      @edmaul69 QT Chdman gui which is a part of the qmc2 package http://qmc2.batcom-it.net/index.php/download

      You still need to hunt down chdman.exe seperately. I could only find it in that killer instinct backup guide website. Unless anyone recommends a later version.
      EDIT: Doh, latest is in the mame package. I'll restart my conversions..good thing I have a 6 core(12 thread) cpu:)
      Re-tested Exile 2 with mame 0.188's chdman.exe..still works.

          @darksavior So strange..I wonder what my problem is then..I know it worked at one point. It says something about the card 3.0 but..I have that..or I wouldn't be able to even start the game in retroarch...shrugs

          Are you sure it was the pce fast core? my setup won't even see a chd with that core..even on a pc..but I could be wrong..

          And yes i am using QT Chdman gui as well...

          On a side note...Crash Team Racing (for the psx) is 605.7 MB cue/bin. pbp format is (and works perfectly..and supported in the psx core) is 372.9 MB. The chd from is 317.9MB (but of course I have no way of testing it..yet..) This is good news though for our PIs..that can only hold 512GB (once they are less than $125.00!) on an sd card. Yeah I know we can use a hard drive but that is just more wires and cords and stuff that can go wrong.. ;)

          People want things easy...but then complain that life is boring...

                updated and working great thank you (ooohh shiny!)

                We have nes and snes and megadrive and N64 controller clones...we need at least a six-button pcengine controller...I feel like the sega police are going to come get me for using the "wrong" controller ;)

                  @akafox i modified all my pc engine controllers for my setup. I recommend the avenue pad 3 and the avenue pad 6. You could probably use an nec avenue pad 6 controller (or any other pc engine controller) with one of these:

                    @akafox Why? No pc-engine game requires a 6 button pad. It's recommended for sf2, but at that point, why not play the arcade version instead? I modified a pce pad with some ps3 chip the size of a quarter that I was never going to use. Pad feels a bit too loose but I think it's more due to the wear and tear. I bought it used. I wouldn't mind buying a new pce/tg16 2button pad, but they're impossible to get. There's one ebay seller that sells "oem" new but they're too much $ .

                      @darksavior that is not correct. All of the pc engine cd "arcade" games require a 6 button controller as they are all 4 button games. And saying "why not play the arcade version" if we all did that why play any games that arent on mame? I enjoy playing the same game on several consoles. I dont like confining myself to one version.

                        @edmaul69 I like to play the definitive version of games. Not limiting myself at all. There is the rare occasion where the console ports are better. Like Rush N Attack/Green Beret. In some cases, completely different games that share the name only. Ports of arcade fighting games? Not that I know of. There might a few that might add extra characters (sfa3) or maybe different art for endings (sf2 snes).

                        Back in the day when these games we're released I would've been fine, but there's so many choices now with emulation that I have the luxury to choose the best version. Usually people go to the ports for nostalgia, not because it's "better".

                          Well that is what I mean..why no tg-16 or celeco..or even intellivision usb controllers?

                          We have everything else...yeah I know most games for the pc engine was 2-buttons..but why not get a 6-button.."so I have one" well I didn'tmean to start a "fight" i'll use the genesis pad...I can use a nes pad for two button..but no turbo. Yeah I can use the genesis...

                            @akafox here are a 2 player and 1 player adapters for intellivision and coleco plus most 9 pin controllers. The 2 player ultimate pc interface does more than the single player vision-daptor. (Both made by same person) I use these adapters. Best adapters made.

                            ultimate pc interface

                            2600-daptor

                            5200-daptor

                              Just updated lr-beetle-supergrafx from binary and still not updated. Fixed by installing from source.

                                    So i fixed my issue...did a crc check on the syscard.pce bios...it was the wrong checksum. Finding the correct checksum bios solved my problems.
