SenatorIvy Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 I only came across both of these about a week ago now. KawaX plus is not as good as KawaX SE to me. Rename all the roms to bin, and make sure they line up with the CRCs. Although I'm told the SE doesn't need the right CRCs, just the right sizes.

bbysknnr6 Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 Just do what i did, dont update your KawaX Plus. Just leave it and make a second Kawax folder on your box with SS5 in it. The kawax emu isnt that big so your not loosin much space at all and you have all your K Plus roms and SS5 running. Ninja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iori Posted December 26, 2003 Author Share Posted December 26, 2003 yes but the problem is that even if i'm tryin to match names and files of the kawa-x SE.txt for example in metal slug 4 i read that i need 263-m1d.bin -> 64 Kb, but in my rom the file is 263-m1.rom and it's bigger.........so could rename it to match the name on the txt but the dimension will be wrong........so do i have wrong romsets? i tried undread times to download different romsets with different sizes but it seem i can't find the right one.......so i think i'm misunderstanding something above.....please help...

SenatorIvy Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 My m1d is bigger than 64k, and my Mslug4 works fine on SE. There appear to be conflicting reports on many things, due to the disorganized nature of the projects in themselves. Try zipping it up and running it anyway. I know I am having problems with the P1 rom of Chaos plus, which in kawaksplus works and gives me all the bosses. In SE however, when I rename the files over it doesn't load past p1. When I change to the larger "correct" p1, the game loads, but then it doesn't give me the last 4 bosses. It is frustrating, I know, but keep at it and it'll work out.

Prican25 Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 ok the reason that mslug4's and rotd's m1d o the kawa-x se read me lists 64kb is because the orginal roms has them as 64kb and not 128kb+ that most of us have i already tested it with a bigger m1d and it works fine but i suggest (just for the hell of like i did) you later on find the original roms and extract it from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deltaquad Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 (edited) To Iori: Actually the original SVC romset isn't been dumped yet.Infact you can find only the bootleg one (svcbl.zip) or the hacked one (svcplus.zip). To all: Anyway the best way to find missed roms is to run one sharing proggy (like DC++, I like that one!), try some hubs, and download as much romsets as you can. This is the way I use to find roms (no matter for which emu is it for), trust me it works good, and...hey without bother anyone! Just give yourself a chance to solve it!That's all! Aloha!
