First: YOu MUST HAVE a Neogeo Bios -Look for NeoGeo.zip (you might find the OLD revision of the NG bios, look for the new one, the MAME compatible bios) 2nd: PROPER ROMSETS -NG roms are all messed up... some have differenc CRCs or naming convention... i suggest downloading the MAME revisions, i'd like to expand this , but its all said here: kazuyauk.proboards16.com/index.cgi?board=emulation&action=display&thread=1067164452

You do need a neogeo bios, and this is most likely your problem. Look for neogeo.zip, but not the new MAME one. You want to files inside of it to be NEO-GEO.rom, and then three files starting with ng- in the filename. Place the zip file in the same directory as the games (\kawaks\roms\) Also, prior to kawaks 1.49 (as I was told on this very forum) kawaks supported older romsets, which come up graphically incorrect in the newer versions.

Place the zip file in the same directory as the games (\kawaks\roms\) SORRY, WRONG... proof, look at the Winkawaks 1.47 what's new file: since 1.47, kwks uses the NEW RENAMED BIOS files, they HAVE the same CRC, and are basically THE SAME files, but they were renamed in accordance to MAME's database... KAWAKS is able to READ CUZ its basically THE SAME FILE, and KAWAKS Doesnt Give a shit about filenames, only the CRC's, Go it? Actually, it DOES... unlike like Nebula or Mame, Kawaks, doesnt give a shit about filenames and even CRC's, so it still loads the roms even though the files and outdated or mis named, for example, it will load the old revison of KOF95, but it will have gfx errors, it does play, but again, gfx errors... And the the reason why the older romsets come out wrong in 1.49, cuz 1.49 uses the mame database, the so called "official" database.. so use the new romsets Note, CHECK YOU WINKAWAKS ROMSET AUDIT... and youll see lots of problems (incorrect fiel names or wrong CRC's) Belive me, ive been in emulation for 4 years now... i know my stuff... ____ but you wont prolly bother cuz you just wanna play the games
