@DrUnKeN_TiGeR Is it just neo geo games you want?
-
yes mostly the metal slug games and the megaman games and marvel vs games
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR Then... I'm sorry I can't really point you in the right direction. I was banned from this forum for 4 days for helping someone asking similar questions. Google is your friend.
-
i have them already i cant get the emulator to work
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR it works. Do none of the ROMs work in your set? Are you using a full set?
-
none work no im not using full set just picked some from a list
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR which set?
-
FB Alpha (0.2.97.39)
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR sorry, I know...MAME does not work in that way!
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR You need All of the set for it to work. Get a 0.78 set. It is a non -merged set.
-
so its not like nes or snes where you can just a pick a few games i have to get every game available to get it to work?
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR nope. Not unless you use the 0.78 ROMset which is a non-merged set. A non -merged set contains stand-alone ROMs. The others, ie a split or merged set rely on code from other ROMs. Sometimes they are totally unrelated games but from the same manufacturer of hardware or game developer... it's complicated...
-
OHHHHH ok so what emu do i need to run that on? AND what is it 0.2.97.78?
-
Also, make sure you've the proper BIOS file. When I was trying to get NeovGeo games to run (using the Neo Geo emulator) it was a lot of Googling until I came across the proper BIOS file what would work. That and making sure I had it in both the BIOS folder and in the same folder my Neo Geo roms were in. Maybe your issue is something similar?
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR just "find" a 0.78 Reference romset. Use the "arcade" folder on RetroPie and set the emulatotor as lr-mame 2003.. you will be good to go. I have 88 games at the minute.
-
do i still try to boot them from the neogeo menu?
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR forget all the stuff at the start. That is for FBA. Just look for "0.78" romset. 2003 MAME.
-
thanks ill work on it
-
@DrUnKeN_TiGeR It's actually quite easy when it clicks in your head. I want to help you. I just think you are assuming that stuff works like you think it "should". MAME does not work in that way. A lot of files are shared in ROM sets. If you don't have a full set you may be missing a vital part to run your game. The only way around this is to use a non-merged set (stand-alone). These can be used as individual ROMs because they conttain all the info needed to run all by themselves. Do you get what I am saying?

@DrUnKeN_TiGeR Fba works fine here. Your romset isn't the correct one or maybe errors were caused when transferring. Try updating fba too.
