:
King of Fighters 94: perfect
King of Fighters 98: perfect
Metal Slug: slowdown on crowded screens and freezes when uses granades
Metal Slug X: perfect, only slowdown on crowded screens
Sonic Wings 2: perfect, but sound freezes
Sonic Wings 3: perfect, but sound freezes
Ghost Pilot: perfect
Overtop: perfect
Mutant Nation: perfect
Robo Army: perfect
Neo Drift Out: Freezes when the game will start.

Convert your roms with the parameter -bios1
Start the converter from the commandline.

Sc lite (no rumble) : patched the NeoDs.nds with sclt.dldi found on chishm and with scsd_moon.dldi (desperatedly trying)

Executed NeoDs.nds from sc's menu and from moonshell -> top screen is white, bottom screen is black
