@darksavior
but how can i check if its work ? metal slug 4 and 5 should work but they wont. i assuming im doing something wrong (i've tried several different rom files).Hi sounds like your Roms are incorrect, head over to a site called
CENSORED

@gamez-fan sorry, but please don't mention rom sites: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2/forum-rules

@gamez-fan at least tell me which mame set i should aim for ;) regards
-
@xflesk Please read and find out yourself which romset you need: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Arcade
There's no guesswork for this. Using random roms will be an endless struggle. In the special case for Night Slashers and newly added games is to try the rom from mame2003's romset first. I think I used mame2010's version of Night Slashers but I don't remember. Neogeo games have been working since forever so that just means you're using the wrong rom version.
A side note...It's quite annoying when random youtubers still recommend to do this. I've been pointing it out to some how wrong they are but they have so much pride and arrogance about it because it worked for them. They got lucky the roms they used haven't been altered in almost 15yrs so they worked in mame-2003.

The site in question is not a download site per say it's an Xbox dev forum, anyway please just remove my account from here as i've had two reprimands
in the space of a couple of weeks now and yet i've never had one telling off on the many other sites i've been a member of for over a decade now!!!.A website with a draconian attitude to Romlinks and where you get a ban threat for a miner sweary word is not a somewhere i wish to hangout
over and out. -
you see @darksavior
this topic is about adding "non standard" mame 2003 drivers. i do know exacly which rom set mame 2003 supports ;)
but since kind people adding more unofficial drivers then its clear we need roms other then from mame 2003 set (good example is mslug 4 and 5 which not appear on official list). thats why i've asked (kindly) from which mame set are new added roms ? -
@xflesk They're described in the docs:

@mitu thank you
i saw a list, i was reading github about mame2003 etc, but i cannot find anything about changes which are made here.
the list is only about official 0.78 romset. i just dont know where to look for it.
thank you anyway ;) -
New working game Rohga Armor Force https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/276
@gamez-fan Last of the Data East work hook up the third input plus dip settings and fix the sound for
Rohga Armor Force some changes im going to make in Deco prot will make this game
fully playable -
Big update for Kaneko16 : https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/284
@gamez-fan Code via iq_132 reworked for MAME-2003 here is the full WIP.........
Kaneko Toybox and Calc3 MCU simulation added to the driver which gets some more
games playable, i then added a couple of extra games some rare prototypes that were dumped
a couple of years back and finally updated the sound and video handling for some nice
improvements in that dept.when rolling the driver back i made a point of keeping the original Roms from MAME78 for the
games that worked previously that means only Roms for the new working games will be requiredOriginal working games no functional change unless stated
The Berlin Wall
Magical Crystals
Blaze On
Great 1000 Mile Rally (Fixed the parent as it didn't work new Rom required)
Great 1000 Mile Rally (Evolution Model)
Great 1000 Mile Rally (USA)
Sand Scorpian (I fixed the background gfx game now playable)
Mille Miglia 2: Great 1000 Miles RallyNew Working games Roms will be needed unless stated
Bakuretsu Breaker (Rom hasn't changed)
Bonk's Adventure
Blood Warrior
Pack'n Bang Bang
Wing Force
B.Rap Boys..??
B.Rap Boys Special..??
Shogun Warriors..??
Fujiyama Buster.???? denotes im unsure if those ones will work as they didn't in my test build but they may do
when using this MAME core i guess we'll find out if or when users give em a go.Forgot about this driver for Pocket Gal DX https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/288
@gamez-fan Might as well add it here to further take advantage of the recent Data East update, i'll need
to hook in the prot and declare the new games and driver.
This is the last Data East driver which is backportable from my sources as with deco_mlc.c
and deco156.c the Arm CPU is not compatable with changes required to make the games
work, and with regards to backfire.c and dblwing.c some incompatable port tag to handler
code is the fly in the ointment.Bubble Bobble and Operation Wolf https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/issues/292
Im not going to add support for any more new games to this core but i still have many
improvements i can backport like say an updated Bubble Bobble driver which has the
full dump of the MCU meaning the Emulation of this game would be 100%.In this MAME core when playing Bubble Bobble the enemy movements are all wrong
plus some bonus pickups and the timer dont act correctly it's a similar story with
Operation Wolf i have a full simulation of the MCU which amongst other things means
the enemy has found you special levels and the boss at the end of the jungle level will
now trigger plus there is kill count in each level and when you hit it a barrage of new
enemies will come at ya.This code for the above should be easy enough to add to this core or was that just
famous last words :)Add proper MCU dump for Bubble Bobble https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/293
0.107u3: Trinity and Nicola Salmoria added support for real Bubble Bobble MCU. Added M6801 (1MHz) CPU4 and TAITO JPH1011P MCU rom (a78-01.17).

ISSUE : NMK16.c https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/issues/298
@gamez-fan The nmk16 driver is in a sorry state at this point in the MAME dev cycle, alotta games dont have sound
or bad sound plus there are protection and graphical problems in quite a few others, so im going to attempt to backport mine which will sort all of the above plus add support for a couple more games.
The later nmk16.c has the Afega games and code to Emulate them rolled into the driver since these
are rubbish games and to significantly cutdown on the workload im going to strip out this code
and these games will remain as they were in this core not working in afega.c
NMK16 WIP 5 Stages
Add NMK004 machine this will Emulate the sound "done"
Strip Afega code from the driver and video "done"
Rollback my nmk16 driver to MAME-2003 codebase "ongoing"
Test all the games after the update "todo"
After full testing port the code to this core "todo" -
Hookup the nmk004 machine https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/305
NMK16 big update https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-libretro/pull/300
@gamez-fan Code via iq_132 and reworked for the MAME-2003 core

of the changes which have been fully tested beforehand.......Now playable

It looks like @gamez-fan reverted all his work and changed his name to ghost over at Github. Kind of a shame as he had implemented some nice changes and updates. Here's the completed DAT. Not that it will do much good now.

Looks like support was recently added for 'Donkey Kong II Jumpman Returns'. I've been wanting to play that on the Pi for a while now.

Hey Media nice addition I added it to the DAT.
I did finish 11/22/63 a while back...finally. I enjoyed it but to much character development for me. My first King novel as I usually just watch his movies. Nothing like a good horror flick. ;) They could have cut the middle 600 pages out and kept the first and last 300. It's was a fairly long book. I am quickly reading through The Maze Runner series before the last movie comes out. I am on book 3 of 6 but I think they only plan on 3 movies as they weren't to popular. I like the books and the build up of the looking-for-a-cure-memory-wipes is thought provoking. I just hope the answer is not a let down. 3 books in and there's very little know as to the why they did it to these two groups of kids but it seems to be the main premise of each book.
I combed through this thread and I think I added everything from here so the DAT is current up to around January 1st. Here's the game list and ROMs of around 80 to 90.
There are a few ROM files I was never able to locate used for the decrypted versions of Metal Slug 4 & 5. Also Pochi & Nyaa plus the decrypted version. 1 ROM from each archive.
Missing ROMs:
Metal Slug 4 (Decrypted C) [system: Neo-Geo - folder: mslug4nd - parent: mslug4 - size: 70mb] missing rom: ms4n_s1.rom [size: -] [CRC32: c4f4ed0e] Metal Slug 5 (Decrypted C) [system: Neo-Geo - folder: mslug5nd - parent: mslug5 - size: 82mb] missing rom: ms5n_c4.rom [size: -] [CRC32: 899fb2af] Pochi & Nyaa [system: Neo-Geo - folder: pnyaa - size: 23mb] missing rom: 267-v1d.bin [size: -] [CRC32: 1ac7db71] Pochi & Nyaa (Decrypted C) [system: Neo-Geo - folder: pnyaan - parent: pnyaa - size: 23mb] missing rom: 267-v1d.bin [size: -] [CRC32: 1ac7db71] missing rom: pnyaa_s1.rom [size: -] [CRC32: 88ffbb15]

I couldn't agree more.
hey could have cut the middle 600 pages out and kept the first and last 300.
My uncle has read all of King's books and that might very well be the criticism I hear from him the most. I've read a few myself, 11/22/63 included, and he does tend to be unnecessarily over-descriptive which adds a lot to the weight of his books.
I am quickly reading through The Maze Runner series
That series has escaped me, but I've been meaning to check it out. It sounds like something I might like.

That's probably a better way of wording it. I knew more about "Jake & Sadie" then I needed to know to make for a good story and some other pieces just seemed to be background filler with nothing to do with the main plot. It's ok for books but movies just give me enough background to make them interesting/care and keep the pace moving. Make those 2 hours interesting. :)
I've read almost every Louis L'Amour book and he does something similar-ish that I always found interesting. If he described a canyon, cave, water hole or a certain piece of country, etc. he made it geographically & historically accurate as possible. He would do a lot of research before writing.
I can't make no promises on The Maze Runner...yet...but if you read the first book you'll know if you want to continue to the next and learn about the "Flare". Side note Ready Player One is shaping up to be interesting and looking forward to seeing it in another month or so.

I'll give it a look for sure. I'm excited for 'Ready Player One' as well. Everyone I know keeps saying they hope it turns out better than 'Ender's Game', but that project was plagued with issues from the beginning. RPO seems to have had a mostly trouble-free production and as you say, it appears to have shaped up well. Here's hoping it'll rock the socks.
