Got a little further with kog. When it should show neogeo snk screen, it shows a crosshatch pattern instead, and stops. What does this mean?

Perhaps if someone can talk me through getting website watcher working again, then i'd be able to post some news. EDIT: nvm, I fixed it. Generally, I'm exhausted from work, and it's too damn hot and humid to do anything but sleep.

Yeah, that. Why is the set called 2k3 Ultra Plus, when it says 2k4 and no ultra. The EX isn't even mentioned.

I followed the instructions and it worked !! The title screen says King of Fighters 2004 EX @@ PLUS (the @ signs are really some asian characters)

Thankyou sir, I can see I was loading the c roms in the wrong order. Now, I've worked out the so-called "encryption" of the C roms - I found a suitable subroutine, and the graphics are now perfect. The p1 rom is the major obstacle as part of it appears to be encrypted. Booting up produces a red screen at the moment.

Today I've gotten svcboot to work, and I've added samsh5sp which is working as well. Spent the rest of the evening playing around with kog (King of Gladiator). Got the s rom worked out, but having trouble with the c roms - graphics are messed up.

I looked at that thread but I've obviously missed something... I'll take another look tomorrow. I found a driver for cthd2003, fixed the usual syntax errors, missing subroutines etc and it works well.

22 hours later and no response, oh well. I've gotten pnyaa, svcsplus and matrimbl working. Can someone please supply the machine\neogeo.c code (bankswitching etc) for svcboot, svcplus, svcplusa, svcchaos, svchaosa? Still no success with kof2003, can someone help me? (see previous post). Can someone post the driver for cthd2003? Thanks.

Link doesn't work.

Mame Plus If you right-click on a game, you can Enable Boss.

1. KOF96EVO - I had realised that the 2nd half of the p1 rom should not be loaded, and I'd got it working with a warning. Your solution is neater and I'll try it soon. 2. neopong - When the playfield appears, the whole computer freezes and has to be powered off/on. I copied exactly the mameplus code, it's quite straightforward, mystery. 3. samsho5 works. Kof2k2mp magic plus works. 4. svcchaos, svchaosa - i'm missing 269-m1d so bad luck for me 5. svcplus, svcplusa, svcsplus, svcboot - none of these work. I've just added your codes James (thanks very much!), and I'm about to compile now. *** EDIT EDIT EDIT *** 1. kof96evo works now without any warnings, yay! 2. Mslug5 works! 3. Pnyaa works! 4. KOF2003 - although the code all seems to be there it quite obviously doesn't work.

Actually, I had already done that but for some reason it didn't take. Now I get a black screen instead. Turned on the rom_load debug feature to assist me. I put all new code in for kof2003, still a black screen. Removed kof2003a, kof2003b, kof2k3up as I'm confused by the multitudes of different drivers and I don't have the roms anyway. Got kf2k4spe working after installing fet's driver. Diggerman and syscheck worked first go. Diggerman is a variation on boulderdash. Syscheck displays a couple of text messages (a waste of over 2 megs of roms). Now, the first thing to fix is mslug5. Here is my driver, what's wrong with it?

They are all clean compiles, and i'm making the command-line version. I've been a member there for long enough, may as well get some value out of it. Thanks!

Now I need help. 1. mslug5 when it's about to display the neogeo snk at the start, the game reboots 2. pochi & nyaa, my romset is totally different, but i got it to work, there's just a little graphics error, a diagonal line would be jagged instead. What should I look for? 3. Some other games (such as kof2003) just show a black screen instead of the neogeo logo at the start. 4. KOF96EVO - if I call the romset kof96 it works. But call it kof96evo and a protection screen appears. I've added the romset name to machine\neogeo.c, where kof96 and kof96h are. Still no joy. 5. The only thing that works right now is kof10th. Any help would be most appreciated.

Basically it's a remote-control tool, same idea as Carbon Copy, pcAnywhere, Remotely-Possible, and a whole pile of others. The good thing is that VNC is free. You start up VNCViewer, enter the IP address of the remote computer (and password if applicable), then you see the other computer's desktop. When you move the mouse it moves on the remote computer as well. When you type, the letters appear on the remote computer. It's just like you are there.
