Topic: King of Fighters 2003, The (Set 2)

[csog]

Hi everybody!

I need help adding King of Fighters 2003 to FBA 2.95.23. I've succesfully compiled my own build with the changes suggested on this thread:

http://neo-source.com/index.php?topic=407.0

but the game appears as "not working" in the emulator, I load it anyway and it loads fine but then I just get a black screen.

This is the set I have, its the MVS version (? AFAIK):

271-c1c.bin             b1dc25d0
271-c2c.bin             d5362437
271-c3c.bin             0a1fbeab
271-c4c.bin             87b19a0c
271-c5c.bin             704ea371
271-c6c.bin             20a1164c
271-c7c.bin             189aba7f
271-c8c.bin             20ec4fdc
271-m1_decrypted.bin    0e86af8f
271-m1c.bin             f5515629
271-p1c.bin             530ecc14
271-p2c.bin             fd568da9
271-p3_decrypted.bin    59d376da
271-p3c.bin             aec5b4a9
271-v1c.bin             ffa3f8c7
271-v2c.bin             5382c7d1

any help would be appreciated.

Do you have kf2k3pcb working?  If so, please post the static int ...Init part.  And the init for kof2003 (mvs), and I'll see what I can do for you.

Nope, I just have the kof2003 MVS version romset.

  And the init for kof2003 (mvs), and I'll see what I can do for you.

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean. Like I said I just followed the instructions given in that thread but I'm pretty much clueless about all the programming stuff sorry. Could you be more specific?

Thanks for the help.

lol I think you may be better off using ferchogtx's source ( http://fbap.1emulation.com )
There are a buttload of games in there and working, just strip out what you don't need.

I already tried FBA Plus, but it seems like I'm missing a rom... I checked with clrmamepro and it says I'm missing the 271-m1c_decrypted.bin rom for the kof2003 MVS version romset. I assume it's the decrypted version of the 271-m1c.bin rom, right? if so, is there a way to decrypt the m1c rom to obtain the rom I'm missing?

Thanks again for the help.

lol, I meant you should try to compile fba plus.  If you're not happy with that, I can walk you through adding kof2003 (mvs) in a regular fba 0.2.95.23 source build.

Also, you can disable the crc checking in fbap. So if you want, you can just copy 271-m1_decrypted.bin and rename it 271-m1c_decrypted.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Renaming the m1_decrypted rom worked fine, thanks. Just one question, I've been playing the game for a few minutes and so far so good, but does the missing m1c_decrypted rom has any noticeable effect on the game? i.e. graphic or sound glitches, etc?

Csog: no, not really. They're only different files (and that's why they differ CRCs), but they share the same code (Z80) for the same game, so don't worry.

Oh I see, thanks for the info Death Metal... and also thanks iq_132 for the help.
