I'd own/play the real thing if I could afford it that's why I turn to emulators! Naomi boards/roms/GD-roms are expensive especially the main board not to mention neededing a cabinet/monitor/cp etc.. to actually play the thing that's another expense

It is not as expensive as you think. The motherboards can be had between $60.00 - $75.00. As far as needing a monitor you could run it on your computer monitor. I do on my Deskmame setup. The controller has both a JAMMA harness wired to it and a IPAC. Capcom Vs Snk can be had for like $30.00 if you know where to look. I got lucky on a Marvel Vs Capcom 2 cart and won it offa E-Bay for $100.00. They usually go for like $275.00.

I have a Naomi 2 in my cabinet. I won it on ebay for £200 (Cabinet is a 40" screen Sit-down type) last year. I have been slowly adding MAME to it aswell(+Dreamcast).

DJ Infinity is right some of the carts and GD's arent too badly priced. I have Virtua Fighter 4 in mine atm and I think I only paid £50 for it. Thats around the same price as an Xbox 360 game. I will try and post some photos today. (having problems getting my phone to connect to P.C.)

Well what can I say, I'm happy.

Thanks freq!

Not going to compile a version then? Not sure what it is that you don't like about it, zero problems here.

Just changed the way it wrote rom name to screen cuz was unstable for me. Every once in awhile it randomly wouldn't write the name to the control so now it's working fine and is stable. Also didn't like the way the window showed before load so took take care of that and hid windows cleanly. And last I manipulated the nullDC.cfg to always run fullscreen for both plugins. Still don't get why you weren't able to run before. A 64bit version was compiled for Visitor Q and took care of his problems. Gonna need to run a few tests for users with a 64bit OS. Will compile and release the new one later this morning.

Well if you have a new version you want tested, I can do so when I get home from work later but honeslty, the current version works fine for me.

Thanks! I hope I didn't sound harsh I did check into it and your right some of the boards/roms can be had for a cheap price! So you can actually hook them to a PC monitor? Wow who would have guessed! That's really interesting I'll have to look into to getting a board and Virtua Fighter 4 and Guilty Gear X some day

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate x64 so I can test to if needed. I just have one small problem in GameEx it reports no games found under Naomi which is strange

Hunk 4TH,

How do you have your games stored?

They list for me, I should be able to help you.

Make sure you have the box set correctly where it limits the vewiable files under that emu.

[Hunk_4TH]

I have two Naomi paths in one folder one for Demul and nullDC here's my roms path I have in GameEx

C:\Emulators\Sega Naomi\NullDC\Roms (NullDC)

under rom filter I tried *.list; and tried leaving it blank but still get no games found I'm sure I'm missing something thanks for the help btw!

Hunk 4TH,

There is a dipswitch setting on the NAOMI motherboards (#1) to switch between 15k & 31k. Just make sure it is set at 31k and you'll be good to go

I have my roms zipped and I let Game Ex unzip them before Null loads them, have you tried this?

I can post more info. on my config tomorrow when I fire up that PC.

Oh no I haven't tried that yet. Yea post your config and I'll give it a shot thanks again!

Under rom filter I have this.

*.cdi;*.lst

Not much sense in me posting my command line since I am using a wrapper.
