Emulator How to?

[~Legit~]

Ok ok, I know the rules now...I think !

So, hopefully I'm not breaking any of them this time by asking how to get an emulator to work on a console....Like if I wanted to put MAMEDC(the DC ported version of MAME)and my mame games onto a cdr and have it work on my dream cast..how would I go about doing that??? help plz

yes, I have, and I know how to mount an image of a game and burn it and get it to work..but an emulator is a .exe and the DC games that i burned are all cdi obviously...so how is burning the .exe directly to the disc through bootdreams or alcohol gonna work?

Your making a self boot disc... Basically when you put the disk in the dc it will mistake it for a original dc game... Sbi is good beacuse it gives you a gui to use... Um o think i have a link here...

after you download the sb inducer V4 Install it into its own directory Default will do.....

Then you want to find a Mame Emu sbi file inside there directory.... Download it and place the file inside the sbi folder in your selfboot inducer directory then follow the instructions on the second link...


Ps read the read me's If your a smart person you should be able to gather a lot of info from those....

This is my first attempt at helping out around here if any info or links are wrong someone please correct me...

??? - Read the tutorial again. You will need to install BootDreams to create your own CDs. Alcohol is only used to actually burn them.

Regarding MAME, I do recommend MAME4ALL over Mamed. Download it here:

Also, you can't expect to play all games that MAME for Windows supports. Please refer to the games listed in this article at DCS:
