---------------------- FILES THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED BY YOU -----------------------

 

CoinOPS\general\catver.xml - This sets the Catagories of your games (eg 1v1 Fighter or Shooter etc)

This requires you to Scan All Your Games

 

 

So I guess I just need to figure out how generate or configure this file. When I look in the general folder all I see is catver.ini

Do I need to convert this?

Everything else is working fine. So far I have been able to play off dvd with 840 games. Thanks again.

For my part, i have a request for : 2002 - Gals Panic S3 (galpans3)

 

Because all others are working, but this is not working, and the S2 have some glitch ...

If it is possible to have all the familly working, it were great :D

 

Just added in it in. Atm, it needs a speed hack, which will take me a little time. Works fine otherwise though. :)

 

Woaw excelent lol ... you are very quick ... many thanks :)

 

I will try them all (Gals Panic familly) to be sure they are all working with last built, to not forget one :)

 

Some body speak about this too before ... have you repair Sega32 arcade games like Golden axe 3 who have many glitch on the some levels ...

Because it is an excelent game ;)

Superscroll press left or right (to fast select no more holding Y down) you could read the readme or the buttons and features in the EMU it has what all the buttons do as there are many more feaures than MAMEoX

Ive done a tidy up of alot of code...... everything is now tested and R4 is nearing completion. This will add a bit more but tidy up some stuff including adding a few more Manufacture sorts.

Cool! This emu is amazing. But what about Crystal of Kings? Could it run on Xbox? Thanks for everything!

there is a really good shooter called vimana by toaplan which i have been playing on coinops lately.i know the sound on a lot of toaplan shooters isnt fully emulated yet but i do remember reading somewhere about a process called decapping.

do you know if they have got any futher in actually getting the sound emulated yet iq???

Nope, no progress afaik. If you check Guru's decapping list, a lot of the mcu (also the sound cpu) chips are needed.

Highly unlikely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's a good way to tell if a game will be playable on xbox. :D

 

Run your mame game in windowed mode on pc

mame -window kof2003

 

Open up the task manager

 

Record the average %cpu mame uses for this game (not intros, IN-GAME).

Next, add 5 to this as newer cpus are more efficient than the one the xbox has and MAME has gotten slower.

We will call this percent-> GAME_PERCENT

 

Next, find out how fast your CPU is in mhz

So if it is a 1.8ghz dual core cpu your ghz is 1.8 * 2 -> 3.6

next, multiply this by 1000

so your mhz is 3600

we'll call this number CPU_SPEED

 

Next, find out how much ram this game takes. If it is over 60mb, you're likely going to

need to use the VMM. This takes, I'll guess, about 5% more cpu.

If this is the case, add 5 more to GAME_PERCENT.

 

 

Now, here's a quick formula

(CPU_SPEED * GAME_PERCENT) / 100

 

just plug in the values as necessary. :)

 

if this value is above 733, it will very likely run like crap on the xbox.

 

 

 

 

 

Here's an example

Night Slashers takes ~23% cpu on my system.

I'll add 5% to this, making it 28%

I have a 1.8 GHZ c2d. So I would do (1.8 * 2) * 1000 -> 3600 mhz

Night Slashers also needs the VMM.

I'll add 5 more % to the GAME_PERCENT, making it 33%.

 

plugging the values into the equation:

 

(3600 * 33) / 100 = 1188mhz is required

 

Taking this even further, you can calculate about how many fps you should get.

 

733 / (1188 / 60) = 37 fps.

 

[note that ~60 is the normal fps for most arcade games]

 

 

 

This isn't 100% accurate, but it's close enough in most instances. :)

thats a pity about the toaplan games as there are some great shooters on their hardware.out of all the toaplan games vimana is the least i ever hear anyone mention.

B rap boys does not work properly after stage 1 and matrimelee is not read on rom scan. Using Showcase R3.

as for b rap boys there are some graphic glitches that is already known about but it plays for me after the second stage.

 

@iq132 i noticed that power instinct legends the third in the series of these great beat emups is not in coinops would it be possible to add it to your list.

sega model 2 arcade hardware on xbox,the xbox just dosent have the power under the hood to emulate that game alvarez.

its one of the greatest if not the greatest arcade racing games ever,so if you have a dremacast then i would suggest you hunt down daytona usa 2001 which is an arcade perfect port with extra cars and tracks.

Anyone having problems with the dat using romcenter? for some odd reason it tells me my roms are fine don't seem to match what the r3 wants. for example avengrgs.zip comes up perfect but when I load up on R3, it tells me I'm missing 3 files which looks like named wrong but if I fix the name it tells me crc is a mismatch. have a few roms coming up this way with the dat that came from R3 and I tried it with the latest romcenter and an older vrsion with the same result.
