House of the dead 2 won't run

[johnnyskullhead]

Tried several images from different sites 

When I try to play house of the dead 2 it boots the screen says checking info and sticks 

Any suggestions is it vmu ??

Thanks in advance

I just checked mine, and it did mention saved data, but it never stuck. I have the gdi versions and demul. What emulator are you using?

[johnnyskullhead]

same as you mate demul and tried several gdi versions

have you got vmu set up in demul ?

Thanks

 

[SentaiBrad]

The VMU does pop up, but I never set it up specifically. I also have the no-intro or TOSEC pack of Dreamcast games (I don't remember the exact pack).

[DOS76]

Definitely isn't No-Intro since they don't do disc based systems.

[johnnyskullhead]

where do I source that then ?

I am not sure of difference ?

Thanks in advance

 

[SentaiBrad]

Might be Tosec or redump then. Try and find a pack of the games from a reputable pack. Grabbing random single games online from random sites is generally not a good idea since they almost always have no quality control.

Thanks

I think I know what answer gonna be but I am going to ask anyway , any pointers ?

 

 

[SentaiBrad]

As far as I know, nothing special is needed. Just make sure to have the latest demul, grab the dreamcast bios from a MAME .183 non-merged set (you can grab just the single file), and find a good rip of the game which is kind of a crapshoot. Just try from a good set.

[DOS76]

I think he was looking for pointers as to where to get the sets you mentioned Brad. Unfortunately that information can't be shared on the forums (which I'm sure is the answer you were expecting)

[SentaiBrad]

I know

[johnnyskullhead]

fair enuff

 

[johnnyskullhead]

sorry can you please explain why i need bios from mameset ?

thought i had got dreamcast bios

 

[DOS76]

No if you're getting the games to load already it sounds like you have the bios file so you shoudn't need a new one.

[SentaiBrad]

You don't, it's just the easiest way to find a good working set for those that need it, but if it's loading then it isn't the BIOS fault.

[johnnyskullhead]

Thanks got another couple of images to try 

Btw is there to convert from to GDI ?

[johnnyskullhead]

Sorry meant CDi to CGI 

[johnnyskullhead]

Refill won't work

That may be your issue, what are you trying to run dreamcast on?
