Lauren Tyler Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I've downloaded the ROMs but it still says 'cliffhgr' not found. What's the situation here? Do I need to download the laserdisc ROMs as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have both the ROM and CHD files? The CHD should be uncompressed in a directory of the same name (within the MAME ROM folder). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 What's the CHD? I'm not sure I know what those are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.E.R.O. Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 What's the CHD? I'm not sure I know what those are. Yup, those are basically the laserdisc roms. You're looking at downloading a couple of gigs, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're looking at downloading a couple of gigs, at least. A couple?? Try 13 gigs at least compressed! 38 gigs uncompressed!

Lauren Tyler Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 I saw the Laserdisc ROMs on another website, but when I unzipped them, they didn't work for some reason. Then again, there were five of them. I'm guessing I'd either need the actual laserdisc or I'm SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 You downloaded it that quick? Now that is a speedy connection! Of course...the connection could have timed-out, leaving you with an incomplete archive An audit in MAME should tell you what the problem is.

Just so you know, CHD stands for 'compressed hard drive'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 The problem is, finding websites that actually have CHD files... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenegg Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Just so you know, Cliff Hanger emulation is not perfect. There's still a number of problems to be ironed out. If you're looking for a near perfect game experience, you might want to wait a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macdlsa Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) Old post... time time to refresh it Guys, let's leave DAPHNE do emulate LaserDisc based games and let Mame do all the rest, with only some (TWO) exception ! Maybe you don't know, but Daphne&Singe are continously updating... Please take a look !(TWO)= as you can see FireFox and Cube Quest are Mame's, 'cause they're not yet emulated on our Daphne... Hehe, Goemon says "... WORTHLESS object" after he defeated the heli Edited April 4, 2011 by macdlsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdlsa Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Ah... I forgot : Daphne's Cliffy, as the other 99% of the games emulated, is arcade perfect ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
