hey 2eyez, can you tell me which server and channel you got the dev kawaks from? I checked my usual irc channels and didnt see it anywheres.

Actually, Lantus was not the one who started mame-x, opcode was. THen after beta 4, superfr0 took over. Oh and i dont know what was up with disabling vmm in mame-ox .

Yeah it is kinda funny . That was posted by CraiZE (an #xbins moderator by the way, seems odd why he would help spread a leaked version). I downloaded the leaked version in fear that there would not be an official release(because of the leak) and it is quite impressive. Besides some freezes/lockups(it's still a little unstable, but hey its a leak), and not being able to change the controller configurations, the emulator works DAMN good. Games run alot more smoothly. Graphics and sound are better. I like the box art as well, nice added touch. As for someone asking about the jerky controls for goldeneye, they have gotten better, but its still pretty damn hard to aim precisely. zero129, I would wait untill the official release, as I believe they are incorporating the new 1964 core, which will most likely affect game compatibility. Well, congrats to oDD and Lantus for such a great emulator, and I hope they keep up the great work.

COOL! Thanks for the tip faceless.

Thank You evlcookie. Saves me the time of compiling my own version. Can't wait to play this game, hope its as good as the rest of the metal slugs.

Well, Ive been wathcing all this mslug5 stuff for the last couple of days . This morning I was checking through some ftp's that had some mslug5 "stuff" and I found this interesting.txt file with a dat in it. Here it is: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% System: NEO RomName: mslug5nd Game: mslug5 [Program] 268-p1d.bin,0,800000,9F2DBA3D,0 [Text] 268-s1.bin,0,20000,64952683,0 [Z80] 268-m1d.bin,0,20000,6FA01C9A,0 [samples] 268-v1.bin,0,400000,C3540E0D,0 268-v2.bin,400000,400000,77BD2F4,0 268-v3.bin,800000,400000,39B14567,0 268-v4.bin,C00000,400000,969FF3B2,0 [Graphics] 268-c1d.bin,0,800000,969C0D62,0 268-c2d.bin,1,800000,C69AE867,0 268-c3d.bin,1000000,800000,D7BEAEAF,0 268-c4d.bin,1000001,800000,E1B1131B,0 268-c5d.bin,2000000,800000,2FA1A5AD,0 268-c6d.bin,2000001,800000,6DE89589,0 268-c7d.bin,3000000,800000,97BD0C0A,0 268-c8d.bin,3000001,800000,C0D5BC20,0 [system] CartridgeID: 268 GfxCrypt: 0 GfxKey: 0 ButLayout: 9 Fix: 0 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% RED Evasion 268-P1d 122A:0067?¨754E A screen is dirty. I found 2 things interesting about this dat. Note the text at the bottom about the p1 rom, and also note [Program] 268-p1d.bin,0,800000,9F2DBA3D,0. ANOTHER P1 rom . Maybe this is the correct P1 rom we need. Does anybody have this p1 rom(note the crc)? Anyways, thats the info i gathered for today, besides more screenshots of it running with scrambled graphics .

Thanks Prican25.

Thanks for keeping us updated Mr.X. We may get this thing working peice by peice .

hey N3oGhost, could you tell us where you got the m1, v1, and v2 roms from?? I could only find the p1, s1, and the c roms. Thanks, and I hope you are able to get it to run on kawa-x .

Hey emsley, I think I can help. This is what I do when I want to change.rom files to.bin files for certain emulators. Never had to change.bin to.rom, but I assume it would work the same. Open a command(dos) prompt. go to the directory that has the files that you want to change. I'll use svc.bin and svc.rom for examples. Once in the directory with the files, you would type "copy /b svc.bin svc.rom" without quotes, and press enter. It copys svc.bin to a file, called svc.rom, which is what you want. The "/b" tells it to do a "binary copy". Hope that helps you.

Ok, thanks for the info man.

Hey Prican25, your posts on the newsgroups are incomplete . Maybe someone could create a.torrent of ssv for kawa-x(and the.xbe already edited), and upload it to suprnova? Just a thought. Thanks for sharing Prican25 .

Thanks for the info MAXXXKKK, but I was wondering, by doing this hex edit, will I still be able to use svc? Or does this replace svc with samurai shodown 5? i want to be able to play both games on the same.xbe.

yeah, thanks for sharing deltaquad! .
