Hi guys, hope you're well. Can anyone help me, I simply cannot get any Mame or NeoGeo roms to work. I've followed all the instructions included in the recalbox roms folder text file, I'm trying to run 0.78 mame roms which I'm told are the most compatible, I've tried using the NeoGeo roms from the site the recalbox guys suggest. Problem when using 'home' system spotted: be sure to have the bios file 'aes-bios.bin' in your neogeo.zip file (still not working very great) - Added z80 and 68k overlock in preferences (improve neogeo framerate on games like metal slug) - Fix child roms not working (metal slug 4 plus, Puzzle De Pon!
Neo Geo Roms Not Working Retropie
- If you have a Pi 3 and are using lr-fba-next, search Google for 'fba 0.2.97.38 reference set' and that will give you the correct ROMs. If you have a Pi Zero and are using PiFBA, the correct ROMs are harder to come. You could probably convert most from the FightCade ROM set using the DAT file. View entire discussion (1 comments).
- A “Scanning ROMs” box will appear: Depending on the amount of ROMs you have, this could take a few seconds or a minute. If successful, your ROMs would appear like shown below. In my example, I have both the Dungeons & Dragons games. Currently, in the roms folder I have all 24 ROMs for them.

| Summary | 05974: Neo Geo games work from command line but not menu | ||||
| Description | For instance, the following work just fine: ./mame64 mslug ./mame64 kof98 But if I try the following: ./mame64 Then select any Neo Geo game I can think of from the menu, it says it's missing one or more required ROM or CHD images. So it looks like there's some disagreement between directly loading a specific game vs. going through the menu when it comes to finding the Neo Geo BIOS files. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | As above. | ||||
| Additional Information | I'm not sure how up to date my Neo Geo BIOS files are, so I'd better tell you they're these: $ md5 roms/neogeo/* MD5 (roms/neogeo/000-lo.lo) = fc7599f3f871578fe9a0453662d1c966 MD5 (roms/neogeo/asia-s3.rom) = ff453315c5ddacc0f3bf4ca994c13adc MD5 (roms/neogeo/japan-j3.bin) = 5b2d6f653ba4cf36e7fe237e4acb2f50 MD5 (roms/neogeo/sfix.sfix) = aa2b5d0eae4158ffc0d7d63481c7830b MD5 (roms/neogeo/sm1.sm1) = 8c26241f9f5beb3a55c8d6ab638d250e MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-1v1_3db8c.bin) = 629e6beaa277e039eae2f96ff237f8e6 MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-45.sp1) = 0396470c1ed8b1a7d5cce754924246bb MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-e.sp1) = a7b798c9cafb1aba49090bca34e1d4ec MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-j2.sp1) = a51ad226535ff862c1f54120e4298f79 MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-s.sp1) = 908b5a0026b2b10f2a7c01ccd98a1236 MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-s2.sp1) = 2968f59f44bf328639aa79391aeeeab4 MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp-u2.sp1) = b60fb8ea07e8a64772ab717afba3706d MD5 (roms/neogeo/sp1.jipan.1024) = a80fffe27bf8e615171ce728e43d2f6c MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_1_0.rom) = 6293999bbc32e594aa0ae1da2113dc4d MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_1_1.rom) = cafa6c274b271c769b8246c8f87473a1 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_1_2.rom) = 206fb0d9b5d01a0375d2d3ecab2401b1 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_1_2o.rom) = 6b2f2d8507be4d1feb14fdfbab0bf22e MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_1_3.rom) = 856d122ee5fc473d7d1dd99dbf42c25b MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_2_0.rom) = 1b9724d1b9d41a1a9b733007b2033fb5 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_2_1.rom) = 0377c32f69a28f23d9281c448aafb391 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_2_2.rom) = 5b9079a81d84137d8b6f221659d777c5 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_2_3.rom) = 74c4bb6a945f7284350036b40f0a0d9d MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_2_3o.rom) = d9f0ed2e0eeab813c9692d7e8d037fd8 MD5 (roms/neogeo/uni-bios_3_0.rom) = 727b731c1f4bd643094574ebaa3814b4 MD5 (roms/neogeo/vs-bios.rom) = 530fb9761957e59aeb47f2e8782df288 Sorry I'm not using the latest version of MAME, I never did have much luck compiling other people's programs! First I thought it might be to do with how I don't zip my ROM files, so I made a roms/neogeo.zip with the relevant files, but it still didn't work, so I don't think that's part of the issue. This is the only version of MAME I have to test with, but I'm happy to try out anything to see what works and what doesn't. | ||||

Tafoid Jul 3, 2015, 22:58 | Current baseline MAME works fine. I'm going to guess it is because your neogeo.zip isn't updated.. every once in a while a new bios version or universal bios added What happens if you just try to run 'mame neogeo' from command line? Do you get any incorrect crc matches or anything else showing? EDIT: I checked back and the neogeo..zip changed between 0.152 and 0.153 which pretty much confirms you are missing a rom or a rom is crc mismatched. https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/5e8aae636acd3abfb950c2ad27c04a8bcfea5cd5 |

No.11822 Tester | Huh, I've never tried that before... ./mame64 neogeo I get a calibration grid, by the looks of things, so that seems to work just fine. No errors. Regarding the linked patch, I didn't have neodebug.rom. I've now got it: $ openssl sha1 roms/neogeo/neodebug.rom SHA1(roms/neogeo/neodebug.rom)= 081c49aa8cc7dad5939833dc1b18338321ea0a07 I just tried selecting mslug from the menu and it still doesn't work. |
No.11823 Tester edited on: Jul 4, 2015, 13:34 | Latest official x64 version works fine on 7 x64. Maybe it's problem with only MacOS version? |
ZoeB Jul 4, 2015, 15:49 | I managed to get MAME v0.163 64-bit from http://sdlmame.lngn.net and it has the same problem as before. It might be OS X specific, but it's even in the latest version. |
NekoEd Jul 7, 2015, 01:56 | Confirmed on SDLMAME64 0.163 running on Linux/x64. It looks like it may be SDL-specific. |
Tourniquet Mar 5, 2016, 21:29 | FYI, this is kind of by design. When I added the 'bios' functionality, I made it possible to load a game so long as you had the minimum roms to launch it in a given configuration (i.e. the bios you specified was available + the game roms). This was to address a concern from Nicola that users might feel they had to track down all roms even if their hardware didn't have said revision. However, when the internal menu was added by Aaron, it didn't take this into account, and only showed games as available if all roms were present. It never bothered me enough to change, and I consider that it's a cool secret feature that you can launch incomplete sets from the command-line... |
B2K24 Jul 3, 2016, 00:31 | If this differential in functionality is known and intended behavior, then an issue doesn't exist to keep this status in Confirmed state. |
Neo Geo Information
Neo Geo – a system of arcade machines, released by SNK (Shin Nihon Kikaku) in October 1990 in Japan. But also the system has the full name of Neo Geo Multi Video System (abbreviated as Neo Geo MVS). Neo Geo means new world. Shortly after the release of MVS, SNK decided to conquest the market of home video games. Console called Neo Geo Advanced Entertainment System (Neo Geo AES) was released and it was completely identical to the arcade machine. The resemblance was in software and hardware configuration, however, had a different slot for cartridges. Obviously, SNK didn’t want that AES would be used as a gaming machine. Smart move, but still there were some enthusiasts who have created an adapter – Phantom MVS converter thingy. By the way, the price for home system was $500 which at that time considered a big amount of money. However, up to 4 people at once could play on it!

Neo Geo games offers the user a fairly high-quality 2D graphics and high quality sound. The game system was based on a 16-bit Motorola 68000 processor and an 8-bit Z80, which was used as an audio compressor. To create the sound effect optionally could be used 15-channel sound chip Yamaha YM2610. Neo Geo roms games can be played right on your home computer or smartphone/tablet running Android or iOS. All of the necessary software can be downloaded for free on this section of site.
