Hello,

 

I downloaded the newest non merged rom set of mame. Followed the launchbox guide. All my namoi games seem to be working but house of the dead 2 with demul. Getting this error but everything else seems to boot. Any idea how to fix it? 

 

Thank you

The 'missing' file can be found in hotd2.zip and hod2bios.zip.  Make sure Demul has access to hod2bios.zip (as in, make sure that file is in the same folder as hotd2.zip).

They are in the same mame folder. I have demul pointing to the mame folder. All the other games work.

from hod2bios.zip, copy epr-21330.ic27 into naomi.zip and it'll work.  

Not sure why Demul is looking in naomi.zip for that file. But doing the above works. At least in my test when launched directly from Demul. 

Even in 2018 (Demul's latest release), that file was never in there.  Though the compatibility list does indicate it takes a "Cust" (Custom?) BIOS.  Maybe the above 'fix' is what that means.

Of course, this will screw things up when you go to update your MAME ROM set.  The "fix" for the 'fix': Copy the modified naomi.zip into your /Demul/roms/ folder and then add that path to Roms and Bioses Path in Demul itself.
