NeoGeo Emulation Help Needed Plz

[EdgeBlade]

Is there a NeoGeo emulator that should work on XP? I think NeoRage is suppost to, but it crashes on launch for me, any ideas?

there's a hacked version of neoragex that works on xp, but i'm not sure where to get it. Just look around

or just use MAME32 or winkawaks

[EdgeBlade]

Would you consider MAME better that NeoRAGE?

[EdgeBlade]

I found it @ http://www.zophar.net/neo-geo.html

I prefer Winkawaks and MAME, since they can both do fullscreen anyway, and it's just easier to work with, the emulation from MAME is more accurate and does the more modern NeoGeo games like KOF2000 and metal slug 3

[EdgeBlade]

Is there a good place to go to learn about NeoGeo ROM naming conventions and such, similar to Smiff's site for N64?

If you want to convert roms, use clrmame.
Now, about emu`s, I would go with Nebula, if it works on XP, or Kawaks, they are both good, and have neat blitters. I prefer them both over MAME, because they removed the whole shadow flickering bug in NG emulation.

Alright, I'll do a search and find 'em both to check them out later, once I'm done with school for the day. Untill than, any links?

The shadow flickering is not a bug. That's what the actual hardware did. Since the NeoGeo could not do transparencies, they flickered a shadow since on an interlaced display it would look almost like an alpha blended shadow. MAME is the most accurate NeoGeo emulator.
