I know this problem's kind of old, but i can't seem to find the proper way to fix the KOF2003 ROMset that i've downloaded. I tried running it in Nebula but the controls won't work. I've already looked for the patches, but still i can't find a way to make this work.

 

Here's the exact ROMset with its CRCs that i currently have, this is the clean file:

 

P-ROM

271-p1.rom 57A1981D

 

S-ROM

271-s1.rom DF422440

 

M-ROM

271-m1.rom E86AF8F

 

V-ROMs

271-v1.rom D2B8AA5E

271-v2.rom 71956EE2

271-v3.rom DDBBB199

271-v4.rom 1B90C4F

 

C-ROMs

271-c1.rom E42FC226

271-c2.rom 1B5E3B58

271-c3.rom D334FDD9

271-c4.rom D457699

271-c5.rom 8A91AAE4

271-c6.rom 9F8674B8

271-c7.rom 374EA523

271-c8.rom 75211F4D

I was wondering if what kind of ROMset did i get... i usually see 2 P-ROMs on the DATs that i get here.

 

Please i need your help with this one. I don't know what to do first whether to patch this to this or that to that.

 

Thanks in advance. :D

 

BTW, i'm using Nebula 2.25... and i also got the loader.

In most newer sets there is only 1 P rom because the data of the P2 is already in the P1 as well. Make sense to you?

 

As for the controls not working: There have been others who claim to have this problem, yet many people (myself included) never had such problems).

Errr... Could u post your dat file please? Kof2k3 romsets with one P rom will probably work on NRX, Nebula etc

Not just probably, they will.

Not if they don't have the bankswitch removed :blink:

Uhm, thanks for the replies.

 

Uhm, sorry for being such a noob... but, what bankswitch? I just copied some DAT from the DAT thread here. I'm trying to make my own DAT as well, i managed to make it work but no controls as well.

Um... i based it from disobliged's DAT on "List of all the DAT files" thread, except for the P1 ROM and M1's CRC. I based it from the CRC of my own ROM.

 

Is there something i'm lacking?

Bankswitching is a type of protection used in newer Neo-Geo games. A type of memory mapping to be exact.

 

There is nothing wrong with your DAT. Like I said before, other people have had issues in Nebula in the form of the controls not working. Honestly, I don't know how it can be fixed.

Ok thanks for the info. Anyway, what version of Nebula are you using? I was thinking that it might be something about the emulator. Just a hypothesis, though...

 

Controls still not working... *sob* =[

LOL I've just checked the dat you posted works with nebula 2.25! Anyway long ago i had same problem. I was using dat i've found on some forum (maybe it was this one :blink:) and i had the same problems with controls. Later i've found what the problem was. The dat didn't have this part :

So check your dat in romdata folder or make a new one with romdata maker :banghead:

He diesn't have to use RomDatamaker since all the info is in that DAT already.

Well, the thing is... i tried removing the [system] part already but still controls doesn't seem to work.

 

I tried switching to Console mode and still no luck with the controls.

 

My head's starting to ache... :blink:

Ok, first remove your kof2k3 dat from romdata directory and try this one :
