Hi!

 

I just read a tons of threads here, but i'm a complete newbie in Neo Geo-Emulating. There was a time when i was kind of "in it", but that was 1-2 years ago. So i'm having a few problems here.

 

I want to play Metal Slug 5 and i've got the Kawaks 1.45 + Loader. Romsize is about 94 MB. While Metal Slug 4 just plays fine, he wont even find the Rom of mslug5. I have no clue what i could do about that!

 

Same problem for King of Fighters 2001. My Kawaks 1.50 just won't find it! The roms are all named like

2k1_c1.rom

2k1_c2.rom

and that seems to be wrong, but renaming won't fix the problem too.

 

Same Problem for King of Fighters 2002.

 

Do I have just wrong romsets or what's going on?

 

So, i would really appreciate if you could help me. Please excuse me if my english isn't that good - it's not my native language.

Hey :),

Did you add mslug5 to your loader's ".dat" file yet?

check the.dat thread at top of the forum for the info :blink:

Winkawaks 1.50 won't have those games in it since they aren't old enough. You have to use a loader to play them. Make sure you add the proper DATs to the ASR.DAT file.

Thank you so much! It all works now perfectly - thanks for your quick answers.

 

So, i downloaded KOF2003 today and then i looked for the dat-config as usual. On the first page of the thread there's a dat-file, which fits perfectly on the romset i got (two p1-files, all the crc's are right). But there's one problem - This [system]-Part is missing.

There's one second dat-config on the second page of the thread but using that one won't help. I also tried to copy the [system]-Part of the Second dat-file to the first one, but that won't change a thing.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks.

The System part for KOF2003 is as follows

 

[system]

CartridgeID: 271

GfxCrypt: 0

GfxKey: 0

ButLayout: 9

Fix: 0

 

Cart ID needs to matches the game in question, copying the value from another game doesn't work. That being said, KOF2003 is th 271st Neo-Geo game.

 

Well, there are some holes in the complete cart ID list, but it's more or less correct.

This is my Entry in the ASR.dat. The Game doesn't appear in the romlist. It only does if i use the other romdat for the fully decrypted version, which I don't have.

Change Neo to NEO. I hope you're using a Loader.

Yay, changing Neo into capital letters did the trick. It finally appears in the romlist.

 

So i loaded the rom...and just got a testscreen. ARGH....What's the problem now? Is the Rom corrupt?

Change the machine type to Console and try again.
