neo geo emulator?

[beatfreakinbadger]

hey peeps,

could anyone recommend a neogeo emulator I could use with hyperspin please? I have both kawaks and nerorage and neither seem to be recognised, unless of course im doing something wrong?
I'd had a couple of games running on easy mame a few years ago, but to be honest my mame knowledge is limited and from what I've been reading today, playing neo geo games is not that straightforward as the neo geo bios and romsets have just been updated and nobody seems to have the correct combination of files lol

I Just want something to work...... :banghead:

If anybody has kawaks or neorage (especially) working already would be even better ;)

not to worry too much......... after trying 5 previous versions of mame, I've found one that lists all but 4 games. that'll do me as their not English ones anyway.

I use the latest mame think its version .128

yeah, that's what I tried in the first place, but it didn't recognise ANY of the roms, so I had to keep trying previous versions..... I'm now using 127, mame is a great piece of kit, but to get things the way you like them is a lot of faffing around, like for instance, I want to use scan lines on my display, I've downloaded and pointed easy mame in the right direction...... still no scan lines lol! it's frustrating, but I know it will be worth it in the end :proud:

I'm running mame .128 and my neo geo rom set works like a charm, no problems whatsoever.. got it 4 weeks ago or so.

All themes in HS had games working straight away when I got the roms, and set up mame to run them.

Maybe you can find a torrent for a different neo geo romset which work better than the ones you have?

think I'll have to agree with you on that one.... the set I have is "Neo-Geo Arcade Perfect Set (20080101) by Logiqx" it does work quite well with mame127, like I said , only a couple of games don't work. The main thing for me now is getting it to look ok, like scanlines and for some reason my screen has an annoying slow flicker to it? thing is I don't know whether its just the way the games are emulated in mame or whether there's something I can do to make it better, This why I was hopping someone had got either neorage or kawaks up and running, so I didn't have to go through all of this lol!
