Post by: lantus on October 28, 2011, 08:59:44 PM: Hey guys. Not necessarily related this build but I was wondering if there was a source repository available?

I'm asking because I am knee deep in porting 0.2.97.12 to some big endian platforms and with a new release it makes things really tricky going forward.

I would love to just be able to apply a patch file to update things. Or at least be able to generate/view diffs of what's changed.

Thanks!

It has been discussed, but no one has gotten around to it yet.
You may be able to bribe Barry with beer though.

Post by: iq_132 on November 19, 2011, 02:12:49 AM: I took a look at adding some neocd bios roms.
It uses a couple of undocumented DMA modes, FF89 and F2DD.
FF89 seems to be the same as FFC5? I'm having a hard time with F2DD.

Hmm... F2DD seems to be the same as E2DD? Maybe there's something else going on?

Post by: KaaMoS on November 20, 2011, 05:17:08 PM: Ohh la-la!!!
It does look so beautiful!
So does that (golden) Japanese BIOS!

Congratulations for such advances!! I'm so excited to see how good all of this looks!

I've a little question about Neo-Geo CD...
I know you probably want to keep Neo-Geo CD emulation as equal as possible to the original way in which those games are loaded on Console...
...but, do you think is possible to enable some kind of "acceleration" to game loading? (I mean, those curtains loaded before game starts/shows a new scene).

Thanks!

Thanks

You need to have the NeoGeo BIOS (neogeo.zip) in there as well, with the neocdz.zip

Let me know if you solve your problem :)

SeeYaa!

Got it! My cue file was messed up, tracks were not named right. Crossed Swords 2 music is not working though but at least the game launches now.

Tracks must be WAV, MP3 is not supported, that must be your problem because I personally have tested it and its working just fine :)

Don't just rename mp3 to WAV, make sure you convert them properly and edit the CUE accordingly.

Check my CUE as reference ;)
