I have attached a list that is part of my rom manager.
It lists
1. the zipfile name
2. the parent or bios
3. the sample zipfile
4. the chd file
5. the game status (GGG = it works)
6. the long name
It is for mame 0.90u2 but should suit your purposes.
Enjoy!
-
neither do I, and I've got an old win95 pc
-
he can type in
MAME -listfull |sort > list.txt
that should in theory produce a text file with the games sorted by the zipfile name

CPU could be over-heating. You can check it by downloading a program called speedfan, it will tell you the CPU temp. If it exceeds about 60 deg C, you have a problem.
That doesn't work on some motherboard brands. Same goes with MBM.
But at least he can try it.
-
I can give you a list of all the games that exist if that helps at all.

RazorM6, thanks for your reply.....I think.
A mod chopped it out.... is there any chance you could PM it to me?

I thought it was clear enough..?
The roms are renamed to their crcs
For example, for the game 'invaders', usually you need
invaders.e, invaders.f, invaders.g invaders.h
If you opened my invaders.zip, you would see
0ccead96, 14e538b0, 6bfaca4a, 734f5ad8
This works because mame, kawaks, nebula, and final burn
look at the crc first, not the filename. Only if a correct crc is
not found, will mame look for matching filenames and issue
a warning. Kawaks completely ignores filenames. Nebula and
Final Burn haven't been tested, but I would expect them to
work the same way as kawaks.
Why do it? I have one zip file, the fully-merged set, containing
the roms for the parent and all children within the one zip.
This one zip is used by all 4 emus, and as we know the roms
aren't always exactly the same between them. Further, I have
multiple versions of some emus. It saves having lots of similar
sets laying about. My kof2001 set has 45 roms in it - and it
doesn't cover everything - still more roms to be found.
I don't expect that you would like it or understand it, but it
suits my purposes just fine.
-
Thank you for that. In my mame roms, the indivual roms are renamed to their crc instead. This is acceptable for all mame variants, kawaks, nebula, and final burn. It means that the one zip can support all those emus and different versions of each, at the same time.
Will Callus and calice work this way? At the moment it seems not. NRX doesn't.
-
No, Callus works with Zips, AKAIK. have you specified a rom folder? I recommend Callus over Calice anyday.
It called callus95 to be exact. I did specify my mame roms folder as the roms folder. I tried every game and none worked. There is no crc list anywhere so I don't know what rom set names, or rom names to use.
-
Two more emulators!
callus, 0.42, 1998, no instructions, unable to run any games.
looks like it requires files and folders rather than zipfiles.
Any ideas?
calice, 0.4.6, 2001, no instructions, unable to run any games.
There is a folder full of .drv files, which look something like loader .dat files. I'm not sure if its just something to read, or it controls the games. It lists crc codes in there, so perhaps it uses zip files. If the .drv files control the emu, it becomes quite flexible - as long as you know what to do.
What comments or help can you give?

Click on the link in the first post for those answers.

FBA doesn't work on win95... so that's the end of that !! <_>
onto the next emu........
-
Is FBA just a newer FB, or a derivative?
What is the current version of FBA?
-
I've set up yet another emulator, this one is Final Burn v0.518.
The simplest and easiest mame-type emu yet!
Graphics run very fast, sound usually ok but occasional echo on some games.
Can export the rom-list to clrmamepro or romcenter standard.
No auditing facility. No indication of what works until you try it.
Although the instructions say that the roms folder must be directly below the exe, you can change this in the cfg\finalburn.ini
This let me use my mame roms as input.
Does anyone have any words of advice concerning Final Burn?
What is the difference (if any) between Final Burn and Final Burn Alpha?
-
I have kof2003 running on kawaks 1.48b dev (if it helps)
Here is the info
262144 c521b5bc 271-bios.bin 16777216 c29acd28 271-c1d.bin 16777216 328e80b1 271-c2d.bin 16777216 020a11f1 271-c3d.bin 16777216 991b5ed2 271-c4d.bin 16777216 c2de8b66 271-c5d.bin 16777216 3ff750db 271-c6d.bin 524288 0e86af8f 271-m1d.bin 4194304 b9da070c 271-p1.bin 4194304 da3118c4 271-p2.bin 1048576 5cefd0d2 271-p3.bin 1048576 59d376da 271-p3d.bin 16777216 2058ec5e 271-v1d.bin

Got the romcenter stuff sorted out. A very simple format.
Now I can say that 2.23c has 405 games, while 2.24 has 433 games.
One strange thing - I selected Puzzle Bobble, but a clone called Bust-a-move ran instead.
-
better if you fixed the link.
although it shows on the screen properly, it's actually got http in it twice.
-
I'm getting a problem with 2.23 in that the area above the game screen goes blank. Like where it has the buttons for minimise, X, etc - and the line below, where the menu is.
Anyone have a solution? - i'm running win95 - old DLL ?
-
I've found and dl'd nebula 2.23c, and the nebula 2.24 loader. It seems that the neogeo romsets in 2.23 are not the standard mame ones. Now, I will write the interface between the romcenter dat file and my rom manager. (Allows my system to create romsets specifically for nebula).
-
Romcenter is like clrmamepro. I may download one or the other if there's no other way to get the info I need.
-
I just noticed that Hazuki runs and is playable. Graphics problems again, but not too bad. The 2 little fighters chasing each other looks ridiculous.
-
Can I play these extra games without the loader?
If not, should I start using google to find one?
-
I made the changes, it is a little faster.
With the neogeo.dat, do I just add the extra info, and the game appears in the list? Or is a loader another executable?
