Hello Niko

Got your software running perfectly now with my Blast City and Capcom converter.

All games are perfect but Crimzon Clover doesn't pass the " press start " screen.


But the most curious thing is that the first day I played your software, Crimzon was working perfectly! :-o and the second day won't to pass the press start....

Do you know what could be bad ?

Is there also any option in the test menu to play vertical games in smaller size with the monitor in horizontal position?

Thanks !

Have you tried a keyboard to set the buttons up? I believe that's what I did to get it working.

Did you have the same problem with Crimzon Clover too?

I have no idea about how to connect it to a keyboard... I only connected it to the cabinets lol :lol:

I'm not sure if you're joking. You can plug a keyboard into the TypeX2. The boot the Multi. Then in Crimson Clover you can acces the menu and attempt to setup buttons, allowing you to get past the start screen.

I wasn't

I'm new with type X2... I bought it already done ..

But I just followed your advise , plugged a USB keyboard in various USB ports and type X2 doesn't recognize it...

You have to use a PS2 port keyboard. Non USB.

Not a PlayStation 2. Again I can't tell if you're joking. You've never used a non USB keyboard or mouse?

Ps2 is the plug type:

Super Stupid question, do I (we) need a TypeX2 to run this, or can I get the image running on an equivalent PC ? Thanks ...

for this you need a typex2 - you can always use the old loader to play the games on any windows pc.

Downloading this right now, looks great :)

Two quick questions:

1. Does this support Nesica x Live games as well?
2. Is there a way to quit a game back to menu without switching off the Vewlix?

Thanks!

Thanks for the great software Niko!
I've recently installed it and it works great!! There are some games, though, that won't run off of it, and I was hoping someone could offer some insight.

I'm running V1.0 on an 80 GB Seagate HDD.
Here is the list of games I have on the HDD and whether or not they will load.

Battle Fantasia No
BlazBlue Continuum Shift Yes
Chaos Breaker Yes
Giga Wing Yes
Homura Yes
Hyper Street Fighter 2 No
Ikaruga Yes but gives I/O Error
KoF 98 UM Yes
KoF Maximum Impact Regulation A Yes
KoF Sky Stage Yes
KoF XIII Yes
Matrimelee Yes
Persona 4 Ultimax No
Raiden 3 Yes
Raiden 4 Yes
Rumble Fish 2 No
Senko no Ronde Duo Yes
Shikigami 3 Yes
Spica Adventure Yes
Street Fighter 3 Third Strike No
Street Fighter Zero 3 No
Tetris Grand Master 3 No
Trouble Witches Yes
Ultra Street Fighter 4 No

Thing is, a lot of these games worked before the multigame. For example, USF4 was running fine before the multigame was installed, but now it barely even tries to load when selected.

It's roughly the same as installing on a regular PC but use a version with direct input enabled.You also need the JVStool to translate the inputs from the JVS card.

Tetris: Grand Master 3 is a hacked work-around requiring different video drivers. You actually need a secondary drive in order to run this one. see here:

Most of your other no's are Nesica titles, Nesica isn't supported at present.

Battle Fantasia and USF4 should be working though. Try updating to the current 1.3 build, maybe?

USF4 really? That's supposed to be on Nesica as well (standalone is X3).

USF4 runs fine on X2, but some modifications are required for that to work. I believe Niko and his crew already have it working in unreleased builds of their loader. :awe:
