• Autofire.
• Memory card emulation.
• Zipped/unzipped game.
• Sound support.
• Music support (with mp3 tracks, using libmad).

Installation

Folder structure:

ms0
  |-PSP/
  |   |-GAME/
  |   |   |-NEOCDPSP/ (or any others directory since v0.5)
  |   |   |   |-EBOOT.PBP
  |   |   |   |-STARTUP.BIN
  |   |   |   |-loading.bmp
  |   |   |   |-logo.bmp
  |   |   |   |-NEOCD.BIN (BIOS)

Games can be zipped or unzipped.

Music in mp3 format have to be in a "neocd.mp3" subfolder.

Example:

ms0
  |-PSP/
  |   |-GAME/
  |   |   |-NEOCDPSP/ (or any others directory since v0.5)
  |   |   |   |-MetalSlug
  |   |   |   |   |-mslug.zip
  |   |   |   |   |-neocd.mp3/
  |   |   |   |   |   |-Metal Slug - Track 02.mp3
  |   |   |   |   |   |-Metal Slug - Track 03.mp3
  |   |   |   |   |   |-Metal Slug - Track 04.mp3
  |   |   |   |   |   |-...
  |   |   |   |   |   |-Metal Slug - Track 20.mp3

You can uncompress the zip file for faster loading time.

MP3 Tracks have to finish by the "tracker number.mp3"

• "mslug-02.mp3" is good.
• "02-mslug.mp3" is wrong.

Screenshots

Known issues

Emulation isn't perfect (lack of technical documentation for the neogeo cd):

• So no sound/no music in some games.
• Sometimes music is stopped when putting game in pause (pressing select/start) and not resumed when resuming game.

Some games won't work at all.
