1) I'm updating configs. If I did anything to the control configs or analog sensitivity I highlighed it in blue. (Can I just send you the configs for all the controller fixes?) 2) I don't know how to do the vm.txt files. Can we get some more games working right with this? 3) Romstatus is something I would work on if I knew you weren't currently updating it, so I'll let you know when I'm ready and ask you for your newest one. 4) Does the emulator make nv files to skip the boot after the first boot? And yes... there are tons of mahjong and quiz games, nes and clones and other BS parent roms that are not included in what I'm adding. I'm sure that all adds up to the tons that aren't included, besides the 300 or so that I've tested that just don't work.

Cool thanks. That must mean that I've filtered out a lot of the crap. I'll be happy when I make only the adds and the clone changes to US roms that I'm planning. I dare anyone to find a better version after I'm done. If I don't have any more questions about setup you won't hear from me again in this thread, but you might. Otherwise, I'll let you know when I'm done in PM and we'll talk about adding this stuff for the future so I don't have to do it all again if I decide to upgrade my CoinOPS emu in the future. Thanks, ~Rx

I understand what you're saying man. I'm just not ready to talk with you yet because there is still testing and compiling romsets to do on my end. There's no need to IM each other at this point because we'd just be wasting our time right now. I just may have a question or two while I'm setting that up, and as you can see, people are respecting my wishes here and not blasting this thread. I'll state my question differently this time. How many working games are there in CoinOPS currently, that are Arcade Games?

Is 2,300 games including the 300 or so console games then? EDIT: I'm also making some replacements for US roms over the parents. Is that easy to get integrated into CoinOPS too?

I didn't have time to go through all the games this time, since I need to wrap up my end shortly, so that's probably why it's missing any games. Also, it doesn't include any non-arcade roms. I just took the WMVs that I had which were not already used for coinops and decided what I'd try to add from there. Also, my list does not include any games that were already included in the "Top 1,500" datfile that was included in the R5 package that I downloaded. I figured if a game made it into that list then it was already tested by you. I have all of those "Top 1,500" games in my setup except for about 10 that I can't find. I'll talk to you about it more when I'm done testing what I'm going to test. Later, ~Rx EDIT: I also did not test any roms you hadn't already included that were sports games (with a few exceptions). Tons of golf & baseball games were removed, as well as a few basketball, tennis and others. I'm not a big fan of sports games and they usually don't work very well in MAME without a lot of configuring) Also not tested were all trivia games that weren't the Trival Pursuit games. (Since most of them were really old, looked very primitive, and I don't know any of the answers lol) Obviously all text heavy foreign and mahjong games were not tested either.

Yeah maybe PCE but PCECD is another history...... sigh why seems everybody thinks it's enough with those emus? the xbox is more than capable of run this jewels of gaming, and looks like nobody give a damn about it, it's a real shame because the existent emus (mednafen and hu-go) only needs a talented programer willing to make an optimization of its cores in order to reach the quality status of masterpieces such FBL or Coinops, I still have hopes this tread wake somebody with the skills necesary to do it, after all, here at 1emulation we have the best emu developers I 've seen in ages. Dude... seriously. I have spreadsheets on the testing I've done. With very few exceptions, PCE and PCCD work fine.

I did notice while testing that quite a few suggestions I had a few years back for control configs were put in. (I don't know if you put them in at my request or if somebody else requeted them, but good work). The Trivial Pursuit games using the Red and Green buttons are one such fix. I also saw that you got some other non-working stuff to work since I was looking at this stuff a few years back. I'm not done with my adds and getting all the artwork and videos for only the added working games yet. When I am, maybe we'll work together a few hours and get anything in there you dont' have yet. Later, ~Rx P.S. Is the Allowance Mode and/or 2 controllers alternating on old 2 player alternating games working in R6 then?

PCE works fine for me.

Are you not answering me now BP? I got your back keeping the haters out of this thread.

Hey BP. I'm making a spreadsheet with the games I'm adding to R5 for my own personal setup. Quite a few of these games are real good and I'm surprised you haven't added them. Anyways... It's a work in progress, but here is my spreadsheet: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0At...p3bHc&hl=en It's the 3rd tab at the bottom. ~Rx

FYI.... Games that work on NestopiaX that didn't work on XPORTs that are in my collection: Contra Fighter Creatom Donkey Kong Country IV Final Combat Great Wall Hell Fighter Jin Gwok Sei Chuen Saang Magic Jewelry II Magical Mathematics Panda Prince Pipe Mania (Pipes) Rockball Street Heroes Strike Wolf Tiny Toon Adventures IV Bird Week Chess Academy Druid Famicom Grand Prix - 3D Hot Rally Hot Slots Ninja Jajamaru Space Hunter Time Lord Youkai Club

Slightly on topic, I was wondering if any arcade emulator plays the MK games as well as that ISO file I just installed on my box that I've had for well over a year. It ripped (supposedly) perfect arcade ports from other XBox games and gave them a frontend launcher. It's actually really cool, and seems to me to play perfect. Should I keep this?

I don't know the answer you seek, but let me be the first to say I hope you get some positive responses. The thread you speak of was closed down like a few before it for childish behavior from a lot of people. Though I'm no good at artwork myself, I understand the ins and outs of the XPORT emulators, but I don't have a clue where to begin with the CoinOPS skin.

Hey BP... you going to add Vectrex games? That would be sweet. Maybe we could get the overlays to work with transparancy too to really emulate the actual Vectrex experience. EDIT: I do have boxart that could be touched up and videos other Xtras for the Vectrex that could be used. Just don't have an XBox emulator to do anything with them yet.

Actually, out of the romcenter datfile that I got that was included in the R5 version of your emulator, the videos for these games are the only ones that I had to rename. Everything else worked just fine.

Just putting together a full video pack for R5 and I noticed that a few games won't play off the parent. Most, but not all, of them were renamed by you, I believe. Maybe this is why it doesn't read the parent's name. Here's the list, and what I converted it to, to get the video previews working: bwings to bwing dynwar to dw 10yard to yard ddux to dduxbl mwalk to moonwlkb twinfalc to whizz toutrun to toutrun2 kof2003 to kof2003d suratk to surpratk spidman to spidey svc to svcboot svc to svcsplus mpang to mpangj kazan to iganinju hyprduel to hyprdelj landmakr to landmkrp pitfight to pitfigh3 So now we have extra videos in my pack for the following: bwing.xmv dw.xmv yard.xmv dduxbl.xmv moonwlkb.xmv whizz.xmv toutrun2.xmv kof2003d.xmv surpratk.xmv spidey.xmv svcboot.xmv svcsplus.xmv mpangj.xmv iganinju.xmv hyprdelj.xmv landmkrp.xmv pitfigh3.xmv Now all the videos work. Not sure if you knew this, so I was just pointing it out to you. Later, ~Rx

That was a lot of reading. A lot of reading for a lot of features Hehe... caught red handed. Sorry man.. my OCD works certain ways. I can rename stuff for 8 hours straight or spend an entire weekend touching up boxart in Paint, but reading details has never been my MO. I never even knew much about your FBL until I saw what a cool machine it was for myself. I hear you used our synopsis. Thanks for the props. How much work would it be to put a new synopsis in there. Whatever you have is outdated compared to what I have today. Later, ~Rx

That was a lot of reading.

How easy/hard will it be for you guys to add all the new additions now that you've already done this? When the Xtras come out soon, there are tons of games that weren't covered in my original datfiles. You'll have a near complete set of all the official games with the old stuff, but it's missing tons of hacks, translations, foreign games, pirates/unlicensed, etc.

I knew it..... I'm surrounded by Assholes...

It would be really cool if you guys just took a step back for a few days and just chilled out. I haven't read everything in here because I've got better things to do, but this just seems out of hand now. Don't get me wrong, I know I'm the first to argue a bit here and there. But what I've seen recently has been quite a few personal attacks on each other disrespecting each other's lives and each other's work and I don't like seeing that happening here. I don't care how big or small the project is, if somebody is working on this stuff I don't like seeing their work getting repeatedly slammed. Especially when people start some mob mentality stuff that seems to happen a lot in these forums. I guess just ask yourselves why you do it. Why do some of you waste so much energy spreading negative vibes post after post? I'm sure there are more positive and constructive ways to channel all that energy. Before you post just close your eyes for a minute and just forget anyone else and their opinions on these forums and then ask yourself what makes you need to keep bringing that drama back in your life.

I'm thinking I may have fixed all that can be fixed and I should probably just wrap it up. 720 unique games is good for me. Nobody can figure out my mslug5 problem. I have the correct rom, which has been verified by the FBL datfile, a recent FBA datfile and several other members. I deleted all config files and tried again with the same results, several times. In the end, I just went with the (AES) clone since that one works fine. Thanks for looking into it man. I don't do emulation on PC either, so I'm not going to be testing that way. Later, ~Rx

You're saying you won't look into alternating controllers?

Allowance Mode 2nd controller support for old school 2 player alternating games.

Man... could you guys just relax a bit?
