Naomi Atomiswave X86-64 Reicast Batocera 5.19 Stable

joshsmithtogo

So I have every other emulator running games just fine and launching. For days I have been trying to get the Reicast Naomi games to launch. I copied over some bin and lst files that are know to work and verified my bios was correct and placed in the system folder in the dc subfolder, but when I launch a title, all goes black and then I get returned back to EmulationStation. It does this with every game I try. I think there may be a problem with the x86_64 Reicast? Any ideas?

What folder are you putting Naomi's roms in?

Important step.

NAOMI M4 cartridges require a special BIOS file to be put inside your System directory. The M4 bios should be in a “naomi.zip” file in the BIOS folder (/dc ). The file in specific which hsould be inside that zip file is called ‘epr-21576h.ic27’.

jdorigao At the moment I put the roms naomi and atomiswave in the naomi folder. Yes I already read this page but I'm not completely understood at the moment :-)

The part that the staff most has problem is with the bios the correct is to rename the file epr-21576h.ic27 which is inside a zip file to naomi_boot.bin and put in the bios folder need not be in the folder (/dc)

jdorigao But what kind of games do you have to do this manipulation?

Thank you for the replies. I tried several different approaches. I have the "roms" in the naomi folder. I am using .lst and .bin files and made sure I had all the correct bios files in the proper folders too. Switched over to my Windows 10 Retroarch machine and same files and same bios ran games just fine. Appears to be an issue with Batocera.

Just on this days i'm testing Naomi on 5.21 RC0. I've extract all compatible roms from mame2010 (0.139) folder collection that i have and so far at least 10 games works, the others don't, probably because the romsets are outdated or missing.

Specs: Toshiba Notebook with i3-2330m /Intel HD3000 GPU/3GB DDR3/running from 160 GB internal HDD.

Remember that for Naomi emulation you need at least a card with OpenGL 3.1 (or higher) support (assuming the same requirements as reicast).

What bios files are people using and where are they placing them? Im running it on a i7 PC with 32gb ram and a GTX 1050ti card so it should be powerful enough lol

Minux87

cliffyb73 the bios "naomi_boot" is to put in the Bios directory

I watched this video. I watched other videos. I have downloaded Wild Riders game for Naomi and Atomiswave.

I have wldrider.bin and wldrider.lst files in it.

I opened the wldrider.lst file:
Wild Riders

"wldrider.bin", 0x0000000, 0x0a800000

This information is available. I put the right file into the bios, but the game does not work
