[Neo Geo CD]

I got both neogeo.zip and neocdz.zip (both include 000-lo.lo file) and yet the black screen keeps on telling me 000-lo.lo NOT FOUND (tried ni neocdz neocdz). What else can I try? I'm running the 0.204version of mess

[Neo Geo CD]

thanks i'm going to try that.I thought neogeo.zip was just for the cartridge version.Oh what a Mess

[Neo Geo CD]

And which version of mess do you recommend?

[Neo Geo CD]

I don'thave a neogeo.zip, but a neocd.zip and a neocdz.zip

does it matter?

[Neo Geo CD]

I just tried again without anything else than the 2 zip files, and again tried to launch mess through launchbox.

result is that 000-lo.lo NOT FOUND

fatal error....

I'm wondering where Mess is looking for this file

[Neo Geo CD]

the thing I don't get is where should these files be. because the 000.lo.lo file is in the folder with the neocd bios (picture above)

[Neo Geo CD]

How do I know these are good bios? Is there a way to check them individually so It cannot be something else?

I tried to launch directly from mess but the inyerface isn t clear, I got this:

 

[Neo Geo CD]

hmm I thought I needed to write the path to the roms, which are at the root of the hdd. so I changed back to roms, downloaded and put the 2 zip files in the folder and yet it doesn't work...Did i forget anything else?

 

[Neo Geo CD]

Does it come from the Bios? I explain. I think I got the bios through google in a list for mess ( MESS-0.151.BIOS ). But the actual mess is I believe 0.204. And I cannot find the bios for this version. What do you think?

[Neo Geo CD]

When I launched through LB, a black screen window shows for a tenth of a sec "neocd.bin NOT FOUND (tried in neocdz neocdz)

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　”000-lo.lo  NOT FOUND (tried in neocdz neocdz)　　　

 

[Neo Geo CD]

This time I really thought It was ok. I could use the command prompt to create a ini file, copied pasted the location of my rom in rompath and I believe my roms are ok. But the games doesn t launch

 

[Neo Geo CD]

I know It should be a mess.ini , but as a matter of fact it just isn't.I'm going to erase and try reinstall but is there another easy way to create the .ini file? I posted the cmd prompt picture to show you the message I got. I: works to get inside the hdd but any other thing I write isn't correct ...

[Neo Geo CD]

In the mess folder I have a mess_g ini file, a messui ini file and a ui ini file , but none mention the rompath. Here are screenshots of the mess and mame folder.

 

[Neo Geo CD]

I put manually the bios file into the mess rom folder, but It wasn't recognized...see the picture.

I also tried the cmd window but again, I can 't make it to the mess folder. This is driving me crazy, all the other emulators are ok, but the neocd one, the one I need the most! please help me out

[Neo Geo CD]

I’ll try again and paste the screen capture if it doesn’t work it maybe easier   To be understood than through words. Personally Mess Mame, whatever allows me to play on NEOCD with LaunchBox will make me happy...thanks both of you

[Neo Geo CD]

Thank you for the Mamefornoobs link, I get most of it because I could already install ps1,go,genesis etc. on LaunchBox. My concern is I cannot navigate through mess with the command prompt and as I wrote above command prompts keeps on telling my syntax is incorrect . Can you explain me how to navigate through the mess folder with this prompt command? I’m sure it’s a simple thing and sorry for being dumb but I appreciate your help.

[Neo Geo CD]

The files are in the folder as you mentioned in the Tuto but I cannot manage to create the necessary Ini file. There s a ini folder in the mess folder but no .ini file. I tried to launch both mess and messui but it didn’t create any ini file...

[Neo Geo CD]

Hi

 

Thanks again. I found the 2 zip files you are talking about but i don t know how to get to my folder through the command prompt, i could display the directories but anything else i tried I get the error of syntax message. My I: hdd contains a LaunchBox folder at the root, in which there is a Emulator folder, and inside the Mess folder. what should I type??" . thanks again for your help lordmonkus

[Neo Geo CD]

I am sorry about that. Here is the original one, can you see it now?

[Neo Geo CD]

error message popping for a tenth of a second

here is what i get

[Neo Geo CD]

Hi, I've spent the evening configuring the launchbox and struggling with bios, bins and cues...The thing is, I only want to play with my neogeo cd games but neither mame nor mess, nor raine work for me tonight. I tried half a dozen tutos but I just can't make it work. Can anybody help me here with up to date infos? i could play the neogeo of course but I miss the amazing soundtrack that only can be found on the cd version.

thanks
