ok i hate to be redundant, but i have a kawaks emulator that came with a loader. no problem.

 

But there are 2 icons the standard winkawaks icon and the loader which is a star. Both icons open kawaks, and the loader loads up more games. but none of them let me edit the asr file in kawaks to put the info in.??? any suggestions?

Ok still not working but i think i got it....

Using kawaks so we are on the same track.

 

I used the rom data maker and do all that stuff...I take the info it gives me and i paste it in to the asr file using notepad. the dat file i put it into the tracklist folder, I also i made sure the directory was pointing to the right folder for the track list and bam it sould work.

 

***EDIT********

I am not sure if i put the dat file in the tracklist, i just use it to paste it into the asr file, so then i assume i just get rid of the file. after that the game should work i suppose.

No no. Don't remove the ASR.DAT file. And don't put it in the tracklist. There is nothing in my tracklist folder.

 

Don't set any directories to where the ASR.DAT is. Set the directories where the roms are. If Kawaks detects that the roms and the stuff in the ASR.DAT match, then it will show up in the playable list.

Ok, one last time

 

1 get the dat file from the rom data maker

2 open it with word pad and paste that info into the asr file file.

3 get rid of the dat file (cause its not needed)

4 play the game

 

the game im stuck on is metal slug 3. i downloaded 2 other roms but it still wont read it yet. ?

I was havin the same problem and that's why I eventually ditched Kawaks. I dunno, maybe you have better luck than I did if you try hard enough.

 

I edited the Asr.dat so it matched *exatcly* with my romsets, but i came up empty handed. I've gone through that Ars.dat probably ~10 times with a fine-tooth comb, but I still can't find any faults within it.
