rastan Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I didn't hit the usual sources yet (Google + Youtube) figured I'd hit the forums first.... So I'm having trouble launching .bin files can't mount the .bin files with daemon tools lite and the magic pcfx emulator..... and apparently RetroArch doesn't support NEC PCFX in .bin format. gonna try another Emulator (Mednafen) and see how that goes... but if anyone has any suggestions? feel free! In the meanwhile I'll just finish setting up the system end of it with all the videos/artwork.. got about 30gigs of NEC PC FX stuff so definitely trying to get it going.. 30gigs is too much space just to waste on a system I can't get going.
rastan Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 checking out some of the videos for the games... i can't see myself keeping all the games... gonna sort out the best ones or the ones I like and delete the rest. Only really like this system because it was released in Japan only and is pretty obscure as far as consoles go.
rastan Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 I think that's it.. I don't have any .cue files just the .bin files... I'll just have to create some cue files I guess.
Styphelus Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Don't use Retroarch for PCFX. The games start up and seem fine but soon, as you start getting deeper into the game, you will eventually get a black screen. Doesn't happen to all games but it happens to a lot of them. I've been told to use Madefen instead but haven't set it up yet.
rastan Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 gonna have to play with it... just tried another source for some games and they had the games in .bin also (no cue) but I already found the .cue files for set 1 & set 2. just gonna figure out why I can't seem to get it going. RetroArch still tells me the games have to be in .CUE or .CDD, MagicFX gives a virtual drive was sent extension .BIN which is not a supported file type by Daemon Tools Lite. In the meanwhile I'll just weed thru this 30gigs of NEC PC FX stuff and delete the crap I don't want.. hopefully I'll find a solution soon.
rastan Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 strange thing is the games don't even show up in MagicFX so I can't even test them outside of RL
rastan Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 strange thing is the games don't even show up in MagicFX so I can't even test them outside of RL ok, didn't realize the emulator only works with actual CDs...this puts me on the right path for now.....
ninja2bceen Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Also. there are only like 4 games that you can play without knowing Japanese. Most of the games are dating RPGs Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Advance the cause to 100%. http://hyperbase.hyperspin-fe.com/ Planet Geekdom, Subscribe for Tutorials! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdcby-s2GwriaOHGmVC2vGA?sub_confirmation=1&app=desktop
