MAME cannot recognize my neogeo bios nor my MVS roms.

Post by niconiconico »

Hey guyz!

I have problem running MVS games with MAMEUI32 0.140.3. It doesn't recognize the neogeo bios, nor my roms. I remember bygone days the bios was 260ko, now it is at 1.28Mo and wherever i go it is still the same bios.

Anyone knows where i can find the proper .zip file that the lastests MAME could recognize? Or, should i have to take one of the .bin files into the bios and put them in each of the MVS roms?

Cheers,
NICO

I was able to launch the game with the lastest 0.141 version even if they were not working. With the one i use, the non working games do not show up so i can't have a test (and of course i've erased the v.0.141 :palm: ).

I'll try to redownload the 0.141 and check.

Highlight your game in MAMEUI, hit ALT+A and copy+paste the results here - that way we'll know exactly which rom(s) you're missing.

That's a program rom (flipflop.zip), not part of the neogeo.zip BIOS set.

It was updated in the 140u1 release.

On the site I linked to above, you'll find the changed flipflop.zip ROM in downloads > mame > update packs > 140u1

Note that this is only the parts of the set that changed and not the full set (which is available from the 141 folder)

HTH

Cheers,

Ralph.

As far as I can see those CHDs haven't changed since 116u4.

There was a renaming frenzy in 0.129.

Nothing happens in changing the name :(

EDIT: And i am able to launch the game, just it doesn't appear in the "available" list, i have to launch it from the whole list and i land to the CPS3 booting menu as it's not the NO CD version. I'll try to finish the loading.

EDIT 2 : Games is working, but i can't slide it to the available games list.

1) Anyone has a good awbios.zip?

MAME tells me the file "bios.ic23_l" needs redump and i have checked on retroroms if they had the good one but it's the same i found away.

2) Regarding this:

sfiii3 : cap-33s-2 - INCORRECT CHECKSUM:
EXPECTED: SHA1(41b0e246db91cbfc3f8f0f62d981734feb4b4ab5)

Anyone can forward me a direct link where to download the proper file?

Cheers,
