BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 there is alot of other stuff thats needed for games to work....just dats will give alot of errors and I wont release that some need cfg donenv donevm donevmhd doneparent mixing etc
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Then were do you get this stuff then? Are you the only one with a Box that can play everything? I can't believe that's the truth or nobody would be following this thread.
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 I created all those files and yes its all matched.....with a bit of learning its easy to do and no coding skills required now my build is torn apart there are others with the build but you will need all the files as per every other release you need stuff to skip past test screens etc on some games and host of other issues some games have... ask around a few people have it that changed there name but are old schoolers......the offical release was shut down when asked and now I pulled it totally apart and building on it Anyways if your not working towards the future you are on your on......and I wish you luck with it
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Okay, well I guess that is the answer then. I need whatever there was for your last official release, likely before you added the console stuff. I'm just looking to put a pack together that will work with both the newest version of CoinOPS and FBL together, without any of the console roms which are already perfectly emulated on other emulators and have full Xtras support already. What is the name of your last stable and official build? I can't keep track since it changes names all the time.
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 CoinOPS reignite R3 Standalone but id say no one will use that soonish also there are alot of other dat changes than just every md and snes game...anyways as you see your own your own project so I wish you the best...I need to look forward
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) That's fine. I realize that things are going to be advanced after I'm done working on the Xtras. If I can get that pack together to work with current official releases of both CoinOPS and FBL than it will be a great start for people to add on as the emulators continue to be developed. Like I said, I'm not interested in the console stuff here, just the arcade stuff. I'm sure your emu plays them beautifully, but because of the difference in naming conventions I have no desire to duplicate videos and artwork for your project on my box. That's an extra 20 or 30GB and likely more as you continue to add games. No point in that, when the XPORT emulators play that stuff just fine and Madmab is a genius and is easy to work with and get new features put in. If somehow they could use the same naming conventions, I'd be putting it together so your emu could use the same video files that we already have. EDIT: That being said, do you or anyone else here have datfiles for "CoinOPS reignite R3 Standalone"? EDIT2: I think with some recent developments and certain individuals I've been speaking with that the Xtras project will continue to go on after I'm done. Hopefully many years from now if we're all lucky. Perhaps somebody who is a huge CoinOPS fan that plays all the new SNES/Genesis/etc. roms that are added will convert the videos/artwork and other Xtras to work with your emulators in the future. I would like that. I have a large enough hard drive that it would accomodate it if somebody put the time in. I just have to wrap up my own work in the near future and focus on other things in the real world, so I can't do it myself. There will always be room and methods of distribution available for anybody who puts the work into this endeavor and desires to share it with the community. Edited January 30, 2010 by ressurectionx
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 added * at the end of game thats a console game eg - Super Mario Worldis now Super Mario World* this is just the Displayed name and can be disabled in settings the driver name is unchanged
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 wouldn't it be... SNES_SuperMarioWorld* or something like that?
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 So not in the romname, but in the display name. Gotcha Why would you decide to do that? I'm sure there are probably better ways you could conceive of separating console games from arcade games. I wish this would happen on XPORT emus soon. I really want to display the full synopsis name for the games instead of the filename.
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 you can sort by SNES and Megadrive as shown in Pics 2 3 and 4 they are all lined up the * is there to quickly see what is arcade and what is home like Mortal Kombats etc and it can be disabled if one wants
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 That's cool. If it can be disabled, then there isn't any issue with it at all. You've set up filters though so people can see just Arcade games alone without any console games, right?
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 yes just dont add the games and they wont show is one way but all features are supported like Hot games can be fast added to favsAll Time Classics can be fast added to favscounts the times you played and displaysand times played sortedcan sort by type of games and they are in the list
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 Alot of setting are happen you guys dont know about for sorting they are in discussion at present also prelim for TurboGrafx, Master System and NES added if I want to add them will take another a week or so of sorting.....still to decide but the engines there like always its when I decide to feature freeze to get bug count really low...... as that needs to happen so I dont get any issues as shown with previous builds GUI wise at least...this doesnt happen by accident...you need a massive amount of attention to detail across a massive amount of content
ressurectionx Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Sure... if you don't add the games they won't show. But you've made an option to only display Arcade games, right? Seriously man... your emu is beloved for its ability to play Arcades, and always has been. I respect that you're branching out, but there should be an option that would just filter everything out if somebody had other stuff on accident that they didn't want to see here. I really hope you do make a one-stop-emu-shop with this someday. More power to ya.
