prototype games and littles changes (games.xml)

[Spindizzi]

re,
hum, I made some tests and I can get your error
try this
you must have one and only one ffb rom in your rom set (ie : make 2 differents rom set)
if the two ffb roms are Inside, like I said previously (my bad ), i've got same error, strange.
and of course, you must have one ffb rom activated in your games.xml (warning with comment in/out syntax : <!-- and --> )

I don't know about stcc rom missing, in 207 mame rom set and even older revision, the file is present (but nammed epr-18261.ic9)

[doteater]

for the sake of clarity :
i never included both files because i couldn't find the touring one ; i got those weird errors when i only included the one from scud

i can now confirm that everything is fine if you only add that particular file from touring
(the reason why i couldn't find it at first was because the rom for the model 2 emu is different to the mame one..duh)

kinda funny how,after all this,lemans is still completely unplayable anyway unless you're using a steering wheel ? (i must assume)
even after calibrating stuff in test mode , the car is like a bar of soap if you're on keyboard

re,
depending the car, but porsche is a real soap car

I sent you a pm, in case

It plays just fine with a wheel, but it does handle noticeably differently to stuff like Daytona and Outrun 2.

Sorry bart hurried.

Old thread but I thought I should resurrect it as the answers weren't clear for many people both in this forum and lurkers.

To get DIRT DEVIL working, please find the missing epr-19338a.bin in your Scud Race game rom, "scud.zip". All you need to do is open the scud.zip using your compression program and drag & drop the epr-19338a.bin file into your DIRT DEVIL rom, "dirtdvls.zip".

To get Le Man 24 rom working, this is a little trickier but still easy. Open your Sega Touring Car Championship file (yes, your model 2 game), "stccb.zip". Inside that file, you'll find, "epr-18261.ic9". What you need to do is extract that file onto your desktop, rename the file extension from "epr-18261.ic9" to "epr-18261.bin", then drop the newly renamed file into your LeMan 24 rom, "lemans24.zip".

Done! Both games will now work. Enjoy.

Hi,
I've added epr-18261.ic9" and epr-19338a.bin to my lemans24 romset but still don't have any FBB

Am I missing something ? (Maybe games.xml should be updated accordingly but I don't know what to do with it...)

Thanks

"epr-18261.ic9" needs to be renamed to "epr-18261.bin".

In Games.xml, comment out line 1097 (SVN Revision 857). Change this:

Code: Select all

 <file offset="0" name="epr-18261.bin" crc32="0x0C7FAC58" />

..to this:

Code: Select all

 <!-- <file offset="0" name="epr-18261.bin" crc32="0x0C7FAC58" /> -->

And then uncomment line 1103. Which is basically deleting lines 1102 and 1104. So this:

Code: Select all

<!--
        <file offset="0" name="epr-19338a.bin" crc32="0xC9FAC464" />
-->

..becomes this:

Code: Select all

 
        <file offset="0" name="epr-19338a.bin" crc32="0xC9FAC464" />
