Dont think changing rom sets would hurt anyone especially if it means improvements.

Left truncated rom names on this time. Didnt realise i had overscan before so had to re-mapped some stuff, as you can see. Was stating co-ordinates in earlier posts for the The-Ice-Man. But it makes for boring stuff so PM everything and just show results here.

Exactly all those changes you mentioned are going in my version. Didnt want to post my changes cause i thought you may have got upset with me fiddling with your values. I did only have a few mins earlier to play with it, will complete later on.

TotalRom count re-aligned to X = 170 Rom list re-aligned to X = 50

Heres a quick pic. Bad camera work doesnt do it justice but hey what do you want. All i had to do was remap players to bring it inline with the others. Personally i will remap romlist to bring them inline too. Rom count will be remapped underto fall inline aswell. These are personal choices obviuosly.

only just got back here this afternoon, got pm, will work on it later. Thats the best i can do. Had a quick go (spare ten mins) used default config.xml. The only thing i could see off hand was <players> X co-ordinates = 170 rather than 290. All other remapping seems to be done with the default.xbe i have which i think is a HD version. All co-ordinates are still stated using a 640x480 format then resized by the xbe i presume.

can anyone help me find the supported gameslist.txt

Perhaps im a little late to the game here but here goes. Is there an updated "supported roms.txt" of some kind available yet ?

I used the first cheap router i found £ 28 uk, and £ 12 uk for wireless network card and voila two machines fully networked. PS. No firmware upgrades of any sort required. The router firmware is 3 yrs old, can be used in all manner of configs. Is this something youve done yourself or just guessing ?

Networking the xbox with wireless equipment really depends on how your pc connects to the internet already, this determins which gear you need to buy. Which rooms have an internet access point. In my situation i live in England, i use fibre optic broadband. All of the habital rooms in my house have been hard wired ready for cable broadband. With this in mind my set-up follows, the modem is hardwired using broadband input in lounge (living room, sitting room, tv room) which then connects to the wireless router still in lounge, xbox hard wired to router with lan cable, still in lounge, PC in spare small bedroom with wireless card installed. All hve internet access and networked. All i had to buy was a wireless router and a wireless card for my pc.

Nothing to do with emulation, codename "Banana Hammock". Still makes me laugh weeks after i first saw it. Does it have that effect on other users or am i wierd ?

F.A.O. BP You know what im gonna say and youve said in no uncertain terms how you feel on the subject (which i think is unfair) but here goes. Rather than adding another 250 Street Fighter / Shooter type clones would you perhaps take a look at some of the gun games / drivers (some already existing in current builds). Other users and not just myself, are missing out on some right gems. It would surely broaden the horizon of the emulator and perhaps appeal to more users. Its common knowledge that other emulators emulate certain games better than CoinOps and users build rom sets for each emulator based on that principle. Now having said that CoinOps itself is a huge achievement and still my weapon of muti-choice. Its come a long way yet how much further can it go in its current form ? In an ideal world an emulator (based on mame) could be written for light-gun games only, dispensing with the need for flexibility which would dump a lot of code and should be relatively light weight. If i remember correctly (probably not) there are over 60 gun roms out there, perhaps more. Although i feel ive just wasted 15 mins of my life typing, what do you think ? Are you up to the challenge ? Im wearing my fire retardent underpants and have rhino thick skin so dont be shy, i wont cry, honest !

I do use Xport's emulators, Both cartridge and MegaCD stuff.

I remember having to queue for ages to get FlashBack MegaCD. At a premium price too if i remember.

up till xmas still owned a bbc, still own an electron. Games wise .... well where to start. On the subject of emulators was going to post last week when i saw that you were trying to get an emulator to run an emulator to run bbc / electron games. Tried all possibillities and failed a couple of years ago. Best i got was wine through xdsl but encountered directx problems, sorted that out then , nothing. Left it there. I agree i would love to see a BBC /Electron emulator especially after i had to resample all my games on cassette as they were from the mid 80's when i first recorded them. I now use either my stereo system or a mp3 player to play them. I could use the PC but for me it kinda loses something. Did look at electrem a few months back but had compile problems and coupled with the fact that i dont have enough experience with porting problems, it got left there. Would just take an experienced coder a few hours to get a basic system running on xbox but its not me. Yes Manic Miner was available and pretty good too, Boffin was good, oh theres loads.

its usually the things that we overlook that cause the most problems, they also tend to make one believe that the problem lies elsewhere. Which in turn creates further problems that werent there. Anyhow its nice to see youve sorted it out without having to pay money.

I think you already know what i would like to see implimented better !

There is a suggested file list in there, you could always grab a few roms yourself to get playing / testing. The dats are provided too for building rom sets.

Ive had that for the past 2 versions, thought it was just me !

Point taken, wasnt having a go. Tried it on CRT 4:3 tv, CRT Widescreen and Widescreen LCD, just to be sure. Maybe its the way i must of set it up with the screenshots i downloaded ! This time i saved all my own screenshots from previous exploits copied them over and theyre all the right way round "FOR ME" now. PS. Won't release any packs, too many cooks and all that. I think you'll find if you ask my wife im never wrong ! Sterling work BP.

ha ha just noticed in the side column for my profile "warn : 0%" whats that all about then ? . Perhaps a little tittle tattling going on !

the reason you think there are screenshots missing is coz they are for the 1000roms that will be released. previous releases had more games so obviously some images are missing for the games that are not going to be included in the new roms package. i havent seen any rotated maybe you have to change something in the settings. hmmm , yeah just been looking, nothing seems a miss. looked on pc and yup 400 x 300 rotated 90 degrees to the right, the wrong way. Not an issue for me as im quite able to sort it out easily. Others may not be so competant.

quite a few screenshots missing for me and too many rotated that will need fixing for most users

Sofmodded 4 boxes Thursday, they all got a copy of Ignite with complimentary roms. And have passed copies to other users / family in my area so its spreading beyond this forum.

Its cause your popular guys, or the Emulator causes quite a stir. I like to think its cause your popular.
