Neo CD Cheats using Front End

Post by ghost_wolves »

Hello,

When I launch a Neo CD game from the command line, like

mame neocdz -cdrm aof2

the game boots and cheats load perfectly.

However when I use a front-end, it loads the CHD file, not the folder (art of fighting 2.chd) and the cheats don't load.

I've tried renaming the CHD, editing the neocd.xml, renaming the aof2.xml cheat file, etc.

I also can't find a way to get the front end to load the folder name and not the CHD itself. I don't think it's possible.

Any clue on how I can get the cheats to work with frontends?

Fixed: Had to use a special Software List loader for Launchbox someone had made.
