When I manage to run these systems in the most common way (directly via Retroarch) I’ll make a guide explaining how, if no one else does before. I also updated the title stating it’s focused for RocketLauncher use. RocketLauncher gives Retroarch instructions on what to run and how to run it, that’s where comes the Boot from CLI.Īlthough Retroarch is crashing in the hash and dummy method (not covered in this tutorial), if you use a frontend that is managed by RocketLauncher, NEO GEO CD and other systems emulated by MAME will run fine. It doesn’t mean this guide is not useful, I use RocketLauncher, Hyperspin as my frontend. I tried to run NEO GEO CD using the hash, dummy and naming the CHD according to the hash file naming, naming the roms folder to neocdz, Retroarch crashes, I’m not sure why it crashes since it works fine via RocketLauncher, so it’s definitely not a MAME driver problem. I’ll have to dig the other way a little and build up a specific tutorial for cases like yours, probably the dummy files and the hash. My current setup works this way, I have Arcade Classics that is almost totally emulated by MAME core, except sega model 2 and 3, I also have some consoles emulated by MAME (former MESS), that are NEO GEO CD, CD-i and in the near future FM Towns Marty.Īll games are running fine and I don’t have to mess with any configs to play all systems, this is what we want after all, a solid setup without our intervention. I believe this method won’t work for direct loading, like “load content” and the go find the chd and load it directly, this method will work fine if you use Rocket Launcher.Īnd for that, I’m now thinking of making tutorials for both ways, i.e., for those who use the frontend and Rocket Launcher, and for those who launch files directly via Retroarch or use a frontend that launches the games directly without a manager like RocketLauncher.Īnswering the second question, you shouldn’t need to change configs to load other games that aren’t consoles, like a normal MAME zip. Run your game, when RA crashes check your log.txt, and upload it here. Retroarch -verbose -menu > log.txt > 2>&1 To get a better log, run this from cmd(command-line), go to your retroarch folder: type this: The “software name” should be the name of your dummy zip( ironclad.zip), and “disk name” is the actual name of the chd file. load the neocd.xml and find there the games you have and create the correct chd file name, and the correct dummy file-im not sure why other methods do not run on my system(windows) but this procedure is the easiest i am able to play neo-cd as long as you are using the updated mame_libretro. You should probably set the config to defaults, i have mine at defaults and it works fine with neogeo cdĪlso make sure that the filenames are the one that is needed or is in mame’s hash, you should have this in mame/hash.
