Mame runs fine for me. Audio is a little out of sync from the compression.

3982

There was a ā€œtrainerā€ for zinc that allowed you to do cheats, like unlock all characters.

thx so much shinJi for the help . it worked

3984

BAMP. Any hit confirms in these games?

Edit: let me clarify: is it like more modern games where you can chain/link from a light attack into full combo or is it more old school?

3985

yup, you can easily hit confirm from light attacks in the EX series.

3986

guys! help googled but no help.
I cant get to menu selection screen in street fighter ex 2 plus. When i insert coin it directly gets me to character selection screen. The main menu screen where we can select versus mode, practice etc etc. I had played this game when i was kid but now i wanna enjoy it too. i have searched google there is main menu screen but i cant access it in my game :frowning:
Any help?

3987

The SFEX games donā€™t have magic combos or easy chaining like in marvel. Generally its 2-3 frame links from a heavier attack to a lighter attack. However you can cancel into a fast special or super move if you were to land a light attack. Iā€™ve been known to occasionally just walk back and forth and whiff crouching short, if it hits then to immediately perform a super. EX3 would give you a bit more room to explore because you could tag cancel the light attack and follow it up with almost anything.

That main menu is on the PSX port, it sounds like youā€™re playing the arcade version.

3988

You can do multi light attack hit confirms, or you can do single attack hit confirms. Pretty much all characters super cancel really late off of their normals. for example ken s.rh, late cancel into super, sagat s.forward, late cancel into super, etc.

@Shinjigohan
Can u bemore clear please.
Did you mean playstation version?
i am currently playing it in mame.
And i cant unlock kairi and others.
Cant we unlock them in arcade version?i have already completed the whole game with 20 characters.

3990

Mame emulates the arcade version not the playsation version so the unlock method is different usually by time lock.

3991

-.-ā€™ā€™ guys you are losing me.
Can you explain me in plain english or go with details.
I dont need main menu screen. I just thought by getting main menu screen i could unlock characters.
I just need to unlock kairi and garuda.
Plz explain me how to unlock characters in details/ or unlock game

3992

They are unlocked IN TIME, by playing the game. The most time you spend playing the game, the faster they gonna be unlocked.

3993

I have already completed the whole game 20 times selecting all characters. Still nothing. How much still should i play?

3994

You have 2 options, either a) let the game run nonstop for a month like I did for my arcade board that I purchased or b) download some cheats and unlock them that way. But I donā€™t remember if thatā€™ll save, so you might need to redo the code every time you play (or set up a save state and load up the state every time).

I canā€™t remember exactly how long it took, but it should have been like 400 hours, maybe 600.

3995

thanks. Leaving it for 400 hours i out of question. Im playing in computer. Do u have mame cheat because i have searched the internet for the stfex2plus cheat but no luck.
Thanks for your help shinji

3996

Well first it should be sfex2p as thatā€™s what the rom is named. Doing a search on that came up with this xml code


:sfex2p:00100001:1FAF0030:0000FFFF:FFFFFFFF:Unlock Secret Characters:You need to reset the game to see any effect after set this cheat
:sfex2p:00110001:1FAF0034:0000FFFF:FFFFFFFF:Unlock Secret Characters (2/2)

which someone then translated to this



<cheat desc="Unlock Secret Characters"> <comment>You need to reset the game to see any effect after you've enabled this cheat</comment>
	<script state="on">
	  <action>maincpu.pd@1FAF0030=0000FFFF|(maincpu.pd@1FAF0030 BAND ~0000FFFF)</action>
	  <action>maincpu.pd@1FAF0034=0000FFFF|(maincpu.pd@1FAF0034 BAND ~0000FFFF)</action>
	</script>
  </cheat>

cheat on google for mame cheats, the top link should be pugsyā€™s cheats database on retroroms, download that and open it up. There should be a zip or 7z file called cheat, unzip that and look in the folder for a sfex2p.xml, edit that file by pasting this code in. Rezip the file back to cheat.7z or cheat.zip, put that in your main mame directory (where the mame.exe is in). Start up mame, edit the options for mame to allow for cheats and start up the game. Press <tab> which should open up a menu, go down the the ā€œcheatsā€ section and turn on the code. reset the game via f3, and you should be good to go.

unless the code itself is faulty, that should work.

3997

i have done all thatā€¦But i cannot see the cheats when i press tab. I have put the cheat.zip in mame folder.

3998

did you activate cheating?

Go into Options, then Default Game Options, Miscellaneous, and check the box for ā€œenable game cheatsā€.

3999

yes sir i did it! :stuck_out_tongue: still cant see cheat when i press tab. For your information i copied this in xml file
<cheat desc=ā€œUnlock Secret Charactersā€>
<script state=ā€œonā€>
<action>maincpu.pd@1FAF0030=0000FFFF|(maincpu.pd@1FAF0030 BAND ~0000FFFF)</action>
<action>maincpu.pd@1FAF0034=0000FFFF|(maincpu.pd@1FAF0034 BAND ~0000FFFF)</action>
</script>
</cheat>

4000

in the cheat.zip file, when you open it up does it have any folders or are all of the files in the main directory of the zip?
