ressurectionx Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 I understand what you're saying man. I'm just not ready to talk with you yet because there is still testing and compiling romsets to do on my end. There's no need to IM each other at this point because we'd just be wasting our time right now. I just may have a question or two while I'm setting that up, and as you can see, people are respecting my wishes here and not blasting this thread. I'll state my question differently this time. How many working games are there in CoinOPS currently, that are Arcade Games?
ressurectionx Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 Cool thanks. That must mean that I've filtered out a lot of the crap. I'll be happy when I make only the adds and the clone changes to US roms that I'm planning. I dare anyone to find a better version after I'm done. If I don't have any more questions about setup you won't hear from me again in this thread, but you might. Otherwise, I'll let you know when I'm done in PM and we'll talk about adding this stuff for the future so I don't have to do it all again if I decide to upgrade my CoinOPS emu in the future. Thanks,~Rx
BritneysPAIRS Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 no worries to patch it in right when you are done....there are a few files you should update....cfgs = controls .... romstatus.ini and vm.txt/vmhidef.txt if they are big games that need mem...catfile.ini as well for all the catagories....nv`s to skip past the bad first boots.... plus leave me a list of the anlog sensitivty adjustments and ill patch it and then you can release a version if you wish.....2300 is all games so I dont like it hence I dont use it...it has 500 mahong 100 nes arcade games and lots and lots of rubbish.... new versions though have a different welcome message now on first boot...... but this will fix all your issues.... you should upload the xtra games video and pics and ill sort it out for you....maybe you can help with the other files
ressurectionx Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) 1) I'm updating configs. If I did anything to the control configs or analog sensitivity I highlighed it in blue. (Can I just send you the configs for all the controller fixes?) 2) I don't know how to do the vm.txt files. Can we get some more games working right with this? 3) Romstatus is something I would work on if I knew you weren't currently updating it, so I'll let you know when I'm ready and ask you for your newest one. 4) Does the emulator make nv files to skip the boot after the first boot? And yes... there are tons of mahjong and quiz games, nes and clones and other BS parent roms that are not included in what I'm adding. I'm sure that all adds up to the tons that aren't included, besides the 300 or so that I've tested that just don't work. Edited March 8, 2010 by ressurectionx
BritneysPAIRS Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 nv is saving of the ram...it will save the skip first check stuff normally.... romstatus is just all time classic and favs...its not on going...id only change or add ones to this if you show me some info that it was a top game...then I can add it to the automatic classic / hot game selector yes vm and vmhidef make large games virtual memory work correctly I thought you would make a full list you seem to like every single thing there is....wierd to see your excluding stuff...

Good to have that info. I'll send you my configs and nv files. I'll put all the OUT OF MEMORY roms togehter in a section for you to easily see and make changes based off of that. Yeah... usually I do everything, but I've got a week before release. I think what I'm doing is pretty extensive for things worth adding. I did a lot of that work years ago, but I forgot a lot of what I did and used the videos to decide which games I would try to include/change.
ressurectionx Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 Cool man. I'll get back to you if I have any questions or if I get it all done from here on my own. Later,~Rx
BritneysPAIRS Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 to do sensitivity changes by default...you need the sources changed make a list ill do them
BritneysPAIRS Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 also rx I need hi quality videos for me SNES and Mdrive games.....from the dat......can you get me those they arnt so good in SD
ressurectionx Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 I believe I only have SD. Cbagy made some Genesis videos in HD, but most of my videos are the ones you've already got from my sets.
PhilExile Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Hi BP, Just curious, how likely do you think an option launch a game at its native resolution will be to make its way into the next version of CoinOps? For Instance, Bionic Commando would launch at 640x480 since it would be the equivalent of 320x240 at 480i/p. Thanks again for the great emulator!
BritneysPAIRS Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 I wont be adding that feature although its a 10sec do(720p menu luanching into 480p/i games)...I dont see any point.... cheers RX videos are only low res at present but its all good
ressurectionx Posted March 9, 2010 Author Posted March 9, 2010 Yeah... unfortunately, when we were deciding what resolution would be the best it was decided that the lower quality was preferable over the larger quality because it was determined that there was no benefit to having higher quality videos, so even most of them that aren't emumovies are not as high quality as I'd like them. I didn't have any say in that decision and I just went along with what I was told at the time because I don't know anything about that stuff. I've since seen cbagy and bigby's videos which definitely look a lot better in the XPORT emulators. If we had to record and replace HQ videos for all the original videos I got from emu movies, you're also talking another 3 or 4 thousand videos that scene members would have had to make and that would have taken forever, probably adding a year or more to the release date. I hear that emumovies is now working on making HQ video replacements for everything, as well as working on a way to normalize the volume when they're all through (which will be a HUGE improvement). I'd recommend looking there for better quality videos in the future. Hopefully somebody integrates these into the Xtras when they're finally released and normalized. I just don't have the time to be working on this anymore since it's all or nothing with me. Later,~Rx P.S. I already separated all the OUT OF MEMORY games on the spreadsheet if you wanted to take a look at them or let me know what I should do if it's something I can fix on my own.
