To open a command line, click start, select 'run.', type 'cmd', and press enter. Copy mslug.zip and NeoDsConvert.exe into C: oms. In this case, only this rom will be converted.įor example, pretend you want to convert Metal Slug 1, using the japan-s2 bios. If there is another parameter, it will be interpreted as the name of the game, as given to MAME. In this case, it takes up to 2 parameters. You can run NeoDSConvert from the command line. The more info you can give me, the better. * Screen Off - The lower screen can be turned off. This can actually make some games run faster! It is easier for NeoDS to emulate a slower cpu, and some NeoGeo games don't use the full cpu power anyway.

* CPU Clock- The NeoGeo cpu can be underclocked. Scaled shows the full screen, but scaled down to fit. The NeoDS gui is controlled with the stylus. Some games will freeze with audio disabled, so be warned! Once a game is loaded without audio, the only way to get audio back is to reload the game. You can load a rom without audio which will improve frame rate, but you won't get any sound (obviously). The rom should load, and you should be playing. Use the arrow keys to select, and press start to choose. The main menu should load, showing you a list of all the roms on your card. The converted roms will have the *.neo extension.Ĭopy the DLDI patched NeoDS.nds, and all the *.neo roms into the root of your flashcard. Run NeoDSConvert, and it will convert all the NeoGeo roms in that folder. Copy NeoDSConvert.exe into the same folder. Put all the roms you want to convert along with the bios together in a folder. NeoDS uses the same rom sets as MAME, so make sure your games work in MAME before proceeding. Next you will need to convert some NeoGeo roms (mslug.zip for example). Please don't email me for help about this, there are plenty of places online that explain how this works.

It may be possible to emulate raster effects using the DS 2D hardware, but there are lots of reasons why this would be difficult.įirst, you need to patch NeoDS.nds for your DLDI flash card (NOTE - not all flashcards require patching). Emulating raster effects using this method would require more polygons per frame than the DS is capable of (as far as I can tell). Most of the graphics in NeoDS are drawn with textured quads. It will be hard to squeeze it into NeoDS, as both the ARM7 and ARM9 are pretty busy. * All forms of NeoGeo protection/encryptionįM audio has already been done in jEnesisDS, so it is possible in theory. It can run all types of NeoGeo roms with some limitations. This is a NeoGeo AES/MVS emulator for the Nintendo DS.
