Zinc Gamebase:

It's all to do with the correct command line for each game.

ZiNc uses the "game number" to load on the command line,
not the "game name"
example xevious = 40

then it requires the renderer config file and renderer file to be set.

renderer.cfg
d3d_renderer.znc

here is a sample GB setup with xevious.
each game has been configured with the same gfx renderer.

i have tried your GB and works.
i tried to make my GB like your and don't works.

i have used your zinc.txt script..but when i lauch the game, don't start.
in the gamebase i have inserted game in order ID so any games now have real number: Star Gladiatro is 1, Star Gladiator 2 is 14..
but nothing..

however i'll use your GB...at least this works..

so i have only to add the games

I tried the Zinc gamebase and added the missing roms files and it works a treat. The games are awesome and i just need the missing screenshots now.

the game number has been added to the Gemus.
if you press f2 over xevious, you will see...
NAME=40

the script reads that NAME VALUE and add this to the command line.

Add_CLP(40 --use-renderer-cfg-file=renderer.cfg --renderer=d3d_renderer.znc

which is the same as typing this from the command prompt in DOS.

zinc 40 --use-renderer-cfg-file=renderer.cfg --renderer=d3d_renderer.znc

Has the Zinc gamebase been done yet?

Seiya · Wed Jun 22, 2011 4:35 am

yes..zinc works thank to .mad script and file.
and database is ready.
i have to make screenshots.

but this is my personal database, because .mad has post a link with all file to make a good zinc database for everyone.

I have the MAD version of the gamebase and all the roms too, just need the screenshots.

Will anyone release it ?

I dont see the point of creating a gamebase and not sharing it with everyone, i have personally created lots of them and share them all.

i only uploaded the setup to help Seiya make the gamebase.

my version is identical to the upload above (no screens).
but i do have the ROMs included.

i can upload them if you want, and snap the few screens for the games if Seiya does not want to make it.

hardmanm · Mon Jun 27, 2011 2:36 pm

Would be good if you could do the screenshots and upload them

i have no time to make it..
i have so many things to do, so i don't know how to start or what to finish

now i start gamegear, with usa and euroepan roms and to make the screenshots.
i have all screenshots of usa and european rom megadrive and i want to finish it.
maybe 1 year...or maybe never..

now i have to re-make my youtube video about amiga demoscene 1996.
