  1. UP <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In the directory path options page 1, you can see G is mapped to \device\cdrom0 by default, so use G.
  2. New version out! What's new: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ver 20060505: This is a fixed version of ver20060412. 1. Changed some malloc function to osd_malloc so if there's not enough memory, the emu will warn you instead of a crash. This fixed some crash when decrypting neogeo roms and the gfx error of Power Instinct 2 and Power Instinct Legends on 64m xbox. 2. Rewrote some neogeo gfx rom decrypting code, so it uses only 2K/8M ram instead of 40M/48M/64M to decrypt. Now on 128M xbox it doesnt need vmm to play kog, lans2004, and the svc bootlegs, and less vm is needed for svcpcb and kf2k3pcb. (On 64m xbox less vm is needed too. Some code is converted from iq_132's FBA code, thanks!) 3. Since some encrypted neogeo games need 8m physical memory to decrypt the gfx rom, if the neogeo game need vmm to play, you have to set the threshold value over 8m, or else you will get a crash. So I added a check in the gfx decrypting code, if virtual memory is used, and the threshold value is below 8m, it will warn you instead of a crash. Due to these 3 changes/fixes, there shouldnt be any crash playing the neogeo games, even playing the huge encrypted neogeo games on 64m xbox. 3. If virtual memory is not used (which means, 'force vmm' is set to 'no', AND there is no info in vm.txt for the loaded game), then the xxpagefile.sys file wont be created in the cache drive. 4. Enable the patch to bypass the hardware test of Ghouls'n Ghosts which is tooooo slow. 5. Since many ppl never read the readme, and dont know there is an aspect ratio mode option, and then complain why the game is not in full screen, I have to set 'stretch' instead of 'original' as the default setting for aspect ratio mode... 6. Added new neogeo drivers: ms5pcb (Metal Slug 5 (JAMMA PCB)), ms5pcbd (Metal Slug 5 (JAMMA PCB,decrypted V,decrypted C)), svcpcba (SvC Chaos - SNK vs Capcom (JAMMA PCB, set 2)), mslug3b6 (Metal Slug 6 (Metal Slug 3 bootleg)) 7. Some skin.ini fixes. 8. MAMEoX.xbe is not packed, so it's a bit large. But this will save some byte of memory. If you want to pack it to save some hd space, just use xbepack to pack it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3. It's said in the readme: you need a usb keyboard to activate custom buttons.
  4. Arcade veision of street fighter 1 works perfectly on xbox with ram upgraded.
  5. Why not use autofire with custom buttons? Set a extra fire button in the custom buttons menu, and then set it an autofire button, and use the normal button to charge. I think this is better than using a toggle autofire button. Many officially ported shooting game use this way.
  6. + T + have you added iq_132's svcboot_cx_decrypt code and svcpcb_gfx_decrypt code to FBA-XXX pro? These code use only 2k/8m memory to decrypt the c roms instead of 64m. I converted them to MAME code and added them to MAMEoX, works great! I also rewrote neogeo_bootleg_cx_decrypt and kf2k3pcb_gfx_decrypt with the same idea, works great too! Now on 128M xbox it doesnt need vmm to decrypt kog, lans2004, and the svc bootlegs, and less vm is needed for svcpcb and kf2k3pcb. Thanks iq_132!
  7. I think it's due to a failure of mallco function when decrypting V roms. It should be already fixed in my later private version. And will be released soon.
  8. Using command.dat in game will cost too much memory. That's why MAMEoX128 Plus! have history.dat and mameinfo.dat file supported in the interface. And it's not as easy as adding history.dat and mameinfo.dat file support to add command.dat support. If you want to do it, I recommend to use FBA's command files, which should cost less memory and be easier to support.
  9. Well...It's not the fault of the xbox. You just dont really know how to audit your roms. For example, when loading s1945p.zip, the emu will load some files from neogeo.zip. So if you have neogeo.zip on your computer but dont have it on your xbox, xbox emu will show some files are missing but pc emu wont.
  10. Yeah sure I know that, I said "play encrypted neogeo games with vmm on" didnt mean with "force VMM" on. I just want to verify if you need to set threshold value larger than 8M when playing encrypted neogeo games, either with the force vmm option or with vm.txt file.
  11. It seems if you want to play encrypted neogeo games with vmm on, you must set the threshold value over 8m, otherwise you will get a crash. Can anyone do some test to help me verify this?
  12. He must means super bishi BTW +T+, which games were unplayable before but now control almost perfectly? I dont think I changed anything about the analog controls. (except in an earlier version I fixed a bug with analog controls caused by custom buttons)
  13. hmm...I think you can refresh the rom list even if there's no refresh button. Just delete the MAME(d)oX save(exclude the MAMEoX.ini file) after you add roms to it.
  14. Use the dat files included in the release to audit your roms.
  15. Yes you can I often visit this site too. @ Thraxen, you mean you are a mod at xbox-scene right? Yeah I'm interested in geting it submitted to Xbins for ppl to find it easily. I have got some bug reporting, so maybe a fixed version is soon. Plus, I said "It should play more than 1 song now.", what I refer to is the 20060412 version.
  16. Thanks HK$!. This build is great. I love the IPS function. I take it this newest build will appear at the usual place soon? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I do not have account to xbins, so I only uploaded it to the sky tracker.
  17. MAMEoX128 Plus! has added auto-fire feature long ago. And custom buttons as well.
  18. 1. It should play more than 1 song now. But I dont know why sometimes it stops playing the next song. 2. Now pressing right thumb to left or right to changes the screenshot\titles\cabinets picture. l-dpad and r-dpad are used to set the game's favorite level.
  19. No need to use that command line, just set "show splash screen" to "No" in the misc options page.
  20. right click and save target, then rename it to.rar
  21. Sorry there's something wrong (screenshot area) in the skin.ini of the original skin of MAMEoX128 Plus! v20060412. So here's a fix. skin.rar

If you want to pack it to save some hd space, just use xbepack to pack it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ver 20060412: --updates to the launcher: 1. Supported history.dat and mameinfo.dat file, you can view them in the launcher. Latest version of these two files included. Put them in the general folder. 2. Added code to display ips patch screenshot and the friendly patch name in the dat file of IPS patch. You can use ips reloaded v2 directly (http://mameplus.emu-france.com/) 3. Added flyers, cabinets, and titles support. And added an option in the romlist options page to select use which image (screenshot or flyer or cabinet or title) in the romlist. You can also press right thumb to left or right to change it. 4. Added screensaver image option in the miscoption page, screensaver can use screenshots, flyers, cabinets, titles now. And they are displayed in correct aspect ratio. 5. Added adult game filter mode and non-adult game filter mode. You can set them in the romlist options page, then use black button to switch filter. Note the emu is use the genre in the catver.ini file to see if a game is adult or not, if a game's genre is started with 'Adult' or ended with '*Mature*', them the game will be treated as an adult game. So if you find one adult game is not treated as an adult game, just add it in the catver.ini file. (Latest version of catver.ini included!) 6. Added full screen image mode (while in the romlist and there is an image displayed, press B ) 7. Added a simple music player to playback the xbox custom sound track. You can start or end music playing in the misc options page. 8. Added option and shortcut (right thumb) to select using full game name (game name and version) or simple name (game name only) 9. Added safe mode. In this mode, you can only play a game with A button or quit the emu with L+R+black. Set safeMode to 1 in MAMEoX.ini to enable this mode. 10.Now in the help screen, about screen, inputchooser screen, patchchooser screen, skinchooser screen, history screen, mameinfo screen, you can press B to back to romlistscreen. 11.Added show splash screen option in the misc options page. If the emu crashes at the splash screen with some kind of controllers, just disable the splash screen. (In fact it does not 'crash', but wait for no input) 12.Display the xbox memory in the misc options page 13.Added the total game number to simple rom list 14.You can press F5 to refresh the rom list if an usb keyboard is plugged. 15.Removed led color change feature which can make some softmodded xbox crash --updates to MAMEoX: 1. Automatically detect the xbox memory size and load the correct vm.txt file (vm.txt for 64m xbox and vm_128.txt for 128m xbox), this is usefull for ppl using bios loaders. 2. Fixed dumping driver data very slow if you enable vsync --updates to MAME core: 1. Updated all cps1, cps2, neogeo, cave, igs_blit, tnzs driver to the latest mame 2. For every encrypted neogeo game, a decrypted set is added. Many romset changed, use the include dat files to audits your roms. 3. Some other additional games: fixeighb, sbishi and etc. See the included SupportedGames.txt file for all supported games. 4. Now compatible with ips reloaded v2 (http://mameplus.emu-france.com/) 5. Added PCM ROM banking to hotgmck, hgkairak and hotgmck3 so the sound works correctly 6. Some seibuspi drivers added (raiden fighters 2), Raiden Fighters 2 - 2000 works the best so it is recommended to play this one. (Note: They do work on 128m xbox, however I have not tested them with real 64m xbox, but have tested them on 128m xbox with 64m bios. So I think they should work on real 64m xbox) 7. Added sound to Batsugun and Knuckle Bash (imperfect) 8. Some playchoice 10 system updates: * supported the single monitor bios, added option to choose Dual Monitor bios or single monitor bios * rewrited some code so that if you select single monitor bios, you can play playchoice 10 games in full screen * fixed Metroid and Baseball Stars: Be a Champ!, they are on playchoice board with more ram. 9. supported uni-bios.22 10.Added "Exit Game" option in the mame ingame menu --other updates: 1. Updated skins. Use the included skin pls. If you want to use BritneysPAIRS's MAMEoX skin, overwrite the old skin.ini file with the one in "\Skins\MAMEoX by BritneysPAIRS" folder. 2. Dat included. I added save mame listxml file feature to my debug version. So I can simply save the listxml.xml file and convert it to romcenter and clrmame pro dat files with logiqx's DatUtil tool.(Note: The dats are fine, but it seems romcenter have some problem with kf2k3pcb and svcpcb. These two games need sfix.sfx and 000-lo.lo in their zip, but romcenter wont list these two file. These two games are pcb games with their own bioses, so they do not load bioses from neogeo.zip ) 3. Some more changes and updates and fixes you may or may not notice
  23. Not mp3s, it plays the custom sound tracks on your xbox randomly.
  24. A simple bgm player is added to the launcher. The neogeo drivers are all updated to MAME0.104, and the decrypted drivers are added, but I still have to verify some decrypted roms if they are the most accurate. For example, the c7 (8ee6b43c or 374ea523 ?) c8 (6d8d2d60 or 75211f4d ?) for kof2003 In my understand 8ee6b43c and 6d8d2d60 dont contain the s data but the other two do? For the Kiosk mode, I'm thinking of not only lock the start menu but also others (display mode changing and etc.), so you can only play games or quit MAMEoX in this mode.
