SNK Neo Geo AES

This system has had me hung up for a while and I was wondering if someone could help me. I tried several emulators and finally settled on WinKawaks because it is easy to configure controllers.

 

The problem is with configuring controllers haha. It wants me to configure each game separately, and only after each game is loaded can I configure.

 

Simple enough controller that I want to map to my xbox one controllers. Any ideas?

What mame command do you use? For mame neogeo I seem to be stuck in some sort of system test mode.

 

What I mean is, use MAME as your emulator... to run the NeoGeo roms.

 

Are you running MAME at all?  Already?  If MAME is aleady setup and running for you, it's just a matter of getting double-duty out of MAME and having it * also * run your Neo Geo games in a separate Theme.

 

When you are in HyperHQ and set up SNK Neo Geo AES as a "New" system, just point it at the MAME exe for your executable/emulator...  literally, no one would be the wiser that MAME is running the games and not some other emulator...  do you follow?

Well, I was trying for the home neogeo system, but I cannot get the cards to run. Of course I could run the arcade version in stead, but I don't like giving up that easily.

Do the games for the "Card" version roms look or play any different than the regular roms?  Sorry, I'm not 100% familiar with the diff versions.  I would say that if the games are identical in every aspect, then just use the Neo Geo AES HS Theme as a disguise to what really runs the game roms... MAME.

 

No?

Games are same, but in AES mode you don't insert credits and many games let you choose difficulty in game (arcade version had difficulty set by dipswitches). So the purist would be able to tell difference.

Mess could always do AES version well. My mess is still compiled separate from mame, but now both mess and mame same binary there must be a way to activate true AES mode in the combined mame too. Sadly I haven't tried it yet so cannot say how exactly, though you'll definitely need the AES bios, so if u haven't got that, that's ur issue

Sorry mate, was on my phone and everyone was talking about difference between AES and MVS so assumed that was topic.

I see now you want an easy way to configure controllers in winkawaks. I've never used that so cannot help. Apologies for contributing to your thread going off topic; I'll read entire threads in future. Hope someone can help you

No problem, this is just getting off topic in a hurry.

Retroarch user friendly compared to MAME? That's the first time I've ever heard anyone say that.

I get you don't want to use MAME, but it runs NEO GEO MVS and AES damn near perfectly.

I had some trouble with WinKawaks a few months ago when I was trying to set it up and pushed it to the side.

I also hate MAME, and have recently fallen in love with RetroArch.

Now I've setup RetroArch with the Neo Geo games, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to change it from MVS to AES mode... :(

I would agree with this a couple months ago before the RetroArch 1.2.2 overhaul.

I do not believe it is a mode, they are separate games.

 

 

Maybe you can find out something different. Interested to know.

Physically, yes they are different cartridges.

On the actual data side though, it's just a mode you can switch. You can do this easily in WinKawaks, and other emulators. If nothing else, I was able to switch my copy of Snk vs Capcom over to the console version in WinKawaks.

YES! Thank you Simply Austin. You're Simply the best! Now I can play Snk vs Capcom till my fingers bleed. =D

 

change the bios file and you get a dif version ;)  Only 1-2 games are actually dif from actual arcades to home version.  One of which being completely dif however both can use the same setups

Like the others said, it's just a mode changed my the bios. I have an actual MVS arcade machine and a little over 120 games, but since I have Raz's Unibios I can play any of them in either AES or MVS mode as imply as changing the menu option.
