Some roms not for kawaks?

[ni8shadow]

i want to know why my kawaks wont recognize my kof 97 rom...it works with neorage08bxp....i searched and i keep hearing about DATS...and some people say some roms work for some emulators while others wont. how will i know what the exact problem is?

 

i got kof 97 from Link not allowed - Diso

and if this site is neorage only, where can i find the kof series for kawaks 1.46?

 

thanks

You could probably rename most of those game files so it would be reconized by kawaks. But if you want a site that already has kawaks version neogeo games...go to Link not allowed - Diso

how do you rename them? thanks for the advice too.

[Agozer]

You RENAME them.

like HOW? where? rename all the rom files to what? same name? new to all this stuff...im used to old school emus for snes and stuff.

[Agozer]

First of all, how are the roms named inside the zip file? (Give me an example)

ok,

there KOF97_C1.ROM..this goes up to...C6.Rom..then

KOF97_M1.ROM..then P1.ROM...P2.ROM...S1.ROM...V1.ROM...V2.ROM and finally V3.ROM

 

 

thanks for the aid

What error messages (if any) Kawaks gives when you try to load that rom?

[ni8shadow]

couldnt find 232-p1.bin(7db81ad9) for game error.

 

i also downloaded kof 98 from the above site and kawaks could not recognize it. they are all.bin...i used it on the loader thing from neoarcadia and regular kawaks.

Link not allowed - Diso got kof 98 from here and kawaks gives me a coundt find 242-p1.bin thing. the romset i downloded incomplete?

[Agozer]

try renaming all the KOF97 roms to 232-xx.bin. (xx being c1, c2, etc.)
