configuration saves fine but im still getting 'no roms found' in the blue box?

any ideas how to fix this?
cheers

Exactly the same problem as me and it's been driving me up the wall for days now.

I've even used the same BIOS that SamiPower posted earlier in this thread on a Megaupload link and I still get the same problem as you.

If this command gives correct output, I see no reason why it should not work.

@Kevstacey:
your exact command should be (in one line):

Code:

/opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo --scandir /home/user/MyDocs/emu-roms/neogeo

The output must show the rom-games in your folder

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui

ive tried:

/opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo --scandir /home/user/MyDocs/emu-roms/neogeo/kof2k4se.zip

and get:
ShortName:LongName:Filename

if i had a list of the exact files i need and where they go, it may help more.

cheers ade :)

@jamesbond@ge: its been a pain in the orofice for me too pal lol especially when i dont usually have problems following guides on here even using xterm! we'll get there in the end pal ha :D

No, no, try without the zip filename, just type what I asked you to.
Try to put serveral zipped roms in this folder, this one might not work.

I think we are very close to the solution now... ;)

My kof2002 rom doesn't load due to bios required missing, I have kof2004 working, the hack version, could you list your bios and share with me or send google, page link (if legal) or even upload, and how many kbs/mbs (exactly size of .zip file) . Or could you point me the 'rom sharing site' (if legal) ? I want to get other roms to work (Still didn't get kof2000 kof 2002 and other to work bios missing problem ) . Woul like to play them on my Videogame (N900)
So, probably you got the version with real fullscreen and not the 1/10 screen size of the OS2008 version, that's good, like mine aswell. As I posted before, if we mark 'enable joystick' we get bugs on keys configuations, better not to mark it, if it is checked we can use the analog joystick of PS3 controller, wich some people prefer, I don't, can't wait to post my youtube video. I have one on

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLXOKyWgVuA

, but it is in small screen.

Yea sure, as I remember I was missing three files from the bios, one of them was "000-lo.lo" and I can't recall the other 2. Downloaded them from a torrent, it was around 38 files. it pretty much incuded everything.
Anyway, I zipped my goody file Here :)

And yea I was still thinking to use PS3 controller but I haven't got the chance to try it since I have Xbox instead. But I can tell "It's gonna be AWESOME!!" :D

kof2k4se.zip doesn't work for me either (Unknow or unsupported romset.)

Start with zipped games like Metal Slug, Last Resort, King of Fighters of Shock Troopers. They work for me.

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui

tried some other games (metalslug,kof) but still not working so uninstalled until it is more straight forward to get working

thanks for the help anyway tho ade :D

I'm afraid it won't get more straight forward then this. It must have something to do with your bios or roms.

Best way is to get it working from the x-terminal first. A pity it did not work for you and hope it will someday in the future.

I had a similar problem (the emulator not recognizing many games) and the problem was that the files in the zip-file were wrongly named. You have to make sure that every file in the zip is named exactly like in /opt/gngeo/share/gngeo/romrc.d/(the zip files name).rc. Also possible readme's and other non related files must be removed from the zip. After that the game should be recognized by the emulator.
