James Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 (edited) Even the bootleg C roms has S data. Bootleg means that it has been hacked and the protection has been removed. Edited July 21, 2004 by James
pyro Posted July 21, 2004 Author Posted July 21, 2004 lol now it has been.. before for kawaks dev and mame it hadnt
James Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 (edited) lol now it has been.. before for kawaks dev and mame it hadntWhat are you on about ? all the newer (99+) neogeo games the S data is in the C roms and has nothing to do with Mame Kawaks or any other emulator. Edited July 21, 2004 by James
darkmage479 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 (edited) I'll trust your info, James, but i swear i saw written down that the neogeo hardware itself cannot support transparencies AT ALL. that's why samurai shodown IV, for example, makes its life bars "transparent" by flickering them on alternate frames. James, a link to an official spec sheet or something of that nature would be greatly appreciated. Edited July 21, 2004 by darkmage479

darkmage479 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 but if you check the website link i posted earlier it states that "the transparencies were not in the original dump." Does that mean they are in the MVS but not AES, or some MVS versions have them and some don't, or what?? James, i believe you when you say the transparencies are real, but i'm still confused.
Wizard Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 Depending on the dump from the rom chips. That means, when it was FIRST dumped, i.e. the original bootleg that was hored, did NOT have the transpancies.
darkmage479 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 so does that mean there are two versions of kof2k3? like a 1.0 and a 1.1 which has transparencies added?
