For the last few days I have been trying all different types of ways with the .chd files and directories. I know they are in the right directories or atleast I hope and I still can't seem to get either Mame to find area51.chd file. I have searched and searched and I can't seem to find the answer to the simple question if it is even possible to emulate Area 51 on either Mame yet or a different emulator. Thank you in advance.

mameox or 128plus cannot use chd's roms.

only the rom zip's we all know and love.

area 51 works in pc mame you just have to set it up correctly
BTW the psx port of area 51 works in coinops

Coinops doesnt have light gun support yet though does it? I just want to be able to play it with a light gun

for years there was an issue with lightgun support in the arcade side of coinops i hear thats recently been fixed
but regarding the playstation port of area 51 im not sure if lightguns would work for psx games in coinops if i hear that they do then ill post and let you know

update:: there is no lightgun support in pcsxbox the playstation emulator so its a no go for area 51 using lightguns on the xbox

Appreciate the help thanks.

wasn't the light gun fix like this: set it in mameox then move a file to c***o**?

cbagy found that right?

well im not touching that one although i mind cbagy telling me about it a while back anyway im sure i read in one of the recent coinops 3 releases R10 that lightgun support had been fixed not bothered myself either way as i dont have any lightguns plus i prefer to play gun games like operation wolf using my gamepad in final Burn Legends
