anyone know how?

i used the same method as kof2k2 using the kof2k1nd

by renaming these:
svc-m1.rom
svc-v1.rom
svc-v2.rom
svc-v3.rom
svc-v4.rom
svc_c1.rom
svc_c2.rom
svc_c3.rom
svc_c4.rom
svc_c5.rom
svc_c6.rom
svc_c7.rom
svc_c8.rom
svc_p1.rom
svc_s1.rom

to these:
262-m1d.bin
262-p1.bin
262-p2.bin
262-v1.bin
262-v2.bin
262-v3.bin
262-v4.bin
kf2k1_c1.rom
kf2k1_c2.rom
kf2k1_c3.rom
kf2k1_c4.rom
kf2k1_c5.rom
kf2k1_c6.rom
kf2k1_c7.rom
kf2k1_c8.rom
kf2k1_s1.rom

and make the m1d 256 by doing:
copy /b 262-m1d.bin+262-m1d.bin 262-m1df.bin
then deleting the 128k and renaming 262-m1df.bin to 262-m1d.bin

after all that, kawa-x loads everything, but it just displays a black screen :(

apparently invité suggests s1945pn but that doesn't work either.

same as with kof2k1nd, black screen.

but with either kof2k1nd or s1945pn, when i use the service button, "S.V.C CHAOS" is listed under the soft dip.

hrrmm, krizz i came across a hacked kawax called hackawax. i cant seem to get it runnin but it plays MS4 and kof2k2 without the renaming crap. wonder if it would allow us to get any closer to runnin svc on the box. i can email it to ya or something if you wanna check it out. it came from this site, but it took me forever to find the dl link hxxp://www.vgst.com/index_en.htm

What on earth is 'svc rom' ? Can you give it a full name?

jago, the site is crazy to get around in. i followed many links there and finally found the dl link. send me your email and i'll send the program if you like.
BTW, SVC is SNK vs. Capcom.

Hi, this is my first post. Someone sent me the link to this forum because of the topic of discussion.

I have gotten SVC to run on kawa-X the intro, demo matches, everything is in tact. BUt there is a problem.

First i should let you know how i did it.

1. The original P1 rom is 6mb in size and there is no game in the neogeo library that has a similar p file structure so if you simply re-name the rom.......youll get either a test mode or Black screen.

I split the p rom into 2 roms........a 1mb p1 and a 5mb p2 rom. (an application called "X-Cut")

2. I doubled the size of the m1 rom. (in command prompt using a copy command)

3. I renamed all the rom files to match kof98 and zipped it all up as kof98.zip.

note Strikers1945p also works the same.


The game runs as i said and plays fine only in PRACTICE MODE. now if you all have tried this rom in emulators you also know that in practice mode you are limited to the original characters and can only fight against RYU. Same goes for it running in Kawa_X (rom issue, not emulator).

The problem occurs when you start a match. The game will freeze as the characters begin their dialogue sequence *(the text boxes that show up when they talk trash to eachother before a match).

i have not been able to figure out why this happens. My only conclusion is that the P2 rom (5mb) is too large for the kof98 driver or any driver for that matter.

Ive been in several forums sharing this information in hopes that someone might be able to help me complete what i have started.

***now for the hackawaks emulator............

I downloaded it today and took a look at it. Its nothing more than an edited default.xbe that will allow you to keep the name of the game rom and display the name of the actual game you are running on the menu.

I have done this several months ago when kawa-x was initialy released for Kof2k2, Mslug4 AND Power Instinct: Matrimelee.........

I was hoping it was a REAL-hacked version cause that would mean they had the source. They do however provide some nice patches that make the re-naming a lot easier for you. It isnt anything new however.

I have also not been able to get ROTD to run so if any of you do have a working ROTD for kawa-x please share this with me.


We all want the same thing here: To play SVC on our xbox. So anyone that can do anything or know someone that might be able to help. Please let me know. I am more than willing to help in any way i can.

yes ROTD on xbox would be awesome.
and thanks very much for the reply NeoGhost :)

perhaps we'll just have to wait until MAMEoX has virtual memory support, then take the source and add test drivers...

EDIT:
i used coby /b to make m1 and s1 256k
then used x-cut to split the evil p1 into three 2mb files and copied the 3rd to a 4th file. then renamed all files to match garoun (motw). it loads, but i get a bunch of test screens i've only seen on a bad download of doubledr...

well apparently a few rom updates have been released that fix missing instruments. i double any of the new files will fix our problem, but we'll see...
you can check the _www.phuck-ign.com/forums about the updates
