Help with XMame!

[paradroid]

I've changed the driver to match what James has pasted above, and recompiled. Samurai Shodown 5 Special loads without errors, but it still hangs at the red warning text screen.

 

So is it that m1d ROM that's causing the problem or something else in my edited version of the driver?

 

I can upload my XMame binary if it can be used to diagnose the problem...

The red text show because the P1 is protected. It's work in Console Mode, but you'll need the Universe BIOS if you want to play in Arcade Mode.

Robert your SHA1 is wrong.

Not my file; it's paradroid's. My rom matches your file.

Find this in machine\neogeo.c

 /* hacks to make the games which do protection checks run in arcade mode */
/* we write protect a SRAM location so it cannot be set to 1 */
sram_protection_hack = ~0;
if (	!strcmp(Machine->gamedrv->name,"fatfury3") ||

 

 

add this after

!strcmp(Machine->gamedrv->name,"samsh5sp") ||

 

Make sure you do a clean compile ( Delete the OBJ folder )

OK... I've added the uni-bios to neogeo.zip. CRC and files within neogeo.zip as follows:

 

e09e253c 000-lo.lo

d27a71f1 aes-bios.bin

91b64be3 asia-s3.rom

698ebb7d neodebug.rom

354029fc sfix.sfx

97cf998b sm1.sm1

2723a5b5 sp-e.sp1

acede59c sp-j2.rom

c7f2fa45 sp-s.sp1

9036d879 sp-s2.sp1

9fb0abe4 sp1.jipan.1024

0ce453a0 uni-bios.10

5dda0d84 uni-bios.11

4fa698e9 uni-bios.12

b24b44a0 uni-bios.13

0c12c2ad uni-bios.20

e72943de usa_2slt.bin

f0e8f27d vs-bios.rom

 

Then I've added James' code into src/machine/neogeo.c, and did a fresh compile. There were no errors during compilation or emulation startup, but it is still hanging at the warning text screen. The contents of my samsh5sp.zip as follows:

 

4f97661a 272-c1.bin

a3afda4f 272-c2.bin

8c3c7502 272-c3.bin

What else is left to try out?

[James]

Delete the samsh5sp.nv from the nvram folder.

And no the uni bios is not needed to play it in arcade mode.

[paradroid]

Thanks for all the help everyone... Samurai Shodown 5 Special now works!

 

Anyone able to help on the CRC problems for SVC Chaos etc?

It may help you out.

Is that a MAME-only thing or did I miss something?

Mame and FBA. Also there is a Fully decrypted Rom that plays in Arcade mode without the need of the uni bios.
