I see that Night Slashers has been put on the wanted list, its a fantastic game but the best version is the japanese version, but I'm not sure when that version was added into mame.
Its because every version of night slashers is censored with green blood and certain moves that the characters do have been cut, but the japanese version called nslashej.zip has all the gore and moves intact.
check out the screens of the japanese version, red blood and more gore.

Interesting info. Reminds of the japanese version of Vendetta or Magical Cat Adventures, among others, where the japanese version had extra stuff not present on the other versions. Very nice screens. I think the best way could be adding the latest version of the driver (0.129u3).
PS: BritneysPAIRS, nice to hear that.

Big Fight still doesn't work for now it seems. After you insert a coin and push 1p button, the game freezes, just confirmed that and it seems it's a known bug for now.
"Bugs:
- Upon inserting a coin and selecting 'mission mode' the game freezes. Jameson (ID 02578) "
Weird.
The game works fine, you just need to put 2 credits in then a hand appears next to mission select and then you press start.
If you put 1 credit in and press start it will freeze until you put a second credit in, try it now and see for yourself.
Just need to put 2 credits in.
Ah thx for the hint. Added to the topic with that info too. It still has graphical problems, specially when you carry a weapon, but seems playable for now. Thx.

Added Vamp x 1/2 and Cabal to the topic.

I wish to know out of the 1000 games what other games you actually play......
I suppose you're asking for games actually playable at the moment. Will tell you later some, but looking for the drivers thing before, i remember that i was surprised not to see there games like the amazing and classic Pinball Action or Nekketsu Koukou Dodgeball-bu (Super Dodge Ball), and instead having the dreadfull Judge Dread or too many neo geo games that fill a lot of space on the HD or DVD for example.
It's all a matter of personal taste, and i guess that's the reason for the question.
Will tell you more games later.
-
I always used the bootleg version for that reason. Makes the game more enjoyable and it was the version i played at the arcades too at the time.
-
ill keep an eye on this soon.... would like a spreadsheet though. Also need DJ boy, Galaxy Force 2 added
Added those games to the topic. A spreadsheet later is a good idea, if anyone is up to the task.
I started with some games sugestions and drivers, going now for fixs and ideas like some already mentioned by people here and other topics.
PS: Welcome back.

MIDWAY DRIVERS OFCOURSE!!! lol so we can FINALLY enjoy ALL the MK games with sound and perfect frame rate!
I took at shot at getting the midtunit games (MK*, NBAJAM) running in the the MAMEdOx 1.1 codebase (still .84 like CoinOPS) but didn't have any luck.
I attempted to reintroduce the .72 dcs speed hack into the .84 driver but that resulted in lockups.
Next, I built two versions of the MAME library, one for .72 and one for .84; each using the .84 MAMEoX Xbox specific code. I was able to the point where it loaded all the roms within the .72 core, but it would lock up after that. My guess is that something changed in the osd_* routines.
Real life and lack of a debug Xbox got in the way of further progress.
0_0
Sad to hear that.
Currently on my way to do a compilation based on these games and others to test on CoinOPS, just to see how a certain idea fits on 1 dvd, and also to see what's happening on certain games mentioned here, like US Championship VBall, WPH and others, running trough most of them.
RL and PC not being so good have slowed progress here. +_+
-
Cool, will add it to the topic, Thx
-
I was thinking about
US Championship VBall, one of the best beach volley ball game EVAR! (super spike v ball on nes is an adaptation, BAKOOM!), unfortunatelly it's laggy on ignite, i don't know if there is a xbox mame version that emulates it well
Playing beach volley with Schwarzy is really cool
Weird, i remember playing it well before, not on CoinOps mind. I really love that game also, it was at the same arcade near home where was Thunder Hoop and others.
EDIT: Deleted the Raiden games on the first post, since all those games had issues that i didn't like even if they were playable, like missing sound fx and waiting 9 minutes for some games to start.
-
looking at the sega games you added i would reckon it wouldnt be a case of just adding the driver,mame on xbox would need a whole core update as turbo outrun,super monaco gp....are all fd encrypted games which i think it was the mame0.88 before they were all fully emulated.
concerning the raiden fighters games hk$(mameox128)originally put the driver into mameox to get raiden fighters2(2000)working and that game is on cheaper hardware than the original sebuisp1 arcade board.
raiden fighters jet does load in mameox128 and you get the title screen and it runs in attract mode but as soon as you hit the start button it crashes.
concerning the fd encrypted games(turbo outrun...)nes6502(zsnexbox porter)is working on a new version of fba,called fba legends.which is basically going to be 2 fbas in one.it will have the original final burn which plays the sega games like powerdrift,afterburner,galaxy force...and there is also going to be a port of a newer version of fba which will play all the fd encrypted games.
Nice to hear about the FBA version and i like the name.
Regarding Sega games and the others, that's why i'm trying to put all the mame logs that tell in wich version of MAME PC were they fixed and made playable (between version 0.89 and 0.95) and i have no idea as usual of the work involved to porting the drivers and code to the Xbox and CoinOPS. Maybe those versions of FBA will help on that?
The Raiden Fighters games were fixed later on MAME PC (0.93), so maybe that's the reason they didn't worked before on the xbox, or could be too much for the console to handle who knows.
In the end, they are all sugestions, building an utopic library and idea where we can play most games on CoinOPS without the need to change between different emulators.
I really need to check FBA after going through the rest of the mame drivers.
-
i really hope osman/canon dancer and night slashers can make its way to the box.
HF-
Yeah, and Boogie Wings too, besides all the others.
Added some Sega and Data East games, and more Raiden sequels to the topic, deleted some. Still a long way to go.
In the end, we should have a nice list of stuff that are now playable on MAME PC and could be ported/fixed to CoinOPS depending of the work needed for every driver. I bet some are more simple or complicated than others.
-
thanks man,i love playing strider2 on pcsxbox and osman was made by the people behind strider.
No problem.
I was reading that on the history dat file of MAME, where the creators of Strider went to Mitchell and created the game. Interesting stuff.
We are just giving ideas and examples of things that are fixed and available, but in the end it's not in our hands if it will be possible to make them playable on CoinOps, but let's hope so.
Added some more games, and add to put only 1 screenshot now per game since i was at the limit of images per post
Another thing i noticed is that many drivers had some major clean ups, where you only had a bootleg version of a game playable before with stolen sound and music from other games, and now the 'original' versions are finally playable. Not sure if it's worth the effort, but i could add that later at the end of the topic.
-
would it be possible to add cannon dancer/osman to your first post enkak?
the driver was added in mame0.84 but as yet it just hangs at a black screen.
by the way bonks adventure is playable at 60fps on a version of fbaxxx that kenshiro did last year.
Added Osman to the topic. Great looking game, i had no idea has i didn't reached those drivers yet, but the game looks really great at least.
Thx for the hint regarding Bonks Adventure, maybe that helps implementing the fixed driver on CoinOPS. I still didn't played and investigated much the new versions of FBA, but after MAME/CoinOps, i will do that.
CraZyP83, on the MAME logs and info, i noticed this:
"Bugs:
- [possible] Missing duck sound. MASH (ID 02859)"
Maybe that's it? They didn't changed nothing on MAME PC since version 0.79.
-
Excelent, very good work
If it is possible to add these games it will excelent ...
Thx, just trying to help a little.
We can say that it's always possible, but i can't imagine the work to add the new drivers and fixs.
EDIT: Just added Bonk's Adventure and other stuff to main topic, and deleted one puzzle game.
-
A+ research and presentation, Enkak. There's something to like for just about everyone on that list.
Thx.
When i finish to check the rest of the drivers i will post more examples here if any grabs my attention of course concerning games that weren't playable before.
I decided to do make these with screenshots because it's easier to identify the games, and because i really love the look of them.
mirsad, regarding the World Heroes series, that's weird. They are all SNK Neo-Geo MVS hardware, and run on the neo geo driver i think, but since they are 'always' changing stuff on that driver on MAME PC, maybe something broke on those games? Or maybe it's the xbox ram, but even that it's weird, since World Heroes Perfect should be a more demanding game.
-
"Spiderman"
Which is based on the sega system 32 driver has some problems aswell, such as transparant backgrounds overlaps and shadow problems. Play through the first level on coinops and you will see.
Sega System 32 Driver
Name: segass32.c
Thx.
Hopefully those segass32.c fixs fixed that game also. Will add it to the topic.
-
That would be cool.
Since i came back only some weeks ago, i've no idea of what were in that spreadsheet and other stuff. There's lots of cool games that are now playable. The thing is that i don't know how much work will be adding or fixing the drivers.
But at least we can give these sugestions, and it's always cool to see the pictures. I love these colours that are so typical of arcade games.
-
Yeah, it's weird that i was testing those games today on MAME PC and they seem slow, at least from what i remember de original hardware and older versions of MAME too, both on PC and Xbox.
And i still have to check those sound 'bugs' on some older sega system drivers, among others. But at least those games like Shinobi, Golden Axe 1 and so on, seem very playable.
-
As the topic description says, this is an ongoing progress, since i'm going through all the drivers currently supported on MAME PC. I'm on 0.129, will download 0.130 later, that seems to have even more fixs as usual.
For the moment i'm interested in fixs for some of the examples here, and adding new 2D games not currently supported on CoinOPS. I'm not particulary interested in 3D games on MAME, but feel free to sugest them and i will add them to the topic. The more people helping the better, so those fixs needed for other drivers and games like Midway, Namco and so on, let the developers know those problems too, and possible fixs.
With luck, BritneysPAIRS has some material here to check when he returns.
If this isn't the best way to do this, let me know.

OK guys im looking for suggestions... as im away for a month then who knows whats on the cards.
I wish to see a list when I get back of features... something like this
xline filter - mrx missy mrsxy mrxy
rotation of xy games only option - mrsxy
silly feature 3 - mrsxy
this is will give me a list of what people want.
I wish to get a list of drivers
say double dragon - roll back to 0.69 I would love the driver name and the version it was effected and the writeup in mame log to prove it changed in that build eg haze made sound true effecting framerate
also golden axe - mame .96 core fixed background sega16.c
I would say stf and friends should be in charge of this.... keep it constuctive and if its easy for me to look at when im back im sure some of it will be done, along with features I will dreamup myself.
Take care guys...... also ill be stripping some features
sorry one on my list is title shots it will be replaced with another surprise directory. Let me know if you actually use it.Good Luck guys
Ok, i will try to help later in anyway i can, specially sugestions for drivers.
Regarding the titles directory, personaly i don't use it the xbox builds of 'MAME', since we need every space we can for more games if we want to keep it at the size on 1 dvd for example. So i only use the screenshots regarding extras on CoinOPS.
-
Ok, i will try to look later the supported game list on CoinOPS, and going through the compilation i did for MAMEoX 0.84b3 too, since it was a personal best off to fit one DVD, and through MAME 0.129 dats and infos to see what games could use some of the newer or older fixs, or new cool games, with a list of suggestions.
Another older favourite of mine, that i was addicted at the time on a arcade near home, was Thunder Hoop from Gaelco (1992), that was introduced on MAME 0.84 on PC, but only reached playable status on later versions. Anyone remembers that game?
Here's some screenshots:

well i would love to updivers like midway etc ... (ps narc is midway )
this is not what im good at and dont really understand it well.... I welcome any help, It took me about 20 hours to put in raiden fighters 2 2000 and nearly gave up many times. Toaplan 2 drivers update was pretty easy. Any help here would be great. I would pay someone like export or a mame dev to help for a little and fix up these games for everyone. I will be starting a new thread soon for CoinOPS ReIgnite for a list of new stuff. But its allways wierd to me how people talk about features after a release and not when im working on them
I will be looking at the driver area.... video filter area and rotation of screens and advanced options on what to rotate. Ill be looking at drivers only for poplular games though. Enkak do you know any dev that can do drivers that want work... if so get me in contact with them pleaseSadly, most of them only work on MAME PC, so unless any of the current people working on the xbox scene wants to try it, i'm not sure.
The persons that worked on MAMEoX at the time seemed to disappear a short while after that. PS: I'm only talking now about this stuff because i just 'came back' from RL.
We apreciate the effort of course and i've no idea the work that is going through every driver, since most of them have their peculiar things.
I'm thinking about going through the list of games supported and comparing them to the new MAME PC versions. I just downloaded it for that purpose, to see what's changed and what could get a fix or not. At the moment i'm only thinking about some games too, and not all, like the Sega and Namco drivers mentioned before, Avenging Spirit (of course
), Double Dragon 1 and so on. Sometimes, even if they aren't so popular, you can discover new gems and games that people would love to play going through this choices and ideas. It's all about personal tastes in the end. Some people like to have all the Metal Slugs in their compilation for example, others only want the one they like best to save space, etc.

These are examples of drivers that would be updated....
Sega System 16 games since .84.3b doesn't emulate the sound correctly or have missing voice and fx , but is fixed since 0.90 version
Sega System 24 Alien Storm a missing background layer in first person stages fixed since 0.90 version (?)
Sega System 32 emulation is more accurate in newer mame versions
Namco System 2 driver was heavily updated until now (Dragon Saber, Phelios, Burning Force, etc)
That's exactly what i'm getting at. If possible for them to update those and other drivers on CoinOPS, we could go trough the games supported, see what are the ones that play already and doesn't need improvements, and make a list of the ones like those that need some work and were fixed, or made playable in later versions of MAME PC.
In the end, with some coordination and effort, we can have a list of games for every person to check and make their own costumised CoinOPS compilation depending on their tastes and favourites.

i see what your saying cocerning drivrs as i find if a game runs slow and not talking about the midway games here but stuff like avenging spirit,double dragon,narc then a really old biuld like mamex-b6 makes them play at proper speed.
mame 0.61 it was based on IIRC.
coinops is my main emu now mame128 has been knocked on the head as all the features i could want is now in there.
My idea is that if it's possible to do a combination of those builds regarding drivers, to make all of them playable in good condition on CoinOPS instead of the need for us to use different emulators and builds for them.
