Gngeo2x 0.6.9 *update*


quick question regarding the last build: as a request, can we expect a front-end soon? :)


I hope so. I have been avoiding this emu as I know nothing about linux and scripts and don't want to mess with those. Maybe a third party launcher could be made for this.

I'm struggling with dumpgfx, running suse 10. It's compiled, but doesn't seem able to open any zip's:

./dumpgfx pulstar.zip
Couldn't load pulstar.zip

Does it have any dependencies I may be missing? I know zlib is definately installed. I've tried several zip's, that work fine otherwise, and also tried recompressing, without any luck.

Have you any other rom to try?

What is the content of the roms (unzip -l)

I had tried others, but just tried the mame 103 version and dumpgfx worked.... looks like i just had the wrong version of the rom... sorry for the confusion :)

edit: i had been using the mame0.34 romset

I've been holding off on this one too for the same reason, although i'm dying to try it out. I hope it get some sort of gui treatment soon :)

Guys, it's really not too bad. If you follow the instructions in this thread, you can set up Konuch's Selector to replace making all the scripts. If you'd like to try and need help, just PM me.

Too true, it's really not that hard and much easier than creating hundreds of scripts. I don't mind helping out either.

Since selector does a very good job to launch gngeo, I put a new binary with selector included:
http://m.peponas.free.fr/gngeo/download/gngeo2x.0.6.7b.zip

Thanks to Kounch for this great launcher.

Also, a little clarification on the bios files that gngeo need. Gngeo need exactly the same bios than mame, but unzipped, that's all.
More specifically, the folowing file are needed:
aes-bios.bin, vs-bios.rom, usa_2slt.bin, asia-s3.rom, sp-s2.sp1, sfix.sfx and 000-lo.lo

- aes-bios.bin is only needed if you configure gngeo in home mode (in gngeorc)
- vs-bios.rom is only needed if you configure gngeo "country" in Japan.
- usa_2slt.bin is only for USA...
- asia-s3.rom for Asia...
- sp-s2.sp1 for Europe...

Is there a possibility that a rom selector will be built in eventually? It would be nice to have all in one as it is cleaner on the card and easier to use as there is no "setting up".

It's on my roadbook, but I can't say when it'll be ready.
But give a chance to selector. You just have to unzip the gngeo zip, and "click" on gngeo2x and that's all.
(assuming you have a neogeo bios installed)

Great! Now I can use a single launcher icon for this emu as well :)

Side note: has anyone gotten pulstar to work? The game launches but then I get a warning (cartridge only for use in original snk boards).

I think I'm going to start a game suggestion list on the wiki. Gngeo emulates Super Dodge Ball better than any other emu I've run across.
