Sega Mega LaserDisc Games Playable On Ares!

[Mack1234]

Thank you very much, it works perfectly.

[Mack1234]

Working with PCLauncher and the bats, but could you make the rocketlauncher module that was uploaded on the first page work so that they work with the same data order as in the new bats so that they work in the nightly version? Because I want to put bezels on it, thanks.

I uploaded here the bezel that I made for the system

in the Ares.ahk I would assume you need to change the following lines.

Add (SEGA PAC) and (NEC PAC) to section below... maybe after Sega Mega LD
MSystem := [MSystem := ["Arcade","Atari 2600","WonderSwan","WonderSwan Color","Pocket Challenge V2","ColecoVision","MSX","MSX2","PC Engine","TurboGrafx-16","PC Engine CD","TurboGrafx CD","SuperGrafx","My Vision","Nintendo Entertainment System","Famicom","Famicom Disk System","Game Boy","Game Boy Color","Game Boy Advance","Super Nintendo Entertainment System","Super Famicom","Satellaview","Nintendo 64","Nintendo 64DD","SuFami Turbo","SG-1000","Master System","Mark III","Game Gear","Mega Drive","Genesis","Mega CD","Sega CD","32X","Sega Mega LD","ZX Spectrum","Neo Geo AES","Neo Geo MVS","Neo Geo CD","Neo Geo Pocket","Neo Geo Pocket Color","PlayStation"]]

 

Then change this section

; Détection Mega CD 32X si le nom de la rom contient "32X"
If (InStr(romName, "32X")) {
    ; Mode hybride Mega CD 32X
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system=MegaCD32X --fullscreen"
} Else {
    ; Cas standard
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --fullscreen"
}
 

Change to 

; Détection LaserActive si le nom de la rom contient "(SEGA PAC)"
If (InStr(romName, "(SEGA PAC)")) {
    ; Mode hybride LaserActive (SEGA PAC)
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system "LaserActive (SEGA PAC)" --fullscreen"
} Else {
    ; Cas standard
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --fullscreen"
}
 

If (InStr(romName, "(NEC PAC)")) {
    ; Mode hybride LaserActive (NEC PAC)
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system "LaserActive (NEC PAC)" --fullscreen"
} Else {
    ; Cas standard
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --fullscreen"
}

You might be able to put the second part as an Elseif, then Else { ;cas standard..
i think you would then need to put (SEGA PAC) and (NEC PAC) in your rom names for each type of game. (hyperion (SEGA PAC).zip) and (Demon Judgement (NEC PAC).zip)

 

I havent used Hyperspin/rocketlauncher in a while so I might be wrong. I am using launchbox.

It didn't work for me, thank you so much

[maabus19]

@Mack1234

did it used to work? 

 

if so, try everything as it was, and just change this part 

 

from 

; Détection Mega CD 32X si le nom de la rom contient "32X"
If (InStr(romName, "32X")) {
    ; Mode hybride Mega CD 32X
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system=MegaCD32X --fullscreen"
} Else {
    ; Cas standard
    params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --fullscreen"
}

 

to 

params := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system="LaserActive (SEGA PAC)" --fullscreen"

 

then test with hyperion


Oh i forgot the = after system in my previous post... try putting in the = sign with what i said above.

en el Ares.ahk asumiría que necesita cambiar las siguientes líneas.

Agregue (SEGA PAC) y (NEC PAC) a la sección a continuación... tal vez después de Sega Mega LD
MSystem := [MSystem := ["Arcade","Atari 2600","WonderSwan","WonderSwan Color","Pocket Challenge V2","ColecoVision","MSX","MSX2","PC Engine","TurboGrafx-16","PC Engine CD","TurboGrafx CD","SuperGrafx","My Vision","Nintendo Entertainment System","Famicom","Famicom Disk System","Game Boy","Game Boy Color","Game Boy Advance","Super Nintendo Entertainment System","Super Famicom","Satellaview","Nintendo 64","Nintendo 64DD", "SuFami Turbo","SG-1000","Master System","Mark III","Game Gear","Mega Drive","Genesis","Mega CD","Sega CD","32X","Sega Mega LD","ZX Spectrum","Neo Geo AES","Neo Geo MVS","Neo Geo CD","Neo Geo Pocket","Neo Geo Pocket Color","PlayStation"]]

 

Luego cambie esta sección

; Détection Mega CD 32X si le nom de la rom contient "32X"
If (InStr(romName, "32X")) {
; Modo híbrido Mega CD 32X
parámetros := """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system=MegaCD32X --fullscreen"
} else {
; Cas parámetros estándar
:= """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --pantalla completa"
}
 

Cambiar a

; Détection LaserActive si le nom de la rom contient "(SEGA PAC)"
If (InStr(romName, "(SEGA PAC)")) {
; Parámetros híbridos de modo LaserActive (SEGA PAC)
:= """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system "LaserActive (SEGA PAC)" --fullscreen"
} else {
; Cas parámetros estándar
:= """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --pantalla completa"
}
 

If (InStr(romName, "(NEC PAC)")) {
; Parámetros híbridos de modo LaserActive (NEC PAC)
:= """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --system "LaserActive (NEC PAC)" --fullscreen"
} else {
; Cas parámetros estándar
:= """" . romPath . "\" . romName . romExtension . """" . " --pantalla completa"
}

Es posible que pueda poner la segunda parte como un Elseif, luego Else { ; estándar CAS..
Creo que tendrías que poner (SEGA PAC) y (NEC PAC) en tus nombres de rom para cada tipo de juego. (hyperion (SEGA PAC).zip) y (Demon Judgement (NEC PAC).zip)

 

No he usado Hyperspin / lanzacohetes en un tiempo, así que podría estar equivocado. Estoy usando launchbox.

Can you share the images?

Hi Friends, here is the modified module for rocketlauncher. It was a syntax error. Ares need to have the system name first, then the rom name. In the script, it was in the wrong order. I use two differents systems (Sega Mega LD and NEC Pioneer LaserActive) so I don't need to modify the roms names. But if you want all the games in one system, you'll have to modify the roms names: add (SEGA PAC) or (NEC PAC).

This module work with Sega CD 32X too (just a few games)
