No one really. I would like to bump mine up to 2gig and upgrade the CPU to a 3.4gb Hey robbert maybe you can stop useing those fully decrypted neogeo roms in Mame now.

You have been into emulation for a long time now and you never knew about this. I am sure I have told you all about this in the past

Another day another update.

lol they do not need to be there anyway. I have it like this myself /* kof2003 */

Hey robbert how come you use the decrypted V rom ?

Um The MVS does not have the custom BIOS yet it still has transparencies. I have a bootleg set that usess the extracted S rom data from the C roms and it has transparencies and it does not use the custom bios.

Well I will wait while you port the games over to PS2 then

Your welome Its cool I do not have to unlock the thread to post unlike Arcade@Home

My reply was not for you Then why use them in Mame ?

NRX may play them But there not true rom sets any rom after 1998 are encrypted and need to be hacked to work on NRX.

Yes more or less like Mame Plus

I was doing that. Just had a small problem with your post since it was merged with this one and it could not be deleted. I had to delete my post which was above to fix the problem. All fixed now. Maybe robberrt can clean it up if he likes so it may look better. You can try there forum http://emu.netfirms.com/cgi-bin/light/light.cgi

I understand that The news section is mostly for the frontpage anyway.

Please try and keep all Mame related releases in one thread thanks.

Yep its known This is what I use in the normal mame build in neocrypt.c Which means nothing needs to added to the driver_int in drivers\neogeo.c /* the S data comes from the end fo the C data */ { /* Start X-or */ if (strcmp(Machine->gamedrv->name,"ms4plus")) if (strcmp(Machine->gamedrv->name,"ms5plus")) if (strcmp(Machine->gamedrv->name,"kf2k2pls")) { /* End X-or */ int i; int tx_size = memory_region_length(REGION_GFX1); UINT8 *src = memory_region(REGION_GFX3)+rom_size-tx_size; UINT8 *dst = memory_region(REGION_GFX1); for (i = 0;i < tx_size;i++) dst[i] = src[(i & ~0x1f) + ((i & 7) << 2) + ((~i & 8) >> 2) + ((i & 0x10) >> 4)]; } } } If you look at mame plus source you see they have a code as well that allows the same thing. Which is also in neocrypt.c

IQ that ava is scareing me. I keep thinking of GameCop when I see it

Well maybe you can get patches to get the right roms. I am sure there will be people eager to help.

Why that one ? They were known to be bad rom sets and the emu is just as old as the driver posted here.

I find it very funny to be useing fully decrypted sets in Mame.

Thanks guys for your birhtday wishes. Now here comes Xmas

Yes by then the event will be over hehe.

For me it is already

Happy birthday to me

Yes the driver is in Mame Plus. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> could you post it by chance? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> LOL you can get the source from http://mameplus.emu-france.com/download/ma...20051114-src.7z I am sure you will find other things of use as well oh by the way this code needs to go in src\vidhrdw\cps1.c {"dinoh", NOBATTRY, 0,0,0, 0x0000,0xffff,0x0000,0xffff }, /* layer enable never used */

I am not the public
