Topic: Hack Kof 2000 (Evolution v1.3) on Mame 0.235 missing slashes and text

[Djan]

Hi, I'm trying to add this HBMame hack from kof2000 (evolution v1.3) to mame 0.235

The problem is that there are graphical errors, that is, there are no graphics, part of the text does not appear, nor bars etc... :/

Change I made I removed this part: NEO_SFIX_MT_512K

And I put this:

Code: [Select]

/* NEO_SFIX_MT_512K */
ROM_Y_ZOOM

/* The Encrypted Boards do not have an s1 rom, data for it comes from the Cx ROMs */
ROM_REGION( 0x80000, "cslot1:fixed", 0 )

If I remember correctly, FIX is usually the text areas (HUD, text, life bars, etc - stuff that doesn't move aka FIXed)
removing the NEO_SFIX_MT_512K section probably broke that.  Since regular MAME doesn't have that, we have to figure out what it means.
Looking in hbmame's includes/neogeo.h:
The macro decodes to "NEO_SFIX_MT( 0x80000 )", which decodes to 2 other macros

#define ROM_Y_ZOOM \
   ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "zoomy", 0 ) \
   ROM_LOAD( "000-lo.lo", 0x00000, 0x20000, CRC(5a86cff2) SHA1(5992277debadeb64d1c1c64b0a92d9293eaf7e4a) )

#define NEO_SFIX_MT(bytes) \
   ROM_Y_ZOOM \
   ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "fixedbios", 0 ) \
   ROM_LOAD( "sfix.sfix",  0, 0x20000, CRC(c2ea0cfd) SHA1(fd4a618cdcdbf849374f0a50dd8efe9dbab706c3) ) \
   ROM_REGION( bytes, "fixed", ROMREGION_ERASE00 )

So, to fix your driver, try this:

Code: [Select]

[Djan]

hello, first thank you very much for your attention dink, i added the drive you modified, but it didn't work :/

sequence of errors attached:


resolved with this change:

Code: [Select]

// this part expanded from macro's
ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "spritegen:zoomy", 0 ) //  spritegen:
ROM_LOAD( "000-lo.lo", 0x00000, 0x20000, CRC(5a86cff2) SHA1(5992277debadeb64d1c1c64b0a92d9293eaf7e4a) )
the game opens, but it still has the same problem :/

[dink]

hmmm, try putting:
ROM_Y_ZOOM

In there directly after the program roms, and remove:
  ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "spritegen:zoomy", 0 ) //  spritegen:
  ROM_LOAD( "000-lo.lo", 0x00000, 0x20000, CRC(5a86cff2) SHA1(5992277debadeb64d1c1c64b0a92d9293eaf7e4a) )

What do you have for the GAME() line?
Perhaps try changing the Machine field from kof2000 to kof2000n ? (or vice-versa)

best regards,
- dink

[Djan]

that's exactly what I did I put ROM_Y_ZOOM the game works but the problem persists.

The GAME() line looks exactly like this:

Code: [Select]

GAME( 2000, kof2kevo3,  kof2000,  neobase,  neogeo, mvs_led_state,   empty_init, ROT0, "FCHT-EGHT", "The King of Fighters 2000 (Evolution v1.3)", MACHINE_SUPPORTS_SAVE )

I've also made these changes in the Machine field (kof2000 to kof2000n) and vice versa, but then the game doesn't even open, mame closes!

I no longer know where to change :/ it seems to me to be a problem elsewhere in mame's code!

[dink]

Well, don't lose hope, maybe Robert (hbmame guy) or iq_132 has an idea.

best regards,
- dink

[Djan]

Thank you so much for your support - dink

I hope they see this post, I look forward to this solution. 

[Robert]

According to your crosspost at mameworld, it looks like you have fixed it.

[Djan]

hello, by the way are you the Robbbert of mameWorld ?
I still couldn't get it, Robbbert from mameWorld told me that these extra macros are to tidy up and clarify the neogeo listing in HBmame "NEO_SFIX_MT_512K" and that these macros are not in Mame.
I was sad :/ I thought this crusade would be simpler, however I'm losing hope already.

[Robert]

You'll never graduate to game hacker if you give up so easily.

Just replace the NEO_SFIX_MT_512K part with
 ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "fixedbios", 0 )
   ROM_LOAD( "sfix.sfix",  0, 0x20000, CRC(c2ea0cfd) SHA1(fd4a618cdcdbf849374f0a50dd8efe9dbab706c3) )
   ROM_REGION( 0x80000, "fixed", ROMREGION_ERASE00 )

There needs to be a ROM_Y_ZOOM in there too, but only once.


edit: in MAME some of the rom regions will need to be prefixed with cslot1: - this isn't needed in HBMAME (because HBMAME doesn't support slots). You'll have to try it out by looking at other sets in MAME.

[Djan]

Hi Robert, yes, this was the first modification I made to the driver, I analyzed the hbmame driver and noticed that on the mame 235 drive there was no such part NEO_SFIX_MT_512K, it was replaced by this one:

Code: [Select]

        ROM_Y_ZOOM

ROM_REGION( 0x80000, "cslot1:fixed", 0 )
ROM_FILL( 0x000000, 0x20000, 0x000000 )
ROM_REGION( 0x20000, "fixedbios", 0 )
ROM_LOAD( "sfix.sfix", 0x000000, 0x20000, CRC(c2ea0cfd) SHA1(fd4a618cdcdbf849374f0a50dd8efe9dbab706c3) )
Based on mame 235's kof2000, I copied this part and put it in the kof2kevo3 driver but even so the fixed part of text and bars still doesn't appear.

Tried to compile other old versions of mame too but error persists.
If it's not asking too much of you, try compiling this kof2kevo3 driver on mame 235

It seems to me to be a problem elsewhere in the mame 235 code.

thank you very much for your attention!

[Djan]

Here is the log for study. Here in this configuration the rom works, but it lacks the bars and texts.
Detail in the GAME() line in Machine is (neobase)

Detail in the log, I think it may be important, in the line (Starting Neo Geo Standard Carts ':cslot1:rom') the kof2000 protection is not activated.

Here is the log for study. Here in this configuration the rom does not work and the mame locks and closes.
Detail here in the GAME() line in Machine is (kof2000)

Detail in the log, I think it may be important, in the line (Starting Neo Geo KoF 2000 SMA Cart ':cslot1:sma_kof2k') the kof2000 protection is activated but the mame closes.
Anyway I think it might be interesting for those who have experience in mame to identify this problem of not working this hack of hbmame.

Hello, I added the file 257d-s1.bin CRC (38901d4d) in the driver and got an improvement in the game, I removed the LOAD part and put the S1 file, the texts are now showing, the bars appear but with errors as you can see in the attachment below

I noticed in hbmame's init for the game, it actually decrypts and fills in the fix area.  This is probably the right solution, good luck.

Hi, dink I solved the problem as follows I copied the C's and m1 files from kof2000 and changed the Machine field in GAME() to kof2000n and that's it. 

I have another problem, I'm trying to install another kof2000 hack, this one has NEO_SFIX_MT_512K and an S1

There is no problem in the compilation but when I start the game the error happens!

Code: [Select]

Driver kof2000s45 (file neogeo.cpp): 3 errors, 0 warnings

   ROM '257hc44.s1' extends past the defined memory region
   ROM '257hc44.s1' extends past the defined memory region
   ROM '257hc44.s1' extends past the defined memory region

Fatal error: Error in RomModule definition: out of memory region space

The driver is the one below, I believe the problem is there in "ROM_CONTINUE"
