  1. One thing I did not mention in my tutorial...

    Although MAWS database says that all NeoGeo games are 320x224 they are divided in two different sizes indeed.

     

    NeoGeo is:

    320x224 and 304x224.

     

    Some games are one, and some games another.

    Why that? I have no clue...

     

    And if I am not wrong, could be sets that run in one resolution

    and sets that run in another, like for example Samurai Shodown.

    But again - I am not sure about this statement. I am just guessing.

  2. I second the Double Dragon 1 and Double Dragon 2 driver fix!

     

    I do run the games in CoinOPS, MameoX 128, Mameox 0.72 and MameX B6 - and for sure - MameX B6 is the perfect one for both games. They run very smooth and the only slowdown is the original slowdown present on the REAL HARDWARE (when you have more than 3 enemies at same time on the screen).

  3. Gentlemen,

     

    As some of you may know I am a huge fan of Saturn Pads to

    play emulators on Xbox and I even have two rare Saturn joypad

    adapters with a pair of Sega controllers in the house... but I was

    suffering a bit all the time because the Sega pads does not have

    the SELECT/BACK button!

     

    I needed to reconfigure anything in my dash and emulators to

    work without the back button... until today.

     

    With this arrival, my life is back to normal again.

    Hell yeah.

    I really DO recommend this controller.

    If you see one, sell a kidney and BUY it!

     

    Let's play, brothers!

    Cospefogo.

  4. P.S. The slowdown in the original Double Dragon, happens on the real hardware, I used to own it.

     

     

    Yes, I agree...

     

    But there is the original slowdown, from the arcade machine real hardware, and the extra slowdown that happens because of the newer Mame cores. It very very noticeable, just try to run Double Dragon 1 or Double Dragon 2 in Mameox128 and then in Mame-X B6, for example.

     

    You will see what I mean.

     

    Cheers,

    Cospefogo.

  5. mamex-b6 runs double dragon1and2 flawlessly,i have compared them in mameox0.72 and b6.

    and b6 wins that one hands down the same goes for narc as well.

    if you have mamex-b6 cospefogo you wouldnt need to hexedit your gamesave as it uses a different one from all the rest of the mames.

     

    YES!

    I did try and MameoX B6 really runs both Double Dragons flawlessly...

    However - There is no way to get rid of the BLUR filter.

     

    I tried even to patch the XBE with the flockerFlicker application (it works perfect on Mameox 0.72) but got no results. Anyone have an idea about a way to remove the flicker filter from Mameox B6?

     

    Flicker flocker just remove the blur in the GUI.

    The games keep running with some kind of bilinear video mode or something like.

     

    JUST NOW WHEN I FIND A REAL TRESURE this bad thing happens.

    Oh my bad luck!

  6. mamex-b6 runs double dragon1and2 flawlessly,i have compared them in mameox0.72 and b6.

    and b6 wins that one hands down the same goes for narc as well.

    if you have mamex-b6 cospefogo you wouldnt need to hexedit your gamesave as it uses a different one from all the rest of the mames.

     

     

    It runs better than mameox0.72?

    Wooowww ˜˜˜˜!

    I really should try it them!!!

    0.72 is already nice, but if this one is better, will get my vote!

     

    Thanks Fu.

  7. One thing I would like to see on Xbox:

     

    A nice - very nice and smooth - Double Dragon I and Double Dragon II arcade emulators. It would be great if some developer like BP, Kenshiro and others could take a MameoX and hack it to the extreme level, making both Double Dragons work smooth and perfect.

     

    I think this is not so hard to accomplish, huh?

    I really wish I could understand about this crazy thing of programming and developing emulators.

     

    Oh my...

    Cospefogo.

  8. CPU OVERCLOCK.

     

    This can be very useful for some games with slowdowns. To call the function press BACK+RIGHT THUMB, (the sound volume setting appears) Go up or down a few times and check the CPU0, CPU1... overclock settings.

     

    Is there a way to make the emulator SAVE the CPU overclocking settings? I mean, everytime I enter a game I need to re-configure this setting. I did set up a exclusive CoinOPS JUST FOR Double Dragon I and II and it would be great if there is a way to make the edited CPU overclocking as defaults!

     

    Also, BP --- Is there a way to remap this option!

    Most of the ARCADE sticks out there does not have the THUMBSTICK buttons!

     

    Regards,

    Cospefogo.

  9. Hey BP,

     

    Is there a way to change the save location of

    CoinOPS Ignite (babe2009) using a hex editor?

     

    I mean --- I KNOW HOT TO DO --- I made it several time in other Mames...

    But simply I can't find nowhere in the hexeditor the "babe2009".

     

    Did you encrypted it or something else?

     

    Please, help me, it's important.

    I did break down my roms in several different groups

    sorted by screen resolution (320x224 - 256x224 - 256x240)

    and I was able to setup perfect PIXEL SHARPEN configuration

    for each screen...

     

    Now the last step is to install 3 different CoinOPS Ignite, and

    this is why I need to change the save location.

     

    Thanks!

    Cospefogo.

  10. Finally I did test CoinOPS and hats off to BP.

    Superb work.

     

    And I really really appreciate the wonderful job on CoinOPS Ignite, and I am really really using it, and I am really really enjoying it... But a small part of me is still attached to the old HK$ Mameox128 because I still can get SHARPEN graphics in the game. I will check my config, but I think it is because the SIMPLE 2X filter. Yes yes, ImThePesterGuy, but this is the way I live. No blur, no smoothing, not flicker filters. Yeah.

     

    Please, I am not complaining, I am just saying words about the last thing that still hooks me up to Mameox128 in some games.

    For those who don't know how paranoid I am with SHARPEN graphics, visit my site at: http://www.fancyxbox.info

     

    Cheers!!

    Great job, BP!!!

  11. PS to change the keys you will require the Non beta build .... eg not the final public beta

     

    I already changed the keys.

    All my setup now completely eradicated the BACK button.

    I am happily playing my fav games with the official Sega Saturn pad with no rash.

    (...and with NO BACK! Ha ha ha)

     

    Yeah.

    :D

  12. I thought you use HK version Cospefogo....

     

    anyways turn on the option to be able to change default settings .. then ingame menu will allow you to change you Exit game key combo

     

    Yes, I have been using HK$ for a long time and this weekend I finally did take the time to test CoinOPS ignite and I like it very much. Very nice work, BP. But there is only one thing I haven't checked yet: Is the recording/hi-score saving feature working correctly?

     

    Best,

    Cospefogo.

    :D

  13. Rescan your games ! I forgot to say it, but after a first launch, you must rescan your roms to be able to sort by genre !

     

     

    A-haaaaa~~~!

    So this is it!

    Thanks man.

    I will do that later today!

     

    And talking about CoinOps, I am searching fo a nice lightgun to use in my Xbox, what do you guys recommend?

    I use a standard CRT 4:3 television. I did try the Saturn original light gun but it does not work correctly through the

    Saturn controller adapter, and regarding that I am sure that a lightgun for Dreamcast will not work too (in the same

    adpater).

     

    Maybe

     

    :D

    Cospefogo.

  14. I think I am missing some info here...

    Pressing BACK button just change the type of view you want:

     

    By name

    By year

    By manufacturer

    and so on...

     

    But when I reach the instance By Category it does not show me the "Sort by type: Category"

     

    It shows Sort by type: Invalid

    And I going on the completely wrong path/method?

     

    Thanks Fu.

  15. i know mednafenx-nes on xbox is good but i would like to see a cycle accurate nes emulator on xbox, like nestopia. The xbox prob couldn't run nestopia without frameskip, lmao but im working toward a perfect nes emulator besides the crappy upscaling that the xbox does.

     

    HF-

     

    Is there something BETTER than MednafenX-NES out there?

    I love MednafenX-NES on XBOX and I think it is a perfect emulator...

     

    Is there something really better than that?

    How is that possible?

     

    Wow!

    Cheers, mate!

    C.

  16. Is anything wrong with CATVER.INI?

     

    I can't make CoinOps Ignite to display the games by CATEGORY.

    Shooting, Puzzle, Sports, etc etc.

     

    Here this view mode says "Sort By Type: INVALID".

    Anyone noticed the same problem?

     

    Cospefogo.

  17. I have been into this matter for a long time, and all that I did learn was the following:

     

    - The only way to hook up a NES, SNES or Genesis controller in your Xbox is to destroying a official X controller and turning it into a "bridge". How is that possible? You will need to "solder" the wires of the SNES ontroller inside the circuit board of the S controller in the respective button "places", and plug the S controller on the Xbox. It will work like an adapter. But this is pretty hard to be done ---- AND ---- you will be missing a lot of useful buttons for the emulator GUI.

     

    - Another way (the best imho) is to buy the rarest Xbox Magic Box adapter. It is a adpater who permit you to plug PSX (PS1), Dreamcast and Saturn Pads in your Xbox. I have two of these and they are gift of the Gods. The Saturn pad is the best controller of all mankind.

     

    - Yet, you can buy in Play Asia a PS2 adapter and buy for you a PSX (the oldest, first controller) game pad. The one without thumbsticks/analog controls. This is the closest you will be to a SNES controller.

     

    - And, using the same adapter you can use the magnificent HORI PS2/PSX arcade sticks. They are SUPERB for MAME, bro.

     

    The end.

  18. started playing faxanadu facelift hack for nes, really good hack, has "prettier" graphics or so to speak.

     

    By the way fumanchu the golvellius patch is the same one that makes golvellius lock up in bluesxbox, it does work in bluemsx which is weird. Have you tried this out yet?

     

    HF-

     

    Hey Sire,

    I love Facelifts!

    I will try this Faxanadu hack one of these days!

     

    At the moment am playing Hokuto no Ken on Master System (Meka X).

    Nice game... Much better than its American Version "Black Belt".
