About This File
Note before downloading:
This is for MAME only and is not compatible with RetroArch.
This custom version of the Neo Geo CD Software System artwork file, neocdz.zip contains a multi-view lay file configured to work with the "bezelprojectSA-NG-CD" bezels pack. Any game associated with the pack can be set to display it's own bezel at launch. Games for which there are no Bezel Project bezels and therefore use Default Command-Line Parameters will open with the generic SNK-Neo-Geo-CD.png bezel.
The bezel images are not included, so you will need to download the pack and drop the bezels into the artwork neocdz.zip yourself.
You will also need to set LaunchBox Custom Command-line Parameters to allow MAME to choose the correct bezel for each game. This is explained in the download.
With MAME, your Neo Geo CD game names and their bezel image names do not have to match.
Once downloaded, unzip the file MAME_NeoGeoCD_SA.zip and read the enclosed text files.
Meow!
What's New in Version 1.0.1 See changelog
Released
UPDATE NOTES:
1. The lay file has had it's view names updated so that the LaunchBox %romfile% variable can be used to simplify things when proper software list emulation is used, so there's no need for per-game custom parameters.
Direct media emulation will still need LaunchBox Custom Command-line Parameters to allow MAME to choose the correct bezel for each game.
This is explained in the download.
2. The lay file has been edited to fix the "deprecated bezel element" warnings introduced in MAME 0.225.
