You can use your front end to make a filtered game list for just SNK/NeoGeo games if you want.

NeoRage is old school. ;D

Title: Re: NEORAGE 5.0
Post by: Timoe on October 08, 2006, 08:22:50 am: WinKawaks I think.

I dunno, I have both games on my xbox and they never get played so I'm not too sure.

I prefer Capcom vs Snk II (actually I play Mugen on my cab)

and Metal Slug 4 is my favourite

Post by: wana10 on October 08, 2006, 12:58:00 pm: winkawaks 1.46(most recent one) will do it
mame will now do it
Title: Re: NEORAGE 5.0
Post by: Marky_1979 on October 08, 2006, 02:09:04 pm: I dont have the latest mame version or romset so dont want to change my current set up as that would be very time consuming. The Kawaks emu doesnt recognise the two roms?? anyone know why this is

Post by: Marky_1979 on October 12, 2006, 01:55:49 pm: Any advice folks?
Title: Re: NEORAGE 5.0
Post by: Howard_Casto on October 12, 2006, 03:32:25 pm: You have to update your roms unless you want to go on a wild goose chase looking for a emu that'll actually support those crazy, hacked-up roms you have. That is why I said to use mame. Until mame added support all the roms were hacks that ran in the other emus. The only way to run the games properly is to use the updated mame roms, which probably aren't going to work on neorage due to the fact they are encrypted and it is frikkin 5 years old.

So like I said, use mame and be happy. Once you get the roms, of course, you can use winkawaks and nebula, but I don't know why you would as they aren't exactly command-line friendly.

:soapbox:
I don't know why when I give an answer I have to go back and re-explain myself, people would save themselves a lot of time if they would just do what I suggest.

Listen to Howard. It'll take the world less time for you to update your roms than for someone to find you a compatible emulator for your roms.

Stop it. His ego is big enough without comments like that. Now he will NEVER thing he is wrong. Oh, that is already the case.
