Title: Getting Outfoxies to work
Post by: skyblast on December 18, 2008, 06:48:41 pm

I  have the 128b MAME emulator, the 8.2 meg Outfoxies rom and the 267kb
Japanese version rom. 

I says it may be missing one or more roms or chd images.  I'm not familiar with
chd files so I could be missing something obvious.

Thanks.

CHD = compress hard drive.  (image of the HD from the original game)

Where do you find them?  :dunno

I thought CHD stood for that too, apparently it actually stands for Compressed Hunks of Data ; since its not just hard drives but CD images as well

And laserdisks.  ;D 

FWIW, FYI, it started as standing for "compressed hard drive", but was changed to "compressed hunks of data" soon after when CDs and laserdisks were remarked to also exist and would be added in the future (now past).

I'm able to play this game using MAME .110; maybe you could get a "roll-back" verison of the rom? Or use CLRmamePRO?
