  1. Hello.

    Having some a little trouble getting my Japanese Sega CD games to run using retroarch.

    The US games boot just fine using retroarch with the Pico and GX cores.  I assume that it has to do with using a Japanese bios. How do I associate a bios for just the Japanese games? Should I just add them as a different console separate from the US Sega CD? And do I need to use a different core for the Japanese games? is there a universal bios for all region Sega CD games?

     

    Thanks! 

  2. Hello!

    I am trying to get Atomiswave running in Launchbox and I am having a problem.

    I've changed the retroarch core to use the flycast core in associated platforms with no luck. When I run the ROM in retroarch itself it works fine. I'm sure its a super easy fix, but I can't figure it out.

     

    Thanks.

  3. Thanks for the tips sir.

    One more thing related to emulating these games. I am having trouble getting music for the CD rom games to play 

    Akumajou Dracula X for example

    hmm.thumb.png.c57ad1554ec4bee34a6c650e7e5d2a69.pngAm I missing something? do I need to rename some files?

  4. Hello,

    Do I need to have my zipped CD rom games unzipped in order to play they using RetroArch? Its going to get messy in my roms folder with all of them unzipped. Any ideas on organizing them? Also, where should the bios file be? I currently have it in the system folder for RetroArch.

     

    Thanks

  5. Good Day!

    So, I've obtained a Merged 0.188 MAME set (ROMS & CHDs)  and I need to split em. I've noticed some games for example "Commando" combining other games named commando together :(. Is clrmamepro the best way to work this out? Do I need to also split the CHD files? Right now I have ROMS and CHD files in separate folders. Should I just combine them and split em together with clrmamepro? Also, If I delete all the games from my LB and re-import the split set will the media I've already downloaded still assign correctly?

     

    Thanks, 

  6. Oh! Its a mess alright lol. Thanks for the advice. I do remember reading a post somewhere that said that you could use CLRmamepro. just not sure how to use it for that function.

  7. Good Evening.

    Would anyone have some advice or tips on separating a large set of Arcade ROMS/CHDs by systems? I have Sega model 1,2&3 mixed in with other arcade ROMS that I would like to import into LauncBox.

    Thanks!

    If you're using a Merged Arcade set, that's why it's not assigning the proper region. Merged doesn't work well at all when importing in to LB. You'll need split or non-merged only (non-merged for .182 since split for .182 seems broken, but split for .174-.181 works).

    Hello SentaiBrad.

    I ran CLRmamepro's un-merge feature to split my Merged .177 set as suggested. I imported my games prioritizing North American ROMS, waited 12Hrs for all the artwork and metadata to update. I'm now missing particular roms (Double Dragon for example) in launchBox but have the SNK fighting game "Double Dragon". I checked the set for the North American rom ddragonu.7z and its in the set but did not import. Did I need to import Bootlegs as well? any suggestions? When I imported my merged set previously it did import double dragon, only that it was the Japanese ver. of the rom and the art work was incorrect, this was easily fixed though. 

    Thanks!

  9. Figured it out :D

    Apparently I did not have the English bootleg. pointed Launchbox in the right direction and I got it working. Should I have imported it into Launchbox instead of just changing the ROM path though?

  10. Hello everyone!

    LaunchBox is using the Japanese ROM for some of my games, for example Wonder Boy in Monster Land. I know I have all variants of the rom but not sure how to default Launchbox to use the english one. My sets are Merged. Is there a way to get Launchbox to use specific roms or even bootlegs that I want it to use?

    Please help.

    Thanks!
