  1. release info via xbox scene. MednafenX-NES - NES Emulator for XBox v12b (Public Beta) http://mednafen.com/ http://xport.xbox-scene.com Special thanks.. RessurectionX, and Gilles9999 for giving the project legs when it needed them. Frank Morris for some suggestions. Cospefogo.. For a spankin' new default keyboard look. Mega_Man_(?) for being crazy enough too volunteer to enter tons of gamegenie codes. Gilles for some rumble codes. Nes6502 for the proposal on the Synopsis format Thanks to all involved for doing the missing movie previews and filling out the Synopsis for the NES. Rx, Gilles, Justgoonies, and Mega_Man_(?). XTecuterX73... Where are you man? Anybody else my brain dead self forgot. What's New: Dynamic Skin with Dual Screenshot Movie Previews DYNAMIC MEDNAFENX PM3 skin by Gilou9999 (read the readme.txt in his skin folder). There is an alternate synopsis background in the skin directory. Feel free to try it (just rename it to "synopsis.jpg) Lots of interface updates. This is mostly an interface update with all the changes I've made over the past few months. It's basically a public beta to (hopefully) drum up some interest and give everyone a taste of what's ahead. If you feel like signing up head over to the RessurectionXtras thread at http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=660135 and volunteer. If you have any questions head over to that thread, or the official release thread. I have a few tips for working with the .dat files. ----------------- Interface Changes ----------------- The much talked about "Game Synopsis!". See http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=663137 * Synopsis. Press down on right stick to see a description, tips, hints, of the highlighted game. * Synopsis background can be stored in the skins "backgrounds" directory or the emulators "background" directory. Skin directory is searched first. * Help screen support for game select screen and text browser (try pressing start). (Graphics provided by Gilou9999) * The two help menu's and synopsis background are now skin specific. So if the emulator finds the files in a directory called "backgrounds" in the skin directory it will use them. Otherwise it looks in the emulators directory for a "backgrounds" directory. If no synopsis background is discovered the emulator will use the default "other" panel. The Synopsis background is named "synopsis.jpg". The help files are named "Game Selection Menu.jpg" and "View Text File.jpg" * Box/Cart art can be displayed in seperate window. Box/Cart art is autodetected based on size (only in "old screenshots" directory). * Movies display over screenshots so if you want, you only see screenshots when no movie exists. * Can now stream videos and screenshots from Samba or Relax. It is recommended to do on or the other, but not both or you will get slowdown on the videos. * Screenshots are now sorted and displayed in proper order. * Screenshots/Box/Cart art in the "old screenshots" directory can be named anything (as long as it has a .png extension) * The In Game Options Screen can be sized and positioned now. * New option to "Force Game Screen Size/Position". There are two configurable screensizes. (To deal with multi-core systems like MekaX and XboyAdvance). This will be useful when switching from HDTV to SDTV or vice versa. It will save the user the trouble of resizing the screens for something that is likely temporary. * Numerous changes to menu system see below (current menu configuration layout) * Skin sprites can now be named for easier manipulation. Directory names must be of the format "0_spritename", "1_spritename", etc. Do not use underscores for the spritename. It is a delimiter. * Added "Select Skin Configuration Used..." and "Save Skin Configuration as..." to the "Configure SKin" menu. This allows multiple skin configurations in one skin allowing the user more "pre-defined" options on how a skin looks. For example the placement of the games list and the preview screens. Gilou's Dynamic skins really take advantage of this, check 'em out! * Skin previews when selecting a skin or a skin configuration. The files must be in the "preview" directory within the skin directory. "preview.jpg" for the 4-in-1 pic, and "configuration name.jpg" for the rest. * Removed popup message from "Configure Skin/Select Skin" and replaced the top line with the text "Press Start To Select Directory". This displays on all "change directory" menu screens. * Changed "Seconds before auto-advancing Screenshot" to "Seconds Before Auto-Advancing Artwork". * Changed "offset X" and "offset Y" to "Offset X (left/right)" and "Offset Y (up/down)" in the Sprite Settings menu for those who are confused by cartesian coordinates. * Sprites now display when sizing the preview screens. * Screenshot, movie, and gamebox preview transparency's now working properly. * Removed "Sprite Settings" option from "Pop-up Configure Skin Menu"... Fixed bug caused by doing this. * Changed directory browse code so it can be told to "ignore screenshots/streaming media" * Changed volume increment/decrement on mp3 player and game sound. Set to 10 for now. * User can now change music volume in the game select/help/and synopsis screen. * Zip selection screen now sorts the zip contents. Helpful in Computer emulators in which some zips may contain "multiple disks"! * Unmapped all the default UI mappings except for "in game menu", "keyboard", and "fast forward". * Modified the autolaunch (from dash) so that it jumps straight into the emulated game. Be sure to set the option to "Exit the emulator on game exit after autostart". * Fixed a bug where the gamescreen would get blurry after changing video options. * Fixed a bug where the xbox would lock-up when setting 10x11 mode in non 480 modes. * Improvements to the cheat database system. Changed menu options to "Search Cheat Database for Codes" and "Save Cheat Codes To Custom DB". * Search can handle multiple CRC's for games that use same cheat codes but have different CRC's. (Be careful with this). * Search and save database options modified to be able to handle GameGenie codes in addition to Gameshark codes. * Fixed a bug that would cause "Add new code" to default to GameGenie when it should be Gameshark. Use "Add New Game Genie Code" at the bottom for GameGenie codes. * completely changed around the screenshot directory structure to accomodate the ability to display both screenshots and cart/box art at the same time. (Don't worry the old screenshot directories will still work until you are ready to switch). * Text file directory retired and renamed to "Media" directory. Screenshots (in the menus) renamed to "old screenshots" to reduce confusion. Note: Point the media directory to the directory that contains your "artwork" folder. New format as follows /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/box front/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/box back/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/cart/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/titles/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/action/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/misc01/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/misc02/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/misc03/ /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/misc04/ ....... /usernamedfolder/NES/artwork/misc99/ and so on Pictures are displayed in the following order. Title, Action, Misc01-Misc??, and then it switches to the old dated ( ) screenshot directory. Be sure to remove your old screenshots once you've switched over or just point the screenshot directory to somewhere else. It alternates between Boxart and Cartart in the area specified for them. left/right on left analog to change screenshots. * Changed the way the movies directory is handled. The emulator no longer adds the emu name to the path (ex: NES or "f:\movies\NES\"). So you'll either need to move your movies down a directory or just point the movies directory to where the movies are located. * After changing the media directory the emu will ask the user if they want to point the movies directory to "media\movies". * Tinkered around with volume control options for mp3 (music), in games sound, and CDDA. 0 (no volume) thru 100 (full volume). Although technically the volume is no longer audible well before it hits 0. on normal game select menu... Right analog stick left/right - music volume Right analog stick up/down - movie volume Left analog stick left/right - change pictures Left analog stick up/down - nothing On favorites menu... Right analog stick left/right - music volume Right analog stick up/down - movie volume Left analog stick left/right - change pictures In game menu now shows current Game (SFX), mp3CCDA and CDDA volume (if applicable). Right analog stick left/right - game volume Right analog stick up/down - music volume Left analog stick left/right - CDDA volume Left analog stick up/down - mp3CDDA volume ------------------------------------ Sorta implemented features (hidden). Try selecting .xmv and .jpg/.png files while in the text file browser. ------------------------------------ - Ability to display documentation (.jpg) - Commercials - Framework put in place for "mediabrowser" ------------------- Changes to Mednafen ------------------- * Modified the rewind controls to use the now standard method of mapping used by all other x-port emus. * Customized the default mappings for emu (Only NES related mappings are displayed). * mp3CDDA and CDDA have their own volume control now and are saved with each game configuration (only affects MednafenX_PCE). - Still waiting on some Mapper changes by XTecuterX73.

  2. you need 3 posts dude,i cant pm you the link until you have 3posts.
  3. it dosent matter if you have a chip or softmod as it dosnt affect memory in either way. i tried all those games and they work fine for me,to get them working just go into the settings and turn on virtual memory.
  4. been trying out the midway games bp,there is a definite improvement.i found mk2 ran the best i noticed rampage world tour runs a bit beter as well now.
  5. just download AID#9auti installer deluxe)XBMC and burn it to dvdr or cdr and pop the disc in and that will install the latest version of xbmc to you. heres info and the download is in the first post. http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/postt24831.html
  6. you can only use a xbox1.0 or 1.1 as after version 1.1 the connection to the motherboard changed.i had the exact same thing happen to me about a month ago and my xbox is a version 1.1.so i had to use an early version so your friends power supply wont fit . i got my new powersupply from a guy in the uk,he has tonnes of the things but i dont think he would have nstc/u power supplies.
  7. wolfenstien is the grandaddy of all fps shooters so they all look like wolfenstien. Im not implying that it sucks and you shouldn't say awful things like that. it was the first fps game and yes i did say that. Oh okay, wanna fight? *kidding* Anyway, why not show the actual trailer instead of this montage? I would rather hear how it sounds than hear killzone music in the background bringing nothing but hype to the video above. coz its a 5minute clip and shows a lot more of the game,if you want to see the actual trailer then you know where to look...googles a good start. Indeed, here you are lazy butt: http://www.gametrailers.com/user-movie/wol...ler-2009/311442 well instead of complaining about it shitkicker you could have just posted it in your first post instead of being an anal twat.

  9. no there isnt any video support for fba on xbox.

  12. I cant wait to get this game for the 360,it looks as if the release date has been pushed back to August 18th. heres the extended trailer of the game.
  13. pm sent eder,also heres the screenshot pack that was released about 3weeks ago,might as well post this link for people who dont have it. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XX2ODJZD
  14. pms sent to everyone...
  15. cool looking forward to trying it out. for people who wan this just shoot me a pm and i will send you a link.
  16. yeah i know championship sprint plays fine its just mk1,2,3,narc,rampage world tour,hardriven and primal rage which i have done this with. i might upload the files somewhere this weekend if i get the chance.
  17. actually bp i dont know if this is any good to you but maybe some other people might find this useful. after messing about with the midway games to day in mamex-b6 and mameox0.72 i remembered about the mortal komabat pack which has mk1,2and3 ripped from the arcade treasures 2 pack. anyway i have the actual midway tresures2 disc so i had a look at it in my file explorer and seeing as mk1,2and3 can be launched i thought i would try the other games that arent emulated to well in coinops due to the drivers namely rampage world tour,hard driven,primal rage and narc. full list of games on the disc,the disc is basically an emualtor with roms. A.P.B. Arch Rivals Championship Sprint Cyberball 2072 Gauntlet II Hard Drivin' Kozmik Krooz'r Mortal Kombat II Mortal Kombat 3 NARC Pit-Fighter Primal Rage Rampage World Tour Spy Hunter II Timber Total Carnage Wacko Wizard of Wor Xenophobe Xybots the games launch directly off the dash as they each have their own default.xbe so they can be launched individually. i just made a folder for each game that arent emulated to well in coinops and there are only 3 folder files in each game folder.its very easy to do and now i can launch primal rage,hard driven,mk1,mk2,mk3,rampage world tour and narc dirctly off my dash and they are emulated arcade perfectly. obviously you have the .cut files coming but this is the best way ive found id say for people who dont wont to use earlier version of mameox like b6 or 0.72 for the midway games.
  18. ive tried them out and heres my results. mamex-b6 mortal kombat 44/53fps mortasl kombat2 37/53fps nba jam 35/53 narc 33/57 bear in my mind the fps jumped so quick between the speeds that gameplay isnt affected. mameox0.72 nba jam te 27/53 throttle 95% and again the fps counter jumped so quickly that gameplay was not affected. mk3 38/53 again fps counter jumped really quickly between 53 and 38fps that gameplay was good. umk3 37/53fps again good rampage world tour 25/53 but again this was very minimal and the gameplay speed was never really affected especially with the throttling.
  19. how do you get the framerate counter to show up bp???
  20. basically double dragon1 runs better on earlier versions of mame for xbox,in 0.84 there are a lot more drivers and gameplay speed seems to slow down on certain games. basically there are 2 earlier biulds of mame for xbox which play games better for now.mamex-b6 and mameox0.72. mamex-b6 games double dragon double dragon2 mortal kombat mortal kombat2 nba jam nba jam te narc avenging spirit. mameox0.72 2on2 open ice mortal kombat3 ultimate mortal kombat3 rampage world tour primal rage. if you have ever tried any of these games on a newer mame biuld then you will know about the slowdown. if you have coinops ignite romset or any mame biuld romset on your xbox then just copy over the games i have mentioned into the rom folder. these biulds of mame use different gamesaves so you can run these 2versions of mame alongside coinops and their wont be any conflict with either biuld.
  21. all the above games apart from powerdrift,run and gun and title fight play on coinops.
  22. moonwalker already plays fine on coinops as for the dj boy,you can play djboy for the genesis or pc engine on the emulators medanafenx-pce or neogenesis.
  23. this is how it played in the original neogro hardware with the slowdown.if you wont to lose the slowdown just overclock the cpu in the options.
  24. all 3 work fine on fbaxxx pro in the newest version and fba1.28.
  25. floppsy and 111111 do you wont a link for r3??
