Hi i am pretty new to the emulator stuff, but since i grew up in the 80's i had my fair share of arcade experience. So i found out about mame and it is great to play the games i played in my childhood. But it seems mame 0.149 cant run any cps2 or neogeo games, or am i doing something wrong? I ve got the neo geo bios and i use parent roms. If someone has a pointer wich i m clearly overseeing you ll get your place in arcade heaven.
-
What error do you receive from MAME?
-
It says missing rom or chd but checked that out and since they run on kawaks the roms should be fine. but i m using standard mame 0.149 since my laptop doesnt support 64bit one could it be that?
-
I don't think kawaks roms are the same as the MAME ones. I would try to track down the actual MAME romsets.
-
I am sure they are the same roms.
-
One thing for sure I learned LONG AGO........if MAME says your missing files, 100% you are missing the files.
-
Audit them in Mame32, it will usually show you the name of the file missing.
-
So i tried mame32 with cyberbots: full metal madness and it says rom check passed. but it wont run on mame 0.149.
None of you have the same problem?

what is the exact message it gives you when you try and run it?
-
Ok I just tried the same rom from my .148 setup (working) and it is not working in .149.
What is missing is the qsound.bin file.
It seem that mame dev added quite a lot of devices roms (kinda like bioses) with more recent versions.
Here is a list I found:
22vp931
bsmt2000
h63484
ldv1000
mb90082
midssio
mie
mpeg573
namco50
namco51
namco52
namco53
namco54
namco62
pr8210
qsound
simutrek
tms32031
tms32032
But mine failed audit. so run it and write down the message that it gives you.
-
Below is the message i get when i try to run a cps 2 or 3 or neo geo roms. All other games work fine its just those ones that just wont run.
Thx already for checking it out.
-
THX a lot it was indeed the qsound got it and got cybots running gonna check out my other cps2 games right away. but your spot in arcade heaven is saved mate.
-
When you got the time could you check out a neogeo game also so that i know what to look for. cuz they still give the error if i could get those running also i m gonna be happy camper ;D
-
Neo geo works fine for me. You do have the Bios right?
-
Yeah i do have the BIOS its size is 1,3M so i think its the right one.
-
Still no luck with the NEOGEO games below is a picture of the neogeo zip i have, if someone could check if its everything. i really love fighthing games and snk has some pearls on the neogeo that i just cant seem to run.
-
Neo Geo finaly works, damn they have some killer games (have to start building my cab fast!)
