Holy smokes, now that's a list! Nice work! I am not very good at navigating which source drivers belong to which games to retrieve names and hashes to build out the DAT so I might need help to locate the correct files.

All the games that use the dkong and dkongjr samples are just sharing the same code, the update to the samples should be fine for all the games

Thanks I've updated the dkong & dkongjr samples and clones. 2 down... :)

Yip spot on

@riverstorm Hi, could you also make a separate DAT with only the new/changed ROMs and samples (like @markwkidd said) ? I have already set up my Mame2003 with primarily Parent and working ROMs only, if I run this new merged DAT I will have no idea of the specific new versions needed etc. And if you gather all the new only samples into a DAT we will know the exact versions needed from Twistys site.

Yeah that shouldn't be a big issue. To do something like that it would require replacing them in your source directory.

It might take some time to work through the list being around the holidays and it's quite a bit larger than I originally had thought. I thought maybe a dozen or so games but the more updates the better! :)

markwkidd

Nice! Once the 'hacks' DAT is ready for use I would like to see it get added to the MAME 2003 github repository in the same metadata folder as the 'standard' MAME 2003 DAT I linked above.

@gamez-fan - Which version or both work for Hyper Crash (C and D)? Also Counter Run has 3 but 2 show as not working.

Thanks, that's how I added then thought I should verify. One more question quick question I am not seeing the neogeo.c source.

Denjin Makai WIP https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/230 ... 238
Detail : https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/230

@gamez-fan Denjin Makai needs a couple of changes here so the sound will work this will also benefit SD Gundam Psycho, Salamander no Kyoui no other Seibu games will be affected
The game wont pan the sound via the two speakers by default for some reason so let's make it so

Darksavior

Any chances Night Slashers might be ported? It doesn't run well on mame2010, so maybe 2003 can. Also, Ninja Baseball Batman has some audio bugs on 2003 but it's fine on 2010.

Yeah Night Slashers good game one of my faves, i have some special code via iq_132 which gets the game playable with speedups in MAME84 we get around 25fps for this
one on the Xbox so not full speed but totally playable right enough, you do have the Deco32 driver in MAME-2003 but it would require a fair amount of graft to backport
the needed code plus im not sure if it'll all be compatable with this older core.

Anyway Deco32 based games Captain America, Fighters History, Night Slashers etc etc will be playable in the next FBA release and i managed to talk iq_132
into optimizing the video code so these games will perform better on lesser hardware like the xbox or the Rpi, so wait a month or so and see how the game
plays in FBA and if it needs another boost i have a special driver with further optimizations i can happily share with the Rpi FBA dev's currantly i get 28fps
with Night Slashers on Xbox FBA.

Oh forgot about this one can you explain the sound issues in a little more detail..??

Darksavior

@gamez-fan When you fight the 1st boss “windy plane”, the audio is different. It’s been a while to know the specifics but that’s where it’s noticeable. Few minutes to get to him so it won’t take long.

UDb23

@gamez-fan Getting sound in "Deep Scan" (/invinco) as previously requested, is it too complicated to implement?

Riverstorm

@gamez-fan Are all of these working to add? None of the decrypted, plus versions or 2003 have SHA1 information only CRC. "The King of Fighters 2001" and "The King of Fighters 2002" have complete info.

"The King of Fighters 2001"
"The King of Fighters 2001 (Decrypted C)"
"The King of Fighters 2001 Plus"
"The King of Fighters 2002"
"The King of Fighters 2002 (Decrypted C)"
"The King of Fighters 2002 Plus"
"The King Of Fighters 2003 (Decrypted C)"

EDIT: The same for Metal Slug 4 and 5 are the decrypted versions working to add?
