http://www.imrtechnology.ngemu.com/neocdlist.htm Check that before doing the same work over again link. Those were listed as not working.

But i do have a report of last blade working and CDDA as well. have to confirm but this was using the real cd.

Hi,

Lol, forgot about the list. Sorry. According to it none of the games I listed work anyway lol. Ah yes.....the benifits of reading the list. I don't know if it is the fact it's a rip or not though. I only say this because it does load on the PC version. (not flawlessly though. The menu is all weirded out.) I will have to find those games on Ebay or something and try and get them. (I am hooked on the first one now) Are there cases where the PC version loads things the DC one won't? If so, sorry again. (Thanks for replying.) Wish you luck on your projects. Just wanted to try and help. I will remember to check that list from now on though. I forgot it was even there. (yeah, enthusiasm got the best of me.)

Thats fine link mate. Should be the same as the pc / dc version but as you know CDDA does not work on every game on the dc version but pretty much does on the pc version.

Hi again,

Once again........I am dense.......sorry. Thank you again for the info. I look forward to when all the games work

Having a blast on the ones that do. Just went over to Ebay. Was gonna check on a system.......Ouch. The prices are insane lol. The games however look like it depends completely on which one. I think I will look into some of the online game shops also. (I am not really green to video games just Neo Geo...anything Neo Geo lol. I am actually a collector of Sega, Nintendo, Atari and many others. (I am only really resorting to rips at the moment because I am flat broke.) (O, how the mighty have fallen...) Anyway, thanks again for all the work man. I love the features in this. In fact I have Bleemtcast for GT2 and I like Neo CD's features better. (saves in no time and loads like lightning

not to mention the CD loading time......makes some DC games look slow.)

Yeah I tryed to get every thing feeling nice. I know for me it gives a nice feeling to just see it boot them up and swap and play with out long menus and selecting this and that. Boot disk style is really best for CD system. Thanks again. For your support on the project. Enjoying it and using it is a good gift to me.

Just dont talk about ripps what you do in your own house no one's bidness lol

well, i think the BEST possible way would be to rip the neocd game and burn the emulator files onto it as a boot track, like that one guy did...

but as you said, that's nobody's business

.

anyway, ian, sorry for asking yet again (you deserve more of a break than this post implies), but since this topic is seeing some action again... how is SFX coming??

Small code change for Ian:

gfx priority fix courtesy of lantus (xbox porter):

change line 233 of video.c (slightly after unlock surface in video_draw_screen1)

Code: Select all

if (((t1 & 0x40) == 0) && neogeo_prio_mode)

and add

Code: Select all

extern int neogeo_prio_mode;

to neocd.h

Seems to sort out the strange priority in games ive got and reportedly solves problems in crossed swords 2, Viewpoint and Samurai Showdown acording to Lantus.
Hopefully this wont break anything else.

Hmm, if that doesn't break anything else, very cool.

whoohoo, so that could fix the gun turret bug in metal slug.

and the speed is at a very nearly acceptable level (i can beat the game and enjoy it, which says a lot), so...sound!

no I dont know where the gun turret bug comes from, its not a problem in the PC version.

It mostly fixes things where the background appears over the rest of the sprites briefly in a few games.

Thanks giving it a try.

Yeah fixes all games with those problems including Blues journey and Magic lord.

And other's it seems to have a sligth impact on speed.

Alexvrb · Post by **Alexvrb** » Fri May 28, 2004 7:10 pm

As long as it doesn't break anything else, I think it is probably worth it.

Post by **Christuserloeser** » Fri May 28, 2004 7:19 pm

Anyhow, that's nice to hear: Magican Lord, Blues Journey, lil speed up to

Ian Micheal · Post by **Ian Micheal** » Fri May 28, 2004 7:34 pm

Speed went down with the fix slightly. i had to make it up with a compiler setting. Seems to be faster all round Very small speed up. 1 to 4 fps .

Hi.

I wonder to know if the people who tested "League Bownling" played with a backup or the real game ?

Cuz i tried two backup with the emu and they work well.
But i try the two original games i have and both dun work

(Samurai Shodown 4 & King of Fighters '96) both on the playable list so i just wonder if the problem come from me or i dun know (to not buy others games if original dun work on my version

)

Thx a lot.

P.D: i?ve also Fatal fury 3, Art of fighting 2, Super sidekicks, Kof 94, samurai showdown IV original and both of these loads well
Just check the topics or in the docs folder for info.

Yes it does load real neogeo cds. Does depend on your batch number this member for example loads all there real cds with out fault.

Yup real disks load but does depend on the batch number ive been told. Also only use new version like 9.2t at my site old one's use and old mame cpu core.
